[Live-devel] How to Pause a medium

Yes, call "FramedSource::stopGettingFrames()" (or, on a 'sink' 
object: "MediaSink::stopPlaying()" (which calls 
"FramedSource::stopGettingFrames()")).

Note that if you are implementing your own source object, you will 
need to implement the virtual function "FramedSource::doStopGettingFrames()".

See above.  (However, if your CPU is "going wild", then you should 
make sure that your source object implementation is not doing some 
dumb polling.)
