i’ve done work with dynamic .flvs (streaming and prog dl) but never really embedded an .flv in the timeline.

now i’ve got three of them embedded and i need to detect when each has finished playing (they will rotate).

I can’t seem to find any good info on how to control playback on an embedded flv (i chose to embed them inside movieclip symbols).

thanks for any help!
