Just wondering what is happening with this plugin, previously the 3.1.1 version was available to download, but that's since been taken down and the 3.1.0-dev version is on there. Is there a problem with the 3.1.1 version, should we be using it?

Seems like setPlaylist still isn't working, any news on when it may be fixed?

I think you'll find it works fine on a live stream - I may have been jumping the gun a bit on my previous post!

We have been running a stream using it in a live environment for several days and have had no complaints from users at all.

Unfortunately after a little more testing, it doesn't appear to be very stable at all. We're using it with the liverail plugin , I'm not sure if that's related though - it seems to randomly not connect to the stream (testing a live stream currently)

Thanks, that seems to be working fine for us.

Thanks Anssi, does this only work on the 3.1 version of the player, or can we use it with 3.0.7?

I think there's very little else that can be done from our or anyone elses end - Ajax is the only way to do it locally and pass the user's ip to highwinds but that won't work due to the fact it's cross site scripting.

The only way forward is to either allow the request to manually include the user's ip so it can be sent server side with that within the request or for flowplayer itself to support highwinds in the same way jw player does.

So in short, the ball's definitely back in your court!! :-D

Thanks for that Pascal / Chris.

We have implemented something similar at our end (using perl), it's ok for a temporary solution but both these solutions are server side, so are passing the ip of the server to yourselves so it's not ideal if the user is in a very different location to the server. At least it works for now though!

We looked at using Ajax as that would be able to pass the users ip to you, but we didn't find a way to make it work because of the fact it's cross site scripting.

What would be useful as a temporary workaround is the ability to pass the users ip within the smil request to your server. We could then capture that from the user and make the request server side including their ip, so you could use that ip to send back the best address for playback.

Any chance this can be implemented in the interim?

Thanks, I'm assuming there is no workround that you know of?

Thanks Chris, any idea on an eta - SimpleCDN removing some of their old services on April 30th has left us with a few problems.

Do you know of any temporary workarounds while the functionality is being built for flowplayer, we've been looking at using AJAX to grab the playlist data but haven't had any luck due to it being a cross site request.

Cheers

With SimpleCDN switching over to use highwinds for some of their streaming (including live streaming) it's pretty vital (for us at least) that flowplayer supports the smil format. Any chance this is going to happen (and quickly!)?

» OnUnload --> Load

Posted: Mar 22, 2009

Managed to do this, quite simple really!

onCuepoint: [900000, function(clip) {
this.unload();
this.load();

}],
