 I would instead load the movie into a different level (main timeline is

level0) and put a stop action on frame 1 ( should be no content on frame 1

as well) and then instead of "load movie" use a tell target "_level1/" (if

you load to level1) "Goto and Play 2".

You'd also want to delete all the content for that frame in your first movie

and add a stop action.


hope this helps,
