Trying to set up my video site to stream from the "fms server." Any Idea?

Question

I am trying to set up my video site to stream from the “fms server” and the instruction stated that I should create my own new folder in the application directory on the “fms server,” and I have created my directory, which I called “brigma_streams”, and I have copied files from {FMS-Install-Dir}/ sample/Application/vod to my new folder.
I also configured the vod service in the FMS-Install-Dir/applications/(in my-New-Folder/Application.xml file).
Here is the sample of my configuration below:
<Streams>/;${BRIGMA_STREAMS_VOD_COMMON_DIR}</Streams>
<Streams>/;${BRIGMA_STREAMS_VOD_DIR}</Streams>
And here is an example on how I modified to my XML streaming:
src="rtmp://localhost/inetpub/wwwroot/brigma_streams/SanfordNSons768K_002.f4v"
thumb="thumbs/SanfordNSons768K_002.jpg" />
After all these configuration and modification it still didn’t work at all when I tested the video in streaming mode. Could some one please take a look at and point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
After adding the configurations to the Application.xml file, you also need to add those entries to the FMS.ini file (in the conf folder). Please add those entries (similar to VOD_ entries) if not already added.
Once that step is also done, the src RTMP url will look like this : rtmp://localhost/<name of your application folder>/mp4:<stream-name-with-extension>
