It seems that the Complete event issue with Sorenson has been fixed, as of
last week's update, may want to upgrade -- worked for us.

Is splitting the 2 gig file up into smaller files an option for you?
You could load the "chapters" of the 2 gig file into an array from an
XML/SQL/text/or object source that contains the content paths.
Then use the complete event to load the next clip in the array.
You could wait until after the current clip has finished loading before
loading the next clip (with an onLoadComplete event, not shown in code
below) so that all the chapters are not downloaded at once. Does anyone know
a way to clear a previous video from cache once it has been viewed? I just
thought how that could be useful.
Here is the code I used, you could adopt it for your application if you
like:
//defining the complete event actions for the clip
//tracks current vid index
_global.curVid=0;
vidListener.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
_global.curVid++;
//PageView... clip is location array of FLVs
vids=PageView.componentsMC.vids;
if(_global.curVid<PageView.componentsMC.vids.length){
//fade out last vid (using a movieclip prototype called
cm_tween, definition not shown here)
vids[_global.curVid-1].cm_tween('_alpha',100,0,5);
//fade in current vid
vids[_global.curVid].cm_tween('_alpha',0,100,5);
//play current vid (when attached I set the property
autoPlay=false)
vids[_global.curVid].play();
}
}
//snippet from the for loop that attaches the clips. The initObj contains
all the init properties
//such as initObj.contentPath, initObj.autoPlay, etc...
PageView.componentsMC.vids=[];
for(...){
clip = PageView.componentsMC.vids[i].attachMovie("FLVPlayback",
initObj.name, i, initObj);
clip.addEventListener("complete", vidListener);
}
I have had issues with the complete event being properly added to an FLV
during conversion in Sorensen Squeeze. Most of the time the complete event
is added fine but occasionally it comes up missing. I prefer using the
Macromedia video encoder.
