Erasing a videoclip after it has played.

I'm playing a 68 second videoclip then automatically moving to the next card. My problem is that the videoclip remains on screen and blocks out the text on the next screen. I thought that using this script would solve the problem but the image of the last frame carries over to the next card.
Here is my script:
on mouseUp
play videoclip "jonesmovie.mov" at 606,155
wait 70 seconds
set the dontRefresh of videoclip "jonesmovie.mov" to false
wait 2 seconds
go to next card
end mouseUp
I thought the dontRefresh script would solve the problem but it doesn't.
Any ideas on what I need to do?
Thanks,
Doug Gilliland

Hi gillilandd,

try to set the "dontrefresh" BEFORE you play the video.

Best
