Hi Matt, You could probably put the 8 other languages into mp3 files, which you can play back using the Sound class. Sound.play() has an optional startTime argument, so you can start playback at any position in the mp3.
Suppose the user is playing back the FLV in English, then switches to French. In your code, you would mute the FLV's English audio soundtrack, get the FLV's current playback position (which I assume is possible, though I've never tried!), then call play on a Sound with the French sound track, with startTime set to the FLV's current position. -Gerry On 2010-05-06 , at 21:30 , Matt S. wrote: > Is there a reliable way to have one video track, but then swap in > audio tracks on the fly and have them sync properly?
