Google Video Embeded into flash?

[darklitch]

It has been a while since i have posted on this site. So I have made a great flash site, right? I have a few videos I would like to put on the site, but i don't want to host them on my server because of their size. Google has a video service and allows you to post your videos. Once you upload your video to google, they give you the code to put it on your website:

 
<embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-5859918505941121077&hl=en" flashvars=""> </embed>

So I fired up Flash Professional 8 and put the premade loader component in. for the ContentPath for the loader, I added "http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-5859918505941121077&hl=en", tested it out, and got the error message:

*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
SecurityDomain 'http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-5859918505941121077&hl=en' tried to access incompatible context 'file:///H|/Projects/FLA/dirtbikeatv2.swf'

Is there a workaround for this? I was really looking forward to letting google host my videos, but it does'ent look possible.

So you are trying to put the google flash video inside your flash website?
I think you could get this to work, but don't use that URL to the video that you were using. You would need to load the URL that ends in .flv and embed it into the flash website.

i would recommend looking to another hosting service; ie. youtube, that is going to be less security conscience than google

it is possable

i wanted battle royale on my website so i put it on google and used this code to embed it on my site

<object width="470" height="335"><param name="movie" value="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=1225842003597524246"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=1225842003597524246" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="470" height="335" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>

works perfectly

i sugest u take out the &HL=en
that just shows you are obviously logged into Gmail at the time. and it doesnt help while embeding things
