read flv metadata without netStream class

Hi,

Trying to build a flv player using the media component. I am not using the netStream class because I need the cue points which the media components offers..

My problem is that I cant figure out how to read the metadata for duration. I read somewhere on the forums that the new 1.2 video update would make the component to read the duration data by itself but that does not seem to work either...

I have tried to use the netstream class just to make sure that the duration is added to the flv, and then it works.

Any thoughts about this would be great!!
