How can I make movies in a slide play & pause simultaneously?

Processor: intel

The slide contains several, embedded (inserted), Quicktime movies each of duration 2 sec or 4 sec). They are set to loop.

I have experimented in Slide Show / Custom Animation. however, I have not succeeded in getting the desired simultaneous starting and pausing of the movies.

I want to be able to start and pause as many times as I want before changing to the next slide in the presentation.

The closest I've come to date ia as follows.
in Slide Show / Custom Animation, I set a first 'Effect' in the 'Animation Order' pane by selecting 'Pause' and 'Start On Click' for one of the movies.
Then I set 'Effects' for each of the remaining movies by selecting 'Pause' and 'start With Previous'.

When I click on a clear blank space in the slide, all the movies start to loop. When I click again, all the movies pause. However, on the next click the slide changes to the next slide.
