Hey Irv,

the channel(6) syntax is correct since makescripted takes over the whole sprite channel, with the new DOM that's how you access it, sounds are accessed by _sound.channel(1) or just sound(1)

I'll bet that the problem is in the single line that you showed us:

channel(6).makeScriptedSprite(member("video.mpg")),point(499, 257))

The syntax for makeScriptedSprite is:

spriteChannelObjRef.makeScriptedSprite(memberObjRef, loc)

So, try replacing your line with:

sprite(6).makeScriptedSprite(member("video.mpg")),point(499, 257))

The word "channel" refers to a sound channel, so I'm guessing that your code is trying to go into sound channel 6 and trying to make it a scripted sprite - which fails miserably.

If that does't do it, show us the 5 lines of code in the handler in the parent script.
