Hi,

If i am good on this point, i think that the meta tags used in 

the html page containing the .swf can be informative for the most 

meta search engines.


On the same html page, the comments "url used in the movie" are 

usefull too. to allow the search engine to follow these link, why 

don't you put these url on empty link, using a code like:

<a href="(the url you want the search engine to follow)"></a>

with nothing between the begin and e
