Ive been experimenting with flex alot lately, but I’m still pritty much a begginer so please be kind 😃

Anyway I couldn’t find any other free alternatives out there with some of the features I wanted so I created my own. I havn’t made it look good yet, + there are tons of bugs and things (mostly due to bad coding, which is why I’m not releasing the source, _yet_).

There are only 2 variables you need to change, source and holder. Heres a simple example: (you have to put the holder in because of how the ‘onReleaseOutside’ method works with the scrubber. I’ll try and fix that as soon as I figure out how :P)

```auto
<local:VideoPlayer holder="{this}" source="video.flv" />

```

- There are tons of bugs with the scrubber, Il try and rewrite that.

Oh and the fullscreen button I removed. It was working fine, but whenever you tried to exit fullscreen it came up with an error. So I’ll try and fix that then if theres still interest Il post it.

[So heres an example](http://boshpk.co.uk/flexVideoPlayer/) (I added a little thing at the top which lets you enter your own video links, just type it in and presss enter).

[And finally the component.](http://boshpk.co.uk/flexVideoPlayer/VideoPlayer.swc)

So, err, what d’ya think?
