I am new to FMS. I am working with the videoPlayback component. I have tried
several different ways of connecting to the FMS server, including the
simpleConnect component, and coding in the connection myself. In all cases I
am able to successfully connect to the server. Within the console I see my
client connections, as well as the prospective streams. However, when I hit
the play button on my videoPlayback component, nothing happens. Within the
streams window in the console, I see the streams there, just sitting idle.
Also, the name of the stream is blank (says "-") and the time says 0.

My main.asc file contains only one line - it loads components.asc. According
to the server logs, all components are loading successfully.

I have made sure to place my FLV within the stream directory and made sure to
reference it by its name only, not with the .flv extension.

Thoughts? Thank you!

Pay particular note to the second sentence regarding the location of the
needed main.asc.
