Creating FLV and referencing paths

« on: January 22, 2008, 12:51:22 PM »

I've got Flash 8 and I'm trying to create an FLV. I've exported the FLV and can drop it into Flash. When I do that I can follow the wizard and it creates the swf. I setup the file to use a local file which appears as filename.swf in the properties of the FLV component. However, when I drop the files onto my webserver, it can't find the file even though it's there. Any ideas?

What size is the swf?

I downloaded what was on the server and it was 33k but totally blank.

The SWF should (so I thought) call the .flv file.

Looking at Firebug, it shows the .flv as being missing.

The FLV should be at http://www.simonhughes.co.uk/pete/distribution/flash/thomson_distribution1.flv but doesn't appear.
