ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Multiple Thumbs?

Nov 13, 2006

I have created this XML image viewer from multiple sources and Scotty's help . I have run into a problem where my thumbnails I load are quite large .swfs...and I need to preload them all until I run the grid_maker_01 function to display them. I have tried many things...but still am having a problem. I need to preload all the thumbs first, THEN display them.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Reliable Preloader For Multiple Thumbs?

Oct 20, 2009

I am having difficaulties getting a preloader to work when I have multiple thumbnails loading. I am trying to simply have the loading spinner movie (preload) dissapear when the image is loaded, and the image fade up (medThumbLoader)Each instance of the thumbnail is contained in a movie clip (so approx 12 instances of these) generated via xml, with the following code, I assume as each is in an individual movie clip the variables wouldnt clash: Im not sure if you can use getbytesloaded for multiple instances though?

medThumbLoader.loadMovie("/gallery/"+gallID+"/rep/represent.jpg");
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
l = medThumbLoader.getBytesLoaded();

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Photo Gallery - Replaced The Original Thumbs With New Thumbs It Got All Screwed Up?

Jul 24, 2006

I was working with the XML Photo Gallery Thumbnail Tutorial on this site: http:[url]....

And I modified it for my own usage, making it a vertical gallery instead, and had no problems until I came upon the thumbnail images. When I replaced the original thumbs with my new thumbs (that I sized based on width, as it is a vertical gallery) it got all screwed up. The images are of all different shapes. So when it loads up, some of them had huge gaps in between them, and others were even overlapping. So I fixed it by making the heights of all the images the same, resulting in a working thumb gallery, but now half my thumbs are cropped off by the mask. I'm looking for a way to fix it where I still have the same spacing between the images, and that they are all the same width, but can vary in their height. Here's the section of the code I am using:

function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);[code]....

I'm also trouble figuring something out from the same tutorial, that I want to change. The tutorial uses these "Next" and "Previous" buttons. On the far right hand side, the half-circle buttons are what I assigned this to, but I don't really want them to have that function. I would rather have them function just like how the mouse functions when it rolls over the thumb gallery, except they scroll the thumbs up and down when clicked.

Flash - Preloading SWF From Multiple Sources

Apr 22, 2010

I have a rather big (34 MB) Flash CS4 AS3 swf being loaded as a whole into a preloader like
l.load(new URLRequest("sample.swf"));
What are my options to minimize loading time? Can I split the swf and load from several servers? I'm dynamically loading images from the library:

var myBitmapDataObject:myBitmapData = new myBitmapData(100, 100);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myBitmapDataObject);
addChild(myImage);

Right now I'm declaring/referencing every single image in order to get it included in the compiled clip. Any better way? Haven't got round to using Flex yet.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Multiple Swf Files

Jun 29, 2006

my site pretty much work like a slide show. the navigation (6 buttons) takes you from one place to another, moving the content back and forward. The problem with this, is that pretty much all content have to be loaded from start, sometimes when the page loads slow or you are on a bad connection, you get transported to a blank page, since that swf haven't been loaded yet.I'll give you my structure also.[code]If i could combine these two scripts, i think i could get the solution i'm looking for.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Multiple Preloading Query?

Jan 29, 2009

Just a quick query about how Flash handles the preolading of multiple external images. I'm not after code examples, because I know there are an abundance of them around, but I need to know how Flash is able to store the images. Do they all have to be loaded onto the stage, or can they be effectively loaded into the library for dynamic creation at a later moment?

For example, I'm creating a very basic Flash gallery which loads a series of jpegs, using paths from an XML file. The way I'm doing it is to drop the image paths into an array, and create an empty movie clip for each jpeg, into which they are loaded. I then set the visibility of all but the first containers to false. Am I right in thinking that if I was able to preload the jpegs without instantiating them, I wouldn't have to create individual containers, and could just attach them dynamically when required?I know that in AS3, display objects can be added to the display stack without actually creating instances of them (with addChild). This is the sort of thing I'm hoping to be able to do.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading The Multiple Sounds?

Jun 11, 2009

In my app, scenes on the stage play based on user interaction, and are accompanied by sound clips that are loaded through a soundLoader class (see below). I can play the correct track from the model, but I can't figure out how to correctly write a loadTracks function that will proload all of the track options for a given scene, and then play the correct one based on what the user clicks without a pause. How would I preload and store those sounds in a way that I can use them when needed?

Code:
package mvc
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.media.*;
import flash.events.*;

Actionscript 3 :: Getting Metadata From Multiple Preloading Video

Nov 28, 2010

I found out that I could only get the metadata of the 1st video I clicked. How does metadata works? It could only load once before the video ends?

Here's some example what I'm doing

//will be adding new video when this function is called
public function set newVideo():void
{
videoProperties();

[Code].....

I tried to load all the metadata at once, but seems like it needs the video to be play only it will manage to get the metadata.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Multiple Images From Xml With BulkLoader?

Sep 3, 2009

Anyone have any experience with bulk-loader for multiple files? Its great for preloading single files, but I am now trying to preload essentially a folder of images. The images have different names (and will change over time), so I can't just create a for loop to preload for example 'image01' then 'image02' etc. They are referenced via XML however, and I'm wondering how I could loop through those, and use bulk-loader to retrieve these...? Essentially I'm confused about integrating XML nodes with bulk-loader, and then also about how to do it with multiple images...?

Actionscript 3.0 :: Preloading Multiple External Swfs?

Oct 24, 2011

I have two swf files that I exported from After Effects. They are both fairly large (1.7mb and 2.6mb) so I decided to load them into my main fla externally. This works fine but the playback is a little choppy. I tried creating a separate preloader.fla that will play my main movie once it is loaded. This doesn't work though since my main movie is only 4kb (since all the swfs are externally loaded). With me so far?

So then I created a regular preloader inside my main fla. Here is my code:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Multiple External Swf Files?

Apr 19, 2007

I'm working in Flash MX

I made a site completly in flash.

But to lower file size I made the each section a different swf file

when you click a link you will have to wait for that section to load, it would be good if peoples can see the loading progress while they r waiting.

And i hav added a preloader in each of the external swf file.. and then i realise that if i wanna change or modify the preloader, i will have to change all the preloader too.. this is really kicking axx..

is there a way where on the main page there is only 1 preloader needed to show all the external swf files loading progress? i am using an empty mc as container to load thoose external swf files..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Multiple Flv, And Play One At A Time On Each Click?

Nov 10, 2010

I'm creating a video player that have 2 ways of playing the video file. 1st is by streaming. Will play the file directly on each click/ 2nd, is by preloading the video. And only plays it when its fully loaded. But while its preloading, I could still able to click on others video as well to preload the videos and put them on queue for playing.

Currently I'm on the 2nd stage. The problem I'm facing now is it only plays the sound bout not the video. And it overlaps. I'm not sure I have to duplicate the NetConnection or NetStream like how we usually do to duplicate some MovieClip.

ActionScript Code:
public function set newVideo(v:String):void
{
currentStatus = "play";

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading And Playing Multiple Flvs Without A Pause

May 12, 2008

I've searched around and havent really found anything definitive about this. Im trying to preload five flv files and then get them to play one after the other with as little pause in between as possible. Im thinking I might need to create five netstreams and then pause them, check to see if theyre loaded, start playing then first when they are with the others hidden, then after flv one is done show the container for flv two, etc. Ive done a test and I still get a bit of a jump in between flvs. Has anyone done then and got it to work without that hiccup?
