I am currently using progressive downloads but need to switch to flv. I been having a hard time getting this to work.

I can run the samples that that are provided and even add my own video in the vod/media forlder and play them but thats about it...everything else fails..

Jumping ahead.
I have users uploading FLV to my site, how do I get these files into the FMS directory when they are on the webserver..

honestly, I dont even know if im making any sense here, I need some sleep

    I believe that your streams are by default stored in the /<application>/streams directory. So if your app is called 'videoPlayer' your streams reside in videoPlayer/streams.

    You can change your storage location in your Application.xml file using the <storageDir> tag. You can read more in the docs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flashmediaserver/3.0/docs/flashmediaserver_config_admin.pdf

    As for uploading, you'd need to set your web server to receive or move uploaded files to the stream storage directory, whether that's the application default or the one you set in the Application.xml file. This assumes that FMS is running on the same box as the web server.
