Special license(fee) for embedding flash.ocx?

Hello,

On the web and also this forum I read a lot of people talking about embedding the FLASH.OCX file IN an application, but there was NEVER an answer when it comes to questions about licensing.

After a long period of developing and testing educational software for personal use, I want to release it for sale as commercial software.

To protect the .SWF files, I build a wrapper in Delphi and put them encrypted in a resource file that is compiled with the executable.

After executing the application, I use the Delphi F-In-Box developers library component to load the movieclips.

By default F-In-Box loads the FLASH[...].OCX file from the Windows Systemfolder\Macromed\Flash, who comes with a standard ActiveX installation for the Adobe Flash Player. But not all .OCX files were loading the movieclips as it should be.

For example ActiveX-version 19_0_0_226 and 20_0_0_235 worked fine, but the latest (20_0_0_267) shows a white screen.

To get a stable application and preventing a lot of trouble for customers, a solution is to EMBED a correct working FLASH.OCX file in the application.

My serious question to the Adobe Staff here is, does Adobe have a special software license or a royalty fee to fulfill working this way, like the way companies make use of Flash technology in their devices? Or is there a license for distributing the FLASH.OCX file?

Regards,

HJM.
