Compiling video along with player?

Recently I've been looking for a way to secure my content and an idea popped into my head: would it be possible to compile my FLVs directly into an SWF along with JWplayer? That way, there's no need for any external flashvars, they can all be inside the SWF. This can also minimize the html code needed since it would be one simple SWF embed.

My hope is to prevent users from being easily able to download and convert my content. Sure, they can download the SWF, but I am hoping that extracting the video out of it is a little more complicated (if even possible) than throwing an FLV/MP4 into fffpeg.

Thanks in advance.

It is possible to reference the flv as the "file" flashvar in the source code. It is not really possible to physically compiles FLVs INTO the player though. Referencing the FLV in the source though will not prevent people from being able to leech files though. At the end of the day people usually find a way to do it if they are determined enough (with DownLoadHelper, RealPlayer, etc).
