How to stream videos from Amazon s3 using flowplayer in my site?

enet_marketer · 09-23-2009, 09:12 PM

Seems everything I read about streaming using flowplayer is really not clear to me. Can anybody show a tutorial on this?

I am going to set up a landing page with video and I would like to use flowplayer. I signed up for amazon s3 to host my media but how do I get it to stream in my landing page using flowplayer? I don't know where to start I really need help on this.

Don't know Flowplayer, but I'm streaming videos from Amazon on JWPlayer. I use CloudFront to distribute my videos, as it streams a lot faster (no jerky stops and starts). You can look at the source code on my latest video page and see the embed code for the player. The player and it's skin are loaded on my domain and called in the embed code. Then, you'll see the calls to CloudFront for the video and the FirstFrame.png.

I've tried this software before and seem to be stuck with the same problem
