Play FLV using AS3

Question

I've made an animation in After Effects and got the output in FLV. It's 84MB in size. I've added it to my Animate file's library. I need to play that FLV in various movie clips. As of now, I have added the FLV directly onto the stage. It's used like 5 times and thus, the size of SWF is going too high because of multiple instances of the same FLV. Is there any way I can add that FLV directly to stage and start playing it using Action Script? It's something like we do with audio. Instead of adding the same audio to different keyframes, we just add actions to play the audio from the library. How can it be done in the case of FLV?

use the netstream class to play a video using actionscript.

but, even easier, add your video to a movieclip timeline. add that movieclip as many times to your project and swf file size will not increase beyond the size required for one movieclip instance.
