Chris,

The only thing trick to doing something like this with a loaded SWF is to know the object reference to the video player inside that SWF. If you use the Debugger panel, you can see all your objects in a hierarchical tree view on the left side … let should give you all the pathing info you’ll need. You’ll name the movie clip container that holds your loaded SWF, and then you’ll path do the instance name of the Video object or component that displays your video.

Hello David- is there a way to control the volume with a slider that is in a different SWF?

Alex, Your if statement should be checking of the video's volume is 0 — I'm almost certain that's what you mean — but you're using the Sound.setVolume() method (instead of getVolume()) inside your if statement.
