If I were you I would look into NetStream.BytesLoaded, NetStream.BytesTotaland
NetStream.SetBufferTime.  I am guessing that for apps like the youtube
player, the total size of the flv file is passed to the swf.  I know
NetStream.BytesTotal won't return anything in IE until after a flv is fully
loaded.
