Hi sorry am still quite new to all of this.
I am using an instance of the FLVplayback component with the instance name of movPlayer, the movie it is set to play is quite large and I only want to load it once it is needed (I have also set the movie to download entirely before it can be played). To do this I have created a function called loadTrigger:

Here is my code:

function loadTrigger():void {
	movPlayer.autoPlay = false;
	movPlayer.source = "media/movie1.mov.flv";
	movPlayer.load(movPlayer.source);
	movPreview.movPreLoader.visible = true;
	movPreview.movPreLoader.alpha = 1;
	movPreview.movPreLoader.loaderAnim.play();

	//MOVIE PLAYBACK
	movPreview.movPlayBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);
	movPlayer.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, hideMovPreview);
	movPlayer.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, showMovPreview);

	//MOVIE LOAD
	movPlayer.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
	movPlayer.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
	
	trace("movie1 Load Trigger OK!");
}

This generates the following error:

VideoError: 1000: Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server

This is the section of code I am having trouble with:

movPlayer.source = "media/movie1.mov.flv";
movPlayer.load(movPlayer.source);

I know the movie file is definitely there, if I set the FLVplayback component to autoload, then everything works fine. But as I said I only want to load the movie when and if it is required due to it's size.

Any help with this code would be great, thank you for your time.

Are you sure it has nothing to do with the ".mov.flv" extension for the file ?
