I am attempting my first Flash project. I am working on an idea for the Flash intro page.

I imported a FLV video to my Flash stage and I made it a movie clip symbol.

I want the movie clip to play at beginning of timeline but then I want it to stop at a particular frame/time stamp and no longer play for the duration of the timeline (so in essence it will freeze frame on a particular spot).

How do I do this in actionscript and where do I put the action (on timeline or one actual movieclip symbol of my FLV)?

Thanks.
