So I am unsure if you did actually ever implement the SWFObject 2.x notation on your pages anywhere. I see the "small" swf at the bottom using a static embed, but nothing which tries to implement the video player.
Let's assume the Flash player install is all happy. Below is the equivalent 2.x notation for your 1.x video player. Try pasting this in a new html file and place it in the same folder as your original page (to ensure your relative pathing to your flv works) as see how you go. (Note I am pointing to the google hosted version of SWFObject so you don;t have to upload any other files to test this) <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" " http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <script type="text/javascript" src=" http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js";></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var flashvars = {}; flashvars.file = "../v/Lib/Nature/Surrounding/Fauna/Birds/Hummingbird/100_1107_converted.flv"; var params = {}; params.allowfullscreen = "true"; params.allowscriptaccess = "always"; var attributes = {}; attributes.id = "player"; attributes.name = "player"; swfobject.embedSWF("Player.swf", "preview", "800", "600", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes); </script> </head> <body> <div id="preview"> alt content goes here </div> </body> </html> I used the code generator located below to: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/generator I recommend you use this as it will help ensure all your code is as it should be. Let me know how you go with that.
