Used Flix8 to convert .wmv to .swf - How do you control flash video?

    Hi,

    I have a .wmv file that I wanted to convert to flash b/c the video wasn't showing up for people who were browsing the site using Firefox or Netscape. I used a peice of software called Flix 8 (www.on2.com) and the conversion seems to work great. The only problem/question I have now is that when I insert the flash video into the webpage, I don't see any options to allow the user to push play / stop to control the video - as you can do with .wmv files. Are all flash videos "autoplay" or does anyone know how to add controls?

    Thanks!
    :)

    Thanks - but is there anyway to actually put the controls on the screen so that for those who don't know to right-click, they can just press play, or stop, or rewind, etc?

    If you bought flix8 and have no plans to switch to another product, I can code a custom designed player for you, you send me a psd of the player and I add the needed code too have this player control the swf files generated by flix8.

    Regards.

    To control flash video on web page, you just need a web-based Flash video player, which is swf file that can be created in Adobe Flash.
