haXe Forum > Remote access to flv is not working

• Dripstone Mar 15 at 10:33

  Hello, I am writing a simple flv player. I can load the swf from local file manager and play flv correctly. When I open swf from a web browser, it doesn't work.

  I tried the following steps:
  1. Compile swf with -D network-sandbox
  2. Put crossdomain.xml and flv file in root directory of localhost
  3. crossdomian.xml:
  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <cross-domain-policy>
  <allow-access-from domain="*" />
  </cross-domain-policy>
  4. Access remote flv using:
  stream = new NetStream(connection);
  ...
  stream.play("http://localhost/test.flv");
  ...

  Any help? Thanks!

  The connection should be null for static FLV files. Check your htaccess and make sure your server is configured to serve FLV files at all.

  I think it is null. I use the following code:
  var connection = new NetConnection();
  connection.connect(null);

  I can download the file if I open "http://localhost/test.flv" in browser. And I can play FLV files via wordpress.
