Hi Kyle
Thanks for your response - did it help?  Well, sort of...
I did look at the code generator, but could not figure out how much of
the object/embed code should be used, so gave up pretty quickly.  I
guess i was hoping for a "yes it's easy" response, but looking at the
differences between youtube and the bbc payer content, I'm not
surprised I didn't get the answer i was hoping for!  I'm relatively
inexperienced with all this web development, but found implementing
the swfcode pretty straightforward with help from the FAQs and
samples.
Thanks anyway - think I will leave the code as is for this clip, and
just use swfobject for flash and embedded youtube video.
Regards
Martin
