Yup, Tested and True,
it's definitely onLoadInit that does the trick, because it is fired when
the first frame of your loaded SWF is played.
onLoadComplete only tells you that the SWF bytes have completed loading
before it actually begins playing.
the rest of the onLoad... events for the MovieClipLoader seem to be
there only for the purpose of load progress monitoring. Of course you
can put them at any use you see fit but basically that is waht they do.
onLoadInit tells you that your SWF is ready for manipulation.

Hello all,
I have a project where I'd like to use MovieClipLoader to load an
external
SWF, so that I can be notified when the load is complete. However, it
appears that MovieClipLoader.loadClip() does not allow one to pass
parameters (i.e. flashVars) to the SWF like MovieClip.loadMovie() does.
As an experiment, I tried setting my SWF parameters in response to
onLoadComplete(), and it appears to work - onLoadComplete is called
before
the loaded SWF initializes, and the parameters set in onLoadComplete()
are
set on the root clip of the loaded SWF.
So my question is, does anyone know if this is guaranteed behavior? The
Macromedia docs all seem to indicate that onLoadComplete() is completely
useless and one should use onLoadInit() (and yes, I'm still using
onLoadInit
for everything other than the SWF parameters).
Thanks!
