Preparing flv files for media streaming server. « Remdex blog

Like i wrote in one of the previous my articles about creating flv streaming server. Next thing we have to do is prepare flv file for streaming.

Flv file have to be indexed and have keyframes to slider work properly. This can be archieved two ways:

I prefer using flvtool++ it's mutch more faster than flvtool2. Usage examples

Adding metatag to flv file with flvtool2 looks like

flvtool2 -UP <file_path>

Adding metatag information to flv file looks like:

flvtool++ <source.flv> <indexed.flv>
