Hello Folks,
I am trying to play around a lil' with Embedded Video in a movie clip.
The whole intentions is that ---> when the mouse rollsover the movie Clip it plays ...once it is out the movie Clip stops...again on mouse Over it starts playing frm where it had stopped earlier.....I have succeded in achieving this...the problem is I want the same video just beside the 1st one........so when the 1st video stops say at frame 65....the 2nd video on mouse Over plays from the 65th frame...........and so on ....with a series of videos.....I wanna create a mouse trail effect such that the videos run in a sequence when the mouse is moved around .but te sequence of the movie is maintained.....
But since I am not very good at the ActionScript ...I had used a lil' logic and commands like gotoAndPlay.......stop etc.. if u have better ideas...I'll love to learn......

Thanx Pals.

Did you try using a "tell target" command to control
the indvidual movie clips?

I would suggest using 'duplicateMovieClip' and storing the current frame being viewed in a global variable which you can then reference to from each movieClip you duplicate. gotoAndPlay is just what you want to use. "tell target" used to be good but it is now depreciated so I would steer well clear of using it as it may well not be supported by future flash players. Use "with" or the dot syntax instead.
