Yeah, I saw that you were referencing the FLV externally to the movie:

mnstories_20060221.swf">
and that got me thinking it might be a generic player of some kind.
There are a few free ones out there, eg:

http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/

(audio only, but nice in that it uses XSPF)

One can also generate them dynamically with Ming - see the tutorial at:

http://klaus.geekserver.net/flash/streaming.html

(not pretty, hence my question!)

My friend has FFMPEGX and possibly Squeeze, so encoding shouldn't be  
a problem.

It would be *great* if you'd post the file somewhere for download -
credits would of course be given :)

Indeed *sigh*

All the best,

Thanks everybody!
We didn't train him, he's just weird and we exploit him. :-)

My Flash player is created using Flash's own video player tools.
I should put it in the files section here for anyone that wants to
use it. I create the .FLV (Flash video) files using Sorenson Squeeze.
It's all a little involved but works nicely, having it embedded.
Then I include a Quicktime for the RSS feed since most RSS clients
(with the huge exception of FireANT) don't care for Flash.

I second Steve G's recommendation of audioblog.com -- makes
life real easy for posting audio and video in Flash to a blog.

cheers,
