Question

subdirectories in webroot/vod

We currently have thousands of videos that we stream.  We are using the applications directory for this right now, but this doesn't allow iOS devices to get to the media, so we're moving some of our content (that we are ok having downloaded) into the webroot/vod folder.  Since we're serving thousands of videos, we're using different applications (folders) to organize them.  I need to be able to keep this same organizational structure intact in the new webroot/vod directory, but I can't seem to get subfolders within the webroot/vod folder to work.  I can link directly to the video, but cannot get Flash to play the video from there...

Am I just missing something very simple, or is it possible to have subfolders within the webroot/vod directory?  We're using Flash Media Server 3.5.

    Hi,

    Thanks for using FMS 3.5

    As you mentioned, to just remove any simple issues coming in, can you please let me know the folder structure and the URI that you used to connect and play the streams for a sample video , so that i could find if there is any problem with that.


    Sub folders under the vod directory are very much supported and it should be a matter of pointing to the correct directories for the playback to work.

    Also , i am little curious to know (if it is ok for you to tell), how are you planning to serve to iOS devices from FMS 3.5


    Thank you !
