Building a player is a task that only needs to be done once, you then tell
it which video file to load (via a bit of config and actionscript) and use
the same movie over and over again.

To create that container I would recommend either (a) using a Windows
machine as it's just not worth the time and effort to figure something out
via the FOSS route; or (b) bribe a Flashmonkey to do it for you.

I went the latter route and they're surprisingly cheap :-)
