I am using the video component player and it is working fine using this code:

```auto

video.setMedia("elements/flv/episode_1.flv", "FLV");

```

The problem is, if someone is playing the video and goes to another part of the flash movie, the video keeps playing or loading in the background. The video image doesn’t show, but i can hear the audio or see in the browser that it is still loading.

How can i kill the video from loading once the playhead moves from the frame that the video player is on (it is sitting on a single frame)? Thanks in advance!
