  1. I've moved my website from godaddy to discountasp.net.
    My website had 2 flowplayer videos. I notice on discountasp.net that sometimes flowplayer simply doesn't find them. Sometimes they work, sometimes I get an error message.
    On one browser (firefox) I sometimes not even an error message, just two lines where the video was supposed to be.
    The weird thing is that sometimes the video does work.
    And that it always worked on godaddy.

    I was thinking maybe discountasp.net has some streaming video player getting involved without my knowing it, or that discountasp is doing some periodic maintenance that messes things up. But I don't really know.

    :mad:
     
  2. When the flowplay videos do not work, have you logged into your control panel and under IIS Tools recycled your Application Pool? If you haven't tried that and let us know if it works after you run that step.
     
  3. Recycling app pool does not help.

    I tried your idea, and it did not help. The video is a MP4 video, and I've created a fairly simple file at:

    The first time you show it, it will play. If you do a refresh, usually it will not play the second time, and instead will give an error that the stream is not found.
    This is not an issue with other hosting companies like 'godaddy'. It is, however, an issue with 'discountasp.net'.
