Test of h.264 Video Playing in Flash Player via Blog Space

This is going to be a test of whether or not we can possibly use blog space to do some flash video a la YouTube. I had to manually place some javascript code in this blog post (via SFTP transfer) to embed the FlowPlayer in my blog page. I have a folder called "video" in my blog folder now that I can upload to by clicking the Upload File button in my blog interface, then selecting Set Upload Path. From there I choose and put "video" in the field next to it. I can then either make a post around that file or get the HTML to put it into my blog post.

BTW, to view the video, you would need to download the beta Flash 9 plugin that supports h.264, called "MovieStar". You can get that here:

Note that it requires that you uninstall previous versions of the Flash player (see instructions on that page).
