You can preload FLVs with the NetStream and even see how big the FLV file is
as long as you've encoded it properly so that it has MetaData. I know that
if you do your compression in Sorenson Squeeze it'll inject the MetaData for
you, and I think most other tools do the same automatically.
Check out the PreloadAssetManager class which will handle all the preloading
for you including reporting the percent loaded:

Hi,How do I preload video when the target player is 7?.The delivery
technique I'm using is progressive download.Should I be using a proxy SWF to
load an external FLV (because the Video class in Flash doesn't have anyway
of polling the size of an external FLV, or how much of that FLV is loaded -
unless I'm missing something).Thanks.
