Back
what i like about this solution compared to swf playback (i'm not
talking about flash 8 since i had no chance to lay my hand on it yet) is
the you can playback a video with 25fps inside a flash movie running at
12fps (for instamce).
you'r right - eric, a progressbar is a bit tricky. but you can do it. as
long as you know the length of the movie - which you can evaluate using
the meta data (with flv 1.2).
the end detection works fine - it just displays different values in
different browsers. you can track what happens at the end of a movie by
using the status command.
on the other hand i heard today that the quality of flash8 flvs i way
better...
