Ryan, The Flash Player will always wait for all content on a frame to load before progressing to the next frame. Ie: if you have a very large clip on frame 5 of your timeline and not much on the frames before it may stream the first 4 frames then pause for a very long time while the 5th frame loads.
The only way around this is to preload a certain amount of the clip before starting by either using getBytesLoaded() == whateverAmount or if it's easier you could stop the animation until _framesloaded == oneMoreThanTheTroublesomeFrame Streaming things efficiently takes a little thought... Open up the bandwidth profiler to check the weight of certain frames.

I'm trying to get this to load smoothly, but it seems that Flash doesn't resume playing until the entire embedded movieclip is loaded. Is is possible to get flash to stream an embedded movieclip down to the browser, without waiting for it to load fully? thanks, bye ----------------------- Ryan Sabir Newgency Pty Ltd 2a Broughton St Paddington 2021 Sydney, Australia Ph (02) 9331 2133 Fax (02) 9331 5199 Mobile: 0411 512 454 http://www.newgency.com/index.cfm?referer=rysig --- You are currently subscribed to fugli as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Aussie Macromedia Developers: http://lists.daemon.com.au/ --- You are currently subscribed to fugli as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Aussie Macromedia Developers: http://lists.daemon.com.au/
