hey everyone. I'm trying to play an flv file on a webpage and no luck so far.

Here's the code below that I'm using:

Code: [ Select ]
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="1280" height="1114" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="movie" value="player.swf" />
    <param name="FlashVars" value="flvURL=final.flv&ControlPanelColor=0xccff00&buttonColor=0x000000&ControlPanelPosition=0&showControlPanel=1&ShowtimeColor=0xffffff&bAutoPlay=1&bAutoRepeat=0&BufferTime=5&tmeColor=0xffffff&loaColor=0x666666&GroundColor=0x000000&conNum=5&bShowtime=1" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
    <param name="scale" value="noscale" />
    <param name="salign" value="lt" />
    <embed src="player.swf" width="1280" height="1114" align="middle" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" scale="noscale" salign="lt" FlashVars="flvURL=final.flv&ControlPanelColor=0xccff00&buttonColor=0x000000&ControlPanelPosition=0&showControlPanel=1&ShowtimeColor=0xffffff&bAutoPlay=1&bAutoRepeat=0&BufferTime=5&tmeColor=0xffffff&loaColor=0x666666&GroundColor=0x000000&conNum=5&bShowtime=1" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />

I really don't know much about this stuff but...

Why would you want to display an .FLV file instead of .SWF?

Have you checked to ensure your host supports the playback of FLV? Not all hosts do.

Because FLV streams, where Flash doesn't.
