Can you switch distribution settings for your bucket (eg. from download to streaming and vice versa without affecting the bucket)?

Will I lose any uploads I have already made if I switch the setting?

This is an example of the includes/config.php file for embedding video with flowplayer.

"http://distribution.cloudfront.net", //if you host your videos on Amazon S3 change to the URL of your bucket.

"splashimageLocator" => "http://distribution.cloudfront.net", //if you host your images on Amazon S3 change to the URL of your bucket.

"xCloseImage" => "http://www.yourdomain.com/aws/player/", //change this if you host the close.png file (in 'player' folder)

"javascriptPlayerLocator" => "http://www.yourdomain.com/aws/player/flowplayer-3.1.4.min.js", //host on your server

"SWFplayerLocator" => "http://www.yourdomain.com/aws/player/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf", //host on your server

"ContentPlugin" => "http://www.yourdomain.com/aws/player/ContentPlugin.swf", //your server

"addafflinks" => "http://www.yourdomain.com/aws/addafflinks/", //ignore

"PlayerControls" => "controls: null", //ignore

); //Just leave this one alone.

Hi: I was trying to follow your instructions about setting CloudFront, Amazon S3, CloudBerry S3 Explorer and JW Player in order to embed streaming videos on my blog, but is not working for me.

What I did was the following:

I am using cloudberry to upload my videos to S3. I created a bucket and saved my video there and created an streaming distribution with cloudfront for that bucket. I created another bucket and upload the player.swf to S3 and created distribution download for that bucket with cloudfront. The generated html code to embed the JW player that I get from cloudberry is not working for me. Every time I try to embed the code I get an error message in my blog saying the "embed tag is not closed". (I am using blogger)

I managed to get the embed code directly from the jw player website using the setup wizard and I could embed the code without errors, but I can't see any player on the post, just a white space.

I don't know if I am doing something wrong... probably, I am new to this. Please, can you elaborate more about how to store the player.swf on Amazon S3 and why the generated code by cloudberry is not working? Also, I don't understand very well what to do with that crossdomain.xml file.

Thank you.
