Hi Andrew,

2) You can create the MediaDisplay and set visible=false so it doesn't show up 
until you want it. If it doesn't start buffering, you should be able to 
kick-start it by calling load().

1) What do you mean by "load content"? You can download whatever you want, 
whenever you want, from a remote object or web service. You can load assets 
like images by creating them, but making them invisible (like what I suggested 
above). 

Hope this helps,
Adam

Subject: [flexcoders] Loading in the background

Im quite new to flex and was hoping somebody could answer the
following questions:

Does flex allow you to load content in the background so if i decide
to go to a new "page" the content could already be there?

Also, probably more importantly, is it possible to start streaming for
a MediaDisplay in the background so once a user views the MediaDisplay
the  
whole video is buffered or a significant portion has already been
buffered?

Thanks

Andrew
