You can see how the flash.js uses setProperty here: On Jun 11, 2013, at 4:45 AM, Srijan R Shetty notifications@github.com wrote:

Hi. I'm trying to use Videojs to play a RTMP stream: <html>
<head>
<link href="http://vjs.zencdn.net/4.1/video-js.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="http://vjs.zencdn.net/4.1/video.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<video id="example_video_1" class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
controls preload="auto" width="640" height="264">
</video>
<script>
videojs('example_video_1').ready(function() {
this.src({type: "rtmp/flv", src: "rtmp://localhost/myapp/video-test.flv"});
this.play();
});
</script>
</body>
</html>I see the player window but I get this error: No compatible source and playback technology were found. Is there a working tutorial on how to set up RTMP playback? |

Pull request #687 is going to update RTMP support, and it's close to being ready. |
|
Nice. Thanks! |
|
Will video.js be able to play rtmp on browsers that do not support flash or does it require flash? |
|
RTMP playback requires the browser to have the Flash plugin. The Flash tech for Video.js (since moved to a separate repository, videos/videojs-flash) only enables Video.js to play videos with Flash; it does not emulate Flash. |
|
@mister-ben do you know of any way to play RTMP .flv without using Flash? |
|
You can't use RTMP in a browser without Flash. It is possible to transmux FLV and play it with media source extentions, like flv.js does, but they're using HTTP(S) or occasionally websocket, not RTMP. |
|
technically html5 video object is protocol agnostic, so everything is possible, depend the developers to do it |
|
The problem is that browsers cannot access anything that isn't HTTP or WebSockets. So, RTMP isn't accessible outside of flash. |

Creating a wrap-up issue for RTMP support questions.
Summary: RTMP has been in development for awhile, but we haven't had the time/resources to polish it off yet. It's been tested in a few applications but there's no direct interface to it from the javascript, or documentation around it yet. We don't yet have priority around this or a release date, but I'll update this issue when we do.
For anyone experience with Flash, you can see the implementation in the swf here:
