Pseudo-streaming is characterized by downloading an actual file and playing that file as it's being downloaded. Pseudo-streaming allows for seeking to a particular point in the video, without having to download all the video data in between.
Below is an example of a standard Flowplayer installation at 640x480 using HTTP through our lighthttpd protocol.
Source Code
flowplayer("player1", "http://releases.flowplayer.org/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.0.swf", {
clip: {
url: 'http://p.ZONE.ALIAS.netdna-cdn.com/vod/ZONE.ALIAS/Extremists.flv',
autoPlay: false,
autoBuffering: true,
provider: 'lighttpd'
},
plugins: {
lighttpd: {
url: '/flowplayer/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.0.swf'
}
}
});
With Splash Screen
flowplayer("player1", "flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.0.swf", {
clip: {
url: 'http://p.ZONE.ALIAS.netdna-cdn.com/vod/ZONE.ALIAS/Extremists.flv',
autoPlay: false,
autoBuffering: true,
provider: 'lighttpd'
},
plugins: {
lighttpd: {
url: '/flowplayer/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.0.swf'
}
},
canvas:{background:'#000000 url(http://flash.flowplayer.org/media/img/title/screens.png) no-repeat 30 10'}
});
