Creating custom buttons to control playback of embedded videos for built-in flash player. Default setting for Playback Style is floating window. Have a STOP button to close the floating window via rma.activated = false.
 
Would like a PREVIEW button that toggles Playback Style of embedded video to "Play content on page". Would also need to toggle the working PLAY button back to the floating window setting.
 
Can this be done via MediaSettings.windowType ? Or is that just for legacy media? Code example?

There is no script access to the playback style of a rich media annotation in Acrobat 9. The methods of the legacy media object do not work on RMAs, so the only way to switch playback style on the fly is via the right-click menu.

Assumed as much... But had to ask.
