Josh,
The "long name" includes the object specifier, so I don't think you need to
use the object with the long name, like "enable btn tLongName" but do
instead "enable tLongName"
As to why 'set the filename of tPlayer() to "blahblah.mov"' isn't working,
I don't know. If you use "long name" instead of "long ID" does it work
more reliably? You might want to put the return of tPlayer() into a
variable and make sure it does contain what you are thinking it should in
all cases.

To easily identify a specific control on a card in a stack, what
method do you use?
I have been trying several, and am getting intermittent bugs...
---
method 1: set the calSender of stack "greenbongo" to the long name of me
or
method 2: set the calSender of stack "greenbongo" to the long ID of me
then, in scripts:
send "datePicked" to btn the calSender of stack "greenbongo"
or
put the calSender of stack "greenbongo" into tSender
send datePicked to tSender
or
put the calSender of stack "greenbongo" into tSender
send datePicked to btn tSender
This usually works but bothers me because the custom property
actually starts with the word "button", so I am saying "btn button..."
---
method 3:
function tPlayer
return the long ID of Player "video" of cd "this" of stack "that"
end tPlayer
then, in scripts:
set the filename of tPlayer() to "blahblah.mov"
This works sometimes, but seems not to work other times.
Sometimes I resort to the full "pathname" but this makes scripts
dense and cluttered.
Thanks for clearing up this foggy area for me!
