Ok I’ve got the FLV playback using FULLSCREEN capabilities working 80% there… I have one issue and that is, if I let the video start playing, and jump to the next frame, the video is supposed to dissapear, and it does.

BUT if i watch the same video, click fullscreen then come back down to regular size, and navigate to the next frame it does NOT dissapear…

seems like a really strange issue, and I am fairly new to AS3 but have a very good understanding of AS2. I can’t use any of the old tricks like removeMovieClip ![](http://forum.kirupa.com/uploads/kirupa/1446/86871bc131dfdcf1.gif)

any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

you can use removeChild or removeChildAt instead of removeMovieClip. Try and get away from using frames.

Thanks for the reply, I saw the removeChild in the AS3 Help, but I am dropping the component on the stage from the component panel, not creating it with code, is there an easy way to figure out the child Id, or reference “index” as i see it called frequently

Click on the component on the stage, then assign it an \<instance name\> (in the properties tab). Then use removeChild(\<instance name\>)
