Assuming you have Macromedia/Adobe Flash MX2004 or better, there are many tutorials out there.
The best (in my opinion) would be Lee Brimlow's gotoAndLearn.com.
Lee's site along with Flash 8 LiveDocs (search flv) should get you where you want to go.
All of Lee's tutorials are based on the actionscript side of flash. Where livedocs will teach you how to use components as well as actionscript.
Have fun with flash and gallery.

Let me know if you build an FLV player you are willing to share. I find the G2FLV to be a little "basic" (i.e. movie scroll bar kind of lacking).

The FLV players on video.google.com and www.youtube.com are nice examples

Are you referring to the scrubber?
You have to remember, these flvs are "progressive" downloads, not true streaming like google and youtube.
You have to wait for enough of the movie to load before the scrubber works.
Or you could spend the money on Flash Media Server ($2500.00) for true streaming.

Actually the source is available in svn, but with the new versions they are kinda in limbo.
Just completed first round of code reviews for new players.

The bufferTime of player is too much small

with this swf, you can set the buffers externally.
flashvideoRenderer.class add a line around line 64:
$flashVars .= '&sb=10&lb=20';
so it would look like this:
$flashVars = 'streamName=' . urlencode($src);
$flashVars .= '&sb=10&lb=20'; // short first pass buffer(sb), and long secondary buffer(lb)
and set your buffers as you like
the new versions will have this also

suprsidr,
but with a dynamic buffersize that adjusts to the actual transfer rate and movie duration we wouldn't have this problem.
i know, i'm repeating myself
when watching trailsers on your demo page i have the same issue. it's usually not as bad as with the earlier versions of the player, but as long as we use fix buffer sizes we'll have this problem and the result is pretty unsatisfying.
(on the other hand, i'm confident that i'd rarely have this problem on my webhosts server since i usually get huge d/l rates from there).

@valiant
When doing a progressive download there is no automatic detection of bitrate or client connection.
Flash Media Server($2500) on the otherhand can detect client connection and adjust the bitrate automatically.
the only article I could find and was aimed at the flash media server crowd.
I'm open to any ideas on how I could implement such a dynamic buffering system.
And hopefully on my new site you don't experience the same unsatisfying experience.

i sketched the algorithm for such a transfer rate detection / buffer adjusting code in a previous thread / discussion.
i'll get back to you when i have some time.
and no, don't see any problems on your website. didn't realize that this is your domain, good name and the player there makes me proud to have such excellent flash movie support in g2.
