Loading FLV files from another host
(Domain names changed to protect the innocent!)
I set up a SWF on https://host1.osric.com to load an FLV file from http://host2.osric.com. It works fine on my computer, presumably because my computer is within the osric.com domain. But outside users just see the video controls, and the FLV never loads.
I found documentation on cross-domain data loading, although I didn't think I should need that since both hosts are within the same domain. I set up crossdomain.xml files to allow access from *.osric.com on both systems anyway, and set the secure attribute to "false". However, the video still exhibits the same behavior: SWF loads, but the FLV doesn't.
Anyone have any tips on how to get this to work? (I'd like to test it to narrow the cause down to the http/https discrepancy or the host1/host2 discrepancy, but I don't have a test environment that will let me play around that much.)
