    Most flashmeisters, like myself, have moved on to players that load MP3 files directly and use an xml playlist. This provides for easier maintenance and is really a better way to go rather than loading SWFs all the time.

    It's really something Macromedia needs to remedy.

    Dynamic loading of text, audio, images, etc... is really what allows designers/developers to leverage Flash as a truly dynamic development tool that gives clients CMS options on the back end as well. Reverting to use of SWF files is really a step backward. Maybe Macromedia will step it up in Flash Player 8.0 ... guess we'll see.

    If there was a fix for this, someone like Moock (see: http://www.moock.org/asdg/codedeā€¦) would have figured it out. He has some nice code samples, but I've not seen any definitive fix.
