Hi,
Yeah you can. If it is progressive flv download, then as
soon as some video is buffered you can play it.
If you are using flashcom, then it would be pure streaming
and you can play...
I think, you can set the buffer time
using:
NetStream.setBufferTime(..)

For this you can use mx.core.Application.application.myFunction(myArg)
