Hello All, I'm somewhat new to Red5, as well as video streaming in general, and I've been experiencing a problem that I can't seem to figure out. The problem is that a small percentage of our FLVs are hanging as a result of the buffer emptying, and not refilling and resuming the video. What happens is, when I trace the buffer length in my flash player, Red5 appears to be maintaining an acceptable buffer length for a period of time, and then all of a sudden the buffer diminishes to .001 and never recovers, causing the video to hang, and never resume. The weird part about this, is that it only happens when I have the setBufferTime() set to 5 or greater. When I set the buffer time to be below 5, everything is fine, and I have no problems. It seems kind of strange that a smaller buffer length is making the problem disappear. It would be easy enough to just set the buffer time in my flash player to something less than 5, but then there is a chance that slower connections will never be able to view the video. Could it be caused by the FLV, my flash player, or Red5? If there is any Red5 logs I can look at, I'm not sure where or how to get them. I'm currently running Red5 v0.6.2, and using oflaDemo. If I need to include the .FLA for my video player and the FLV, I would be happy to do that. I've included a link below where you can see what is happening. This particular video's buffer empties at about 7 seconds in and hangs. Like I mentioned above, I have setBufferTime() set at 5. http://media.lancasteronline.com/flash/streamed/smallscreen.php?id=110 <blocked::http://media.lancasteronline.com/flash/streamed/smallscreen.ph p?id=110> Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided here.
