Question

I am using JWPlayer to stream videos from Azure blob storage, JWPlayer needs crossdomain.xml to play the video.

I tried to place crossdomain.xml file in the root directory and the code in http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/crossdomain.xml but JWPlayer looks for it in http://127.0.0.1:10000/crossdomain.xml.

Is there anyway to redirect JWPlayer to http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/crossdomain.xml rather than the default http://127.0.0.1:10000/crossdomain.xml?

I often use this code snippet to Create Crossdomainpolicy:

var account = CloudStorageAccount.Parse(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[ConfigKey]);
            var blobs = account.CreateCloudBlobClient();
            CreateCrossDomainPolicy(blobs);

 private static void CreateCrossDomainPolicy(CloudBlobClient blobs)
    {
        try
        {
            blobs.GetContainerReference("$root").CreateIfNotExist();
            blobs.GetContainerReference("$root").SetPermissions(
                new BlobContainerPermissions()
                {
                    PublicAccess = BlobContainerPublicAccessType.Blob
                });
            var blob = blobs.GetBlobReference("clientaccesspolicy.xml");
            blob.Properties.ContentType = "text/xml";
            blob.UploadText(@"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>
                <access-policy>
                  <cross-domain-access>
                    <policy>
                      <allow-from http-methods=""*"" http-request-headers=""*"">
                        <domain uri=""*"" />
                        <domain uri=""http://*"" />
                      </allow-from>
                      <grant-to>
                        <resource path=""/"" include-subpaths=""true"" />
                      </grant-to>
                    </policy>
                  </cross-domain-access>
                </access-policy>");
        }
        catch (Exception Ex)
        {
            throw Ex;
        }
    }

In the ConfigKey i will pass my Actual Azure storage account key or Uselocalstorage=true
