Quick instructions for using the FLVPlayback components with Wowza Pro
-
Create the application folder [install-dir]/applications/mystreamingvideos.
-
Copy you content into the [install-dir]/content folder. For this example we will use the example video file Extremists.flv.
-
In the Flash editor, create an instance of the FLVPlayback component on the stage, open the component inspector and change the contentPath to rtmp://[wowza-ip-address]/mystreamingvideos/definst/Extremists.flv (where [wowza-ip-address] is the ip address of the server running Wowza Pro).
-
Select Control>Test Movie from the Flash menus .
Note: To play the H.264 content, add the prefix mp4: to the stream name. For example to play the example file Extremists.m4v use the contentPath rtmp://[wowza-ip-address]/mystreamingvideos/definst/mp4:Extremists.m4v (where [wowza-ip-address] is the ip address of the server running Wowza Pro).
