Hi,

I have a problem where multiple video streams, which are slowing a page
down (download time) ... see here:
http://www.fotoko.com/?str=1N%3D%2A%5C%3BKLP6R%3DT3%5BB%2E1R%0Dpy%1B

The video does load ... eventually, and then works fine on subsequent
visit due to caching ... my issue is with the loading times on the first
visit.

So, I need to control the way video is streamed to the page. Bearing in
mind that the video only needs to show a preview in thumbnail mode and
stream only when the thumbnails are clicked, I thought the following
process would be best ... and I was wondering how to achieve step 2 as I
am fine with the rest.

1) Start streaming (progressive) video into a Video symbol (using
netConnection() etc)
2) Detect when the first frame has loaded << HOW!?
3) Once the first frame has loaded, draw the video into a Movie Clip
(using draw() etc)
4) Stop streaming the video (until the thumbnail is clicked).

Any other suggestions are of course welcome!

Note: I am loading in the images one by one to reduce simultaneous open
streams, but the video's will potentially be too big to wait for to use
this approach.

Thanks,

Jason.
