I have EMS 3.5 installed and functioning. Need help with where to go next!

Hello All,

I am brand new to this and need a very basic push in the right direction.

I have FMS 3.5 installed on my server and I am ready to begin testing with it.

My website has a page with descriptions of videos and links to those videos.

When a link is selected, I want a new page to open and the video to play in the FMS player.

I have absolutely no idea how to go about this. I need some meaty information here. I read tom Green's tutorials, and although I found that they were informative, they are also quite general.

I have Flash Professional CS4 and I just need to know what the heck to do next.

Any and all help will be supremely appreciated.

Sincerely,

wordman

    You can start with documentation which comes with FMS. Go to root directory of FMS and then go to documention folder try some samples then you will get an idea how integrate them to your webpages to stream videos.

    Gentlemen,

    Thank you for the answers, I will definitely look into what you both suggested.

    My next step is getting a player into a separate page that plays selected videos through RTMP.

    The player that comes with FMS would be fine, but I do not know how to alter it, change colors, etc.

    Then I was looking into Real Eyes' REOPS player, and the white papers alone stopped me in my tracks. I realize it's probably easy, but now ehrn you are a novice, to understand it.

    Then I saw Adobe Strobe, the OSMF-based player and thought that might be good for me.

    The biggest problem I see is that Adobe's resources are not always easy to find on this website, same goes fo rthe OSMF site. Not very well structured sites for a software company.

    Bottom line is, I need to get a player on a page that plays though RTMP. Any thoughts there? I'm completely new to Flash.

    Thank you all!!!

    Sincerely,
