VB.net Embding a rtmp stream

Hello,

I am trying to embed an online stream for a channel into my vb.net program. I am having a hard time implementing the stream into my project.

Looking at the stream source:
bc.. <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="live.ctvchannel.tv_files/player.swf" style="" id="mpl" name="mpl" quality="high" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" wmode="opaque" flashvars="backcolor=111111&frontcolor=CCCCCC&lightcolor=66CC00&autostart=true&skin=http://manage.streamcyclone.com/skins/beelden/beelden/beelden.xml&streamer=rtmp://sc-lb1.streamcyclone.com/ctvch_live&file=ctvch&plugins=http://manage.streamcyclone.com/plugins/qualitymonitor,gapro-1&abouttext=StreamCyclone Player&aboutlink=http://www.streamcyclone.com/&gapro.accountid=UA-679067-4&gapro.trackpercentage=true&gapro.tracktime=true" width="720" height="420"></div>



I want to use jw player, but I am not sure, how to make play this stream. any help or hints would be appreciated.

I couldn't find a single example on how to play the RTMP file in vb.net! I looked online, but I couldn't find any. I read tons of good reviews about jw player, and I really like using it in my projects.

We don’t have any examples specific to vb.net I’m afraid.

Hello Ethan,

I tried to play with the player.swf in my vb.net project. Here's how I am trying to do it:

I have Shockwave flash Object, and I am passing the following to it:

bc.. Dim swftoload As String
swftoload = "C:player.swf?file=rtmp://sc-e1.streamcyclone.com:1935/ctvch_live/ctvch&autostart=true"

AxShockwaveFlash1.LoadMovie(0, swftoload)



When I tried that I got this error: "Task Queue failed at step 5: Playlist could not be loaded: Error# 2032"

I think I am close to getting it to work, at least I am receiving an error, before it was not even responding!

You can’t link to an rtmp path as the file variable.

Thanks Ethan for your reply. Those example are not for vb.net, so I am trying to play with options.
I tried:
bc.. swftoload = "C:player.swf?streamer=rtmp://sc-e1.streamcyclone.com:1935/ctvch_live/ctvch&autostart=true"

it just gives me the player screen, but doesn't play or do anything!

Tried:
bc.. swftoload = "C:player.swf?streamer=rtmp://sc-e1.streamcyclone.com:1935/ctvch_live&file=ctvch&autostart=true"

It looks like it's loading something, but never starts!

Something like C:player.swf?streamer=rtmp://sc-e1.streamcyclone.com:1935/ctvch_live&file=ctvch&autostart=true should work but I need to see a link…

The original link is: http://live.ctvchannel.tv
I feel like I am pretty close to get it working!

No idea about c#, we have not used it before.

If you need to support multiple files, the best way to do this is with a playlist – http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/jw-player-for-flash-v5/24/creating-a-playlist

I don’t understand the question and what does this have to do with the JW Player?
