NetStream Class Stop Action

Question

Problem: When using multiple instances of a FLV player in a
FLA AS3 and when one navigates to another frame the video still
plays from the earlier frames as one can still hear it...
I tried to implement loading a "phantom-light" FLV on the
frame change to stop the video playing but I was not successful,
note the code at the bottom...
What can be done?

Answer 1

I realize you fixed your problem but it sounds like your
problem was not
just that the video continued to play but that it persisted
and you wanted
all vestiges to be gone. For future reference, I had the same
problem. I
used the removeChild () call and it fixed my problem. But
that's not saying
much because I still don't understand the code I've grabbed
from the
internet to play video on my website. In Lingo it was just
referring to a
sprite and issuing a play () command. It's much more
complicated in Flash
but I'm slowly learning.
