Just for fun, I’m developing a desktop buddy app with air. For now the only purpose it serves is as a simple reminder. Download the air package. If you leave the settings at default, it reminds you to fish every 15 minutes.

Don’t have adobe air? Get it here.
To get the length of a loaded FLV, you need to have an object listening to the meta data stream. Here’s how:
var vidClient:Object = new Object();
vidClient.onMetaData = onMetaData;
ns.client = vidClient; //ns is the netstream object
function onMetaData(metadata:Object):void {
lengthOfVideo = int(metadata.duration * 1000)+1;
trace("Length of flv from metadata = " + lengthOfVideo);
vidClient.onMetaData = null;
vidClient = null;
}
If you’re wondering how to actually load and play the flv file:
var nc : NetConnection;
var ns : NetStream;
var vid : Video;
var path : String = "test.flv";
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
ns = new NetStream(nc);
addChild(vid);
//optional events to handle status and error
ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, statusHandler);
ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
ns.play(path);
