Hi, I am working on a website for an artist www.helmutnewtonladiesnight.com
when home.htm loads, a white box flashes (maybe FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf?)
before the video starts playing. is there a way to make this box black or
invisible?
also, the artist doesn't want the controls to show at all. is there a way to
autoplay the video and hide the controls?
Thanks.

Add this to the AC_FL_RunContent() and FlashVars param sections:

'bgcolor','#ff0000',

Add this to the embed section:

bgcolor="#00ff00"

Not that I'm aware of. Apparently DW's FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
requires a skin file. If you have Flash, you can create your own .swf
that does not requre a skin.

Of course, I meant to use #000000 in both of those sections. The colors
I posted were left over from my experimenting to see the difference
with JavaScript turned on/off.

Thanks, that did the trick.

Hi
Can I please butt in on this link.
I too am having the same issue (www.netgoose.co.uk any of the main links to
galleries) but am not a code pro, just a photographer out of his depth.
I need to know where I find the particular documents that contain the code
that repairs this issue. I'm using Dreamweaver 8 and the Flash Players are
produced with a plug in in Lightroom.
Thanks so much
John
