I have about a Gig worth of FLVs that have been exported from final cut directly. These videos are for an online presentation that I will host on my “basic” host…
The compnay this is for have a streaming media server that can host the FLV for streaming purposes. I know that they must have:
- The FLV files
- main.asc file
I got from them the URL of the Streaming media server.
I plug in all of the info into dreamweaver:
Video Type: Streaming (and have put the FLVPlayer_Streaming.swf file on my host where the rest of the pages are)
Server URI: rtmp:// address that they gave me
Stream Name: (name of the FLV that will be played back)
Skin: (and have put the Halo_Skin_3.swf file on my host where the rest of the pages are)
Also uploaded the “Scripts” directory to my host as well… I have the latest flash player plug in installed…
but when I test the page nothing comes up…? Are the FLVs from Final cut not right?
The help file says the following:
“NOTE: For the video player to function correctly, the FLV file must contain metadata. FLV files created with Flash Communication Server 1.5.2, FLV Exporter version 1.2, and Sorenson Squeeze 4.0 automatically contain metadata.”
is this my problem? I would hate to have to re-export these videos - they took forever…
If you can offer any help - it would be greatly appreciated.
Look forward to any responses.
