Hey

I’m dynamically importing swfs for all my pages on this new site I’m working on. One of these pages has a video library. The problem is when someone goes to another page (by clicking a menu item in a different (imported) swf (menu.swf)) , while a video is playing. The sound still plays even after the ‘old’ movie is unloaded and the child is removed.

Is there a way of ending all sounds, no matter the source?
