    Problem playing the flv file

    I make a simple Webpage (jsp page) and i embed a flvplayer. Everything is ok if the flash video file under web root. But i want to save the videos let say in c:/videos but the flvplayer does not start to play the videos from that location.
    Here is my sample jsp file.
    PHP Code:
    <%@page contentType="text/html"%>
    <%@
    page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>


    <!
    DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"
    >
    <
    html>
        <
    head>
            <
    meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
            <
    title>JSP Page</title>
        </
    head>
        <
    body>
            <
    h1>JSP Page</h1>
            
            
            <
    object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="flvplayer.swf" width="500" height="450" id="FlvPlayer">
                <
    param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
                <
    param name="movie" value=flvplayer.swf" />
                <param name="
    quality" value="high" />
                <param name="
    scale" value="noScale" />
                <param name="
    wmode" value="transparent" />
                <param name="
    bgcolor" VALUE="#000000" />
                
    <param name="flashvars" value="file=c:\star.flv" />
            </
    object>
            
        </
    body>
    </
    html
    Any idea??
    Thanks,

    are you changing the relative path:

    <param name="flashvars" value="file=c:\videos\star.flv" />

    Problem playing the flv file

    Thanks for your reply. I made a mistake. Here is the correct code.
    The flv player is displayed, but when i press play it hangs (loading...)

    Code:
    <%@page contentType="text/html"%> 
    <%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> 
    
    
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" 
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> 
    <html> 
        <head> 
            <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> 
            <title>JSP Page</title> 
        </head> 
        <body> 
            <h1>JSP Page</h1> 
             
             
            <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="flvplayer.swf" width="500" height="450" id="FlvPlayer"> 
                <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /> 
                <param name="movie" value=flvplayer.swf" /> 
                <param name="quality" value="high" /> 
                <param name="scale" value="noScale" /> 
                <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> 
                <param name="bgcolor" VALUE="#000000" /> 
                <param name="flashvars" value="file=c:\video\star.flv" />  
            </object> 
             
        </body> 
    </html>
    Thanks again for your reply.

    Try this:
    <param name="flashvars" value="file=../video/star.flv" />

    Normally I call the FLV, as I set-up the player in flash (within flash). What version of flash are you using?

    Problem playing the flv file

    Here is the structure of my web application (in Apache Tomcat)
    MyApplication
    METAINF
    WEB-INF
    index.jsp
    mediaplayer.swf


    I had tried such a thing (it points out of webapp context), but to put video files out of the app context but it was the same problem. I thought to place file in c:/videos/ should be easier.

    Thanks a lot for your reply.
