Hi,

I'm having a weird problem.

I've installed SWFTOOLS with JWplayer, SWFObject2. Everything is installed correctly. I've set the filter up correctly and it's adding the JS code into my page using:

<swf file="my_file.flv">

HOWEVER it's not loading the FLV file. I get

Sorry, flash is not available.

Upon further inspection when i look at the FlashVars the File: Var doesn't have my_file.flv appended to it. It's just the default path:

{ "width": "400", "height": "320", "file": "http://localhost/mysite/sites/default/files/" }

Something seems to be broken. No php errors, etc. Has anyone had this problem and is there a fix?

Cheers
Zap

Further to this, using PHP works a treat like this:

<?php print swf('my_vid.flv'); ?>

So it seems to be a problem with the SWF Filter. I've disabled all other filters, cleared the cache and I'm still having the same issue.

This is quite urgent for me so any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Zap
