Hello,

I’m in a bit of an emergency situation. I need build a high def video player in flash as3 for people WITHOUT the quicktime player.

Neither mov nor m4v files work (They obviously need quicktime), and when I convert my movies to FLV they look very pixelated.

IS there anyway to build a high def video player that does not require quicktime player!?!?

Thanks
