Get YouTube URL support for the flash FLVPlayback component…
This tutorial was a life saver. Basically, i needed to play a youtube video (my own) using the FLVPlayback component, but without downloading the source .flv and playing it locally.
Although this can be achieved using actionscript alone, YouTube has recently changed the way they serve .flv’s to other domains. The traditional way (get-video.php) doesn’t work through flash applications, so most of the tutorials out there are out of date and don’t work.
This tutorial is working, and saves a lot of hassle. Definitely check it out.
