Any chance the member's property is set to "paused at start"? If not, you
could always drop this behavior on the sprite:
on beginSprite me
sprite(me.spriteNum).movieRate = 1
end

Boy oh boy oh boy. You have no idea how many of us got bitten by that when
updating projects from versions of Director that DID support it.
Fortunately, I only had one project that was affected :). I don't know why,
but Director now thinks it knows better than we do how to find our external
assets. It can be a challenge if a strict directory structure isn't followed.
