Hi guys and thanks or your fedback on displaying, lastholidayvideo through the plugins, unfortunately its not much use, if i cant stream audion as well. It will sond really asic, but my ps3 will do it. just by streaming the page, however i guess ths is down to the plugin. I actually run LHV, so if you tell me what i need to add to get the output plgin, ill have it developed.
I am also uploading DIVX how to videos to the site, so everything is in one place/
It's interesting that your site lets people download the FLV, so if you figure out the storage/naming convention, you could make an XML feed that provides the data source to feed into a plug-in.
For example: http://www.lastholidayvideo.com/slave/get_file.php?Kelly_Rowland_Work.flv
But, right now, Connected cannot transcode FLV's from a remote URI, but there are plans to support transcoding for plug-ins in the future.
If you have Firefox running with Flash support on your server/PC, you can get Flash video with NO AUDIO. Install this plug-in and you can see an example of what happens:
http://labs.divx.com/files/redirect.zpi
So it should play video from your site just fine, but no sound... feel free to change that extension to ZIP so you can unzip it and look at where the code is pointing... this should get you further along, I hope...
to display the page you simply need to put the address in a cpi file like this example:
But there is 2 problem, since that page has not been designed to receive the key vent from the remote, you will probably need to create a page that handle the key events and to display the other page in a iframe.
The other problem will be to play the video, as you probably know, the sound doesn't work yet from html plug-in :(
Keep up the good work :)
