Russ,

Do you really have to combine your soundtrack ( wav/mp3 ) and the video
swf into one large file??   Would it not be better to load/stream/control them
independently?  Might make life a whole lot easier.

You can't mix frame rates in the root movie.   Master takes precedence.

If you'd care show the me and the list exactly what it is you are  trying to do,
then some working examples may well fly back at  you!  ;o)

Chris.
