I am totally new to Flash and SWF file  
I am using Flash professional 8. I have this swf file which plays a flv from [URL-xyz.com](http://URL-xyz.com). This server redirects to the rtmp server and streams the flv from there. I would like to capture this rtmp url in my action script.  
The \_url parameter gives me [URL-xyz.com](http://URL-xyz.com) and not the redirected url  
Is there any way to capture this redirected url ?

Thanks
