but, when the player when the connection to FlashCom use the RTMPT
protocol, what happening ?
RTMPT is wrapped in http headers.
So how could the player behave to bypass the borwser cache ?
Is it just a fact of the binary socket ?
I know that the magic should be hidden inside the NetConnection class.
But it is also used for Flash Remoting.
Flash Remoting doesn't use binary socket, but AMF binary exchange.
So am I asking if it could possible to stream FLV on http without
caching by a way similar than remoting.
Follow me ?
Cheers.
