Delay on video playback?

Hi everyone! When I use a movie in my game, there's a small delay before it plays, so for example if I transition to a movie backdrop, for a split second you'll see the transparent background before the movie starts playing, meaning I can't get a smooth transition into the movie, is there any way around this? Perhaps a way to preload videos so they play instantly when called or something like that?

Thanks in advance fro any help :)

I'll look into preloading videos and audio at some point, but for now, 6.99.14.1 should help with this some. You might also want to put the movie on top of a background of the first frame, which you'll see instead of the movie until it's loaded.
