new FLVPlayBack component and RTMP protocol

Question

hi all

I'm using "FlvPlayBack" component that ships with Flash 8 to
play a bunch of FLV's from an XML file. According to the
documentation (given that my component on the stage is called X), I
can do:
 
 X.contentPath = "rtmp://server/foo/bar.flv";

and i should be set. The problem is that the above doesn't
work

now the same program works if i feed it an XML with paths to
local FLV files (instead of over RTMP protocol) -- also I can
stream the files using Netconnection/Netstream combo

it's only when i do

X.contentPath = "rtmp://server/foo/bar.flv";

that i get into probelm

Did you configure the FMS properly? Did you put the main.asc file in the application folder (check out this link: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00003495.html).

Try to debug the issue. Start with FMS administration console and check if you get any incomming connection.

If no, make sure your can access the "server" domain.

If yes, check you have placed the files in the application folder as needed.

Check the logs from the FMS.

If still not working post some more details. My bet goes with the main.asc which handle the connection with flvplayback component.
