Is This True? (Image Jitters, Simple ActionScript)

programming flash

I’ve been told that to get rid of image blur from tweens in Flash, one must make a dummy flash file to load the real flash file. So with that in mind—here are the files (they are VERY simple):

http://www.innovyse.com/mm/dummy.fla
http://www.innovyse.com/mm/dummy.swf
http://www.innovyse.com/mm/main_newer.fla
http://www.innovyse.com/mm/main_newer.swf

I have two questions:

  1. Is this the common workaround to get rid of jitters during image zoom tweens?

  2. On frame 1 of main_newer.fla, you’ll see a piece of ActionScript that starts the animation on a random image. However, when I use the dummy.swf file to load the main_newer.swf file, it loads frame 1 of main_newer.swf BEFORE running the ActionScript to select a random frame so there is this flicker of the first image before going to the random image and this is something that I’d like to get rid of.

Any ideas?

Thank you!
