Hey everybody,

I have created a flash file with a video object to load FlVs listed in an XML file.  
Everything works perfectly (well, it works fine 🙂 except that when I convert videos to FLV I choose a skin, and when the videos are loaded in video object … **there’s no skin**?

What am I doing wrong?..or, more likely, what am I not doing, connecting, declaring …:h:

Also, I converted videos through Import Video in Flash, and I did see a “skin file” appearing in the folder where my FLVs end up. I suppose I should do something with it to have the skin attach to… something …

Any help is greatly appreciated - I am not in a hurry to finish this but it’s driving me nuts!

Thanks in advance 😃
