Yes thats the only requirement, the crossdomain.xml must be on the source of stream, and for shoutcast V2 there is no problem as it can easily drop it on the folder location of the sc_serv file, the problem is for native shoutcast server, the player must be located on the same hostname, but since our player are for rentals we cannot send the swf file to the stream host server so what we did is provide a loader swf and a php that will be uploaded to the client host server to trick the flash to think that it is located on the same host itself with the source stream, other option is to request the host server to enable policy port 843 but this mostly did work.
