Re: FLASH: how to preload diff movies?

[John Croteau]

Hi Kartik,


> But isnt flash streaming? would it work?

Yes, a single Flash file can stream, but having to files stream on the

web at the same time is unlikely. Though a browser may allow more than

one file to load at the same time, the web may not be so cooperative.

Files are assembled based on when packets are received. There is no

guarantee that when more than one file is requested that one or the

other will arrive first, or that a needed section of one file will be

available when a corresponding portion of the other file is ready.  


If you are downloading files or using a second browser at the same time

you are trying to stream any file (Flash, Real or otherwise), the

streaming is likely to be interferred with and you are likely not to

have smooth streaming.
