my_video.
var connection_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

NetConnection, attachVideo (Video.attachVideo method)
onCuePoint (NetStream.onCuePoint handler)
onCuePoint = function(infoObject:Object) {}
Invoked when an embedded cue point is reached while playing an FLV file. You can use this
handler to trigger actions in your code when the video reaches a specific cue point. This lets
you synchronize other actions in your application with video playback events.
There are two types of cue points that can be embedded in an FLV file.
■ A "navigation" cue point specifies a keyframe within the FLV file and the cue point's time
property corresponds to that exact keyframe. Navigation cue points are often used as
bookmarks or entry points to let users navigate through the video file.
■ An "event" cue point is specified by time, whether or not that time corresponds to a
specific keyframe. An event cue point usually represents a time in the video when
something happens that could be used to trigger other application events.
