public class YouTubeAS3 extends MovieClip {
    private var player:Object;
    private var playBtn:PlayBtn;
    private var pauseBtn:PauseBtn;
    private var stopBtn:StopBtn;

    public function YouTubeAS3 (vidId:String) {

        Security.allowDomain("http://www.youtube.com") ;
                    var loader1:Loader = new Loader();
        loader1.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.INIT, onLoaderInit);
        loader1.load (new URLRequest("http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer?version=3"));

        function onLoaderInit (event:Event):void {
            addChild (loader1);
            loader1.content.addEventListener ("onReady", onPlayerReady);
            loader1.content.addEventListener ("onError", onPlayerError);
