I am trying to capture the create session event while playing a VOD.

Playing from Web embeded flash player, I am NOT able to capture the onHTTPSessionCreate nor the onHTTPSanJoseStreamingSessionCreate.

however “onConnect” is working

This is also working: onHTTPCupertinoStreamingSessionCreate when connecting from iPhone

Any ideas. Below is my Application.xml

Thanks in advance

Larry

That is how it works. Flash connection is handled in onConnect

Larry,

Are you using a player that takes one string containing connection and stream name?

Try with SimpleVideoStreaming or JW Player or Flowplayer, where rtmp connection and stream name are separate.

Server: rtmp://server.com/test1/vod?v=eUXCq6P3FNgPL4GtB&cid=0&e=1315330089&h=dad23 7e230728d91d

Stream: mp4:sample.mp4

Ok… Thanks for the reply Richard,

I can live with that as long as I can get the query string… It is coming as empty string. Any ways to get those value.

URL specified on Flash: :

rtmp://server.com/test1/vod?v=eUXCq6P3FNgPL4GtB&cid=0&e=1315330089&h=dad237e230728d91d

These are the values i am getting on onConnect:

Uri: rtmp://server.com/test1

ipAddressClient: XX.XXX.18.209

queryStr:

Thanks

Richard,

Actually I am doing an Alias remapping to my incoming video url.

I just noticed that there is a new interface IMediaStreamNameAliasProvider2. Earlier i was using the old IMediaStreamNameAliasProvider.

This has all the required information I am looking for like IClient, IHTTPStreamerSession, ILiveStreamPacketizer, RTPSession.

using these I am able to get the URLs, Querystring, IP etc.

Thanks for your help though.

Larry
