Re: [Flashcoders] Playing big FLV files (locally) - where's the problem ?
if he's just talking about locally though i don't see the problem, he can just install red5 on the machine he wants to show the video on. it's pretty painless to install red5 and stream off the hardrive using that. pretty sure we all have it set up like that to test stuff... yeah red5 is for a lot more but it'll work so i don't see the problem for cedric to be honest, unless i've misunderstood of course ;) Ramon Miguel M.
