An update to my previous post: I got bored waiting for the answers to come flooding in, so I wandered over to Direct-L and spotted a strikingly similar thread there. Trolled the archives from a few months ago and thought I had the solution. I added a global flag to my prepare/startMovie handler so that it wouldn't run twice. Reset it on stopMovie. Worked a charm. It still crashes for me. With amazing regularity in the same movie every time now. I'm navigating from a movie that has a DirectMedia sprite playing. I've tried pausing/stopping this video before issuing the 'go' command, but it still crashes. I'm getting more and more resigned to not being able to do the preloading I was hoping for. Unless anyone has any suggestions ... Thanks for listening. Sean Wilson. > This prepareMovie handler was causing intermittent crashes. Never the same > place twice.
