I have a MainMovie that has a large slideshow movieclip on one of its timeline. Because this slide show clip is large, the whole movie is taking a long time to load.

I want to split out the large slideshow. So that my MainMovie loads first and is completely functional. Then it should load in the large slideshow clip.

How can I do that? I’m assuming I need to have two FLA’s and a placeholder clip that loads the slideshow dynamically? Can someone provide more detail? I don’t know how to load the external clip dynamically.
