Hi everyone,  
Sorry if this is a really newbie question?..  
I am making some videos that will be displayed on my website and on the link to this page I would like to display the latest video, however I do not want it to play automatically as you load this page.  
An example of what I mean is at [http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother/video/](http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother/video/) you get a nice big play button on the video and then it plays video when clicked not just because you are on the video page.  
What I have been doing is importing the video through Flash 8, choosing the streaming option and a skin from the options. (there is no skin with the play button over the video).  
When I publish my videos like this it plays them automatically as the page loads.  
I have seen loads of examples like the channel 4 one but I have no idea how to do it, please could anyone help with tutorials, .fla or anything you think will help. Thanks in advance.
