How do i control a movie in a button?

I have a button which instance name is = "home"
I have a movie called "change" which is inside the button on the "over" frame.

Within the movie is a basic sequence for fading the bg, yey i cannot seen to be able to tell the movie to play the "fadeout" sequence.

Can any1 help me ??

Thanks in advance

The only time that clip will actually be seen is when you are over that button. So...if you want to see it, take it out of there!

Then you can control it.

but i want the movie as a bg to the clip, so when i remove my mouse from the button, the movie then plays the the sencond half of the movie, which is the fade out

Right...so then just have that clip on the main stage and tell it to play!

Or perhaps I don't follow ye here? It's a simple task, comrade. An alpha tween would do the trick. Clip covers the entire stage with a blank first frame and a stop(). On the mouse click, you tell that to play, which would go to _alpha = 100 and at the end of it, whatever the next sequence is.

Make sense?
