I have a similar problem, but I CAN get an FLV to work just fine. However when I load an FLV onto a streaming server (hosted by limelight who uses the Flash media server) I CAN get it to work via HTML and some scripts, but when I use Captivate's streaming media option it does not work. I get a blank. I don't see it in the preview, the slide, when I publish it and look at it locally or when I publish it to the web.
I have tried this with Captivate 3 and 4.
The settings/screen I am using are:

I've not tried to implement an FLV from a server different from where the CP file is located... All implementations so far have been FLVs located in subfolders of the published CP project, and no streaming service.
However, one issue we've found pretty consistently is if the published file is accessed over HTTPS (SSL). If so, there are more-strict permissions on the server, though unfortunately I don't know specifics.... Point being, if your CP project plays the FLV correctly on a 'normal' server but does not on a different, more specialized server or setup (i.e. an LMS), look to see if there's any SSL involved and, if so, have the server folks examine the permissions/restrictions on the server folders to ensure they are, um, loose enought to allow serving the externalized FLV...

Hi,
No that isn't quite it. It is not a server issue in of itself. For example I CAN in Captivate, make a link to an HTML page, create an HTML page that loads the streaming video and then package the HTML page WITH the Captivate course and launch the captivate course and when I click on the link the video plays perfectly, it is just when I use the built in options in Captivate that nothing works when it comes to using a streaming FLV. I am at a loss as I've posted this problem before and have only seen others posting that they had the same problem.
Ideas???
