Dynamic Movies
Please can someone advise me on the best route for this?
I have a database with a list of movies and the location of the files. This list will change as new movies are uploaded and old one removed.
How can I dynamically pull a movie into flash, I am aware or at least i have pulled in images from an external source before but not sure how do it with movies.
Any advise would be great.

Depends on how your Flash is set up really.. a stand alone player, something embedded in another movie.. on and on...
have a look here at the first 4 options the 4th being the most likely to be of help.
If you have a demo to show that may help further.

I just completed a project where I did a lot of backend integration into flash.
If you know how to do XML, just output XML from PHP. I don't know what your level of comfort is with XML, but I've posted tons of XML examples on this forum.
As another resource, view the following tutorials on gotoAndLearn()
Flash + MySQL + PHP: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=20
XML Video Playlist: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=23
You'll learn all you need to know from those two tutorials. Post back if you need any help
