[Red5] FlvPlayback

[Eric Pincus]

Thanks - I'll try that as a workaround - but it's really a workaround
for what I'm already using as a workaround.

 

What my main question is - which I've yet to get any word in is.

 

Can I how can use the FlvPlayback control to connect to an FLV hosted by
Red5?

 

The workaround is to use the video object - but do I need to use a
workaround at all - I'd rather just use the FlvPlayback control.

Hi Eric,

 

 

 

Try this very ugly code as workaround :-) 

paused = false;

function Pause (eventOj:Object){ 

            if (!paused) {

                        onEnterFrame = function () {

                                    my_ns.seek (my_ns.time);

                        }

            } else {

                        delete onEnterFrame;

            }

            paused = !paused;

}

Thank you - but I'm not sure how that applies.

 

The following code is working with the video object - but pause
functionality is awkward - restarting 5-10 seconds earlier than where I
pause it

 

var my_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

my_nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/oflaDemo");

var my_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(my_nc);

my_video.attachVideo(my_ns);

my_ns.setBufferTime(1);

my_ns.play("downtown.flv");

btnPause.addEventListener("click", Pause);

 

function Pause(eventOj:Object)

{

            my_ns.pause();

}

This is without the FlvPlayback control - with the video object and a
single button labeled btnPause.

I would PREFER to just just the FlvPlayback control using a skin so I
don't have to code for the various functions (play, pause, mute, volv)

Simply setting the contentPath of a FlvPlayback control to
"rtmp:://localhost/oflaDemo/downtown.flv" fails.

If I still need to use a NetStream object with the FlvPlayback control -
how do I wire the two together?

Thanks

Hi Eric, 

 

red5 needs the .flv extension for the NetStream.play Method:

 

FlashCom / MediaServer :   stream.play ("filename",...)

Red5: stream.play ("filename.flv",...)

 

bye

Hey all,

 

So what is the verdict on the FlvPlayback object within flash?

I can't get it to work with Red5.  I've seen a dozen questions on this
very subject around the net - but never an answer.

 

I know that with FMS - you need to have the main.asc file copied to the
application directory - that you need to have your media in the
streams\_definst_ directory, etc.

 

It works from FMS - but nothing from Red5.

 

All I'm trying to do is set up a simple flv streaming with FlvPlackback.

 

I've tried to set it up with a simple video object but when I use the
pause function - and then restart - the video drops back about 5-10
seconds.

 

Help if you can,

 

Eric
