Pausing timeline when pausing a video
I think I can help. I did it this week
You can create a layer without nothing on it an call this layer like "pause_timeline"
Than u set this layer config to pause base timeline when the layer is show.
Now, everytime u call the video player to pause, u call the layer too. :D
Here an example attached
In this example I made some buttons OUTSIDE of the stage just to call other layers and hide other layers in a specific time.
So when u reach 5 seconds of the video you will see a marker and if you click on it, it will pause the video AND the base timeline (because I call the "pause_timeline" layer)
At 10 seconds the marker desapear, at 15 seconds a new marker apear and at 20 seconds desapear again.
Check out Andre's unique solution to a common problem of pausing the video on the base layer. It is brilliant!

Thank you very much! I should have looked at that file more closely. It looks pretty challenging, but I am going to try!
