Re: FLASH: Streaming video in flash file?

[Slugtrail]

First, thanks a lot for your suggestions everyone. You've given me some new

ideas. What I'm trying to do here is to control a streaming video file from

within a flash file. For instance by making a TVset in flash and have the

videofile play inside the screen, being able to control volume, play, stop

etc. from the flashfile.

I suppose I could use iframe, as brzys suggested, but then I exclude other

browsers than IE4.x. I also thought of putting the videofile on a different

layer on the webpage, but that excludes older browsers. So what I was hoping

for was that it would be possible to embed it into the flashfile itself in

some way...
