Flowplayer rtmp integration with smil playlists Posted Nov 24, 2011 by Stefan Caunter

Here is how to integrate a commercial flowplayer licensed version into rtmp streaming with ScaleEngine CDN.

The example assumes you are using a .smil file stream named yourplaylist on ScaleEngine, and that the smil file knows about three different streams, configured to be a variable in php (in this case, ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE).

Set up your div and call the scripts you need. You want to be using the commercial 3.2.7 flowplayer, with the 3.2.3 rtmp plugin.

Provider "scaleengine" is not especially important, but we like our vanity, sometimes.

I created a stripped down flash window, with no controls, that just plays a continuous loop, like a tv station.

This embed code will detect the page language, and assuming your smil file has paths to the proper language videos, the viewer gets the correct language playback stream from the named playlist.
