Question

Viewing a Live Stream from FMS

I'm using the Adobe Flash Video Encoder to send a live flash video stream to my FMS 2 (Developer Edition) on a Windows 2003 R2 Standard Edition Server

I'm connected to FMS and the encoder IS sending the video. When I look at the FMS Console its confirmed that I'm connected and publishing a LIVE video.

I can't view the video, which I thought was going to be the 'easy' part.

I can't for the life of me figure out how to configure a flash .swf embedded in a web page to VIEW the video.

IT"S MADDENING. I'm a bright guy, but in my opinion FMS is very poorly documented when it comes right down to telling you HOW to make things work.

Any help is appreciated.

I'm good with Flash, but I come from a Windows Media Server background. This is my first foray into FMS.

    I have now been able to adapt an small tutorial applet I found so I can now 'see' the video! But the applet is not elegant.

    Any assitance with regard to the proper Actionscript to use to connect to and automatically play the stream is appreciated. I would also like to add the player controls.
