Red5 Media Server Forum: As3 rtmp video stream on localhost red5 path issue - Red5 Media Server Forum

Hi,
Below is a sample application i have been developing in as3 flash based on ofla demo. But i seem to be having issues connecting to the stream.I am using the same video files as given with the red5 server demo installation.
my output trace traces out as a connection success and the play start of the video file. But i am unable to get its metadata or see it actually playing on the stage.

getting this right would help in converting/reworking some of the as2 examples into as3.

package 
{
	import flash.display.*;
	import flash.events.NetStatusEvent;
	import flash.events.*;
	import flash.media.*;
	import flash.net.NetConnection;
	import flash.net.NetStream;
	import flash.events.Event;


	public class NetConnectionExample extends MovieClip
	{
		private var videoURL:String = "rtmp://localhost/oflaDemo/streams/avatar.flv";
		private var connection:NetConnection;
		private var stream:NetStream;
		public function NetConnectionExample()
		{
			// constructor code
			connection = new NetConnection();
			connection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
			connection.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityErrorHandler);
			connection.connect(videoURL, true);
		}
		private function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void
		{
			trace("netStatusHandler",event.info.code);
			switch (event.info.code)
			{
				case "NetConnection.Connect.Success":
					connectStream();
					break;
				case "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound":
					trace("Stream not found: " + videoURL);
					break;
			}
		}

		private function securityErrorHandler(event:SecurityErrorEvent):void
		{
			trace("securityErrorHandler: " + event);
		}

		private function connectStream():void
		{
			stream = new NetStream(this.connection);
			stream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
			stream.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler)
			stream.client = new CustomClient();
			var video:Video = new Video();
			video.attachNetStream(stream);
			stream.play(videoURL);
			addChild(video);
		}
		function asyncErrorHandler(event:AsyncErrorEvent):void {
			// ignore AsyncErrorEvent events.
		}

	}
}

class CustomClient {

	trace("metadata: duration=" + info.duration + " width=" + info.width + " height=" + info.height + " framerate=" + info.framerate);
