November 9, 201213 yr Hello I am involved in developing a website for our client's intranet. All of our client's PCs run IE6 (lovely). We are creating 3D animated sequences which we are currently compressing, using Adobe Media Encoder, as H.264 in an F4V wrapper. We then change the file extension to '.flv' which enables it to play in our FLVplayback object (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=00002331.html) in the web page using the SWFObject (https://github.com/swfobject/swfobject) Javascript component. We have found recently that we are getting an unreliable experience for the user playing the movies. Buffering errors and the Browser incorrectly drawing the playback controls skin. We would like to explore a more robust, but visually elegant, approach to embedding our movies into our web pages. Unfortunately FlowPlayer does not support IE6 but something along these lines would be good. We are quite competent developers and would welcome any suggestions for an alternative approach. We look forward to your suggestions. Many thanks.
