hi everybody, i’m working on the video player from [gotoandlearn.com](http://gotoandlearn.com)  
Now i want to add to images underneed the player wich refer to a FLV. When i click on one of these images the video should start playing in the player. So no xml has to be used just 2 images and they need to load a external FLV when they get clicked. How can i add that to this video player ?

This is the player i am talking about [http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=5](http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=5)

So Lets say my clickable MC’s would be MC\_1 and MC\_2

And my videos would be 1.flv and 2.flv

then i would need to add this script:

```auto
 
this.MC_1.onRelease = function(){
ns.play("1.flv");
}
 
this.MC_2.onRelease = function(){
ns.play("2.flv");
}

```

am i correct ?

take a peek at [this tutorial here](http://livedocs.adobe.com/studio/8/exploring/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=05_Video_Pod.html) - after you get it set up per the tutorial you can use:

```auto

this.yourImageClip.onRelease = function() {
      yourFlvPlackBack.stop();
      yourFlvPlackBack.close(); 
      yourFlvPlackBack.contentPath = "pathtoyourmovie.flv";
      yourFlvPlackBack.play(); 

}

```
