Using loadMovie to load SWF linked to FLV

Question

I am having problems getting a movie (SWF) with an linked FLV
file to play when I use loadMovie to load it in.
I have an .FLV file named vid_9.flv. I have embedded it into
a Flash movie named vid_9.swf using Flash 8 Professional. I am
using "Progressive Download from a Web Server" and no controls.
When I play the SWF on the stand-alone player (the FLV is in the
same folder) it works great. Now when I call that SWF into another
movie using
swfHolder.loadMovie("SWFs/vid_9.swf");
it shows it being completely loaded, but then never plays,
all I get is a white screen. This is my second project in a row
where this did not work. Any ideas as to why? Thanks for any
help.

onLoadComplete executes before the loaded swf's assets are initialized:  use onLoadInit.
those function definitions in your loaded swf should NOT be in an onLoad method.  if they are defined on the main timeline of the loaded swf, use:
var url:String = "scene05.swf";
        var movieClip:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("movieClip", 0);
        var listenerObj:Object = new Object();
        listenerObj.onLoadInit = function (target_mc:MovieClip):Void {
            //It should execute these functions that are located in the onLoad event in the loaded swf.
            target_mc.initBackground();
            target_mc.initBackgroundWeg();
            target_mc.initVehicles();
            target_mc.initForeground();
            target_mc.initKnoppen();
        var movieClipLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
        movieClipLoader.addListener(listenerObj);
        movieClipLoader.loadClip(url, movieClip);
