Got it sorted – i used the name of my stream – however, there are three dots going across the player while i’m streaming (?)
just to clarify further – i am able to stream and view the stream in the provided “oflaDemo” that comes with Red5 – i am also able to stream using an embedded player on a regular HTML page – but can’t get it to work for WordPress
I’m using Red5 for RTMP streaming – i’ve got my stream working with the regular version of Flowplayer, but i’m having trouble getting it to work in WordPress. Forgive my ignorance, but there is one very important concept that i am not grasping.
Regarding the format “rtmp://xxx.xx.xxx.xxx/folder/folder/sample.mp4” – the first part is the RTMP stream and the second part is the path to the file – but what i am not understanding is: If i am ‘creating’ the stream live (ie – dj’ing live) – how can i have that FLV file already sitting on my server – does that make sense? In other words, how can i provide a path to an FLV file that has not technically been created?
