Is there any way to modify an existing player skin so it can give me a loading progress (like the spinning wheel on youtube or a numerical readout) with a play button over the video. Something simple that a nucklehead (that’s me) can use.

I have a video to play from within a .swf that will reference the video from a server. Works fine now but I would like the player skin to have a better feedback to the user.

Thanks,  
Michael
