Why is it when I go to video.nbc.com (which uses a customized version of SWFObject), all of the flash videos have a very compact interface (see below),
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Full Screen | Position Bar | Time Index | Back | Fwd | Pause | Volume |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But when I use SWFObject for a video I have to use on a webpage, I get this huge cluncky interface (see below)?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Position Bar Time Index |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------- --------------- -------------------------
| Play/Pause | | Back | Fwd | | Volume Bar |
---------------- --------------- -------------------------
Is the interface dependant upon in which version the flash file was encoded? Or are there some settings that you can invoke to promote this behaviour? I looked through the source code of video.nbc.com as best I could and couldn't find anything that clearly said "this is causing the smaller interface to appear."
The point being: if there is a way to force the smaller interface, I would gladly have it as space is limited in the webpage where it is going. I apolgize for the great ASCII art, but I am guessing the mail list doesn't take well to attachments/embedded pictures. Any suggestions, questions? Thanks!
