Chrome, Opera, Flowplayer & s2member_file_download

Hello and thank you for a great plugin.

I have a problem with Chrome and Opera not being able to work Flowplayer flv videos in the s2member_file_download protected files area.
They work fine with Firefox and IE.
The files are stand alone, not embedded in WP.

Any ideas?

I'm not very familiar with the video players, but I have seen several threads that talk about them. I hope you find something helpful in these http://goo.gl/mE9qk

Thank you Cristian, I think I had read most of those threads already as they helped me set-up Flowplayer to begin with, as I knew nothing at all :)

I notice Jason says "With FlowPlayer, all videos require a FlashVar configuration, and with s2Member it's the same"

I wonder if that applies to my files as well as they are not embedded? I'll have to google to find out what Flashvars means :-)

Hmm... I followed the basic Flowplayer instructions so I have no <OBJECT> tag, which means I have no FlashVars, I think.
Would that make any difference to Opera and Chrome displaying the flv files?
Anyone got any ideas please?

It'd probably be good to post a reply to one of those threads, that way those who posted in them already may reply back to help you.
