I gave up on youtube's flv player. I downloaded the SWF player ( watch-vfl148687.swf ) from youtube's page but I don't know how to make it play the video.flv. The player shows on the webpage but the video won't play. I am pretty sure that the variable that I'm using on flashvars is not the right one. Anyway, what I did was to use an open source FLV player from [flv-player.net...] ( I downloaded the maxi type of player) and then used the ff code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="player_flv_maxi.swf" width="650" height="407">
<param name="movie" value="player_flv_maxi.swf" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
<param name="FlashVars" value="flv=video.flv&width=650&height=407&autoplay=0" />
Take note of the file paths and change the video.flv to the name of your video. You can also edit the height and width to the size that you want. Hope this helps.
If you know though how to use youtube's own flv player, please share.
