I want to import video file names from an XML document, and then play the corresponding videos in Flash–but I don’t want to restrict my “video player” to playing only FLV files. Anyone know what the AS command that I need is (or if it’s even achievable)? attachVideo didn’t seem to yield any results for me.

Thank you!
