Flash Issue

I've created a flash video in Video Encoder, then inserted that video into Presenter.  It works fine locally on my laptop, but when I copy it to our intranet server, I get the following error when I try to run the player.  I've done it this way many times before with no problems.  In fact, videos that worked a few weeks ago now don't work.  It must have something to do with updates to our version of Flash Player.  Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks.

Hi Tony

looks like you have the flash movie on the intranet and are playing the articulate project off your local machine, flash is designed to only access data from one domain e.g. all from the local machine, or intranet or internet.  It is a security issue to ensure flash is not doing something untoward.

If you are only testing then i would publish to cd and load via the exe file as this will curcumvent the security.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your response.  I tried to publish to a CD.  I took that folder plus the PowerPoint and the Articulate files and copied them all onto our intranet server.  When I tried to play the .exe file, it opens without the error message but the video does not play.  Again, everything works fine locally on my laptop.
