SWF 2 contains a button called play_btn. When you click the button, it connects to SWF 1 and

passes two variables. The first variable contains the MP3 file to stream, and the second variable is

the filename that you display in the Label component instance in SWF 1.

play_btn.onRelease = function() {

var sending_lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();

sending_lc.send("lc_name", "playMP3", "song1.mp3", "Album - 01 - Song");

};
