I am JAVA J2EE Developer. And i really confused how to start with creating the flash video player and use the video's of RED 5. Any kind of suggestion will be appreciable. Thanks Hi James,

They are now obfuscating the URL to the FLVs in such a way that it makes it difficult to play them in anything other than their embeddable player. Perhaps try this with your own set of videos. Let me know if that helps. -James Hi Jason,

I tired your example 2 ways, 1/ with the src link you had 2/ with the src localized. both times sdk 3 parses the file correctly into a swf. However both times all i receive is a panel with an area for the list and the display, BUT NO video or vidoes in the list to choose from. Logically i think it has something to do with data but i cant seem to figure it out. Any thoughts would be a great help. Thanks Jason. my setup is as follows ubuntu/gedit (for hand coding)/ terminal for parsing/firefox for viewing Dumb Question of the week.
