I am a video editor on Avid products. So please excuse the total ignorance of
my question concerning Flash.

Avid can generate XML and DTD metadata files from video sequences. Often used
to create chapter markers for DVD. But I can also set the metadata to link to a
URL. My client wants a video (QT, WMV, FLV, whatever) that plays on the
desktop, and when it hits certain points, a web browser window opens with
pertinent info relating to the video. Sort of like a powerpoint presentation.
Is Flash one way to do this? Is ActiveScript the key?

Thanks for any advice you can give.
