Hey folks,  
I have a flash 8 video (flv) thats called through the video component in a SWF file.

The swf displays the skin correctly when used both standalone, and from within a web page locally.

The skin simply doesnt appear when I run the same files from the server …any idea what on earth is goin on here?
