I have a movie with embedded video, it is about 2 mgs and I know flash has a natural streamer however - it seems to get stuck when I put it live. I want to load 400 frames then start the movie - so it gives it some buffer time.
I tried doing a frame based preloader (yes - I know this is depricated) by putting this code on frame 1 on the root with frame 3 being the first frame of the embedded video.
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (_framesloaded>=400) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
};
When I test it in simulate download, it goes till 400 frames – then plays (3) – however the video doesn’t play – just sits still. This is very strange, I’m really not sure what I’m doing wrong.
I’d appreciate any help… thanks
