Hi Samir,

One thing I forgot to mention. If your original is a simple Tween then
you should probably use the Duplicate and Reverse frames method because
it uses less bytes. If you are going to add more features like fast
forward or fast rewind then use the Control Movie Clip technique. If
your animation is frame by frame then this techniquie may be cheaper.
