'STREAMING' preloader? HELP!

programming flash

Hi,

This week, I’m trying to build my online portfolio. I want to include some of the video-projects I’ve made. I succeeded in creating a normal, external .swf pre-loader (with percentage bar etc.) but what I want is this:

When my external .avi or .mov (in a .swf?) is partially pre-loaded I want it to start playing already… A kind of streaming, pre-loader. Exactly like the movie pre-loader used in the website of
www.hi-res.net (check latest work>MTV:New>video’s)!

I really hope that anyone can help me, I already searched tutorial-databases for days…

Welcome to the forums =) It depends on how you’ve set up your preloader. The most common preloader should be able to do it with this:

[AS]
//preloader code…
if(bytes_loaded == bytes_total/3){
holder.gotoAndPlay(1)
}
[/AS]
