Hello,

I own a site ( [http://13gb.com](http://13gb.com) ) and it was time to go with flash video, seems like it’s the best solution for compatibility with all platforms

I came across this site **[http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Flash\_Video\_Player](http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Flash_Video_Player)** and used this player to build what is currently on the site (yes, I paid for a license)

**EXAMPLE :** **[http://13gb.com/media.php?media\_id=2394](http://13gb.com/media.php?media_id=2394)**  
I wanted to build it so the video controls fade in when you mouse over the video and fade out when you mouse out …

But like a thread I read here **[http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=248412](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=248412)** I was having problems with buttons in side movie clips… the only way i was able to achieve this was to add a 10px border outside  
 ![](http://azulinteractive.com/imgs/13gb_video.gif)  
to detect when the mouse is off the video… however this method is not perfect.

Is there a way to track the parameters of the mouse location and tell flash to display controls if you are in certain parameters?

How can I get this to work without having to settle for the solution I’m currently using

also your criticism on the player is welcome… colors, design, etc.

Thank you in advance
