Thanks!

I looked at the JW Player article, but I don’t see anything there indicating play start/stop times.

I tried the code in the blog (I had to rename one of the video variables, since Flash told me there was a conflict), and got my video to play, but the blog doesn’t seem to be using the Wowza server, just http, so I can’t play just one clip from a long video.

I really don’t want to invest the time to learn how to program Flash, since I have no need to do so. Really, all I want is to play defined clips from long videos, using just the simplest possible player. That’s it.

I feel like a guy trying to explain to General Motors why it would be a good idea to offer a radio as an option in their cars. I keep getting steered towards “how-to” magazines.

If I _EVER_ get this working, I promise to create a documented “hello world” example. It could become famous.
