Hi there  
I have implimented a video handler class to part of my project. What it is intended to do is remove the playing video using the netStream method and create a new instance with a new video file.  
I can remove it using a standard removeChild function. However the pain occcurs when I can still hear the audio palying.

I guess my issue is that this is handled in a class and every time I create a new video it creates a new instance of the class.

My question is then how do I call netStram.close() from another class before creating a new video instance.

Here is the guts of my code if anyone could help.

\*\*linked class for a gallery displayer  
[AS]function on\_Press(e:MouseEvent):void {

```
var my_thumb:Loader = Loader (e.target);
my_thumb.alpha = 1;
if(clicks &gt; 0){
		removeChild( videoContainer )
}
videoContainer = new MovieClip ;
addChild( videoContainer )

getVideo = new videoLoader("redbelt.flv");

```

videoContainer.addChild( getVideo );  
videoContainer.x = Number(my\_thumb.name)\*100;  
clicks ++;  
}

[/AS]

\*\*videoLoader Class  
[AS] package com.myVideo{

import flash.display.Sprite;  
import com.myVideo.simpleFlv;  
public class videoLoader extends Sprite {  
var v:simpleFlv = new simpleFlv();

public function videoLoader(callTarget:String) {

```
		v.playMyFlv(callTarget);
		
		addChild(v);

```

}  
private function removeVideo():void{  
v.playMyFlv.closeMyFlv();  
trace(“remove”);  
}

```
}

```

}[/AS]

\*\*simpleFlv Class  
[AS]package com.myVideo{

		_timer = new Timer(1000);
		_timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);

	}

		connection.connect(null);
		
		_stream = new NetStream(connection);
		_stream.play(flvUrl);
		
		var Client:Object = new Object();
		Client.onMetaData = onMetaData;
		_stream.client = Client;
		_video.attachNetStream(_stream);
		
		_stream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
		
		addChild(_video);
		//addChild(_playbackTime);
	}
	
	public function closeMyFlv(){
		_stream.close();
	}
	
	private function onMetaData(data:Object){
		_duration = data.duration;
	}
	
	private function onNetStatus(e:NetStatusEvent){
		_video.width = _video.videoWidth;
		_video.height = _video.videoHeight;
	}
	
	private function onTimer(t:TimerEvent){
		if( _duration &gt; 0 && _stream.time &gt; 0 ){
			_playbackTime.text = Math.round(_stream.time) + " / " + Math.round(_duration);

	}
}
