flash (macromedia): I'm very new to Flash, and this is what I'm trying to do:

I have a psd file that I've been using in Encore DVD as a menu. There are 4
buttons that play four different videos when clicked. I want to have this very
same type of navigation and control in a Flash movie.
The user will click one of the buttons, and that video will start. When the
video ends, they're back at the menu again.

I have imported the psd into flash cs3 and that much is working beautifully. I
have all my up, over, down states set and it's good to go.

Now, how do I get these buttons to play the correct videos when clicked? I've
been trying different things, but nothing is working. I know there's probably a
good deal of Action Script involved, I just really don't know where to begin.
I really only need this Flash movie to do the simple tasks I have explained
above, so I currently don't have time to go through entire training tutorials
and such just to gather a few tidbits of info I need to make this work.

Any and all help/insight you all can provide me is greatly appreciated.

You need to put a FLV Playback component on the stage and give it an instance
name like vid. On your button you can specify the contentPath which will add a
video into the player component. EX:
on(release){
vid.contentPath = "your-first-video-name-here.flv" //this is the path of
your flv movie
}

Make each button add a different video into the FLVPLayback component using
the same technique. We'll go to the next step after you get this part working.

Thi might help
