Description
I was using jw media player 4 for video and am now adding audio. I wanted to use 1pixelout, so I installed it in the recommended place, but the player itself would not load. If I took the path to the player and tried to access it I got a 404 page, yet the file .../site/all/modules/swftools/shared/1pixelout/player.swf existed and was accessible via permissions. When I renamed the 1pixelout directory to onepixelout it worked. For now I hacked the code in onepixelout.module from:
'shared_file' => '1pixelout/player.swf',
to
'shared_file' => 'onepixelout/player.swf',
and it works fine. I'm using "vanilla" drupal 6.11

After configuring SFWTools on my site to use 1pixelout, on the content page I would get the message "You are missing some Flash content that should appear here! Perhaps your browser cannot display it, or maybe it did not initialize correctly". (I also got a page not found error when trying to access the swf directly.)
Making the change described above by Mike, resaving the settings, and refreshing the content page, fixed the issue and 1pixelout player displayed successfully.
Should we create a patch?
If the patch applied to SWFtools, the documentation here: http://drupal.org/node/303203 would also need to be updated. Is there anywhere else that the other folder name is documented?
