This sounds like a simple question, but i’m sure i’m just missing something. I have two movie instances, one plays on start, the second is stopped until the first movie reaches a certian frame number. Unfortunately I cant seem to find a trigger event that applies to a movie timeline instead of a button or movie object. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Thanks
