Hi friends, sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
What I want is to put a linked video inside of a SWF file.
On my web server these three files will exist:
- index.html
- gate.swf
- ratherbigvideo.avi
This is what will be in index.html:
<embed src="gate.swf?usefil=ratherbigvideo.avi"></embed>
When you enter the web page the video (.avi) will start playing through the flash file (.swf).
And if I were to change the querystring sent to the flash file to another video file, that one would play instead, regardless of file extension (and codec used).
Now I ask you: Is this possible to do?
