Of course, if the swf is compiled F9/AS3, you would test for F9. You do know
that the express install has changed for F9? Now you don't include the express

Fumio,

InteractiveObject.mouseEnabled for over_mc cannot be set.

The statement should be placed in the second frame of the btn_play, or
inside the over_mc itself.

A quick-n-dirty way to prevent the first frame from loading before the getURL

My understanding is that preloading implies that you are loading the entire

before starting a progressive stream playback. I think that by definition,
