Draw a rectangle on the lowest layer and make it a movieclip. Give it an instance name, something like tvScreen
On a layer above that one draw your television with a hole for the screen below it to show through.
On another layer named actions, put this code to load an external swf into your 'tv'
loadMovie("some.swf", tvScreen);
