    This effect can be achieved by setting up a sequential preloader. For example, in you preloader script, dictate that once say 60% of the swf has been loaded, it should load the next movie.

    In order for the subsequent movies not playing, you need to "park" the file. That is to say, create an empty frame andn label it "park". The final stages of your preloader script would look something like this:

    if(bytesLoaded == bytesTotal){
    gotoAndStop("park");
    }

    Then on your gallery buttons, you action will simply have to tell the movie to start playing and not loadMovie as it has already been caches - parked!

    If you need me to explain more, email me.
