So, you can have multiple swfs listening to a single swf, but you cannot have a single swf listen to multiple swfs. The best analogy I can think of is a radio station. A radio station can transmit its signal to all its listeners. But, the radio station can only receive calls from one listener

The dispatcher doesn't need to know it's a unique ID. It just sends a unique ID which is then picked up by the listener. So, let's say you have 5 swfs listening to channel Rock. They all want to hear Rock, but they also need to hear advertising to their local area. So, you would pass a unique

Wait, you and I are saying the same thing. I can broadcast on as many channels as I want but I can't have a LocalConnection listen to more than the channel you pass it in the connect method. LC = new LocalConnection(): LC.connect(channelA); If you call LC.connect(channelB); It disconnects

If I've got several swfs running locally (through Director), can they all connect to the same LocalConnection object? I'm having a lot of problems getting this working in one-to-one connections because LocalConnections seem to be asynchronous, and it occurs to me that having a simple pair of
