   I am trying to embed and get a FLV movie to play, but all that is showing up is a blank box. Any ideas? The code is below. Also I've tried the FLV plugin with no success and the MEDIA->ADD NEW denied me because the file is bigger than 2 megs. Please Help! http://www.englewoodlandscapes.com

   <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="295" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="flashvars" value="flvToPlay=http://www.englewoodlandscapes.com/Englewood.flv&autoStart=false&loop=false&hiddenGui=false&smoothVideo=true&showScaleModes=true&defaultVolume=100&startImage=http://www.englwoodlandscapes.com/watch.jpg" /><param name="src" value="http://www.englewoodlandscapes.com/flvplayer.swf" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="295" src="http://www.englewoodlanscapes.com/flvplayer.swf" flashvars="flvToPlay=http://www.englewoodlandscapes.com/Englewood.flv&autoStart=false&loop=false&hiddenGui=false&smoothVideo=true&showScaleModes=true&defaultVolume=100&startImage=http://www.englwoodlandscapes.com/watch.jpg"></embed></object>

   Have you used Flash's default FLV player?

   Try moving the skin file up a directory (on level with the HTML file) and see if that sorts it. As you're playing the .swf in the HTML file the path may be wrong.

   Hope it helps !

   It may be called something like "ClearExternalPlayMute.swf"

   No, the path is correct. It works as an mpeg, but more people have flash players than mpeg, so I have to change it.
