Question

Multicastplayer.html that ships with FMS4 ???

The player that ships with FMS4 seems to be the only player that works for IP Multicast in FMS4.

Does anyone know where it's source code lives? I've tried RealEyes and StrobeMedia sample players but those are not working on a Mac

The multicastplayer.html lives here:

<fms installed directory>\\Adobe\Flash Media Server 4\tools\multicast\multicastplayer

This plays on mac and pc fine.

thanks

    Hello,

    An Adobe Cookbook recipe has been posted with links to the source code.

    You can find the recipe here:

    Thanks Brad for posting the source code link.

    But both this multicast player and the multicast player that ships with FMS 4  will not playback on a Mac either in FF 3.6 or Safari 5. Works fine on  PC FF 3.6 and IE 7/8.

    The Mac is running OS X 10.5.8, 2Ghz Inel Core 2 Duo. has Flash 10.1.0 installed. The player loads but just says "Waiting For Video"

    Anyone know why?
