It might help if you were to explain what you're trying to
accomplish.
With the two stop()'s, you can't expect the playhead to go
past them
without some trigger, like onRollOver or onRelease, etc.
The purpose of
stop() is to stop the playhead from going past it.
It would be interesting to see the other projects like this
that you got
it to work without a trigger.
Wish I could help more, but without more info....
