Flowplayer and Pseudostreaming by PHP script

Made it work, by updating streamer script (delete old php4 func, and clear message output). My php:

// SCRIPT CONFIGURATION

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// MEDIA PATH
//
// you can configure these settings to point to video files outside the public html folder.
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// points to server root
define('XMOOV_PATH_ROOT', dirname(__FILE__));

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// SCRIPT BEHAVIOR
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

//set to TRUE to use bandwidth limiting.

//set to FALSE to prohibit caching of video files.
define('XMOOV_CONF_ALLOW_FILE_CACHE', TRUE);

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// BANDWIDTH SETTINGS
//
// these settings are only needed when using bandwidth limiting.
//
// bandwidth is limited my sending a limited amount of video data(XMOOV_BW_PACKET_SIZE),
// in specified time intervals(XMOOV_BW_PACKET_INTERVAL).
// avoid time intervals over 1.5 seconds for best results.
//
// you can also control bandwidth limiting via http command using your video player.
// the function getBandwidthLimit($part) holds three preconfigured presets(low, mid, high),
// which can be changed to meet your needs
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

//set how many kilobytes will be sent per time interval
define('XMOOV_BW_PACKET_SIZE', 90);

//set the time interval in which data packets will be sent in seconds.
define('XMOOV_BW_PACKET_INTERVAL', 0.3);

//set to TRUE to control bandwidth externally via http.

}

}

And my JS:

$f("player", "func/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.5.swf", {
plugins: {
lighttpd: {
url: 'flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.5.swf',
queryString:escape('&start=${start}')
}
},

// clip properties
clip: {
// make this clip use pseudostreaming plugin with "provider" property
provider: 'lighttpd',
bufferLength: "0",
autoBuffering: false,
// all videos under this baseUrl support pseudostreaming on the server side
url: '/content/streamer.php/0a/21eqw21wsa.flv'

},

});
