Hello everyone,

I am working on a player that will streaming all supported formats from FMS 3.
For the most part .mov and .mp4 was easy (like flv but you need a prefix of like
rtmp://111.111.111.111/av1/mp4:v1/test.mov (or /test.mp4)
What I have not gotten to work has been 3GP, 3G2, or M4V yet - anyone done work in this area
Thanks

    yes, In case of VOD H.264 , the stream name has to be prefixed by mp4: and also suffixed by the file extension (whatever it may be e.g. .avi .mov etc).

    For live stream, the stream name will be exactly the same as published by the publisher.. (say FME 2.5)

    FLVCheck.exe that comes with FMS3 to know whether a video file is compatible with FMS3.

    Yes - That what I have been doing but know one seem to have an answer for 3gp, 3g2 and all the others (I already know how to deal with mp4, mov, & flv).

    Thanks anyway

    Frankly speaking, FMS 3 supports H.264 Part 10 as one of the video codec and AAC/Mp3/nellyMoser as audio codecs...

    So, as long as the media files are encoded using supported audio video codecs, there will be no problem.

    another requirement is that the file's container format should be Mp4.. which is what used by most of the .Mov & 3GP files.

    hope that I have not mistaken with facts.. :).. I guess there are many sites having details og H.364 support in Flash player (& FMS)

    The files I am testing with (3g2, 3gp, etc) all play fine in QT and the mp4 & .mov have worked well. What I am not sure is do I need a prefix of mp4: (or something else) like I do for .mov & .mp4. I will check if the problem is the audio part. Have you done any real streaming with these format? I am hoping to hear what other folks have done to really stream these format.

    Thanks
