From: Jeffrey Kardatzke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: Controlling CallBack Methods via JavaScript But if you put all the files inside a <par> <seq> FILES </seq> </par> set of tags in the SMIL file, the onClipClosed() doesn't receive a callback between successive clips. And without this you don't be prebuffering on all of your clips. So is there a way to make what I mention above work? Thanks, Jeffrey A.

You will find an example applet and all source code at http://demos.real.com/tools/clipinfo.htm This should be enough detail in combination to setup what you want to do. Basically, I think you use the onClipClosed() method to be called back at the end of each media file. good luck!
