How does Youtube flash player work?
-
Hi, I have a project that is similar in principle to youtube and I was wondering about a main point on how Youtube's flash video work. All of us have seen the small youtube player that appears in the web page, and we can use it to play the video, the question is: Is this player a static object that loads the video from the youtube site? OR is it a dynamic object that is generated by the Youtube server based on the content that it is displaying? In other words: When viewing youtube videos, do we open the same flash player object that knows (by supplied parameters) what video to load from the server, or do we open a flash player that has the video embedded into it? In other words: Can we create a flash object that is designed to load content somewhere from a server based on parameters passed to it? and if so, how can we pass those parameters to the flash object? I am asking this because I want to create a flash that is capable of loading content from a sever based on parameters supplied somehow, so the flash is static, but the content that it displays is dynamic. Any answers? Thanks
