trying to control video selection and playback via the data grid.
Getting overlapping playback, despite use of a function to select video, stop present video and play selected video:
private function showVideo(event:Event):void{
//user clicks grid item, selects URL for video playback
myVid.source = eventData.getItemAt(event.currentTarget.selectedIndex).videoUrl;
if (myVid.playing)
//if there is already a video playing, stop it
myVid.stop();
else
//otherwise, just play the selection
myVid.play();
}
//user clicks grid item, selects URL for video playback
myVid.source = eventData.getItemAt(event.currentTarget.selectedIndex).videoUrl;
if (myVid.playing)
//if there is already a video playing, stop it
myVid.stop();
else
//otherwise, just play the selection
myVid.play();
}
the VideoDisplay has ID= myVid and is set autoPlay = False. When tested, the first video selected, and subsequent ones, continue to play (audio) even thought video is replaced by new selection.
Do I need a return or refresh somehow to reset the selection or clear it? Any help would be appreciated.

figured it out...
//user clicks grid item, selects URL for video playback
myVid.source = eventData.getItemAt(event.currentTarget.selectedIndex).videoUrl;
myVid.load();
if (myVid.playing)
//if there is already a video playing, stop it
myVid.stop();
else
//otherwise, just play the selection
myVid.play();
}
