I can't figure out how to pass additional flashvar parameters to Flowplayer when files are uploaded? Since the video_params.module parses each param it doesn't seem to work with the flashvars that Flowplayer needs? I thought I saw a post that had the theme_ function in it that it looked like you could modify, but I can't seem to find it in the actual file?

I had the same issue. For example I would like to take the youtube approach where the video doesn't autoplay, requiring the user instead to click play. This seems less invasive. Ideally, it wouldn't load either until that point to save bandwidth.

That said, there is a way to set the parameters you are looking for, but I do not believe it is possible to set this yet via the web form. One possible work around is to hack the includes/common.inc file that is part of the video module distribution see line 93.

But that is bad practice, considering the developers have worked hard to make it is a themeable function! See: http://drupal.org/node/11811 for more info on how to theme functions (the first tutorial I found by googling) as part of your site's template.

I suspect later versions of the module will make these changes easier. The issue might be better placed as a feature request. I do not know as I don't work on the video module

Hope that helps
