Dave, I've installed LAMS on a Win 2003 Server and I can see what you mean, but I can't figure out why this won't work with *exactly* the same html chunk than in a linux box. Puzzles me.

However, I found that on the logs the actual .flv file doesn't get called:

The FLV player (player_flv_maxi.swf) file gets called but the movie doesn't.

So this might be an issue with the player though. This is the player we use http://is.gd/cr3cS Perhaps you could see if they have a new one?

The other option is to replace the flv player for another one. We use this one as it suits the GPL license but depending on the usage you give it, you can use others like JW player

Thanks,

ernie
