just curious what happens if you swap the order of the movies in the  
HTML source... try putting the 2nd movie first and then see what  
happens.

i'd also be curious to see if the same thing happens with 2 different  
swf files - try just making 2 different swfs and put them into the  
page and see if you still have the same results.

then try putting your two videos on a new page, with nothing else on  
it and see if that still causes the problem
