After releasing the post about FLV Flash video streaming with ASP.NET 2.0, IIS and HTTP handler I have received a couple of requests on how-to run the handler on ASP.NET v1.1, so I decided to "downgrade" the solution and the code to match compatibility with the "old" framework version.
All you need is to install on your IIS 5.0/6.0 the following HTTP handler and to get this to work correctly, you will need to make sure that IIS handles request for .flv files. In your site's properties, click the "Home directory tab" and click the "Configuration" button. You'll get a form like this:
Add the entry for .flv, click edit, and copy the path in the executable field. This is the aspnet_isapi.dll for the current version of the .NET Framework v1.1 of your virtual site. Cancel out of that dialog and click "add." Paste the path into the executable, use the extension .flv and set your verbs limited to "GET, POST, HEAD, DEBUG" like this:
Now any request for a .flv file on the site will be handled by ASP.NET and you are ready to watch your favourite FLV movies:
You can download ASP.NET v1.1 solution and project files here solution and project files or if you have the chance check online demo here.
