Why does the movie have to be IN the Flash?

Why don't you just control it from Flash and put it beside or below the Flash itself. That should work.

Then again, i guess it just depends on "how much" control you want over the movie. You could of course START it from Flash, I don't know how much further you would need to go with it, such as starting it and stopping it at certain points, but you could get around that by editing the mpeg in a program such as Adobe Premiere, and making it into parts and starting the diff parts, but like I said before, I guess it just all depends on "how much" control you actually want over the movie.

i am having a quick, 5 second mpeg clip pop up in the middle of the intro, thats why i need to know it, the user wont have any control over whether it stops or starts, it will just play in the middle of the intro.

Three programs that can convert video's to swf.
I dunno if this is what you look for. You might try a program that converts your movie in seperate images (eg. pic001.jpg, pic002.jpg...) Then you can load the images directly into a fla. As you might know it will load all the images with the number behind and will put each in a seperate keyframe. And then when you play with framespeed of the fla you will have a movie.

But that would make your movie quite large........

So it's all up to you.

Well, an MPEG in the middle of a Flash movie is already going to be rather large As far as I know there's no way to do anything with it directly in Flash, though you can in Director. Best advice I can give would be to do a trace bitmap on all the frames and use that in your movie.
