Simulate Streaming camera's using an flv?

Question

I have an application that has eight camera feeds. I have one
file that loads all four cameras and publishes them to the flash
media server. For testing of my user interface it is not possible
to have all cameras. I am wondering if there is a way to take eight
pre recorder FLV files and publish them up to the flash media
server. Then my interface could still look at the URL and see
simulated data for each camera. This would increase our testing
speed a ton!

Thanks for any suggestions.

Sure. You would upload the .flv files to the streams directory of your application. Then, you would either:

1. Have the client connect directly to that media -or-
2. Create a stream on the server, connect the client to that stream, and then have the server play the media over the newly created stream.

Now... given that you want to play these videos back to simulate a conference, keep in mind that you will never get them to play back in syc with each other. That might not be a consideration for your purposes, but I figured I'd mention it.
