Hi all,
I installed the tshockwave package from within delphi.
When I run flash movies created with swish (trial version), they run just fine (i.e xyz.movie := 'ddd.swf'; xyz.play;).
BUT
when I try the same with .swf movies made with macromedia flash, the movies do not appear to run, or atleast, I don't see anything happening.
(my swish trial period ranout, so I have to use flash!!).
Is there any setting from within the flash.fla file I should set? Is there another way to call a .swf movie made with flash?
Can anyone help me?

you can use a TWebbrowser and display the flash movie there (supposing IE has flash installed)

dear whorsrdaddy,
I followed your instructions (twebBrowser.navigate ..etc), but only the swf files made with swish worked. The swf files made with macromedia flash are not playing.
I even placed code in the onclick method of the player to check the frame number and it returns -1 for the films that are not playing.
I even tried exporting the film as html for the twebbrowser, that still did not play.
Any more suggestions?
Yomi.
 
stupid question maybe, but are your flash files working if you open them with internet explorer? Twebbrowser uses the same dll as IE to show web pages...
