hey i have a patch that i thought was good to go but for some reason when i try to play one video and then i stop it, the sound carries on even though shouldn't the sound also stop if the video isn't playing?

Hi Veronica,

Yeah there are actually quite a lot issues with your patch. Jit.qt.movie is quite limited in terms of controls and many other aspects. Jit.playlist may be your weapon of choice here if you only want to trigger two videos by your controller value.

in your original patch your "stop" message is incorrectly connected to the toggle object and not the jit.movie object.
