I want to load a simple 10 second FLV animation. When it is loaded i want to tell the clip above it to open up so you can see the video. When the video is done, i want the doors to close. I don’t need controls on the video because it is so short. I’m not asking for specific code unless it’s relatively easy, but more or less the approach e.g. can i use movieClipLoader, or should i use VideoPlayerClass, or FLVPlayback?

Any help would be much appreciated…
