Eric,
I suggest the working examples that ship with Wowza here:
[wowza-install-dir]/examples
Check out the simplevideostreaming example, open the FLA file with Flash, go to the layer 1 actionframe, and look for the NetStream and NetConnection, and how to connect and play videos. It’s all working already in these examples and you can modify them and use them.
Richard
Thanks.
I had already gotten the simplevideostreaming example to work. I was able to select the Layer 1 in the simplestreamingvideo.fla file, and to open the Actions Window. There I was able to find some entries that used NetStream, but none that looked anything like this:
ns.play(“somestream”,10,20);
Did the author mean “nsplay”?
The following looked a bit like it might be related, since the comment above it indicated it’s about playing a video. I don’t see how this relates to the suggestion above, though.
nsPlay.seek(timecode);
I think the problem I have is that this simplevideostreaming example is actually quite complex. I appreciate that the market for Wowza in the past has been for technical professionals, but I don’t want to become a Flash guru, I just want to play clips from our vast collection of long-tail Knowledge Management videos. Could I beg someone to create a REALLY, REALLY, REALLY simple (“hello world” level) example of playing a video from a defined time?
Thanks!!
