| If php is on the same server as FMS, and the php user has permission to
access the FMS applications directory, then you can use php to access
the file.
$myfile = "/path/to/fms/applications/application
name/streams/instance/file.flv
If FMS and php are not on the same server, you might have php make an
FTP connection to the FMS server to retrieve the file, or if FMS is
configured to put the flv files in a public directory, php could
retrieve the file over http. There's lots of options, the best one will
be dictated by your application and server configuration/location(s).
Transcoding is a different matter entirely. If the flv in question was
recorded using Flashplayer/FMS, you're going to have to jump through
some hoops... and (at least for the time being) write a big fat check.

| Hi Marius,
I've used php to download and delete FLV files from the server. (FLV =20
files can get fat fast!) The only problem we ran into was the hosting =20=
service's policies, but php worked fine for everything from viewing =20
the files to downloading them.
HTH,
Bill

| Hi Marius,
Its easy you can use ftp functions of php to read and download file or
upload flv files.
One of its http://in.php.net/manual/en/function.ftp-get.php, you can find
out more functions on php.net or just download manual of php from php.net

| Hi Marius,
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Here's the code I used for
downloading flv files from Flash Com Server. (You can tell that it
was set up on a Linux server and done a while back--about 2-3 years
ago.) If you fiddle with it for a while you can adapt it to what you
need.
<?php
$file = "../../../../../opt/macromedia/fcs/applications/
guardian_v1/" . $acctFLV;
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".basename($file));
@readfile($file);
?>
HTH,
Bill

| Hello,
I'm not very fluent in php and might be wrong here,
but I think the $acctFLV below should be checked somehow
or you'll expose the files on your server

| Alex,
You're probably right--this was just a simple proof-of-concept. It's
also older PHP, and so something like $_POST[$acctFLV] would be a lot
more secure.
BTW, I noticed a line break after ...applications/ --the line break
is after $acctFLV.
