I’m working on a clients site who has set up FMS and sent me the url to the videos (rtmp://host.com/definst/video.flv) they want to show.
The video plays back through the FLVPlayback compnonent but I can’t get it to play through my custom player.
When I try to play it the NetStream.Play.Reset and NetStream.Play.Start events trigger but the video doesn’t play and my onMetaData function isn’t being called (onBWDone is being called). On the Play.Start event I start tracing out the NetStreams time property and it’s remaining at zero as well.
I’m guessing it’s a meta-data issue but I’m not sure if I’m missing something and since I didn’t set up the server and haven’t worked with a media server before I want to make sure I’m not missing anything on my end before I contact the client.
If any wise people out there could help it would be much appreciated.
Here are some snippets.
public function Connect(server:String=null):void
{
var client:Object = new Object();
client.onMetaData = function(metaData:Object){
trace(metaData.duration);
}
client.onBWDone = function(){
trace(“bwDone”);
}
_connection = new NetConnection();
_connection.client = client;
_connection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
_connection.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityErrorHandler);
_connection.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, onAsyncError);
_connection.connect(server);
}//fnct
private function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void {
trace(“Level:”+event.info.level+" Code:"+event.info.code);
switch (event.info.code) {
case “NetConnection.Connect.Success”:
openStream();
break;
case “NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound”:
trace(“Stream not found: " + _videoURL);
break;
case “NetStream.Play.Reset”:
//_stream.send(”@setDataFrame", “onMetaData”, metaData);
_stream.receiveVideo(true);
_stream.receiveAudio(true);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,traceStuff);
break;
}
} //end fnct
private function traceStuff(event:Event){
trace(_stream.time);
}
private function openStream(){
_stream = new NetStream(_connection);
_stream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
//_stream.client = this;
_stream.bufferTime = _bufferTime;
var video:Video = new Video();
addChild(video);
video.attachNetStream(_stream);
_stream.play(_videoURL);
}//end fnct
