I posted this on my blog, but also felt like sharing this here as well. I don't
remember reading about anyone having done this on the list but if you guys
already
knew this please ignore.
You may want to follow along with this one as it's somewhat interesting.
1. Create a new Flash document inside of Flash IDE
2. Create a new MovieClip Symbol in the library and give it a linkage id of
`VideoPlayer`
3. Put some random content or scribbles into the newly created symbol, works
best
as an animation to show the concept
4. Drag a new instance of the FLVPlayback component onto the stage and set
its
content part to anything you like, an actual FLV file, or just leave it blank
if you
like
5. Publish and observe the strangeness
It seems that the FLVPlayback component doesn't really look for the actual
VideoPlayer class/component and just searches the library for anything with a
linkage ID of `VideoPlayer` which it is happy to just attach into itself and
play.
I've been playing with this for like a week and have made some interesting code
that
lets me capitalize on this.
Anyway, happy Friday and Cheers.
