[Red5devs] Question: Attaching multiple flash.media.Video objects to one flash.net.NetStream

[Art Clarke]

Hi folks,

This is more a Flash question than a Red5 question but here goes.  Our
application needs to display, at the same time, multiple versions of the
same video side-by-side.  I'd like to be able to do that with just one
NetStream object being used by multiple flash.media.Video objects.

We can make this work by creating multiple NetStream objects, and then
attaching a different Video to each NetStream.  However this results in us
downloading multiple copies of the same stream in parallel.  In a perfect
world, we'd just have one NetStream and attach many Video objects to it.

However, our testing seems to show that only the last flash.media.Video
object that does a attachNetStream() call gets video and the other Video
objects remain empty.  Has anyone else seen this and/or do you know a way to
work around this?
