Right now what happens is that I have a play and stop button that work on the page, but if the person were to leave the video page without pressing stop first the video continues. I have managed to stop the sound by writing: SoundMixer.stopall()  
but if you go back to the video page, you will see the video continued playing just without sound.  
Also, since I have background music throughout my site, I need a different way to stop the music, without stopping all of it.  
Also, just writing Flvplayer.stop() doesn’ tdo anything…  
Can anyone help please?
