ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop A Buffering Movie From Loading?
Sep 28, 2011
I have a page on my site, that has thumbnails for about 9 videos that are external and loading through the FLV Playback component. Everything works great unless the user decides to move on to the next page, while a video is buffering (pre-loading). If the buffing bar is showing and click to go to the next page the video continues to play once it is loaded. You can't see the video, but you can hear the audio from it. Sometimes if you are too click happy, you will get the audio overlap of two different videos at the same time.
Is there anyway to stop videos that are loading when you click the button to go to another page?

I have some videos that are already in FLV format. I embedded them inside a little swf. And I embedded that swf into a bigger swf where everything els is. When a user clicks on a button, it loads the swf with the FLV movie in it...how would you go about buffering a video?

I'm making a very simple MP3 player in Flash CS4 Professional 10.0.2 that loads a song from an array containing the locations of the songs and plays it. The player also displays the artist and song info name in dynamic text fields as specified in the ID3 section of the MP3 file. It works as desired when I load the MP3 before playing it. This is the relevant portion of the code, highlighted in green to indicate that it functions as I want:
[Code]....
What's odd is that if I comment out the last two lines of the onID3 function, so that the function only performs the trace command that's highlighted in orange, it works! This tells me that it's loading the ID3 information. So why can't it display the information from the currentSong variable?
EDIT: I'm pulling the MP3 files from the same server as the SWF. I would not be pulling them from a remote location!

Take a look (click on one of the right banners): [URL] The lightbox should almost immediately play the videos, but instead (only) with ie7, the video take a really long time to start. All 3 videos. But only the first time I play them. So, I suppose there's maybe some loading or buffering problem that occurs only with ie7. The swf files are simple default FLVPlayback pointing to a .flv in the server. Any way to optimize the playback so that will start soon in all browsers?

I am loading a showreel in my flash file using this:
[Code]...
The .flv is 35mb so the video is understandably jumpy. I was wondering what i should do to get round this... Is there a way to buffer it at the start so that there will be no glitches in it? The showreel has already been compressed quite a lot so can't shave much off the film size...

Is there a script that can cancel out re-loading a loaded .swf? i have 4 buttons which load 4 different .swfs, so when you click on button one, movie one loads, but if the user clicks on button one again the movie re-loads again.

Just wondering if anyone had a good tutorial for making a buffering video player, with scrubber etc that lets the viewer see how much of the video has loaded whilst they watch it. I've been searching for ages but to of no avail!The kind of thing I'm after can be found at www.hi-res.net on the 'showreel' section in bottom right corner.

I recently to created a simple movie with FLVPlayback component. I have customized all of its controls (play, pause, volume, progress). I have also created a simple Table of contents for movie with four buttons. Every button jumps to different place in movie.
Problem starts to happen when i want to jump to movie position that haven't been downloaded yet. My question regards this situations. Can I tell FLVPlayback component to start buffering from different position?
In other words do it always have to be starting from begining of the movie. Can I start buffer movie for example from the middle of it?

I'm building a video player, and I'd like the play to show a "Loading, please wait"-type animation whenever the video is buffering and not playing. (This is either when the user enters the page and the video has to buffer a bit before it can start playing, or when the video suddenly stops midway because the internet connection can't load video fast enough.) Is there a way to detect when this happens and show the animation accordingly?

Im attempting to make a preloader. I am very new to action script so this is what i have.
Code:
ifFrameLoaded ( "UC" ) {
gotoAndPlay ( "home" );
}
as simple as it gets, right? Wrong, the preloader works however is get this error 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. The preloader it self works it plays and when the movie is loaded it begins the movie, however the movie doesnt stop at any of my stop commands and keeps looping through itself over and over again till i exit the window.

I have two xmls, xml1 and xml2. Both have same structure, only data are different. Button 1 loads xml1 and button2 loads xml2. Both calls same function to load XML. First i press button1, so xml1 starts loading, but if before xml1 is completely loaded, i press button2, xml2 also starts loading. If for some reason the xml2 loads first i get data from xml2. But when i look at the bandwidth profiler in flash , xml1 is still loading. When xml1 is loaded it will replace data from xml2. SInce i pressed button2 last, i would want data from xml2. So is it possible to stop loading the previous xml when i start loading another xml?

Ok, this may be a little challenging for me to explain. In my portfolio section, I have a few links under an empty movie clip. These links are client names. When clicked, they are supposed to load an external swf into the empty movie clip. The problem is that if I click on one, then rapidly change my mind and click on another, the originally clicked external swf never stops loading and then my links stop responding.

I have a parent swf (parent.swf) which contains a loader (galleryLDR). The parent.swf has 2 buttons (button1 and button2) which will each load a separate swf (gallery1.swf or gallery2.swf) into the galleryLDR depending on which button you select.
If begin to load gallery1.swf, then decide to load gallery2.swf instead while gallery1.swf is still loading, the loading of gallery1.swf does not immediately terminate. Instead, gallery1.swf finishes loading, then the loader removes gallery1.swf and starts loading gallery2.swf. The code below is what I am using to attempt to cause the galleryLDR to immediately stop loading the any swf, then immediately load gallery2.swf.
how to immediately stop a loader from loading an external swf and the dynamic loading of images within the external swf? Below is what I've tried, but it doesn't work.
ActionScript Code:
if (galleryLDR != null){
galleryLDR.unloadAndStop();
}

I am creating an image gallery where the user can select from several thumbnail images. Once selected, the thumbnails will enlarge and load the full sized image. My problem is that while the user is waiting for the full sized image to load, he may decide to close that image and view another image. I am trying to find a way to stop a loader from loading. Here is the code I have used. My problem is that even though the user has clicked on the unloadBtn, the loader continues to load the file. Is there a way to disable that?[code]...

- I need to call loadSound() multiple times, to load different mp3s time to time, all of them in streaming. But as I call it more the once on the same instance the old mp3s keeps anyway loading.. how do I stop that?
In AS3 would be a simple .close(); ... but I can't really figure out how to do that in AS2.
Here some sample code:
// Works and Plays
_global.global_music = new Sound(this);
_global.global_music.loadSound('music/song1.mp3', true);

i setup the development versionof fms 3.5 server on windows 2003 server and it worked great in my tests.so we bought the server and are putting it in production now.the only problem is i never "tested" large FLV files.now if i put a large 50+megabytes flv file in the server it constantly buffers on the client.Is there a setting that defines the buffer size to increase the amount of buffer data that gets sent to the client?if i use a small flv file it works flawlessly but for large files it says "buffering" every 2-5seconds on the client.the client is just opening the test page that comes with the server the server has 3000mb/s to the internet and the client has a 20mb/s connection so i don't think bandwidth is an issue...
