Question

VOD FLV to iOS via HTTP

I have a large collection of FLV video files.

I can stream them perfectly via RTMP.  I converted one with the offline converter and the resulting f4f file I am able to stream but not to iOS.  I get an error on the iPhone when trying to view the video.

I also tried with a FLV file saved from FME.  Again I could convert to f4f offline and stream that file but again in iOS it errors.

What would the best method of delivering my FLV collection to iOS?  Do they need to be converted?  Why does the converted file not stream?

Can you save local FLV files with FME and then VOD them to iOS?

Pretty much the only file I've been able to stream to iOS is the sample files that come with FMS.

Please help!

    One other crutial bit of info that may be the lightbulb for someone to help.

    The sample .f4v files play fine with:

    http://localhost/vod/sample.f4v

    If I create a .f4f file with the f4fpackager (from a .flv), I rename it to a .f4v file and then I must use this:

    http://localhost/hds-vod/myfile.f4v.f4m

    How do I create a regular VOD-able f4v file from my catalog of .flv's?
