Hi Bastien,

thanks for your research, but you could try a *bit* harder to check 
before sending bugs.

Source files are provided for several of the swf files mentioned...

coming from http://osmf.org/strobe_mediaplayback.html and is freely
available in source and binary form.
The only patch to the official sources is also available in the above
directory.

For the actual sources ...OSMF-src.zip ... 53Mb ..
do you want me to include this bunch of files?

What do you mean with "please avoid" - you are using "serious"
as severity and "please avoid" - is this policy (which paragraph?) or not?

I lower the severity to important.

> In this case maybe player_flv_maxi.swf is it own source. Ask ftpmaster

I hereby ask the ftpmasters. Since the are in DebugsCC this is enough.

Thanks

Norbert
