If your player is here:http://www.domain.com/JWPlayer/player.swf
and your FLV video file is here:http://www.domain.com/media/video.flv

Then the relative path for the FLV starts at:http://www.domain.com/JWPlayer/

For a relative URL, you would go up one directory to the root "/" directory, then down one directory to the "media" directory:'file': '../media/video.flv',

For an absolute URL, you would start at the root "/" directory and go down one directory to the "media" directory:'file': '/media/video.flv',

The URI would be:'file': 'http://www.domain.com/media/video.flv',

The origin of the relative URL for all other media (the exception being FLV media files), is the location of the HTML document that your Flash content is embedded into.
