Importing a video into flash via URL

[missing-score]

I'm looking to create a flash file similiar to what Youtube and other video providers use where a dynamic URL is used to load a video into a flash movie. I have looked online but I cant seem to find anything that I want, and I wondered if anyone here may be able to link me to a resource where I could learn.

Does anyone have any reference at all? I have been looking but i just cant seem to find anything that I want. I'm looking to import a video dynamically from a URL.

Hmm I know flash has a getURL function and you can use a GET method. Perhaps you can get the URL of the current page and some how pass that into flash?

getURL actually acts like a hyperlink.

I know a little bit of flash, like how to import a querystring from a file and use it... You can also use parameters passed to the movie, but I haven't yet been able to work out how to import a video file from a remote source into an SWF movie on the fly.
