Steve,

So I tried that with 2 of the offending icons, but they are still doing the
same thing. I did notice that the previous author attached a calculation icon
to the movies that says "ambummonvid := IconID". And then in the play option,
there is a calculation icon with the current code:

pause := FALSE
MediaPlay(IconID@"ambummonvid")
Checked@"Playw14" := TRUE
Checked@"Pausew14" := FALSE
Checked@"continuew14" := FALSE

I don't know if this is what Amy was referring to when she asked if I was
using variables, but am wondering if something in this could be causing the
problem.
