I am testing the video player Flex app over 'file:///C:/' but the Flash CS4 demo is technically on 'file:///C:/' as well. Both are in subdirectories of my desktop/document folder and both are trying to access the very same file over RTMP. Here's the official error from the video player:
--------- Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///C:/<...>/bin- debug/BaseFLVPlayer.swf cannot access rtmp://<...>/vod/. No policy files granted access. at flash.display::BitmapData/draw() --------- I think I'm going test the video player SWF online instead of on my desktop. I don't think it will help but I've got no other ideas at this point. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alex Harui <aha...@...> wrote: > > Are you testing this over http:// or file:// > > If file:// crossdomain.xml may not be in play. > > From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcod...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of jwebbsuccess > Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 11:50 AM > To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [flexcoders] Security sandbox violation on Bitmapdata.draw( rtmpVid ) despite crosspolicy.xml > > > Take a look at this video player; notice there is an image on screen > before the video begins playback: > > http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/01/14/obama-on-inauguration- > you_n_157881.html > > I'm trying to create similar 'preview frame' functionality in my own > custom-built Flex/AS3-based RTMP video player...
