The XML documentation is broken up into two sections. Those attributes associated with the <video> nodes and those attributes associated with the <settings /> node.
Note: the capitalization of these attributes does matter. As opposed to the instance names of the elements of the video interface which do not.
path=”path/fileName.flv”
The path to the FLV that you would like to play. This can be a relative path to an FLV on the same server or a full HTTP address. If you would like to stream a video for youTube use: youtube=IDnumber.
captions=”path/fileName.xml”
The path to the captions data, if any. The data in this XML file will populate the captions TextField based on the time indexing.
videoTitle=”text goes in the videoTitle TextField”
Text that will populate the videoTitle TextField.
iconSrc=”path/fileName.png”
The path to the graphic that you would like to display in the linkIcon inside the linkBTN that is attached at runtime.
iconWidth=”number”
iconHeight=”number”
Override the intrinsic width/height of the graphic loaded into the linkIcon.
autoPlayNext=”true/false”
Automatically starts playing the next video. If currently playing the last video it will wrap around and begin playing the first video.
showStartPlay=”true/false” ( video.Maru 3.0 addition )
Display the startPlay MovieClip. Autoplay must be set to false for this to work. And the startPlay MovieClip must have been on the stage at authoring time.
loopVideo=”true/false”
Play the current video again.
autoPlayVideo=”true/false”
Determines if the video should be playing – true – or paused – false – on startup
btnX=”number”
btnY=”number”
The x,y coordinates of the associated linkBTN for this video node. The position will be from the registration of the _parent MovieClip or, if it exists, the linkBTNholder.
If you only supply the btnX, btnY value for the first <video> node then all the other buttons will stack vertically with a gap of 2 pixels between each.
linkText=”Text on the linkBTN”
The text that goes on the associated linkBTN.
description
The description is not an attribute. It is the value of the node. The text should be placed between the <video>description text</video> tags.
If you want to display HTML code in the description TextField then use CDATA, as such: <![CDATA[<b>description</b> of the video that goes in the description TextField]]>
description
buttonsX=”number”
Set the x-coordinate for all the linkBTNs.
buttonsY=”number”
Set the y-coordinate for all the linkBTNs.
prevButtonX=”number”
prevButtonY=”number”
The x,y coordinate of the prev button when it is attached at runtime. If no value is given then it will stack under the last linkBTN.
nextButtonX=”number”
nextButtonY=”number”
The x,y coordinate of the next button when it is attached at runtime. If no value is given then it will be placed at the same y-value and just to the right of the prev button.
verticalButtonPadding=”number”
The number of pixels between the linkBTNs if they are stacked vertically.
horizontalButtonPadding=”number”
The number of pixels between the linkBTNs if they are placed horizontally.
Below is a sample XML with all of the available attributes.

WillThis is cool! Any tutorials on using it from a Stream server? I am trying to do it with the XML and playlist with the FLVs coming from a streaming server.
Thanks
polyGeek@Will, I don’t have any tutorials for streaming. Just the documentation. But I’ll put that high on the list of tutorials to do. There’s lots that’s going on with video.Maru that’s about to come out in the next few weeks.
