My experience is that you can't close the default vp (video player) in an FLVPlayback instance, so you *never* use it. What were they thinking?!
Before you load a video, you set the vp index to whatever you want, just not zero! myflv.activeVideoPlayerIndex = 1 myflv.source ="hippo.flv" Then when you're done... myflv.closeVideoPlayer(1); When working with active indexes, i find this page incredibly useful to find out what FLVPlayback properties are affected by activeVideoPlayerIndex... http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/fl/video/FLVPlayback.html#activeVideoPlayerIndex On your side note ("I can't find anything in the docs on adding new instances of VideoPlayer Class"), you don't have to do anything to "add a new instance", all you do is set the flvplayback's activeVideoPlayerIndex to a new number, and it's ready to load a new vid. If you want to see that new vid, set the visibleVideoPlayerIndex to the same number. cheers chichilatte On 23 March 2010 09:13, Andrew Kenward <a...@milkybrain.co.uk> wrote: > Hi David > > when you .close() the connection to the netstream object/video it stops the > download and you lose the connection.
