FlowPlayer + RMTP

Having difficulty with getting Flowplayer to work nicely with RTMP.

This is currently my setup:

JS

$f("flashFallback", "/uploadedFiles/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.7.swf", {
    key: '#mykey',
    clip: {
        url: 'myVid',
        provider: 'rtmp'
    },
    plugins: {
        rtmp: {
            url: '/uploadedFiles/flowplayer.rtmp-3.2.3.swf',
            netConnectionUrl: 'rtmp://downloads.mysite.com/flash_video/'
        }
    }
    });

HTML

<div id="flashFallback"></div>

My file paths are working fine, I can access them through other flv video players, but it's giving me the following error

201, Unable to load stream or clip file, connection failed, clip: '[Clip] myVid"

The server that the file is coming from runs Adobe FMS, can normally be accessed through HTTPS...not sure what else to give for details and I can't show an example as it's on a pre server and contains some...sensitive information.

The RTMP plugin documentation says:

Adobe's Flash Media Server does not like the file extension in the clip's URL so you should not include it in the value. For example, just use url: 'metacafe' even when the file is actually named 'metacafe.flv'.

Despite that, I have seen streams sometimes only working with extension added and other times with extension prepended like flv:myvid. But this was more a problem of f4v or mp4.

You say, your server is accessable via HTTPS. If it's also via HTTP try to use rtmpt as protocol in your netConnectionUrl.

If all that does not work, try a minimized setup with free Flowplayer and try URLs from Flowplayer homepage. If they work and yours don't, consider this as a configuration problem of your FMS.
