I’ve been reading a few articles, and they are all suggesting that this is done in just a certain way, and they all seem to be uniform in the way that they are explaining how to do this (probably because most of them are from Adobe), but i cannot seem to get this one working…

In my time line i have a Video object with an instance name of “myVideo”, and in that same frame, but in my actions layer, i have the following code that is supposed to load the video from the same folder as the swf:

```php
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

nc.connect(null);

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

myVideo.attachVideo(ns);

ns.play("Video-1.flv");

```

But when you get to this spot, there is no video…
