RE: Dynamically setting

Hi Stefan,

I was under the weather yesterday so sorry for the delay in response.

Interestingly enough, when I play the second video and omit the .flv from
the path, it works. It also works for successive videos. But, if I attempt
to append the .flv extension on to it, I get error 1000.

Is this a bug?

Bill P.

Hi Bill,
It makes no difference where the video was recorded.

Could you try the following for me (using FLVPlayback):
Play your first video as before. Then when you want to play the second
video, omit the .flv when you set the contentpath, so instead of ...+
videoName + ".flv"; do
+ videoName;

What happens now?

Stefan
