H264 video published with FP11 to FMS4.5 not playing anywhere else

Question

I have created an swf where I can record the webcam picture as H264 video to a FMS 4.5 (I am using the developer version).
My code is looking like this:
var h264Settings = new H264VideoStreamSettings();
h264Settings.setProfileLevel("baseline", "1.2");
stream.videoStreamSettings = h264Settings;
stream.publish("mp4:mystream.f4v, "record");
I can then replay the video from FMS just fine, but if I try to copy the video from the FMS application directory into a local project and try to play the video with the FLVPlayback component, or with the Adobe Media Player, it is not playing at all.
Is this to be expected? Can't I record a webcam video with FMS in H264 and use that video later without FMS?

Answer 1

This migth be expected. H.264 files recorded on FMS might default not play in other players - they would be need some post processing. You can download the tool ADOBE F4V POST PROCESSOR from here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/tool_downloads/ . Once you process the file using this tool - it should be playable.
