Hi All,

I have installed FMS 3.5 and made a video player which runs streaming video from vod directory as well as from my mapped directory(e:\myfiles\videos\). Its working fine. Now, i want to play video from a server through VOD service. I changed the VOD_DIR = " http://www.myserver.com/videos/" but its not working. Please help.

Thanks in Advance.

Amit

    To grab files over HTTP, you have to use the File plug-in. Flash Media Interactive Server has a C++ plug-in architecture that lets you extend the server. You may be able to edit the sample File plug-in to do what you want, or you can write a File plug-in from scratch.

    The sample File plug-in is installed here: Flash Media Server 3.5\samples\plugins\file

    The docs are here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashMediaServer/3.5_Plugin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a0d662434-7fe4.html

    And here:

    Hope that helps,
    Jody

    AFAIK, FMS doesn't support directory mappings over HTTP.
