Hi,

Is it possible to stop a progressive download after a certain amount
of the flv has downloaded.

the situation: I have 9 videos in individual screens on stage, on
rollover they start playing individually, whereas the others play only
a small amount and then stop).

the immediate problem is: how can i get the first frame of nine videos
onto the page as quickly as possible. at the mo, it takes a few
seconds on a very fast connection ( i got 10mbit here), and is too
long for a slower connection)

i am looking to stop download of the individual clips after the first
few frames have been loaded.
how do i do that?

i am using vidPlayer_mc.stop() but that only stop playback not
download isn't it? how can I make sure that download has stopped as
well?

here is the current script on the flv playabck component I am using.
the paths to the nine flv's are set elsewhere:

var loaded_interval:Number = setInterval(checkBytesLoaded, 500, flv_A1);
function checkBytesLoaded(my_ns:NetStream) {
   var pctLoaded:Number = Math.round(flv_A1.bytesLoaded /
flv_A1.bytesTotal * 100);
   loaded_txt.text = pctLoaded + "%";
   if (pctLoaded >= 1) {
                clearInterval(loaded_interval);
                this.flv_A1.pause(true);
   }
}

here is a link to the current site:

Thanks,

Nik
