I’m trying to progressivly playback a flash movie (.flv) through the MediaPlayback component. Everything works fine locally on my machine but when I upload the flv never appears in the player. I’ve been searching all day but nothing has helped - any else have a similiar problem or input I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Your hosting doesn’t have .FLV extension added. Call them and tell to add FLV mime type.
