Having real problems trying to find any tutorials or sites with relevant info about streaming video using the rtmp protocol. I can get it to work using the mediadisplay component in flash but would want to change the skin that is used… which after a bit of research is virtually impossible to do.

Writing a player from scratch is apparently the only way, which with partial download streaming wouldnt be a problem but how do i go about communicating with the stream like the mediadisplay? ? I don’t think NetStream and NetConnection are valid in this case.

any ideas anyone?
