View Full Version : Loaded Movie restarting on CD-ROM but not locally

I am utilizing the loadMovie function on a CD Rom project and I have run into an issue.
I am loading a SWF into Level 1 (intro.swf) and then from that SWF I load a soundtrack SWF (introMusic.swf) into Level 10.
The idea behind this is to bridge the first 2 sections (intro.swf & sections.swf) of the presentation with the soundtrack SWF's music. On the local files the soundtrack SWF plays thru the intro and into the next section just fine and the music fades out at the proper time. When I move the files to the CD, the music still loads properly but restarts when the next section (sections.swf) is loaded.

I am confused as to why it would not do it locally but on the CD it restarts the movie in Level 10. I don't think it's an issue of file location because flash finds introMusic.swf... so why would it restart the movie in Level 10?
I am using Flash MX.

Any help is appreciated :)

I too doubt it has anything to do with the location. I'm guessing you have some rogue script somewhere which is reladiong the sountrack, or restarting it. Perhaps you're calling a frame number or frame lable which doesn't exist any more (that would cause the timeline to replay from the beginning)... There could be other causes too but there's a start for you.

I have been thru the Movie Explorer and no stray actions to be found... and it doesnt restart on the local version. Weird.
Thanks for the help anyway. :)
