Hello -- does this month still look good for a 3.3 release with support for HTTP streaming in Highwinds?

Has this been released?

I see the plugin in google code, but not on the plugins page. Has it been released? Or is it built-in now?

Have you resolved the issue? If not, please do not hesitate to contact the NOC.

Hi Anssi,

The sample live streams that I sent you should still be running -- let me know if they're not, and I'll ask engineering to turn them back on.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Anssi,

I'll send you a link to an SD and HD test stream in a moment.

Hey Anssi,

This is great progress! I have three quick questions:

1. Where is the flowplayer-3.1.0.js file? I can't seem to find it, and don't see it being referenced in your sample.

2. What is the role of the href in the container? Your sample has it set to the FP sample video (http://player-e7.simplecdn.net/flowplayer.flv). Should this typically point to the FLV itself? Obviously in our case it will produce the SMIL, so what would you define as best practice here?

3. Have you tested this with a live stream?

Thanks,
Chris

Right -- doing it on the server side will obviously not produce a localized IP for the user, so you'll want to update this as soon as possible.

Which version of Dreamweaver are you using? The Flash plugin used within Dreamweaver 8 is an older plugin that is only supported when used within the CDS folder. I believe that the latest version supports SMIL by default but I haven't checked it personally.

Hello Brian,

Flowplayer doesn't support our playlists yet, but they are working on it. Take a look at the comments in thread:

Thanks Pascal. Ian, have you tried this code sample? Does it work for you?

We've looked at implementing this exact service in the past, but CDN release schedules generally run a few weeks as we need to do extensive QA before rolling out any changes. So, unfortunately this route wouldn't get you the functionality any faster. If it's an option for you I would suggest continuing down the AJAX route -- you should be able to get this to work. Where are you hosting your player?

There are some workarounds that I can think of but nothing clean that would cover all edge cases. The best route is to get proper support into the player itself -- I would suggest that you make a formal request to Ansii to ensure that he understands your need for urgency.
