Thanks - yeah you are right, I was mistaken that the video was still there as I had a black overlay movie clip the same size as the video on a higher layer.
However I notice that even when the video component is not visible, the video still plays - so if a user navigates to a section with no video, I can still hear the video playing. I guess I could just stop the video, but I wondered if there is a better solution.
