William Sanders has a nice tutorial up on Adobe's Dev Center about
creating a video player using OOP and the State Pattern.
<http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/video_state_machine_as3.html>
Also, a great book to pick up if you want to start learning OOP is Head
First Design Patterns. It's written for Java but don't let that deter
you. You should follow along just fine if you know AS syntax.
Cheers,

I need to develop an on-demand video player that includes a category
browser
so that users can view a list of videos from a particular category
(cooking,
for example) or the user can create their own playlist of videos. My
previous flash experience has been with procedural based actionscripting
and
I'm having a difficult time determining where to begin in planning out an
OOP approach. I've picked up a few OOP/Actionscript books form Friends of
Ed, and the two Moock books, but I'm still a little unsure on where/how to
begin to make it as modular as possible. I could really use a 'how &
why'-type description if anyone's so inclined…
Thanks!
