Hello all,

I am loading an external swf to a movie clip inside my main movie. I’d like to add some functionality like in FLVPlayback component. I can easily control the movieclip with stop(); or play(); commands, but I’d like to add a slider as well. Please note that I can’t change the swf that I am loading.

Thank you.
