I thought I remembered an “onExitFrame” command, but it doesn’t seem to be there anymore.

Essentially, when the button is pushed and the movie progresses to the frame holding the flv player, I’d like it pause the bg loop (or kill it), but to reload or restart it when the user hits a menu button to resume exploring,

Any thoughts? I’m assuming this is a common need…??

Thanks guys!
