Hi Friends,

In my application i want to play a pre-recorded flv which is stored in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3\applications\MyVideoApp in a VideoDisplay Component. I’m getting all sorts of runtime errors and not able to play.

Please help…  
Note: I’m not keeping any main.asc on the server coz I have kept value of autoBandWidthDetection=“false”. I was not able to understand main.asc’s component so i took this route

```auto

    <mx:VideoDisplay x="27" y="36" width="269" height="194" id="Play_video" autoBandWidthDetection="false"/>
