I’m using flex. embedding works ok, but when embedding a flv file it gives error.

```auto

		[Embed(source="video.flv")]
		 [Bindable]
		public var SvgFrog:Class;

```

errors:  
‘video.flv’ does not have a recognized extension, and a mimeType was not provided

Unable to transcode video.flv.

I tried to add mime type, but no luck, still the same errors. I got to remove the mimetype error, but still, the video is not embed.

```auto

@Embed(source='video.flv', mimeType='application/octet-stream')

```

The point is that I want the video to be part of the swf file. 1 swf package with all inside…
