flash seekbar indicator won’t go away

PROBLEM: The Flash seekbar indicator is still on screen when you navigate to a different frame that doesn’t even have the seekBar

I came across this issue when I wanted to add just the seekbar to the flv component and not have the entire skin. I will use my chapterTest flv from an earlier post for the sake of simplicity. Here is a screenshot of the interface with the flv and seekbar

SOLUTION:The very simple way around this problem is to actually put the seekBar inside a movieclip and reference it there - that’s it!

So my actionscript originally looked like this:import mx.video.*;
//flv playback component instance name=flv
//seekBar component instance name=seeker
flv.seekBar = seeker;
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
gotoAndPlay("end");
};
flv.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);

and changed to this:import mx.video.*;
//flv playback component instance name=flv
//seekBar component instance name=seeker
//place seeker inside movieclip instance named seeker_mc
flv.seekBar = seeker_mc.seeker;
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
gotoAndPlay("end");
};
flv.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);
