HI,

I´m trying to make a page with many vídeos links… and each vídeo link has just a path for a variable in java…with the right name of the flv file.  
This is for make only one swf with a video player that changes the videos with the links in java, but don´t work… something is rong…

any help?

**in flash I used.:**

import mx.video.\*;  
telavideo.contentPath = caminho;  
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();  
listenerObject.metadataReceived = function(eventObject:Object):Void {  
telavideo.setSize(telavideo.preferredWidth, telavideo.preferredHeight);  
}  
telavideo.addEventListener(“metadataReceived”, listenerObject);

**in html:**

var movieName = “testcommand”;  
function thisMovie(movieName) {  
// IE and Netscape refer to the movie object differently.  
// This function returns the appropriate syntax depending on the browser.  
if (navigator.appName.indexOf (“Microsoft”) !=-1) {  
return window[movieName]  
} else {  
return document[movieName]  
}  
}  
// Checks if movie is completely loaded.  
// Returns true if yes, false if no.  
function movieIsLoaded (theMovie) {  
if (typeof(theMovie) != “undefined”) {  
return theMovie.PercentLoaded() == 100;  
} else {  
return false;  
}  
}  
function videoa() {  
if (movieIsLoaded(thisMovie(movieName))) {  
//thisMovie(movieName).GotoFrame(theFrame);  
caminho = “video2.flv”;  
SetVariable(“video2.flv”, caminho);  
}

}  
function videob() {
