No

I don't think it's as bad as you might think. I had an F4 movie with a *lot*

of scripting that wouldn't play right in the F5 player, but after reading

the documents from Macromedia at

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/ts/documents/player5_issues.htm , I

was able to correct it in about 20 minutes (it was a problem with the

instance names I had been using). If you follow these guidelines, but still

think the player is acting buggy you should email

flash5_playermacromedia [dot] com
