The suckerfish menus on my site were being obscured by the video player when they dropped down. The menu items were hidden behind the video. Based on reading some related issues in this issue queue and some other posts, I implemented some changes to the flashvideo-flash.tpl.php file that seems to have solved the problem. I added the wmode "transparent" values below. Is my coding correct? And can this be permanently changed in the module?

<?php
// $Id$

/**
 * @file
 * This is a template file, used for displaying converted Flash videos.
 */
?>
<object id="flashvideo" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="<?php print $video['width']; ?>" height="<?php print $video['height']; ?>" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab">
  <param name="movie" value="<?php print $player; ?>" />
  <param name="FlashVars" value="<?php print $flashvars; ?>" />
  <param name="quality" value="high" />
  <param name="wmode" value="<?php print $wmode; ?>" />
  <?php if ($wmode == 'window') {
    print '<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />';
  } ?>
  <?php print $params; ?>
  <embed name="flashvideo" allowScriptAccess="always" src="<?php print $player; ?>"
    width="<?php print $video['width']; ?>"

    <?php if ($wmode == 'window') {
      print 'allowfullscreen="true"';
    } ?>
    quality="high"
    flashvars="<?php print $flashvars; ?>" />
  </embed>
</object>
