    How do I make a "poster frame" button on my FLV video in AS3?

      Hi -

      There used to be a way, in AS 2 to put the FLVPlayback component on frame 2, a poster frame JPG on frame 1 and some actionscript in frame one saying  -

      when the user clicks on the JPG, Play.  This would move the timeline playhead to the FLV, hide the JPG, play the video - very simple.

       

      NOW - after not touching Flash (v11.5 Mac) for a year - I need to do the same thing in AS3.

       

      Can someone please point me to, or plug in the code for how that is done? 

       

      TIA in advance.
