Media Controller?

This forum is for the Flash Communications server or Flash Media Server.

1. Look to the Flash forums for assistance creating buttons.

2. You can import various video file formats into a Flash document and
publish. This is called embedded video and has many weaknesses leaving it to
the status of very short clips. You can load external video from a file or
from the Flash Media server and that needs to be FLV.
