Very nice work :). Just two comments, both about the button designs: 1) Shouldn't the pause/stop button be a square instead of a pentagon? I found it confusing initially, and 2) Might consider putting screentips on the buttons' over state. I just checked my shareware JetAudio, and its screentips also include performace characteristics for the fast forward and rewind buttons.

When I created the play stop, I found that two buttons would jamb the player. So until I create a button that can switch from states, say play is a triangle and pause is two skinny rectangles, I am kinda stuck. (not sure of how to do this at the moment , mabye you know an easy way.) But I can change to a square for now. I can also add FPS. It is in the code at the moment but has no text box assigned to it. Can't think of any other thing to display.

I don't know how to do screentips in flash. Can you give an example?

Jet Audio combined the triangle with the rectangles in a single button too represent Play/Pause. Probably to tight for your design. Hmmm...

Re screentips, just add a static text box to the over and down states for the button. Nothing easier :). In the attached zip I added text to an imported button. Since the button state is similar to a timeline, the textbox(es) can be placed anywhere.

Here is an update.

still not perfect and has a few problems but were fixed with hard coding. I see what you mean with overstates but for now I do not want to redo the buttons as the were copied from one button and changing the overstate effects all.
