| Oops, sorry about that I forgot the comma in my command play(streamName, -2, -1, true). The syntax I'm using there is the full syntax for the play command. The first parameter is obviously the stream name to play. The second is the start parameter. A -2 will first try to play a live stream, if that fails it will play a VOD stream, and if that fails it will wait for a live stream to begin. The third parameter is the length of the material to play and a -1 value will play until there is nothing left to play. The final parameter is used for creating dynamic playlists with FMS so I'm not sure if it's implemented in Red5 but the default value is true. I've always passed all the parameters as shown above even though most are default values simply because it's easier for me to make changes to my code.
Hope that helps out a bit.

can someone tell me what the proper way to initiate a VOD stream to my understanding its this
play(streamName, 1)
as it gets the streamnotfound message perfect but no metadata sent !
please advise.

any ideas ?
