Solved the first item. In other versions of Rev, it works fine to set the filename of a quicktime player to something of the form, "ftp://....";. Doing so in a revlet will lock everything up. But when I switched to "http://... ", all worked fine. Streaming begins and the video plays fine.

I'd still like to hear thoughts on the YouTube item, though.

Thanks.

Two questions.

I am trying to set the filename of a quicktime player to a video stored on a remote server, but there appears to be a bug in this functionality. I see the first frame of the video, but the revlet locks up thereafter (along with the entire browser). Works fine in the development environment. Works fine in a standalone (i.e. earlier versions of Rev). Is this a known bug? Setting the filename of a player to a local file also works fine while running a revlet. I've only tested this in Firefox on a PC under XP.

In the past, setting a quicktime player to view a remotely-stored video would cause the player to start streaming the video immediately... even if the video wasn't set up specifically to stream or stored on a streaming server. Nice feature.

Secondly, any ideas on how to show a YouTube video in a revlet?

Thanks.
