Hi Pål
Thanks for the great extension. I'm considering using it for displaying a live stream which I will be generating from a Debian machine using DVSwitch http://dvswitch.alioth.debian.org and I was wondering if you have any experience or advice with live streams?
I've only just started to research what I'll need to do this, initially I was intending to use ffmpeg2theora to convert my output then point it at an icecast server, but it doesn't appear that Flowplayer is yet able to support theora streams.
Any ideas for me?
Thanks

Thanks Brendan
The live stream feature is not fully implemented yet. But im working on it. I have worked mostly with Windows media and Apple live streams earlier, so flash is new to me. Will test it against wowza streaming server.
Dvswitch was a really cool thing, been playing a little with it here myself now. Great find! This might get usefull. You should be able to pickup the stream and send it to a flash streaming server, i'll let you know if i get it to work.
I am considering if i should use the ezflowplayer code and making it a streaming product to support several other formats. I know ezmedia supports several formats, but they dont support proper streaming servers. That was the reason i started with flowplayer.
Wowza will support apple, windows and flash in the next version. Will consider icecast also if i go that way. Maybe we can get it to support several live streams at the same time:)
A while back i did a open funding project to write a spec for a better media support for eZ. Maybe its time to go further on that now.. http://ez.no/developer/open_fundi..._functionality/ez_media_improvements

I hope you manage to get the live stream support done as I'm hoping to use this as a part of a project I'm working on.
It looks like Red5 is getting live stream support now too, check the features in Red5 0.9.0.
http://red5.googlecode.com/svn/doc/trunk/changelog.txt
I don't think it will be too hard to get dvswitch to stream to either Red5 or Wowza, I couldn't see a way to get Icecast to live stream to an embedded flash player so I changed focus and will play with Red5 soon.
I'll keep an eye on the improved eZmedia project, could be fruitful.
If I manage to make some progress I'll let you know how I get on.
