Movie Clip continuation

[rissac]

Hello, I've created a movie clip rollover effect so when the user rolls over the still image the movie clip plays. What I want to be able to do is when the user rolls on and off the image the movie clip continues playing from where it last played. The way it works now is the movie clip starts from the begining of the movie everytime the mouse rolls over the clip. Is there a way to make this happen? Example below.

Can you provide more info? How are you playing the movie clip now? Is it an MC inside a button? Is it a separate MC? What code are you using?

Here is what I have. First the rollover is not operated by a button. I'm placing a movie clip in side a scene. On the first frame of the movie clip I have a {stop} command which is on my jpeg. And the second frame start the actually movie loop. For my scene I have a script that basically says the following. How would I tell it to contine the movie where it left off?

on(rollOver) {_root.loop1.gotoAndPlay(2);}

on(release) {geturl"http:...";}

on(rollOut) {_root.loop1.gotoAndPlay(1);}

paused = false;
on(rollOver) {
if(!paused){
_root.loop1.gotoAndPlay(2);
else{
_root.loop1.gotoAndPlay(myFrame)
}
}

on(release) {geturl"http:...";}

on(rollOut) {
myFrame = _root.loop1._currentFrame;
paused = true;
}


above ought to work...untested


however you may want to play around with the code a bit more as if users allow the clip to play to the end they can not restart it. also you may want to hide the clip on rollout
