Masking Video Component?

[jcalabro]

Hi there!
just a quick question
i was wondering if it is possible to mask a video thats playing in the flash 8 component. i had tried placing the video in a MC, then using another MC to mask, and it failed to work. any ideas? and is this even possible? thanks

hi! here i am again
well sorry i posted so quick, but i got it to work using setMask() on the two clips...
athough i was still wondering if this is possible without setting the mask dynamically?
thanks in advance
