You can sure use RED5 but if all you need to do is play the video, setting up and maintaining a server might be a lot of work. Look into multiple FLV file playing. It plays a list of FLV files seamlessly, but it has many advantages.
I know it's been done but I'm quite sure the source hasn't been released. I was thinking of developing one myself but haven't found the time yet. On 3/15/07, Cedric Muller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hello, I have FLV files that are being downloaded by a java client from the web to a local disk. On my local machine, I have a SWF loading that local downloaded FLV. It works great ... but here comes that awful heartbeat again: How can I handle 2 gig FLV files ? Is there a way ?? Must I use RED5 in order to 'stream' the FLV locally ? (the best option I come up with right now) I did tests, and a 2 gig FLV is a sure problem when played locally ... I am just and plainly seeking ideas and help Naively, I thought the OS would handle this case ...of course it doesn't, because it depends on the computer's capacity to load a 2 gig FLV in memory ...which is quite weak normally .... Thanks in advance for any pointers, Cedric
