Streaming files with different folders

Question

Hi
i am new to FMS4 and i am having a problem playing some files with different folders.
i have different folders in C:\media3\feeds
in that directory i have folder "1", "2" and "3"
other words C:\media3\feeds\1
C:\media3\feeds\2
C:\media3\feeds\3
in config folder i changed fms.ini
VOD_DIR = C:\media3\feeds\
and
VOD_COMMON_DIR = C:\media3\feeds\
i only got the f4v files to work in C:\media3\feeds\ which link is rtmp://localhost/vod/mp4:testfile.f4v
so i tired to have some folders in C:\media3\feeds\ like mention above
i tried to put <Streams>/;<C:\media3\feeds\1</Streams> in Applications.xml file in the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 4\applications\vod
and used rtmp://localhost/vod/1/mp4:testfile.f4v
here is piece of the App file
<Application>
<StreamManager>
<VirtualDirectory>
      <!-- Specifies application specific virtual directory mapping for recorded streams.   -->
<Streams>/;${VOD_COMMON_DIR}</Streams>
<Streams>/;${VOD_DIR}</Streams>
<Streams>/;<C:\media3\feeds\1</Streams>
<Streams>/;<C:\media3\feeds\2</Streams>
</VirtualDirectory>
nothing worked
can some one help me with this??

If you are using
VOD_DIR = C:\media3\feeds\ or VOD_COMMON_DIR = C:\media3\feeds\
and having files in folder "1" which is under "C:\media3\feeds\"
then you URI should be rtmp://localhost/vod/mp4:1/testfile.f4v (where testfile.f4v is present under C:\media3\feeds\1)
If you are using
<Streams>/;C:\media3\feeds\1</Streams>
<Streams>/;C:\media3\feeds\2</Streams>
Then your URI should be rtmp://localhost/vod/mp4:testfile.f4v  (where testfile.f4v is present under C:\media3\feeds\1 or C:\media3\feeds\2)
Also please note in your configuration which you have specified
<Streams>/;<C:\media3\feeds\1</Streams><Streams>/;<C:\media3\feeds\2</Streams>
 please remove "<" in "<C:\media3\feeds\1" and "<C:\media3\feeds\2"
