How can I push streams being put onto my FMS to a CDN? Do I have to edit an asc file? Where does that file need to go? Thanks for any help.

    Check out the NetStream class in the Server-Side ActionScript Language Reference:

    Short answer: You cannot push to a CDN, only pull. And that's tricky if you can't upload your own custom .asc code - most CDNs won't allow it.

    Good news: FMS3 adds a new Netstream object on the serverside (previously we only had the Stream object without publish method) and that allows you to push a stream to a CDN or any other FMS box for that matter.
    Ask your CDN of choice how quickly they will roll out FMS3 and once they do you're all set.
