Flash Reference

StreamAPI's Flash SWF accepts a number of parameters as shown here. They should be passed to the SWF via the Flashvars attribute. Using the Javascript library SWFObject is the recommended way of generating proper HTML Flash embeds. You are also free to generate them manually or using a different library. You should always specify the allowscriptaccess="true" and allowfullscreen="true" attributes.
