A question about measuring video consumption in flash

Question

Hi all, a problem puzzled with me, that is whether the measurement swf could capture netstream info from the playback swf in the html page not in the AS environment, such as:
<script type="text/javascript">
             var swfVersionStr = "11.2.0";
             var params = {};
             params.name = "BASE";
             params.allowscriptaccess = "always";
             var attributes = {};
             attributes.id = "loadMonitor";
             attributes.name = "loadMonitor";
             swfobject.embedSWF(
                 "loadMonitor.swf", "flashMonitor",
                 "0%", "0%", swfVersionStr);
         </script>
         <div id="flashMonitor">if no Monitor display here</div>
         <script type="text/javascript">
             // For version detection, set to min. required Flash Player version, or 0 (or 0.0.0), for no version detection.
             var swfVersionStr = "11.2.0";
             // To use express install, set to playerProductInstall.swf, otherwise the empty string.
             var xiSwfUrlStr = "playerProductInstall.swf";
             var flashvars = {};
             var params = {};
             params.name = "BASE";
             params.quality = "high";
             params.bgcolor = "#ffffff";
             params.allowscriptaccess = "always";
             params.allowfullscreen = "true";
             var attributes = {};
             attributes.id = "loadPlayer";
             attributes.name = "loadPlayer";
             attributes.align = "middle";
             swfobject.embedSWF(
                 "loadPlayer.swf", "flashContent",
                 "100%", "100%",
                 swfVersionStr, xiSwfUrlStr,
                 flashvars, params, attributes);
             // JavaScript enabled so display the flashContent div in case it is not replaced with a swf object.
             swfobject.createCSS("#flashContent", "display:block;text-align:left;");
         </script>
In the example, loadMonitor.swf executes measurement function, and loadPlayer.swf executes playback function. But I found measurement cannt capture any netstream info.
The articlesaid they should belong to the same security context, but I cannt find more info about the description, could you help me? Thanks a lot.

@flex2008,
Its true as you said the type coercion exception occurs since you have not overridden the clone() method. But the thing here you should note is even though there is a type mismatch of the event type the property enteredText still exists on that event Object except the type of Event is normal flash Event.
Hope you understood..Since the event you dispatched is infact a event with enteredText property...
Just to let you know as you are giving a presentation on events. I would like you to highlight one point in your code...so that you can share..
If in your dispatchedEventHandler() method if you dispatch the event with innerContainer instead of parentComp then your application will go into a Event dispatch recursion overflow error which means that your event gets dispatched and listened infinite times.
private function dispatchedEventHandler(event:CustomEventNoCloning):void
                innerContainer.dispatchEvent(event);
Thanks,
