Hi, posted this in possibly the wrong thread yesterday. Im not sure the right place to ask this, so I'll try here.

I'm looking for an easy to use product where I can create custom frames (or player?) around a flash video - either a full player or just a "picture frame" type thing that I can add some test/logos to.

The idea behind this is that our company has a generic video that we want to give to individual sales people to use as their own. Instead of personalizng each video, I am thinking it is easiest to just have each sales person have their own "frame" around the video where I can insert their name/phone/email, etc..

I know I can easily nest a couple of tables and put the personalilzation in there, but I am looking for a fancier solution.

Any ideas?

    Hello jmidas,
    The first thing I think of when I read your description is to create a <div> to surround the flash video content. Then use CSS to add extra details such as position, padding, color of the frame or border, and other things. Then to personalize the generic video for each individual sales person, you can make a call with PHP to either include a file with that displays their unique information, or put the unique details in variables. Short and sweet. Should take no longer than about 5-10 minutes. New sales people would have their own information in the external file, or you would define new values for the PHP variables.

    I hope that doesn't sound too confusing since I know you were asking about a product to do this. But it seems easy enough to code by hand. Let me know if that helps. Thank you.
