          Hi,

           

          Thanks for trying the Flash Media Playback. Flash will always try to update to the latest version (which is now moved to 10.3) and whenever the player or any other resource needs to get the latest version for any of its functionalities, it has to be updated. And once it is updated, it should not bother and play fine, on IE or any other browser as well.

           

          You are playing the strobe media playback directly from the adobe hosted SWF which should not cause any problems. Alternatively you can download the full player on to your local environment and play around with more functionality. This might give you more leverage.


          Hope it helps. Thank you !
