Hello

Is there a way to have this Flash video (3 seconds) play on my home page
without the control panel...the file is a small version (121 x 63) of our logo,
meant to just play once on every load of home page then stop, by itself...no
controls.

How do I get rid of this or should I turn this into a swf file, but then
that's quite a bit more hassle isn't it?

Thanks very much

You don't say which version of Flash you are using, but there are two easy
solutions in Flash 7 ? and I would imagine the same in Flash 8, I just don't
have experience with that.

If using the Media Components read the help files. There is a way to hide the
controls. Or just use the playback component. It doesn't have any controls.

Or you can use the NetStream class. Good tutorials on how to use that can be
found at gotoAndLearn.com. Of course that tutorial is all about how to make
your own player, but you can skip all the parts about how to add the controls!
