Playing flv files from Cloudfront/S3 with Strobe Media Playback

I'm using the OSMF's Strobe Media Playback player to try and play files from AWS Cloudfront/S3

The bucket is called ct.recorder. The cloudfront distribution is called 1dm7svtk8jb00c.cloudfront.net, and it's origin is ct.recorder.

The video within the bucket is called vid_test001

I've tried initializing the player with rtmp://s34osaecrafusl.cloudfront.net/cfx/st/vid_test001

But that doesn't work.

I get Connection attempt rejected by FMS server. Connection failed.

I've also tried it with .flv at the end, but that doesn't work either.

Am I not linking to the file properly, or is it my player?

Solution

  • The embed parameter urlIncludesFMSApplicationInstance needs to be set to true.
