Looking For SWF Player

[Tarheeltyme]

Hello All,
I do apologize if this question that has been ask before. Let me begin by saying I know nothing about programing flash therefore I have always Googled up my needs.
My problem: I need an audio player for a website Im building, the player needs to support multi tracks and easily embedded into an HTML page. But, I need one that plays .SWF files not Mp3's. I have Googled periodically for two days with no results. Can anyone put me on the right track to such a player?

Thank you very much

Are these swf files given to you as is? I'd request the files to be in mp3 otherwise you will need to build your own loader using flash that pulls in the swf files. Or you could try creating a script using swfObject that loads swf files. It's a semi-strange request because the flash player that you'd use to play the swf files would also itself be an swf file.

Infinityspiral,
Thank you for responding, Yes the .swf files were provided by the client. I have managed to obtain the player needed the down side is I had to purchase a complete software application to do so.

Thank you again,
Angie

As Infinityspiral said, you can use Flash to create your own player, no special software application is require. Sit around the campfire and I'll tell you about it....
With Flash, all it takes to load and play .swf files is the loadMovie function. Something like this:
swf_holder.loadMovie("american_story.swf");
fire_holder.loadMovie("fire.swf");
Here is a link to a page loading and playing mp3s that have been incorporated into .swf files and then loaded as .swfs. Select from various songs while "fire.swf" plays in the background.

Posting images (jpeg) or music (mp3) as .swf is often done to try thwart piracy. Since they can all be stolen, maybe you can get your supplier to give you the mp3s, if not, well at least you've placed one more obsticle in the way of pirates.
