I have made a powerpoint like presentation using flash’s Slide Presentation format. In one of the slides i have added a video using the flv playback component. How do i set it so that the video auto starts and stops when the user enters and exit the slide? I don’t want the video to start playing from the beginning of the presentation before the user has entered the slide and i don’t want the user to have to click the play and stop buttons to control the video when he reaches the video. I imagine i will need some sort of actionscript to do this. Can anyone help me out?

Thank-you!
