Playing mp4 video using FLVPlayback module?

Question

I link my mp4 video directly using video.source = "my.mp4" in AS3 and the link is not broken, but then player keeps on loading forever.

Any ideas?

TA

Is it a protected MP4 (eg downloaded from Apple iTunes) or digitally encrypted? — AsTheWormTurns, Dec 11 '11 at 18:20
Flash Player version? And: is this the only mp4 that does not work? — AsTheWormTurns, Dec 11 '11 at 18:24
Could you try if this works? http://blog.six4rty.ch/downloads/sampleH264.zip And: could you post the code you use to load it? Have you a public URL to see this thing in action? :-) — AsTheWormTurns, Dec 11 '11 at 18:39
AS3: video.source = "http://codedoctrine.com/projects/media/WF109H.mp4"; video.play(); via FLVPlayback — Donatas Cereska, Dec 11 '11 at 18:45
same with bufferTime, but movie loads, within screen i can see, just no video is shown. hmm worrying — Donatas Cereska, Dec 11 '11 at 18:56

Got it, thanks guys.

Found out that all it needs is a simple video object and a NetConnection instead of FLVPlayback.

FLVPlayback is pretty strict and won't allow query strings in the URL, which could prevent playback, in case anyone ran into that problem. – Triynko Oct 23 '12 at 17:26
