Embedding a swg file
Movies were sent to us as .wmv files. Ick.
Found shareware to convert to .swg (and other formats). Slick.
Video runs for creator of .swg, but when embedded in Web page, only a big white empty space is visible. No click.
Is there some additional file that's being created that needs to be posted on the Web server too? Some trick?

Re: Embedding a swg file
Don't think so. I looked at the links just now, but I'm not quite clear on how they might help.
I should say that, on both a Mac and a Windows machine, .wmv files have been successfully converted to .swg files that played in Flash Player on the respective machines. But, if embedded in an HTML page on the server, the video wouldn't play. My assumption is that there's something else that needs to be on the server that we're not uploading.
