Subject: RE: First frame
Not necessarily true. It may work on some platforms but using
PREFETCH=true does *NOT* guarantee that the player will either
a) display the first frame, or
b) stop at the first frame
We wanted to FREEZE-FRAME too but after 4weeks of effort found
that the only thing you can rely on is javascript events being
fired when prefetch has completed. Avoid doing anything fancy
or you will regret it!
G7 doesnt improve in this aspect, I look to future versions to
properly freeze frame!
Good Luck!
Andy
