preloading sound

[jonny boom]

hello,

ive used this tutorial to link up sounds to my website.

http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Au...-824/index.php

but running into problems when i set up a preloader.

because all the sound files load into the cache before the preloader is activated. the browser has to stare at a blank screen for a while, then is flashes 100%, and runs .

is there any solution to this problem>?

thanks,
jboom

You must have used attachSound(), which will load everything in the first frame even you have a preloader. So, why don't you just use Sound() object's loadSound() command to load it externally.

You can simply uncheck the linkage "export on the first frame" box (but leave the other one checked...) and drag instances of your sounds on stage, usually in unseen frames between your preloader frames and the actual starting frame of your movie...

Or don't touch the linkage bits, and use a seperate new preloader only movie, which will load your present movie cleared of it's own preloader...

This is an example...

Links removed.
