So i have been working on a project, its a digital portfolio. Now I have the Host Movie and and then I have a submovie which is loaded into the Host movie. That all works fine!

Here is my problem… I have embedded a video onto the stage and when I click the exit button to go back to my host the video still plays. Here is my code.

function exit(event:MouseEvent):void {  
var parentObj:Object=this.parent.parent;  
parentObj.closeMovie();  
}

exit\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, exit);

var movieLoader:Loader = new Loader();

function addMovie(event:Event):void  
{  
var movieRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“face.swf”);

```
movieLoader.load(movieRequest);

addChild(movieLoader);
movieLoader.x=30;

```

}

face\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN,addMovie);

function closeMovie(){  
removeChild(movieLoader);  
}

function addMovie1(event:Event):void  
{  
var movieRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“ipod.swf”);

```
movieLoader.load(movieRequest);

addChild(movieLoader);
movieLoader.x=30;

```

}

ipod\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN,addMovie1);

function addMovie2(event:Event):void  
{  
var movieRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“monitor.swf”);

```
movieLoader.load(movieRequest);

addChild(movieLoader);
movieLoader.x=30;

```

}

monitor\_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE\_DOWN,addMovie2);

function closeMovie1(){  
removeChild(movieLoader);  
}

I also have 3 other objects in the submovie which loads 3 other sub movies.  
Inception!

They work fine, but yet again the video still plays in the background.

Any help would be appreciated.
