I am new to using flash media server. I setup the server and using the default player for the live stream and when I am not broadcasting I want to display an image instead of the black box that comes up till I start the live broadcast. Is there away to have it pull an image when I am not streaming?

    Hi,

    When you said you are using the default player, did you mean the livetest.swf inside <fms-install>\applications\live ?

    If so then that cant be modified since it has only .swf file. You may have to write custom client side player (swf file).

    And also do you want to display any image or the last frame of the video before it stopped?

    From what I can tell I am using the  swfs/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf I tried to make my own player, but that failed badly.I would like it to display our logo and say Offline that way any one conneting know it is working and we are just offline at that time. If I need to make a new player to make this work, how would I do this or can I modify the current player? or is there one somewhere out there that I can just modify?
