Hello

I have a video player on this page: http://www.gamingz.c...anew/test2.html

The player gets a playlist from an xml file, but whenever I update the playlist xml file with a new video, it doesn't seem to update the list in Firefox. I'm guessing that it's just reloading from local cache again, so, is it possible to have flash simply force a refresh on it, so that it loads the updated xml playlist? Refreshing the browsing, and closing and opening again doesn't seem to work.

Thanks

generate a random number in flash

eg.

var cache = random(9999);
xmlData.load("http://www.yourdomain.com/yourxml.xml?cache=" + cache);

Everytime the xml is loaded the URL is always different..

Oh, I see. Thanks man. So it sort of tricks flash into thinking there's a different url, therefore making it reload.

Sorry for double post.

My friend and I are making this progressive video player (http://www.pixel2lif..._player_part_2/) and we can't figure out how to get it to not auto-play. Can anyone point us in the right direction?

Thanks

after the ns.play action put a ns.stop
