Play video with a Apache Flex web app
Hi all,
we're now committed to create a simple app that should play a sequence of
videos (provided from a web agency) and locally saved on the same computer
where the app is running: the app will be a AIR app installed on a PC
connected to a HD Video (obviously the app won't only play videos but we
have problems just on this part ;) )
Looking for how apache flex can help us in running this videos (

)
it seems that we cannot run directly the mp4 4k video file but we need to
convert in a flv format?? or something like this?
Is there someone that has already had to play a video on a Flex web app?
Thank you very much
Angelo

Hi,
You can also try "ffmpeg" (http://ffmpeg.org/)
1) Convert on PC via Command Line (Can launch via AIR):
ffmpeg -i video.avi -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 video.flv
2) Use PHP to convert on your server :

My "best" experience of playing videos, is to convert them to .flv files
with the Adobe Media Encoder
(I believe this is still free?).
Suggest you try that option.
If you continue to have problems and can reference a small video, I will
download it and have a look at the issue.
I don't have a PC however, but can run, say, Windows7, in Parallles on a
Mac.
Phil.
