_Last video frames from previous selection playing back at beginning of next selection_

Hi,

Having a DVD Video playback problem. This occurs whether using DVD Event Manager or not. Basically when I write lingo to play a portion of the DVD Video it plays the section I request, but as soon as I return to a menu frame and request another section of the DVD to be played (or even to repeat the section I have last played) I always get the last few DVD video frames of my previous play at the at the start of my new section -- even if the new DVD sprite is in another frame. This replaying of the final video frames only occurs for about a half second. The lingo I am using to play the sprite is in a frame script as follows:

on exitFrame me
member("DVD1").play([#title:1, #seconds:10], [#title:1, #seconds:50])
end

I usually access the DVD sprites frame by a "go to frame X " on my buttons from the main menu frame. The navigation part works fine as expected. It is just the repeat of the final bit of the DVD video on the next playing that is proving a problem. This also occurs if I stop the DVD manually with a stop command from a button alongside the DVD sprite and then navigate back to the menu frame as another command -- when I play the frame again it plays from the last video frame played (for its first second).

Has anyone had a similar problem???

My current workaround is to place the DVD video sprite across 2 frames -- place it off stage on the first frame -- placing a 1 sec delay on that frame (before moving on to the next) so that the first second of playback doesn't show on screen.


Using Director MX2004 10.1 Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Win DVD installed
Also occurs on projector playback on Windows XP

Look forward to hearing what your experience has been.
