.net http handler redirect to rtmp and flex

Question

I have an http handler (.ashx) that I use to display an image or swf or flv based on the id. So, for instance http://www.example.com/myHandler.ashx?id=1234 it displays the image for id 1234. I am using this as a source for an image tag or swf loader or video display in flex. In my handler if the item is a video I just redirect the request to the http address of the progressive download video(flv). That works great. But if I want to redirect the request to a streaming server using the rtmp protocol, it doesn't do a thing. Any thoughts? Is it even possible to redirect to anything other than a http address?

I also have weborb for dot net available which apparently has rtmp tunneling available. Is it possible to set up the request in that way?

Answer 1

http://www.example.com/myHandler.ashx?id=1234

Use the Querysting to get the id and use the get stored procedure to retrive the image and return..later assing that return path in the image src
