  ooh thats a tough one..have you thought of getting rid of the frame altogether?

  Adobe should be contacted about that.

  I tried hiding the frame, in Flash, but it still happens. Also tried adjusting the timeline in AE, and had no luck.

  But, for some reason, I re-rendered again in the same exact way I was doing it before, and it miraculously worked. I'm going to leave well enough alone and just count the issue "fixed".

  have you tried exporting out of quicktime using the perian codec? perian exports out FLVs but i dunno if it's to the same specs as you need... maybe worth a shot?

  http://perian.org/

  Haven't tried Perian, I didn't know it was an encoder? I just thought it was a plugin to view FLVs with quicktime, thats all I've used it for.

  As for the issue, I was able to get it to work in one instance by putting a black shape, the exact size of the video, behind the flv's first few frames. Setting this box to 1% transparency makes the red artifact (which has been switching colors by the way!) go away. There is one more instance where it still happens, and that treatment isn't working yet....

  its easily the most frustrating thing I've come across in a while.

  Some debugging tips:
  - Maybe try viewing the SWF/FLV without SWF Object, to see if its SWF Object that might be causing it.
  - Drag the SWF into a browser window and see if it shows the artificting.
  - Open the standalone Flash Player and see if it happens.
  - Try exporting a QT out of AE "uncompressed", meaning choose "None" instead of "Animation. Take out the alpha channel, and then re-import it into Flash Video Encoder. See what happens.
  - Try embedding the FLV into the FLA, inside of a movieclip and see what happens.

  Basically, just keep narrowing down things until u can try and isolate the issue.
