Phil, Even if you find an IP camera that encodes straight to FLV, Flash Player does not support peer-to-peer (though maybe someday it will). SWFs can talk to servers. In the absence of a server in the architecture, I am having a hard time seeing any way for SWFs to find and talk directly to the

You can attach a camera to Flex and stream video - I'm sure your camera is quite a bit more sophisticated than your typical webcam though Livedocs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html? content=Working_with_Video_18.html Hope this helps! :D --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Phil

Thanks Nathan. Problem is, camera is not attached to computer with the Flex app. I want one of 10 Flex apps around the Intranet to be able to attach to any camera's stream, and I don't want to use FMS. I have looked high and low and can't find a camera that puts out FLV. And from what I gather

My only suggestion would be to look into the messaging service. I don't know that that will solve your issue though - but there are examples around which show how to create a video conferencing application using Flex messaging service. Otherwise you may be stuck with having to use FMS (or

ya u can use video display , but if your using fms/rtmp combination it is better to use Video object then attach netstream to it. It will give more control to functionality / interactivity and offcourse errors. It is good idea to control the played video form FMS server side using streams instead

Bummer. Unexpected conclusion. I guess I'll have to look into another approach that doesn't require flashmedia for now. Thanks. Don --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Samuel R. Neff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The only way to stream MP4 video to Flash Player is through Flash Media Server.

Hi Don, For video in Flex/Flash there are three options: streaming, progressive embedding. For true streaming, Sam is correct that the only natively supported option is with FMS. That said, however, for end users the fast start time of progressive downloads generally is indistinguishable from
