You can load flv files from within flash, it is the native video format for flash. So all you need to do is pass in the file name for the movie and load the relevant movie within your ActionScript. Be aware that I do not think that you can load a movie from a different domain than yoiur own.

>- see footer for list info -< Thanks Simon but I am playing FLV files through the Movie player. So I need to pass a variable like: http://www.somedaomain.com/movie/mymovie.flv and the player use this rather than the one that gets embedded when you create a player for specific clip using Flash 8 Sorry if I was not clear.
