FLVPlayback previous Cuepoint issue

Question

I am currently creating a FLV player that supports dual language captions as well as FlashVars telling the player where the caption xml file is as well as the another xml file that contains interactive information about the player.  I am looking for a way to find the previous cuepoint (which are set in the captions xml), so that I can display that caption whenever the player pauses (and hides the player's buttons) to display a math problem that the user must answer correctly before the video proceeds.  I have gotten everything to work so far except I cannot get the captionsText text field to display the caption from the previous cuepoint since when the player pauses, it is not on the cuepoint with a caption in it.
There are two buttons (one for english and another for spanish), that, when clicked, display the caption from the current cue point.  I tried simply using setCaption(currentCuePoint - 1);, but that returns a value of the cuepoint that doesn't have any caption associated with it.
I need a simple way of determining the current cuepoint's number and then from there, going to the previous cuepoint and getting that text to display.
I am pasting some of my code below for reference.  ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED...!!!!

Thanks, Kibbik.  That's actually very helpful.  I guess I was just wondering if there was a method to reset the max volume of the slider to 200% or something similar, but I suppose not.
I figured redoing the volume on the original movie was one solution, but it would be nice to see the component rewritten so as to reset the max volume of the slider to the volume parameter setting.
