If you Import and select a Director movie file, you have a choice of
leaving it externally linked or not. If you don't leave it linked, it
will be imported as a film loop. If you do leave it linked it will be
one single member that you can drag onto the stage.
At that point you deal with it much as you would a movie in a window.
You use the Tell command to talk between things inside the linked
movie, or to the stage from within the linked movie. The syntax is
just about the same, except instead of saying tell window "window
name" to do whatever, you would say tell sprite spritenumber to do
whatever.
One of the settings in the member is whether the scripts are enabled.
You would want to turn that on if you're planning on the movie to be
working as an interactive movie.
