SWF Tools spits out a flashvar named "streamscript" when a server for streaming is specified in SWF Tools config. As seen at http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/wiki/FlashVars, the correct flashvar is "streamer"

can't this be altered in administer -> swftools -> Interaction -> Streaming script url ?

if not I can put forth a patch changing all instances of "streamscript" to "streamer"

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

In short: changing all instances of streamscript to streamer would work perfectly. In fact, I'm doing just that on one of my sites.

The streaming script URL sets the value of the variable named streamscript. However, since JW FLV is looking for a variable named "streamer," the Streaming script URL has no effect.
