host a .flv file on a browser

[Krupa]

Hi,

I am trying to run a .flv file from my compact framework application
for a WIndows CE 5.0 device. I have the flash plugin from Vibren. I was
able to play a .swf file by embedding it in a html page and hosting
that page on a web control in my application. However, I am not able to
do the same with a .flv file. I tried wrapping the .flv as a .swf file
and then launching it on the browser, but it didn't work either.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Krupa

Have you asked Vibren support?

Yes I did. They were able to play the swf wrapped flv on our device
(Windows CE 5.0) that we sent them using a simple C++ application. They
used the following code to do that.

m_ShockwaveFlash.LoadMovie(0, _T("file:///FlashPluginTester.swf"));

I am trying to launch the flash player on a browser so that I can avoid
writing a C++ wrapper for the flash plug-in. BTW, I am doing coding in
C++ on CF 2.0. I am able to do that for a swf file but not for a
flv/flv wrapped up as a swf.

Do you have any ideas?

Thasnk,
Krupa
