Is it possible to create a flash movie player that will take the url of a movie file (.mpeg, .avi, .mov, etc) and play it, or does the swf have to be compiled with the movie file embedded in it? I would like to create/purchase a player that has a standard 'wrapper' that can play any move file passed into it. Is this possible?

Adobe Flash (formerly Macromedia Flash) is a cross-platform multimedia and software platform used to embed animations, video, and interactive applications into web pages and desktop and mobile applications and games. Flash displays text, vector and raster graphics to provide animations, video games and applications. It allows streaming of audio and video, and can capture mouse, keyboard, microphone and camera input. The ActionScript programming language allows creation of interactive animations, video games, web applications, desktop applications and mobile applications.
