Flash video player issue in IE

Question

I am facing a strange issue in IE. I have a video player which is loaded as a popup. When it loads, flash player does not load anything. But when we right click on that section and click on "Play" it loads that player. Is there any fix for that.

I tried it in IE7 using Flash player 10 plugin.

To Elaborate.. The "Play" Button I am referring to is not inside the flash object. I am referring to the menu option which loads when you right click any flash object in browsers

You didn't provide any informations about your movie thus it's hard to tell you what's really going wrong.

Since you say "play" fixes your issue there's a good possiblity that you you use frame based code and didn't add a preloader or made a mistake with it. What you describe can happen when you jump to a frame that hasn't been loaded yet.

So if you spread code among several keyframes, always use a preloader.
