I posted in more detail in another message, but pretty much any way I tried didn't work. Even the play="true" or play="false" setting didn't help. The only way that did was to put the reference to the swf directly in the declaration for the video player.
I did find an _ugly_ workaround that will do for now however: I load a small
swf movie in the declaration, and then on the canvas.oninit event, I call
player.setAttribute("filetoplay", datasources.getFirstChild()....(until it
points to the real movie URL));
in the player, the handler for onfiletoplay does:
this.setSource(this.filetoplay);
this.play();
and it works. It seems that something has to be loaded immediately, after that
you can change it around as much as you'd like. I expect you can do the
setSource directly, I just use filetoplay because that was how I wrote the
player in the first place.
If you need more info, let me know. If I remember and have time next week I'll
write up a testcase and submit a bug report for it. It's was quite a pain
until I figured the workaround.
