c64 sids with flash mx?

HIya folx,
Please help, im looking at putting c64 sid files in with some flash programming on the pc. Is there any way to get flash to play a sid file, without sampling as wav or mp3? (ie. it plays the sid) this would be benificial as sids are very small, and I have been writing some original sids using the rockmon and a emulator (sad and retro i know).
Maybe there is a plug in for flash, if not its a great idea as u could have lots of music on the web with flash graphics etc. ..
:)
Thankx for any help

Unfortunately A SID plugin does not exist (yet!) for Flash.
There are other alternatives. It would be possible to allow the flash presentation to possibly run a sidplayer in the background. I dont know if this would be possible, but the following steps would possibly be required

embed c64 SID and SIDPlayer in flash movie
save the SID & SIDplayer from the movie to the harddrive
Execute a script to play the SID from the SIDplayer in the background (?)

Flash possibly does not have the embed and save to disk feature, but if it does, it might be viable

hiya thankx for your help.
Im sure it would be a viable prospect to code a plug in for flash so its all self contained, think of the possibilities that sid music websites could do with that code.
Thankx
Max.
