Hi Hithesh,

To pause a .dir movie just type the following in the
message window while the movie plays;

pause

Or you may use a mouseup handler!!
Now everything should stand still in the stage
including sound, flash sprites and even video files.

To continue the movie from where stopped, type

continue

in the message window. You can hear the rest of the
stopped sound file, also your video starts to play
from the paused point onwards!!!

-------------To grimmworks--------------
As grimmworks said, the code 
on exitframe me
  go the frame
end
is very bad way of getting the said result. Suppose
you are having one wav file placed in frame 1 of sound
channel 1. Also hope you have a video sprite too in
frame1, channel 20 or so. Now will the video and sound
ever PAUSE if you put the script shown above into
script channel of frame 1?

I have the answer, NO.

Ofcourse you can pause the movie using the above code
provided, you are using cell animation technology,
ie., if a ball moves from left to right from frame 1
to 20, and you put the Grimm's code into frame 1, the
ball freezes!!!!!!!!

But it's not the way to go dear with Director and
Lingo.......

Regards,

Biju George
