wmv to flv is more plausible then you can use flash's built in flash video or use DW8 flash video import methods. Search for Riva FLV Encoder. Its free and can convert wmv to flv. It leaves no watermarks.

Put the files in the zip file found here into the same directory as your intro page.

Then you probably did something wrong. I tested it and it worked fine. The flv preloads and plays while it downloads. Now I have to wait just to even see your flash intro. Why do you even have an intro in the first place? I think splash pages are a waste of time. You might be able to crop the video using Windows Movie Maker. Its in your start menu under program files. Upload the html and the files I told you to somewhere on your server and give us the link. I'm guessing you didn't upload something correctly.

Your flash version is outdated. http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/downl...ShockwaveFlash
I just updated my flash player version and it worked fine for me.
