Playing FLV videos in JSP/Java EE

I want to play flv videos on my website. The video files are not stored on my server but i only have the url of video . The url of video do not end with .flv. So my flv player( jw player) gives error "video not found " . only if the url is ending with .flv then it plays.

How can i play the videos whose path don't end with .flv ?? I cant download it on my server and the forward because i don't have much server space.

My site is in java/jsp with struts.

Have a look at red5 - it's an opebn source java based implementation of Flash media server. The documentation isn't great but it's quite a good product.

you don't have to download it, but you can still pipeline it through your server. Java's simple networking apis should let you do this. Although it seems like a bit much simply for a file extension. Are you running behind apache? If so - you can use it as a proxy to other sites (and do regex translations of the url). That might be the easiest way.
