It''s a good while back now..  can't actually recall whether I got this
going or not with swfc.  Will have to check.  It can certainly be done
under AS2.

Embedding the Video Object within a Movie Object, then embedding
that Movie Object on the Stage, may help..

The alternative is using the Flash Player FLV component, or else
embedding a pre-compiled basic SWF.player, which allows full
customisation.  Plenty of them out there to grab..

Cheers,



Chris.

Because only with with AS2 alone you can't create a video object or a video streaming object (almost sure of that) I have to 

find a external way to solve this issue.

The solutions I think of are:

1. using swfc and AS3 to create the swf wrapper for flv streaming, but here i have to see if is swf created for flash 9 works into  swf for flash 8 (my main movie).

2. using Ming php library and AS2 to create the swf , but have to figure out how to do it and how reliable is.

3. using OpenLaszlo to create the swf.

4. using Adobe Flash and AS2 to create the swf, since the 1-3 are open source and cross platform, the Adobe Flash is not open source and not on Linux natively.

There is anything else possible here?

Any help will be much appreciated.
