Flash CS4, Using ActionScript in Buttons to go to cue points in a FLV

Question

Hi.
I'm pretty much a Flash novice, so i don't think this question is particularly hard, it's just something that's vexing me for a few days. I know it's possible based on all the literature I've  read, but I can't seem to get it done properly.
Basically, I have a video file that I rendered in FLV with 5 navigation points called 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
What I want to do is use buttons to navigate to the five cue point in the flash movie. I think that this is possible using ActionScipt 2, but I don't know what to code in the script function.
Any help would be very, very appreciated.
Thanks,
Javier

Hi,
The following AS2 code may help you
stop();
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.ready = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
<your flv playback instance name>.addEventListener("ready", listenerObject);
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.cuePoint = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
<your button instance name>.onRelease = function () {
playback.seekToNavCuePoint("<your cue point name>");
<your flv playback instance name>.addEventListener("cuePoint", listenerObject);
\\replace all the placeholder things including the < >
Also just take a look at the description at http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Liv eDocs_Parts&file=00003003.html for more details
