I'm looking to play a flash video hosted on a remote website. I've tried the following (and profuse google-ing):
In source of page on http://fakesite1.com/player.jsp:
<embed src = "FlashPlayer.swf?file=http://fakesite2.net/video.flv" />
I can browse to http://fakesite2.net/video.flv and ensure it's there, but the player comes back "movie not loaded" (on right-click) on fakesite1. My initial guess is that this might be some sort of security feature... is it possible to play a video hosted on a remote site?
