I recently created a media player in Flash 8 to playback MP3’s (embedded) and external video flv’s off a standard http server. No problem with progressive streaming flv’s from external folder and using one of the resident component skins (clearOverPlaySeekMute) to control the videos. But then I had to convert the file to Flash MX 2004 (Flash 7) due to too many people not having current Flash Player (and not wanting to upgrade). I was able to get the re-encoded Sorenson Squeeze videos to progressive stream, but the component skins (that came with Flash MX 2004) for controlling it were either too big and boxy or didn’t work with progressive streaming video. I tried to make control buttons using standard action script but they don’t work with streaming video. Essentially I’m lookin for a skin comparable to clearOverPlaySeekMute from Flash 8 that will work with Flash 7. Any help here would be much appreciated./BBC
