    The way to do it is to build your video with a flash video player and then embed it to the file. The acrobat format allows you to natively embed SWFs, as it has the flash plugin/framework built in. This means you get the same kind of performance as a native air application, or if you run it in the standalone flash player (ie the one you compile to from the flash ide). This is advantageous, as the standalone enclosed flash player well and truly outperforms various browser plugin versions.

    I'm not sure if you can do it all with indesign - you may need to use acrobat pro (and obviously have a flash video player handy)

    Good luck :)
