Hello all,
Perhaps someone can help me figure this problem out.
I have a flash app that streams a flv. Then at the end of the video an
event is triggered.

First I'm

I've been wondering the same thing.
I've done several different variations too.
I first tried to Floor the NetStream.time and duration, but if the
duration is 5.3 seconds and the playhead stopped at 4.99 you end up
with a 5 on 6 comparison.
I then tried to obtain the percentage which did work
In my experience it doesn't work.
NetStream.Play.Stop is fired much to early in the streaming video.
The other method that I use is to first listen for
NetStream.Buffer.Flush followed by NetStream.Buffer.Empty, but
NetStream.Buffer.Flush is new to Flash Player 8.
Not sure to tell you truth.
From http://www.kaourantin.net/2005/08/from-12-to-24-layers-and-other.html
The NetStream object now sends NetStream.Buffer.Flush status
messages when the buffer is being emptied, f.ex. when you reach the
end of a file. This is helpful especially if videos are shorter
Is it better to cut your video to whole seconds?
Well, that may not be as easy as it sounds. Specially in my case, I

I was recently approached to build a rather robust enterprise

Well, depending what Patrick is trying to do. onLoadInit would not work.
onLoadInit is fired when the loaded contents first frame is played.
onLoadInit is actually fired after the onLoadComplete event.
onLoadStart is fired right after you call the MovieClipLoader.loadClip() method.
