Flash isn’t really designed for that but you can do it if you let it import frame per frame

Hi tstefan,
Take a look at these links.
Pre-made movie controller that comes with Flash MX. It will work with imported videos or main timeline animation.

Here is another video controller that looks identical to the QT controller. Read through documentation on how to use.
