Ok, so what I thought would be a relatively easy project is turning into a nightmare for me… I currently have video previews of work that I have done on my website, problem is to many myspace users were leeching my videos and clogging my bandwidth… so I decided to go the flash route.

Now I’ve designed a player interface and I’m satisfied with it, now I’m not to familiar with controling a video element. I’ve experimented with the video tutorial with the sledding dogs but I’m afraid I’m still a little lost.

All I want to do is be able to control the video clip as they are called. Rewind, Fast Forward, play, pause, etc. I would love to implement a drop down menu that would have all my videos available, but I’ll start simple.

Any help would be awesome!! Thanks guys…
