Changing movie URL without losing other movie properties

Hey all,

I am trying to change the URL of a movie (using javascript) as follows:
document.showreel.SetURL(URL);
However, I find that all the original settings for that object are lost so for example, I have to reexecute the following
document.showreel.SetBgColor("#000000");
document.showreel.SetControllerVisible(false);
document.showreel.SetVolume(255);

etc etc. This however does not usually work (e.g. the controller becomes visible and the javascript call is ignored (maybe it hasn't initialised!?- do i have to set a timeout or something!?). Is there a way to change the URL of a movie without losing the original movie properties?

Thanks very much in advance,

Will Ryan

PS. I am using the AC_Quicktime.js file to embed the movie in the first place e.g.

QT_WriteOBJECT_XHTML('http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=H6W63FQK;m=mp4' , '428', '256' , '', 'ID', 'showreel', 'CONTROLLER', 'False', 'KIOSKMODE', 'True', 'ENABLEJAVASCRIPT', 'True', 'QTSRCDONTUSEBROWSER', 'False', 'VOLUME', '0', 'ASPECT', 'Scale', 'AUTOPLAY', 'True', 'BGCOLOR' , '#000000', '#objBGCOLOR', '#000000', 'HREF', 'http://www.willryan.co.uk', 'TARGET', '_blank', 'QTNEXT1', '<http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=FMB856S6;m=mp4> T<myself>', 'QTNEXT2', '<http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=FMB856S6;m=mp4> T<myself>', 'QTNEXT3', '<http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=FMB856S6;m=mp4> T<myself>', 'QTNEXT4', '<http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=KCSGZBEH;m=mp4> T<myself>', 'QTNEXT5', '<http://cdn.chillibean.net/perl/rplay-2.0.pl?t=FMB856S6;m=mp4> T<myself>');


which generates the following HTML:


<object id="showreel" width="428" height="256" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab#version=6,0,2,0"; classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B">
