I have a swf that loads multiple swfs and is a large movie size (1024 X 768 pixels). Due to the fact that this movie requires initiation in a browser at fullscreen mode (which is evidently tricky), I am playing around with the idea of publishing it as a projector file. The actual swf in the projector file will only be the loader swf-- the other files will be downloaded from the web as they are loaded. I have never used a projector before. Are there security issues with projectors? I am also concerned with the large download size of projectors.

Also, if I were to require that a user first downloads and installs a standalone Flash player, how do I initiate the movie? Do I simply code a link to the swf on an html page and I'm done? The advantage of this method seems to be that I wouldn't have to worry about different browsers and how they render the swf.

Any comments on the best way to publish large-dimension swfs is appreciated.
