How to reuse the swf file with multiple FLV's??

You want to use what is known as a query string. This is my
implementation.

Here is what you would need in your Actionscript (this is AS3, BTW):

var vidName:String = "";

function loaderComplete(myEvent:Event)
{
this.myParams=this.loaderInfo.parameters;
this.myParamsLoaded=true;
this.useParams();
}

function useParams()
{
vidName = this.myParams.myVideo;
vidName = vidName.slice(1,vidName.length);
debugTxt.text = vidName;
LoadXML();
}

var myLoaderInfo=new Object();
myLoaderInfo.myParamsLoaded=false;
myLoaderInfo.loaderComplete=loaderComplete;
myLoaderInfo.useParams=useParams;

this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
myLoaderInfo.loaderComplete);
//End of Actionscript


Later in your Actionscript you can tack on the vidName to your RTMP
path.


In your HTML file, you need code to take the query string and turn it
into a FlashVar. I use javascript for the query string grab, and
swfobject to make it FlashVar and embed my Flash Player. Here is the
HTML code for that: (******take note***** replace all of the '-' in the 'document-location-search' statement with '.' in the code below. Apparently it is a censored word when it has the periods?)

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.myVideo = document-location-search;
var params = {};
var attributes = {};
attributes.name = "fmsVideo";
swfobject.embedSWF("VideoPlayer.swf", "myAlternativeContent", "1024",
"768", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>

So you can see here that the FlashVar in the HTML ("myVideo") is the
same as what my SWF is looking for in the line "vidName =
this.myParams.myVideo;".


When everything is in place, your URL will look like this:
http://mydomain.com/flvplayer.html?someflvname

Hope that helps! Enjoy!!!
