I have not found a use for unload.  If I have a movie that has loaded and

is no longer needed, I just send it to a stopped, blank frame. What I'm not

certain is whether this occupies any more processor power than unloading

the movie.


The one use I can think of for unloading a movie is to replace the level

zero movie for the purpose of changing frame rate. But by loading a new

movie into level zero you automatically unload what was already there, as

well as unloading all movies in all other levels.
