Hey Nathan. I know this wasn't directed to me, but how long were you waiting for the .meta file to show up? I have a 322mb FLV here and I thought it'd died, but it just took a while for the .meta to show up (the only time I've had it fail outright is with an invalid FLV, which renders the entire connection dead until restart).
I'm using an app I wrote that waits for the onMetaData event and I'm running rev 1781 (with modified FLV classes to allow cue insertion) Jason Nathan P.
