Are you loading the new movies onto a higher level?  There should be no

problem with that.  Just have them start in an empty, parked (stopped)

frame so they're invisible until told to play ahead.  When you tell one

movie to play ahead, tell the currently playing movie to go to its parked

frame.


Or am I missing something?
