Streaming .FLV files from Media Server 4.5 using PHDS

i stream .flv files adobe media server 4.5.

 

requirements state files should considered secret, decided phds sounds the

right thing.

 

i able stream .flv placing in webroot/vod folder using url http://myserver/vod/test.flv

 

however developer manual states way enable phds @ server level uncomment 2 lines this.

 

<ifmodule jithttp_module>
<location /hds-vod>
    httpstreamingjitpenabled true
    httpstreamingcontentpath "../webroot/vod"
    jitfmsdirpath ".."
    options -indexes followsymlinks

# uncomment following directives enable encryption
# location.
   encryptionscope server
   protectionscheme phds
</location>
</ifmodule>

 

however not able stream flv using url http://myserver/hds-vod/test.flv

 

question : supposed use hds-vod in url or /vod doing same ?

                  approach correct, or should files go applications\myapplication\media folder ?

                  need server side actionscript validate access stream, possible without dedicated application ?

hi,

 

when use vod location directive you're using progressive download url : http://myserver/vod/test.flv

however, when use location directive hds-vod, http streaming, fragments created on fly. url needs : http://myserver/hds-vod/test.f4v.f4m

 

please note .flv files not supported http streaming (via hds-vod location directive). cannot use phds .flv files.

 

thanks,

apurva
