Question

Unable to stream SMIL files unless the html page, swf file and the smil ffile are on the FMS server.

When I place the .swf, smil and http files on the FMS server the SMIL stream test sample works fine

But When I move the files to my web server I get Connection error.

This is the same issue discussed in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/554107

I added a ‘base’ variable but it did not work for me.

The SMIL file has the correct path to the sample files and FMS server

     <meta base="rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/" />

I am able to stream files from my html file on my webserver not the FMS server by pointing to the FMS server at rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/mp4:sample1_1500kbps.f4v

Is this a domain security setting? If so, where do I change it?

If not How do I get FMS to stream SMIL files without installing a webserver with FMS?

Thanks,

    Hi,

    I think there is bug with that videoPlayer.swf which is used by index.html of webroot folder of FMS to play media files, its not able to parse smil file correctly. I used some other player and used the smil file and kept it on http server other than fms server so it was able to dynamically stream videos. So I would suggest you to create your own player which uses smil file. You can take help from the below link to create player:
