Hey Everyone

Trying to figure some things out with Flash Media Interactive Server.

Right now we have it set up to stream to a Flash Player. We're wondering if there's any way to stream it to an HTML5 player (mainly for iOS devices).

Or is there a way to take a Flash Code and Convert to HTML5 with some heavy scripting. We found something earlier but not quite sure if it works.

Unless you can change how you stream it out i don't think you can. Explain to me how it works, when it streams out does it steam out in a flash format? Can you change it to a different format?

Well, we have Flash Media Encoder (Mac Version) and we create the stream and send it off to Flash Media Server on a Dedi.

Now the other guy I'm working with says that he has a player nearly finished. So it will read the live .swf file and play it in a HTML5 Player.

Can't HTML5 read SWF files?

I'm not sure. I guess what we're really going for is a player to play on non-flash browsers

You're just going to screw the majority of other devices over, then.

HTML does support SWF files. I have no idea if a basic HTML page can stream though.

Do that.

@Scoutie44 what we'll end up doing is keep our Flash Based Player on our main site for Desktop viewing. But for example, I have created an iPhone Specific Version of the site so we would put the player there and on other future mobile versions.
