Further to my last problem, I am also having a problem removing a custom UI seekbar.
It seems that once the SeekBar instance has been associated with the FLVPlayback instance, it will remain on screen even when I try to set its visibility to false. I am using the Flash 8 FLVPlayback Component and the FLV Playback Custom UI "SeekBar" I associate the two as follows: my_FLVPlybk.seekBar = mySeekBar; The seekbar functions correctly. However if I navigate to a different section that has no video, the seekbar remains on screen despite the fact I call this code: if (Section_Data[currentSectionIndex].videoClip == "none") { trace ("Hide Video Elements"); video_bg._visible = false; play_btn._visible = false; pause_btn._visible = false; mySeekBar._visible = false; my_FLVPlybk._visible = false; my_FLVPlybk.stop(); } All the other elements are hiding correctly. My feeling is it has something to do with the fact I am only hiding and stopping the actual video. However I have not found out any other way of removing the video apart from this way. Setting the contentPath="" gave me an error. Any help much appreciated!

However I notice that even when the video component is not visible, the video still plays - so if a user navigates to a section with no video, I can still hear the video playing. I guess I could just stop the video, but I wondered if there is a better solution.
