Hi,  
I’ve searched around and haven’t really found anything definitive about this. I’m trying to preload five flv files and then get them to play one after the other with as little pause in between as possible. I’m thinking I might need to create five netstreams and then pause them, check to see if they’re loaded, start playing then first when they are with the others hidden, then after flv one is done show the container for flv two, etc. I’ve done a test and I still get a bit of a jump in between flvs. Has anyone done then and got it to work without that hiccup?

Thanks.  
Paul
