Here's another way:

Horribly wasteful in terms of file size, but guarantees no dependency on
external components.

This will allow you to show a SILENT "film sequence":

1.  Export your movie file to images (say 25 per second).

2. Import them into a hidden card in your stack [think BLOATWARE].

3. On the card where you want to present the film/animation;

  create an IMAGE that has the exact dimensions of the images

  Menu : Object/New Control/Image

4.  Pop a script like this into your button:

on mouseUp
  put 1003 into FRAMEK
  repeat for 356 times
    add 1 to FRAMEK
    set the imageData of img "SHOWBOX" to the imageData of img ID FRAMEK
    wait 2 ticks
  end repeat
end mouseUp


However (you know how I love replying to my own messages: plays hell with the stats):

Setting the imageData of a blank image plays the animations at something like half
the speed of setting the icon ID of a button.
