Creating a video archive like this

[mallen]

I have a client that wants a video archive. Example http://buccaneers.com/multimedia/videoarchive.aspx

Looks like the list is pulled from a database. When you hover over the links are sending an ID number and name of the file. Does anyone have an idea how to do this? I have done a video player with a selection box but it was all handcoded and not hooked up to a database.

Also he may want it like the media player on the home page. Does that look like its hardcoded in the fla or is it dynamic too?

Maybe this belongs in another section?

I tried using the http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player and it works but I want a php page to serve up a list like the bucaneers web site. Click on a link and the player loads that FLV.
Here is another example of what i am trying to do. I don't need the thumbnails but it would be good also. http://www.hillaryclinton.com/video/

Anyone have any more ideas? I have tried using myFlvPlayer.contentPath = _root.myvideo+".flv"; plus some javascript to transfer the file name in the URL. But still not working. I really am trying to get this working for a client this week. Thanks in advance for anything you can do.

I have been told I need Swfobject installed. http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/

But after reading it I still don't understand.

<div id="flashcontent">
This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("player.swf", "flashcontent", "320", "240", "9", "#336699");
so.write("flashcontent");
so.addVariable("movie", getQueryParamValue("movie"));
</script>
