for progressive and simple streaming videoDisplay is fine. i find it too limiting to build a robust streaming system (something that needs to try different ports switch to rtmpt etc) and we ended up writing our own wrappers for netstream and netconnection and extending UIComponent and attching the Video object to that so it can be used in flex.

Hi, I need to create a YouTube style video control. What is the best starting point – Video or VideoDisplay? I've seen this code which automatically downloads a preview of the video, but is it the best solution? http://www.flashcomguru.com/tutorials/progressive_preview.cfm Essentially I want to show a thumbnail of the movie, then allow the user to click the thumbnail to continue watching the whole movie. Cheers, Mark
