Hi,

Can someone explain to me what happens when I open a page containing
streaming media (a flash movie) in JMeter?

In a normal JMeter session I think you test something like (sort of) a
(string of) request - response combination(s). So each time JMeter goes to
the library (the request), it fetches a book (the response). With streaming
media however, you send JMeter to the library, then asks the librarian to be
read from the book. And if I am going to test what load the streaming media
server can support, I'm sending many persons concurrently requesting to be
read from the book. And to me, fetching a book is not so though as asking to
be read from the book.

Now back to JMeter. What if I have a thread group with 1000 threads, to be
started in 10 seconds, looping forever. 

Back to my question: If I test a connection with a streaming media server,
what do I do? Fetch 1000 books every 10 seconds, or request 1000 librarians
to read me a book every 10 seconds?

Abel
