I just tried it by routing the TouchSensor.isActive to a Valuator with
factor 0 and offset -1 and the output of this valuator to the
mediaStartTime.  It's value changes but the result is the same - the
video doesn't PAUSE correctly. 
Then I decided to make a test with the envivo content. I extracted every
needed stream of the mp4 file with mp4tool (scene, video, audio ...) and
and muxed together again to an mp4 without a change. And now it comes:
the scene lookes exactly the same BUT is has the SAME Error as my scenes
right now. If you press the PAUSE button - the video "is going on in the
background". The same scene does different things. What could be the
reason for this??
Maybe it's a bug in mp4tool. What did envivio different by creating the
scene? I found that the scene time of the envivio sample scene is 20min
whereas the time of "my" envivio scene was just as long as the video.
Could there be some problem with the time bases resulting in these
problems?
I will post this problem and the link to the thread in the envivio
support forum - maybe they know an answer.
