Well, my hack worked. I created a new package in my project. Then I copied the Flex video classes into the package folders and hacked those (about 50 lines of code in 10 files - less not counting the package name changes). Then I created a new video event - BUFFERINGPCT. The VideoEvent object now contains a numeric property named "bufferingProgress." The hack works like a charm!
Now I can track buffering progress using my hacked version of the <mx:videoDisplay> component. The question is how do I get Adobe to add this type of functionality to the framework? Greg & Abdul, thanks for all your responses. I learned much and I hope other find this thread useful.
