4. Customize the skin of the flash video player (optional).

5. Click "Publish" button to generate a web FLV player and other related files (Note: if you want to get a separate playlist file, please check "Out File")

6. Upload all the published files except the index.html file, to the same folder of your web server.

7. Embed the generated player in your webpage with the embed code below(Add JavaScript in blogger (blogspot) post):
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashcontent">Player will show here</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('mwplayer.swf','player','500','450','9');
so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
so.addParam('quality','high');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>


Note: 1. mwplayer.swf is the actual flash video player. If it resides in another directory, then point to it with a relative path (e.g. video/mwplayer.swf) or an absolute path (e.g. http://www.yourdomain.com/video/mwplayer.swf ).

8. The FLV player will appear on your website and the FLV will not auto play when the page starts to load.
