Inserting .FLV file into a page
I am having trouble inserting a streaming .FLV file into my Kentico site. I have googled the issue and have not found a solution that works. Has anyone else had this problem or have a solution?

Thanks a lot,
forrester

RE:Inserting .FLV file into a page
Hi,

I don't think you can embed a .flv into html.

Instead you create the .flv, import it into Flash and then create a .swf. I've done this before using a media component built-in to Flash Pro. It also includes a basic player to allow your users to start and stop the video.

If you don't have Flash, try Swish Video.

RE:Inserting .FLV file into a page
thanks for your response. I was trying to avoid using a third-party application.

After a little Googling, I found a javascript that worked. I did, however, run into some issues with the .flv file within an aspx page, so I made just a normal html page and linked to it.
