How do I embed a *.flv file (Flash Video) into an aspx page similar to
embedding windows media player active x control?

Cheers

Have a look at epicFlashControl. Peter's answer is correct, but if you're
using VS.NET, epicFlashControl will take care of many of the annoying parts
of integrating Flash on an aspx page.

yeah i know that...

Whatever the <embed> or <object --- tag directives are for embedding .flv
into a plain old html page, that's what you would put in the .ASPX
(markup)
of your ASP.NET page.

The kind of help answer I was looking for:

You can't display a flash movie directly in an asp.net page you are required
to reference\contain the *.FLV file in a *.SWF, this can then displayed
using the embedded adobe flash player using an active x control in similar
manner to windows media player.

To produce the *.SWF you will need something like MAcromedia Flash
Professional.

To embed the adobe flash player you will need the following HTML in the
asp.net page:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
width="500" height="400" id="Untitled-1" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="progressive2.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#aaaaaa" />
<embed src="progressive2.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff"
width="500" height="400" name="Untitled-1" align="middle"
allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
