Module development and code questions

I have a client that has a library of video files in .flv format. I would like to use the excellent Flashvideo module to let him attach and display videos in a CCK content type.

My problem is how to bypass ffmpeg. All the videos are ready to go without any conversion- they just need a an easy way to be uploaded and attached to a node.

Hi

I currently have my own node module written but I want the output to be created as a forum topic now.

So, I would like to know if anyone knows how to customise the forum topic node form, so that I can return the HTML output from a form, as the forum topic's body.

I was thinking if I could just alter my module and change node_insert to database INSERT into "forum" tables, but I know that the forum.module is complicated and inserts into many tables. Does anyone know how to do this?

Any ideas, please.

Thanks
