Flash video player Feedback, suggestions.

[Doberman]

I am working on a flash video player for a new site i'm working on. I need opinions for the player. As far as the artwork for the backdrop to the video is concerned. How would you do it?

Peep it here. This the test version, so there is a video currently streaming.

I think the interface looks kind of dated.
