I am working on development of an RoR site that needs to display a small streaming video on a page. My first choice is to use Flash 8 and the off the shelf skins for playback controls. Anyone have experience using this and deploying to RoR? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''m appreciative of the replies I got on this topic. Part of the
problem has been that I can''t really test the outcome locally, SVN and
a file repository are in use on a web server development environment.
Here''s how I ended up handling it. I''m using swfobject.js to
ensure
browser/platform compatibility. Repository and live files are on
separate domains
1. upload flv to web server where live files reside
2. Create FLA file
3. import flv from webserver location, using absolute URL (http://
www.domainname.com/swf/video.flv
4. specify skin using relative URL (/swf/SkinName.swf)
5. publish swf
6. use swfobject-compatible code in rhtml file:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashcontent">
This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("/swf/SWFname.swf", "SWFame",
"320", "280",
"8", "#ffffff");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
7. commit files to web server repository
8. update to live webserver
