If you take class containing stagevideo and add to an instance of UIComponent the video doesn&#8217;t render. All you see is a blank screen, you can tell the video is playing because you can hear it.<\/li>\n<li>you have to use wmode=&#8221;direct&#8221; in your html embed otherwise it doesn&#8217;t work, this usually is not a problem but sometimes can be. If you have some over laying content like a menubar it will show behind the flash, our company website www.eonline.com has this problem and we don&#8217;t use stagevideo for our live streaming events even though the player is capable.<\/li>\n<li>No Backward Compatibility, if you use the stagevideo classes then the user needs to have 10.2 installed, Flash player will throw an exception otherwise. I have created a hack to use stagevideo and make it backwards compatible but its not out of the box. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nayansavla.com\/blog\/?p=545\">blog post about it<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are not major problems but Flex support is a huge one i believe.
