server stream

[circumflex]

Hi!

I set up a stream object on the server using:

application.myStream = Stream.get("foo");
if (application.myStream){
    application.myStream.play("sample_video");
}

Now i have no idea how to access the stream at the client side.
I understand the NetStream object opens a own streaming connection... right?
With NetStream I can do that:

nc = new NetConnection();
nc.onStatus = function(info) {
    startStreamSubscribe();
};
startStreamSubscribe = function () {
    sub_ns = new NetStream(nc);
    sub_ns.setBufferTime(20);
    my_video.attachVideo(sub_ns);
    sub_ns.play("sample_video");
};
nc.connect("rtmp://server/app_test");

But when a new user connect to the app he should not see the video from the beginning! So i have to set up a stream that constantly streams from the server again and again...

Puhhh, it's heavy stuff for an autodidact...

Here it is...

On server side i started a stream with the video "sample_video.flv":

application.onAppStart = function() {
    application.videoStream = Stream.get("my_video");
    if (application.videoStream) {
        application.videoStream.play("sample_video", 0, -1);
    }
};

Now i can see the stream:

nc = new NetConnection();
nc.onStatus = function(info) {
    if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
        startStreamSubscribe();
    } else {
        trace("connection failed");
    }
};
startStreamSubscribe = function () {
    sub_ns = new NetStream(nc);
    sub_ns.setBufferTime(10);
    _root.container.attachVideo(sub_ns);
    sub_ns.play("my_video");
};
nc.connect("rtmp://server/app");

I forgot to place an emedded video on the stage and name it "container".
That's it...

The stream does not start from it's beginning when i press browsers reload button. cool.

The next goal is to loop the stream!!

Anybody an idea?
