To test smooth streaming feature I created sample content with encoder 4 and put that into my_domain/test/ directory. Trying to play the movie from my_domain/test/ I get this error: Could not open media file /test/<filename>/Manifest. Requires output to be hosted on a web server running IIS 7.0 with Smooth Streaming handler installed and a Silverlight template that supports Smooth Streaming. 3222 error. My server seems to be Windows 2008 with IIS 7.0 as from account information in my panel. I have also got Smooth Streaming presentations module in my remote IIS manager, which recognizes /test/ directory as a smooth streaming presentation. Any ideas what could be wrong? Please tell me what should I post to make my problem clearer.
Hi, Can you show a screen shot of the files? For example, these are the files for a Smooth Streaming from Encoder 4: (The Job file shown below is not needed.)
Hi, I attached the screenshot. Maybe it is worth mentioning that I uploaded only one videofile (only one bitrate) just to save time. I have also deleted from both server and client manifest files entries for bitrates that I did not upload.
...I can definately understand you wanting to save some time, and file space. The reason your video isn't playing is you don't have the player or root video. You can't get it to do anything with just some of the chunks like that. If you need more help let me know.
Well I definetly have player, as the error comes out when I press play button on the player. So I press play button and playback does not start, after maybe some 20 seconds error comes out. Sorry maybe that was not clear from my post. The player is "MediaPlayerTemplate.xap" file in the file list. Please could you explain what is root video? Maybe this is what I am missing. But I don't really see much difference between file list you showed as example and my file list. The only difference that I have one ismv file.
...That's what I meant, just using loose terms, sorry for any confusion. If you upload all of the files does it play?
I also created support ticket and guys from support have made another smooth streaming presentation for my testing which works just fine on my server. I will try to investigate what I did wrong comparing two presentations and post the result if any)) Thank you wisemx and DASP support for your efforts.
Ok, I found mistake. In my ism file audio track pointed to nonexistent file. To one of those, which I thrown away to save time That is strange because my audio track is in the videofile which I uploaded, so after modifying filename in ism file everything works fine. Just for others if you modify smth in the encoder output be sure you correct manifest files correspondingly!
