I have a video object that I load with variables and then play based on a button that gets clicked. This works perfectly. Now what I want to do is be able to click another button and have all the videos play one after the other. I can't seem to get my head around how to do this. I have tried a timeline and a couple of other things but all they do is play the initial video and then stop or go to the last video and play it as if it is the first.

Any thoughts?

Edit Actions for VideoObject 2, create a 'Synchronize to End' Trigger and point to VideoObject 1. Then add an Action to 'Play VideoObject 2'. Read the Help file on the 'caution' for using it.

Then you just have to work out how you want to 'manage' when and how to Hide or Show the different objects... or simply put them in a MultiFrame and make a 'go to Frame' action part of a Simultaneous ActionGroup.

Other things to explore: 'Consecutive Action Group', or Case Action. Custom Triggers. You might also look at a sample pub posted by Fred for the use of Case Action.

thanks for the response will look into various things

i did get it working with multiframes - not as elegant as i wanted but as a "brute force" method, it will do if needed.
