FMIS 3.5.2 and multipoint publishing example problem

Hi there!
I`m completely puzzled with example from adobe.com.

I`m using FMIS 3.5.2 (windows xp) and was trying to make this example working http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashMediaServer/3.5_Deving/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a0773d56e-7ffb.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a0773d275-7ff2

When my flash media live encoder connects to 'livestreams/localnews' publishing point i got in logs:
CSAAACPI is connected
Sending error message: Method not found (releaseStream).
Sending error message: Method not found (FCPublish).
localnews is publishing into application livestreams/_definst_
Republishing the stream into "livestreams/anotherinstance"
Stream Status: NetStream.Publish.Start
The stream is now publishing

When i`m trying to connect to the "livestreams/localnews" with flash media player i can see the stream from my webcam but when i`m trying to connect to republished stream 'livestreams/anotherinstance' i got nothing.Player says "loading..." and shows nothing.

Here is my logs and main.asc http://pastebin.com/m652cb1ec

    Just to be clear, with "livestreams/localnews", 'livestreams' is the application name and 'localnews' is the stream name.  FMS assumes the default instance (_definst_).  Really the path is "livestreams/_definst_/localnews".

    When you republish to "livestreams/anotherinstance", 'anotherinstance' is the instance name, so the path is "livestreams/anotherinstance/localnews".  I'm guessing you didn't have the stream name (which is still 'localnews' in the new instance), so the player was confused.

    Thank you!

    Everything working now. I guess that was my missunderstanding of FMIS internal logic and leak of comments in example file.

    Now working like a charm.

    Hi ,

    I somehow dont see any issue with example and it should ideally wrok fine. I will try it my end and will get back to you.

    But one strange thing i find in your logs is :

    Your publishing happens to start at 10:45:37  indicated by logs from livestreams/_definst_ whereas logs of livestreams/anotherinstance  shows publshing has already begun at 10:35:41 , i really dont know how that is possible.

    Everything looks correct but the player i`m using cant show the stream i`m republishing.It shows "connecting" when i`m trying to get a stream from the point i`ve republished video to.

    I`m using adobe player from examples (stream video player with ability to test vod and live)

    I used your main.asc and publised stream by name "hello". I was able to subscribe it on both instances "_definst_" and also on "anotherinstance".

    I am assuming you mean videoPlayer from samples when you say "stream video player" from examples as I used the same and could not see any issue. (If you are using Videoplayer please dont forget to check "Live" check box each time before you click on "Play Stream" button.
