I tried to play a video file in html file by following code

<object width="304" height="206">

<param name="movie" value="http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf"></param>

<param name="flashvars" value="src=http%3A%2F%2Fosmf.org%2Fmockup%2Fvideos%2Fosmf_noletterbox.flv&controlBarAutoHide=false&backgroundColor=FF7112"></param>

<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>

<embed src="http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="304" height="206" flashvars="src=http%3A%2F%2Fosmf.org%2Fmockup%2Fvideos%2Fosmf_noletterbox.flv&controlBarAutoHide=false&backgroundColor=FF7112"></embed>

</object>

But it was failing to load the video file. i assume that it was failing to download the FlashMediaPlayback.swf  from adobe.com.

Could anybody help on this.

    The OSMF project was retired back in 2011.  We no longer host the OSMF-related SWF files that you're referencing.  You could presumably extract those binaries from the OSMF project at osmf.org and host them on your own server (adjusting the links above accordingly); however, I'd recommend that you take a look at solutions that are actively maintained.
