Rewinding imported videos:  
I can remember a book that showed me how to do it, but i can’t remember how.

Can anyone refresh my memory?

Supposing that your video is located on the timeline, all you have to do is make have it play backwards, which can be done by setting an onEnterFrame to go one frame back each time. Like this:

```auto

theMC.onEnterFrame = function(){
this.prevFrame();
if(this._currentframe == 1) delete this.onEnterFrame
}

```
