I have a .fla file created by our designer and he has created a set of SimpleButtons that I have wired to a video player. Now I need to set the status of a button to "over" if the video that it is associated with is playing.

The scribd fullscreen mode is pretty neat (example: http://www.scribd.com/doc/13161906/Java-Lab-Manual-With-Java-Installation-Guide?classic%5Fui=1).

Update 6: Fenomenas suggested me to re-create everything as simple as possible. I had my doubts that this would make any difference as the algorithm remains the same, and performance did not seem to be the issue.
