hello everyone,
i've been trying to find an answer for days now but without much luck.
using adobe flash catalyst, i recently created a website with videos (FLV format) and when you click onto any one of them, they will load and play. but here's the problem - they won't play immediately (unlike youtube), and most of the time when you click on a video, you'll have to wait (the loading bar won't even start downloading until a good 15-20 seconds) while some videos would load and play immediately.
i understand there's an actionscript for a preloader to set the buffer time and have the selected video to load and play immediately upon clicking.
i found this actionscript:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
//attach videodisplay
_level0.attachVideo(ns);
ns.setBufferTime(0);
ns.play('http://static.askapache.com/f/flv/create-boot-ini.flv');
ns.pause();
ns.seek(0);
(source: http://www.askapache.com/flash/preloading-caching-flv-mp3.html#m0-askapache1)
i haven't tried using that script on flash builder because simply i don't know where to put it, or if the script would work at all on builder (i heard actionscript works on adobe flash?)
this might be a really stupid question to you guys but i'm just starting out with websites and hope you could help me out.
much appreciated.
