Trouble adding video controls to video selected by XML comboBox

I'm much closer to my final desired outcome, thank you.

Two remaining issues, when I hit previous and next, the name shown in the combobox sometimes gets out of sync.

Also I can't seem to get the video scrubber to work.

Hello, it's been a few years since I've touched flash, so perhaps I'm just overlooking something. If anyone could look at the code and offer any suggestions that would be awesome.

What's working, I select a video from a combobox that is populated from an XML file, pick the video and it plays.

I've been trying to add pause/play, stop, forward and reverse functionality, once I get that to work I also want to add a video scrubber(slider), and previous/next buttons to go to the previous/next video as listed in the xml file.

At the moment I have a component button on the stage called playButton, which I'm trying to use for pause/play functionality. Below is my code, the player control is at the very bottom. Thanks.

import fl.data.DataProvider;

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var videosXML:XML = new XML();
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var request:URLRequest= new URLRequest("xml/videos.xml");
var videos:Array = new Array({label:"Select a Video",data:""});
var client:Object = new Object();  

theVideo.attachNetStream(ns);
ns.client = client;
 loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderOnComplete);
 loader.load (request);

function loaderOnComplete(event:Event):void{
    videosXML = new XML(event.target.data); 
    for each (var video:XML in videosXML.video){
        videos.push({label:video.name.toString(),data:video.url.toString()});
    }
    moviesCB.dataProvider = new DataProvider(videos);
}

moviesCB.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);

function changeHandler(event:Event):void {
    if(ComboBox(event.target).selectedItem.data != ""){
        ns.play(ComboBox(event.target).selectedItem.data);
    }
};

client.onMetaData = metadataHandler;
function metadataHandler(md:Object):void{
}

//player controls
playButton.onRelease = function() {
    ns.pause();
}

I think you want to do this (Click Handlers are different in AS3)

playButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onTogglePlay);

function onTogglePlay(e:MouseEvent):void {
   ns.togglePause();
}

You should really put a listener on the NC for the NetStatusEvent and then create the NetStream once the connection is connected.

The answer to my original question was to use stream.bytesTotal and stream.bytesLoaded instead of ns.bytesTotal and ns.bytesLoaded
