firstly fantastic to read posts where there seems to be a few things in common regarding getting either swf's or flv's to play.
i fall into this category but i scratch my head for this is a process i do often following the same procedure and has worked on many of my webpages until NOW!!
starting with an flv movie i import into flash, add the skin, publish through settings so html, swf, jscript and skin is created then copy all of this into a unique folder on my local website.
Insert flash onto my webpage or html if i have changed the code to allow 'full screen'. Test in browser and all is well. Load all of this up to remote server but all i see now is the control skin and no picture.
i even go as far as recreating a new flv from the raw mpeg footage and have reloaded previously used flv's to find the same process i used to load them on the web doesn't work for the one i need as swf format on my webpage but with the flv on my server for it is pointless trying to insert monster flv's on a webpage for others may not be able to play it.
any thoughts would be great
