Hi Cheryle,


Are you targeting the frame you want it to go to as a label? I avoid using

scenes, but in the many debates on the topic here it seems that if you want

to go to a frame in a particular scene it's best to label that frame and

target the label name.

You could also check out the F5 player issues listed at the MM site to see

if your movie is giving the F5 player trouble.
