If this is Windows have you tried killing soundKeepDevice on startMovie?: on startMovie the soundKeepDevice = FALSE END startMovie Only one sound driver on the designed-and-used-by-geniuses Windows platform can be in use at ay time, and Director seems to be a little slow on the uptake when it comes to surrendering one so another can load. Since MP3 and WAV surely use different mix outs, this might do the trick for you. -- Warren Ockrassa | http://www.nightwares.com/ Director help | Free files | Sample chapters | Freelance | Consulting Author | Director 8.5 Shockwave Studio: A Beginner's Guide Published by Osborne/McGraw-Hill http://www.osborne.com/indexes/beginners_guides.shtml [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
