Hey All,

I have a SWF with an embedded MovieClip. With AS I can control the location, alpha, size, etc, etc, of the embedded clip (or should I say the MC which contains the video) but cannot control the volume of the embedded clip.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Alternatively, can AS set the volume of the entire SWF?

thanks in advance guys,  
mecha

You should look into getting a component. There’s on out there that mimics quicktime
