i don't know what FI is, are you interested in progressive video (downloading file and playing it) or streaming file using flash streaming server, where only playing part gets loaded and whole movie is not stored on user's computer.

hey, egoldy,

it would help if you could post what you've tried so far, so folks can see where the difficulty may lie.. In case you've tried nothing, I just copied and pasted this from the help file (always a good place to start):

To play back an external FLV file in a Flash document:
1. With the document open in the Flash authoring tool, in the Library panel (Window > Library) select New Video from the Library options menu to create a video object.
2. Drag a video object from the Library panel onto the Stage; this creates a video object instance.
3. With the video object selected on the Stage, in the Property inspector (Window > Properties) enter my_video in the Instance Name text box.
4. Open the Components panel (Window > Development Panels > Components), and drag a TextArea component to the Stage.
5. With the TextArea object selected on the Stage, enter status in the Instance Name text box in the Property inspector.
6. Select Frame 1 in the Timeline, and open the Actions panel (Window > Development Panels > Actions).
7. Add the following code to the Actions panel:

PHP Code:

// Create a NetConnection object
var netConn:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// Create a local streaming connection
netConn.connect(null);
// Create a NetStream object and define an onStatus() function
var netStream:NetStream = new NetStream(netConn);
netStream.onStatus = function(infoObject) {
  status_txt.text += "Status (NetStream)" + newline;
  status_txt.text += "Level: "+infoObject.level + newline;
  status_txt.text += "Code: "+infoObject.code + newline;
};
// Attach the NetStream video feed to the Video object
my_video.attachVideo(netStream);
// Set the buffer time
netStream.setBufferTime(5);
// Begin playing the FLV file
netStream.play("videoFile.flv"); 


hope that might help get ya started...

I'd say the same. Did you make your video an flv. yet? lol

Still, for the play and stop buttons, make event handlers that will trigger the NetStream:
for example

playVideo_mc.onPress=function(){
NetStream.play("yourvideo.flv");
}

hey, egoldy,

in the help file, look for NetStream.bytesLoaded. If I understand your question correctly, there's an example that's just what you're looking for..

I mean how can i create custom the FLV player like FI flash video player.

for example .
the stream loading progress..
the volume ...

if you are using mx 2k4 pro = you may be able to swing the mediaPlayback component - which has many of the features you are looking for built in. (though it has some problems).

I would second the use of the NetStream/NetConnection method. for advanced controls - refer to the NetStream properties in the help section.
