Hi all,
Thanks for all the advice, I can now confirm the following solution appears to be working:
Sending a message of [rate 0( or [rate 1( to the [pix_movie] object will pause or play the video respectively without re-starting the clip
I have also maintained the [auto 1$( message to the [pix_movie] object so that the video will auto start on it's first play, with no initially visible problems.

As when I try this, it causes the video to pause but then I can't make it restart without destroying the Gem window, deleting the two rate 1/0 buttons and then re-starting the patch?
Does pix_film do the same thing? Also, try using 'auto 0' to pause. I have fixed up the pause function since the release of 0.90 - it's a bit tricky with QT handling the playback via 'auto' and 'rate'.
