Invalid tincan object name

[designMorgue]

I am trying to stream video from a Flash Media Server using AS3. I am getting an error that I cannot figure out. In my NetStatusEventHandler I am getting event code "NetStream.Play.Failed". The error is: "Invalid tincan object name (stream ID: 1)" This means absolutely nothing to me and I have been unable to find any documentation on the meaning of this error.

ISSUE RESOLVED: I was including the filename in the netconnection.connect method's URI



NOTE: I have also posted this in the Flash Media Server forum as I was unsure where this question best fit.

Glad that you figured it out. Here are a couple of things that could help in the future. It would have helped if you had posted the code you were using. Somebody would probably have seen something like that right off.

The other thing is that it is helpful if you don't edit posts, but rather make a new one. Folks who use Newsreaders on the forum don't see the edits.
