[flashpro] Best practice for creating FLV video files

[elusive]

Hi Stephen,

i took a look at the code and it's basically what the flash help says  
- so it wont make sense to paste it into this email.
simply hit help/actionscript dictionary

what you need is
video class
NetConnection Class
and NetStream Class

here's the example from video class/ Video.attachVideo:

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(my_nc);
my_video.attachVideo(ns); // my_video is a Video object on the Stage
ns.play("myVideo.flv");

it's realy simple.

but dont forget to put a video object onto the stage. see "To place a  
Video object on the Stage:..." in video class

hope this helps

elu
