Hi, I’m playing an FLV using rtmp, it plays fine and I can use the netstream seek call but when it reaches the end of the flv, the net connection gets closes, which is not what I want. Anyway to handle this? Thanks, Douglas ---

What player are you using? Richard ---

First, I would upgrade your Flash player. What you are running is very old. It may be because you are running inside of Flash CS3. I would install the most recent version of Flash player 10 and try it outside of the Flash environment. I did the following and it worked great for me: - Install Wowza 1.7.2 - Install the examples - Run the SimpleVideoStreaming example and click Play - Seek to close to the end and wait for the video to end ---

What video player, Wowza player, JW Player, FLow player, FLVPlayback component, something else? Richard ---

There is nothing about the Video object or reaching the end of video that closes the netconnection, so there is probably some code doing it, a NetStream.onPlayStatus handler function gettinig “NetStream.Play.Complete” then closing the netconnection possibly. Look for “NetStream.Play.Complete” and see if there is code that closes the netconnection following. Richard ---

No I don’t know. If you are developing your own player I suggest to take a look at the Wowza SimpleVideoStreaming player, in the wowza examples folder. I would use that as starting place or model. Richard ---

The suggestion to “get the latest Flash Player” means the latest Flash plugin: [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/](http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) And you can also use the latest version of JW player, which is a Flash app that plays videos. (it is confusing) Also, did you upgrade Wowza to 1.7.2? Richard ---

Yes, I was able to play Extremists.flv from your server and that app. But that means you have the wrong StreamType for this case. To do video recording you have to copy [wowza-install-dir]/conf/Application.xml to [wowza-install-dir]/conf/storydeckrecording/Application.xml then edit the new file, change /Streams /StreamType to “record”.

Also, you really should upgrade to Wowza 1.7.2. You are running 1.7.0: [http://stream.storydeck.com:1935](http://stream.storydeck.com:1935) > Wowza Media Server Pro10 1.7.0 build11414 This is a critical update because of changes in recent version of Flash Plugin (version 10.0.32.18) Richard ---

I tried it with the VideoRecording example, and it works, I am connecting to: rtmp://stream.storydeck.com/storydeckrecording [wowza-install-dir]/examples/VideoRecording/client/videorecording.html Connect, click record, then click stop, and you should see the recording playback. Richard ---

I looked at it. Seems okay. It played for 2 or 3 minutes. Richard ---

Reviewing the top of this thread, this seems like a player issue. Have you tried the SimpleVideoStreaming example player? Richard ---

With 1.7.2 you can only connect with Flash, not winamp does not work. Can you zip up your conf and log folders, and if you have a link to a player, send all to support@wowza.com Richard ---

I do have a handler for the complete status but that does not close the connection. It is not consistent but does appear to happen more frequently with large flv (such as the wowza Extreme flv ~4 mins) and I have not seen it with small flvs. I tried capturing seek.failed events (which happen when I explicitly disconnect) but that hasn’t uncovered any thing. Any ideas? Thanks, Douglas ---
