Help with Flowplayer code

    This code (below) works successfully inside <video> tags as a flash fallback solution.
    Now that I have the Flowplayer installed, I'm wondering if this part of this line needs to be changed:
    data="http://releases.flowplayer.org/swf/flowplayer-3.2.1.swf"
    Code (markup):
    Can you please tell me what that (data="...) part of the line is for?

    <object class="vjs-flash-fallback" width="640" height="264" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://releases.flowplayer.org/swf/flowplayer-3.2.1.swf">
    <param name="movie" value="[var.base_url]//flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.16.swf" />
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
    <param name="flashvars" value='config={"playlist":["[var.base_url]/[var.thumb_file]", {"url": "[var.base_url]//uploads/[var.video_play]","autoPlay":false,"autoBuffering":true}]}' />
    <!-- Image Fallback. Typically the same as the poster image. -->
    <img src="[var.base_url]/[var.thumb_file]" width="640" height="264" alt="Poster Image" title="No video playback capabilities." />
    </object>
    Code (markup):
    Thanks

    Hello

    This looks like HTML5 code to me. Flash is the usual popular fallback option.

    Here is a note I came across regarding support for flowplayer:
