Does the SWF player support external scripting? Specifically I'd like to be able to, from JS, trigger play/pause of the video as well as add listeners/observers to be triggered based on the state of the player.
Something similar to what YouTube or Yahoo Music have for their respective video players:
http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/js_api_reference.html#Operations
http://developer.yahoo.com/music/api_guide/VideoPlayerMethods.html
One more vote for a Javascript API. I know this is already on your radar, just want to reiterate that there is high demand for this so hopefully it will be a high priority.

Hey Steve,
We've had a number of requests for a Javascript API. It's certainly on our radar, but we don't have it available, yet.
Thanks for checking out the API.

Just posted the documentation for our JavaScript player controls over here:

We'll have a sample page up soon, too.
