Flowplayer looping issue
In Firefox, Flowplayer does not like to stop looping even though autorewind is set to false. In order to fix it, you need to add a second clip to the playlist which is just a blank image (ie. blank.jpg or blank.gif. As you can see below after clip 1 we added a comma and then clip 2, and the video stops. It still shows the loading sign even though it’s not loading anything but that is something we can’t avoid.

Actual script we have working on the site is below
<script type=“text/javascript”> // <![CDATA[ var fo = new
SWFObject("http://spidadesign.com/NEW/exit9films.com/pages/swf/FlowPlayerDark.swf",
"FlowPlayer", "367", "260", "7", "#ffffff", true);
fo.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
fo.addVariable("config", "{ countryCode: 'fi', playList: [ {overlayId: 'play' },
{ url: 'http://spidadesign.com/NEW/exit9films.com/videos/video_5_1203959960.flv' },
{url: 'images/space.gif', duration: 1} ], initialScale: 'scale', autoRewind: 'false',
fullScreenScriptURL: 'http://spidadesign.com/NEW/exit9films.com/pages/swf/fullscreen.js' }");
fo.write("player");
// ]]>
