Example livestream file works - mine doesn't - how to pass flv values to browser?

[coskel22]

Hi all-

I have tested a live stream using the demo 10-connection version and the client/live.html example provided.

In a real-world test I would like to use the JW player and pass the values so that the end-user does not have to enter the rtmp server and the stream name.

The code I am using is:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<div id="player">Test Flash server</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('player.swf','mpl','470','290','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('flashvars','&streamer=rtmp://[ipaddress]/livevideo&autostart=true');
so.write('player');
</script>

I have also tried rtmp://[ipaddress]/livevideo/myStream

but neither work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Look at this forum post:

I believe it should be:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<div id="player">Test Flash server</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('player.swf','mpl','470','290','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('flashvars','&streamer=rtmp://[ipaddress]/livevideo&file=myStream&autostart=true');
so.write('player');
</script>

Hi Charlie -

Thanks for the suggestion - I get an error in the flash browser screen:
404: Error#2032

UPDATE: I think I fixed it!

The change was on Jeroen's site:
add: so.addParam('type', 'video');

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<div id="player">Test Flash server - 2</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('player.swf','mpl','470','290','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('type', 'video');
so.addParam('flashvars','&streamer=rtmp://[ipaddress]/livevideo&file=myStream.flv&autostart=true');
so.write('player');
</script>
