The idea is to retrieve only the sound track of the flash video, that can be helpful in some cases .
Basically, i really didn't want to install another dummy free mp3 converter soft that wouldn't work at the end with .flv files (but this you find out usually after the installation) .
So how to retrieve a sound track from a .flv and transcode it directly into an MP3 ?

i was developping a video player lately , and i found out there was quite a few problems with the flash Slider component... The problems i met was when i tried to place a second slider on my player , and evetually tried to change its appearance ... Even if you can skin the player at your wishes, i didn't manage to skin two sliders differently .
Normally, the setStyle function should do the job, but even though i managed to skin the thumb differently ( ThumbUp, ThumbDown , ThumbOver ) through the use of the setStyle function , i never managed to change the trackSkin appearance.
