How to speed up movie clip from inside container file?

I created a Flash file (which I'll call "movie 1") in which a movie clip was inserted. When I play the whole file, the movie clip runs too slowly for my taste, but I noticed that if I go to the original movie clip file (which I'll call "movie 2") to slow it down and save it, getting back to Movie 1 and updating the clip is impossible due to some motion tween that's misbehaving (no clue about how to solution that).

Is it possible to speed up the movie clip from inside Movie 1? Some kind of scripting or simple tool? I'm quite a newbie to Flash and perhaps there's an easy solution to it. Otherwise I will fix Movie 2, export it and reimport it inside Movie 1 until I am satisfied with the result.

TIA

Correct answer kglad

the code below the dotted line adds two new method to movieclips, playF() and stopF(). the first allows you to play any movieclip from frame m to frame n at fps frames per second (forward or backward).

(for precision control (when syncing audio and visual) i have other self-correcting code to maintain an accurate frame rate.)

Thanks a lot, kglad. In the meantime I resorted to modifying the actual movie clip in its own file and then re-importing, but your information is valuable and your help, much appreciated.
