Hi

I need something very simple that in AS2 was very simple to make but with AS3 I'm not sure how to do.

Basically on the stage I have put the FLVPlayback component. I have selected a skin and put in the url to a video and uploaded it with the skin file. This works as intended.

However... I need to pass the video file to be played dynamically... In the past, with as2, I always loaded flash something like this: flash.swf?video=path/somefile.flv
and then in flash did something like player.source = _root.video. Worked great in AS2, not so much in AS3 :)

so basically I need help making an AS3 version of my above code, Please :)
