Hi Daniel, In fact Server 2 is a web server located in a Kiosk. The Flex 2 App running at the Kiosk will have to show the movies on demand. So the movies will be downloaded from server 1 and stored on server 2.
Maybe a better solution would be streaming the files, but this can be too much expensive for the project budget to contract a streaming hosting service. Well thanks for you answer. I will download the files using the Flex App or any other development tool since FileReference cannot be used.
