FLVPlayback FLV Preloader
Here’s a way to Preload flv files before you play them in FLVPlayback component.
import mx.video.*;
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
my_FLVPlybk.progressInterval = 001;
my_FLVPlybk.autoPlay = false;
listenerObject.progress = function(eventObject:Object) :Void {
var perc = Math.floor(eventObject.bytesLoaded * 100 / eventObject.bytesTotal);
this.loading_mc.load_txt.text = perc + "% loaded.";
if(perc == 100)
my_FLVPlybk.play();
}
my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("progress", listenerObject);
my_FLVPlybk.load("yourflv.flv");
You can hide the player while its getting downloaded and show it when its fully downloaded. Make sure to set the autoplay option to false.
Happy coding

Would that work with action script 3 flash cs3…if it supposed to, this is the error I’m getting when I use the code.
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Void.

Not sure regarding AS3. The code provided above is for AS2. Probably you can remove the Void return type for AS3.
