The js method to change videos looks like this:</p> <pre><code>function ChangeVideo(videoIndex) { //Video Location String var vidLocation = "screencast_url="; //Determines what video to load switch (videoIndex) { case 1: //Change Video Location vidLocation += "myVideo.flv"; break; case 2: //Change Video Location vidLocation += "myVideo2.flv"; break; case 3: //Change Video Location vidLocation += "myVideo3.flv"; break; case 4: //Change Video Location vidLocation += "myVideo4.flv"; break; } //Change value of flashplayer FlashVar $('#flash').val(vidLocation); } </code></pre> <p>The video looks to have loaded correctly and all the information seems to be correct, but the video will not play when I hit the play button (Current video keeps playing).</p> <p>How would you load another video into a flash player after it has been loaded?</p> <p><strong>EDIT2</strong> If I try this:</p> <pre><code>//Creates empty values var flashvars = vidLocation; var params = {}; var attributes = {}; //Change video swfobject.embedSWF("videoplayer.swf", "video_content", "300", "120", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes); </code></pre> <p>Instead of :</p> <pre><code>//Change value of flashplayer FlashVar $('#flash').val(vidLocation); </code></pre> <p>Which seems to reload the player now, but it still does not play.</p>
