It's a real question, but may be a non-problem ;-) The player object
purges the prepared movie if you close it (e.g., when you go to
another card) or set the fileName property to empty. Under what other
circumstances should it do this? Maybe when you hide it? But that
might make hiding and showing slower...

Good idea. Maybe even better would be to accept a parameter with
command? So the callbacks property could be something like:
1234, mycallback cb1
2345, mycallback cb2
The parameters could only be fixed strings, though. Would this be
better than returning the time, or just confusing?
