Hi
"playing" is a read-only property of MediaPlayback component. You can use,
MediaPlayback's play(..), pause() and stop() methods control the playback.
I guess, when you bring another component, you can either pause the playback
or stop the playback, all depends on your requirement.
I also notice, you are using id similar to MediaPlayback, choose a different
id for MediaPlayback component instance and refer the component using that
id. MediaPlayback is not a static class.
function triggerHideEffectMediaPlayback()
{
MediaPlaybackInstance.visible = false;
MediaPlaybackInstance.pause();
//MediaPlaybackInstance.stop();
}
Look at following link for MediaPlayback API:

tml
Does that help..

Subject: [flexcoders] media control question
First what a great forum....now the question, I have a media control
to play my flv, but when i click on another 'button' to bring up a
different component in my app, the media controller continues to play
the flv file. I have tried in my AS code that controls my hide/show
functions and I get this error...
"there is no property with the name 'playing'.
and file doesn't even compile and run...
Live docs say that 'playing' is indeed a property of MediaPlayback,
(http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/
wwhelp.htm?href=part2_de.htm)
so why if I try to set that property to 'false' so that when it gets
'hidden' doesn't it shut off?
the AS code is: (MediaPlayback is the ID of the component)
function triggerHideEffectMediaPlayback()
{
// this triggers the hideEffect on MediaPlayback.
MediaPlayback.visible = false;
MediaPlayback.playing = false;
}
do I need to reference my controller via the componentID then the ID
of the controler in the component and then the property? ie
MediaPlayback.myMediaPlayBack.playing = 'false';
