So the Flash front-end gets this path from the CMS, correct? If
that's the case, then in your Java application, you you then copy
the actual flv somewhere like so:
"FMS/applications/myApplication/streams/347/filename.flv"
That's one problem I have to overcome. The files that FMS would read
(or any streaming solution that can run alongside Tomcat) cannot be
copied to some 'streaming' directory. We're talking about hundreds of
hours of broadcast footage that need to be organized in a specific way.
The paths would need to be dynamically generated by the CMS and those
paths fed to the streaming server.
With the path you provided, you should be able to rip it apart in
Flash and build the correct FMS path from there. Does that help at
all? You shouldn't need to setup virtual paths at all. If you do
need to setup virtual paths, I believe the FMS has an admin service
that you could call from your Server-side AS to add those virtual
paths dynamically as needed.
I thought of doing some server-side AS but then I run into the
problem that each separate asset is contained in a separate folder
along with all it's transformations - thumbnails, 00:00:10 FLV
previews, storyboard jpg sequences, etc. I'd hate to have to add
virtual paths all over the place.
Anyhow, I think my question at this point is probably well OT for the
list so I'll see if I can find a FMS list or something where I can
pose the question. I've never used FMS (from an administrative
standpoint) so it'll be an interesting learning experience.
thanks for the help john.
