Import it into a seperate Flash file then use it through loadMovieNum

i know that if i import the avi file into flash and i export it like swf, i can use loadmovie from the main flash movie but i don't want to import it, because i have many avi files in a directory and i want to play these files from flash without importing them....

i want to create a like slide show but for the video
if you have any idea please let me about
thanks
