hello everyone,

I have an .flv that has cue points sent to me by one of our motion designers. What I need to do here is be able to detect this cue points in actionscript so i can stop them at certain point and so on. I found something on flash help but i’m kind of confused. If someone could help me understand this whole concept. Thank you

```
ActionScript Code:
