How to properly format RTMP links without using "File" property


Hi guys. Ok this is going to sound a little different, but here goes.

Essentially we are trying to play RTMP live streams in our Android application that we're developing. The API we're using to play RTMP streams only seems to accept addresses like rtmp://server/file but majority of RTMP streams out there also require the "File" as a separate parameter.

So how would we format all the RTMP links so that we can pass it as one RTMP address without using the "File" as a separate parameter? Sometimes rtmp://server/file works but most of the time it doesn't.

Here is an example, this works fine with JWPlayer.

rtmp://russiatoday.fms.visionip.tv/rt/Russia_al_yaum_1000k_1
File: 1000k_1.flv

When we try it as:

rtmp://russiatoday.fms.visionip.tv/rt/Russia_al_yaum_1000k_1/1000k_1

or

rtmp://russiatoday.fms.visionip.tv/rt/Russia_al_yaum_1000k_1/1000k_1.flv

... it doesn't work.

I'm hoping we can just format the URL differently so that the RTMP server will accept it. Any ideas?

Thanks.
