Hello,

I have built a video player in Flash 8, and it shows the loading progress, and the play progress, but I can’t get it to set the video to a specific point when you drag the progress dot.

For example, on YouTube, you can click the circle button and drag it to where you want to be in the movie.

I cannot seem to find any Flash tutorials that have good video player .flas, and I can’t seem to code that part myself. Can someone please assist me with this?

Here is the player I am working with:

I have made it so you can now drag the progress dot, but can’t make it control the movie.
