[Xerte] Video from Template Problems

[Raizan Rahmat]

Hi Paul,

I've checked the path, it is correct.

Okay I have just found out something, it appears the codec used by my own
file converter to flv is not recognised by Xerte.

Because when I used another sample .flv from the web it works fine. So at
least I know it has nothing to do with Xerte, it's the particular .flv file
I'm trying to load.

Thanks guys!
