Haven't really done much work with cue points and FLV files lately, and I did some serious searching of the archives but came up blank. Any help is appreciated.

I've got a 7 min. FLV file (one single file) which may or may not get broken up into separate FLVs for better interaction with the video online. I also will have an SWF file that will contain a variety of 'screens', or labeled frames, that will need to get triggered as the FLV plays back.

No streaming server will be used - this is all progressive playback. I'm relying on the FLV playback for Flash 8 to control buffering/ loading, but need to also guarantee that the SWF file is loaded up to the proper point so that the cue points will be triggered properly and won't stall during playback.

Has anyone done anything like this recently and would be able to offer any knowledge? Specifically, is there any way to check as the FLV and SWF are loading at the same time that it's safe to start playback? I've also read of issues with loading multiple FLVs in at the same time (ie, it breaks), so separating this long FLV and SWF into multiple "scenes" may not work properly.

thanks in advance ...

Jon
