I have FMS 4 and using AS3, no matter what I do I can't get any of my recorded FLVs to play in FLVPlayback.

Is there somethign I'm supposed to install on FMS to get it to play properly?

WHat should  my path be? I've been told that the flv are living in the fms/applications/storyvideos/streams/videos folder.

I've tried every combination of paths I can think of.

HELP!

    First of all are you sure that there is application named "storyvideos" and the flv files are there in "streams/videos" folder under "storyvideos"?

    I think above would be first thing to check.

    Now assuming they are there - can you tell me what URI are you using in FLVPlayback?

    If files are there then you source or contentPath should be like this in FLVPlayback

    "rtmp://serverURI/storyvideos/vidoes/<filename>"

    Hi, thanks for the response.

    I still haven't got them playing yet.

    I have an application named "storyvideos" in FMS. I've made a new instance named "flv" so I can start fresh and see if I can get down to the bottom of this.

    So, the connection URI to connect to the net connection is therefore : rtmp://{www.server.ca}:1935/storyvideos/flv

    The name of my flv is: 1_4d8ca67009780.flv

    Should that mean my 'source' path ( it doesn't have a "contentPath" property) should be rtmp://{www.server.ca}/storyvideos/flv/1_4d8ca67009780.flv ? Should it have "streams" in there somewhere?

    What does the ":1935" mean in the connection uri mean? It's the only way I could get the NC to connect correctly. Does it need to be in the 'source' path too?

    I read in some older posts that "main.asc" needed to be installed on the FMS for this to work? Is that still needed? Where does it need to be installed exactly?

    *So confused*

    Thanks!
