I have a flv file that is being played and then after its finished another file with the same name has been recorded the problem is that when the new file is played if the browser window hasn't been closed then the old file gets played......How do I stop the browser from cacheing .flv??

    The only way I know of doing that is disabling the FLV cache or setting the timeout to a very low value... but that's a setting in server.xml, and I don't think the setting can be overridden at the adaptor or Vhost level (FMS engineers... please school me if I'm wrong there). Do you have any apps that benefit from caching videos (like a VOD app) running on the same FMS?

    No I don't have any VOD  that benefits from the cacheing i just have a camera and record system...the flv are being streamed from the instance folder. so i guess going into the xml file and changing the cache settings is my best solution.....don't know if that will be possible on a hosted account such as influxis but for develpment purposes it is fine thanks for your help.
