Kerry missed a couple things that you said. You have Director 5, and
so that rules out the prepareframe message that Kerry talked about.
Also, I don't think Kerry noticed that you said that the movie loops
through both frames (meaning that the go the frame script is being
ignored), so do check out that diamond I mentioned that may be
disabling the script channel.
By the way, if you have to remain with Director 5, at least get the
update to 5.01, it may have fixed some issues in Director 5. Here are
