This FLV is just on our regular server at work. We do not have a Flash Communication server. I was messing around with some AS trying to get an FLV that I knew I had on Akamai using the path rtmp://cp22449.edgefcs.net/ondemand/ to play & had about given up when I noticed the file plays locally and on our server with just the FLV name below

```auto
 
stop();
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
my_video.smoothing = true;
my_video.attachVideo(ns);
ns.setBufferTime(5);
function play_func() {
 ns.stop("myVid.flv");
 ns.play("myVid.flv");
 
}
mc.onRollOver=function(){
 play_func();
 }
 
 mc.onRollOut = function():Void
{
 stop_func();

 }

```
