First of all... please don't assume any particular knowledge on my behalf. I'm not quite a total Flash novice, but I'm not far off.

For an upcoming project, I need to have a flash movice containing several FLVs, but no visible play-buttons. Some of them will be triggered at preset points on the timeline, others will be triggered by keypresses on the keyboard. (I'm actually hoping to have them ultimately controlled by a MIDI signal - but one step at a time).

Problem is, I've never used FLV before. I've got a couple of test clips in the format, and by a tutorial I've found I've managed to get a couple of the included component buttons to work, but I don't even know where to start getting things to work the way I need them to.

Any advice, or hints?

Might be easier to design your own FLV player, rather than using one of the provided components...

Check the Video Basics tutorials (8 parts - bottom of the Tutorials list...) here...
