Hey,

I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to handle broken  
flv links with the FLVPlayback component, something like:

mcFlv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean)  
{  
if(success)  
{  
trace (“File exists”);  
}  
else  
{  
trace(“File no longer exist”);  
}  
}  
mcFlv.load(“[http://www.noflvshere.com/test.flv](http://www.noflvshere.com/test.flv)”);

thanks!
