Question
Loading an FLV into FMS using a URL Var??
I have a rather large inventory of user-supplied videos. Our
visitors upload their videos to our server and an ASP script sends
them to a com service and encodes them as FLVs. At the same time a
database entry is made from the submission and a filename is
generated and entered. A separate app serves up the videos based on
search criteria - dynamically from the database via a Cold Fusion
server (it pulls the filename out and inserts it dynamically into
the URL, when the user clicks on the file, the SWF loads the file).
Here's a link to the app that's live right now;
Everything works great except it's progressively played and we wish to switch to streaming format.
I'd like to keep the coding to a minimum and maintain my Coldfusion application which works extremely well. Is there a way I can subsitute the addressing from the http:// address to the rtmp:// address? In other words, all I wish to do is to modify the url to use rtmp:// and stream rather than download progressively.
I am not versed in actionscript, but I imagine there is a way I can create the SWF FLV player with the netstream stuff in it, and pull the FLV name from a URL parameter. Correct? If so, how do I do this?
Thanks
