Oh sure, that's what I mean by cooperation. Your SWF has to request the other SWF to stop.

That's too bad. On this project, we're stuck then with no support for external .swfs that have sound since we're using FP9. Bummer. I wonder if we could use LocalConnection to communicate with the AVM1 Captivate or Camtasia files to stop the sound. Possible in theory?
