View 1 RepliesI want to stop ProgressEvent.Progress and two seconds to determine whether the Internet connection is dialup. Is there a way to stop ProgressEvent.Progress when bytesLoaded < bytesTotal? Right now, the event continues until the entire *.jpg file is loaded and/or creates a fatal error closing Flash. Here's the code I'm using:

Problem that I want to share with you is that I have two external swf. One is swf generated by Flex IDE and second one is generated by Flash IDE. When I load flex swf, loading progress output is not showing until the whole file is loaded. This problem is not presented when I load flash swf as you can see on this testing page 90.157.198.254/test/test.php.

I'm currently working on a game and I'm trying to work out a way to load images externally and display them on the screen.But the problem is it won't load them correctly and display them, as seen below...
ERROR:
Code:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChild()

On the second frame i got:
Code:

I have a fla file that loads a slide show from an XML file. The xml file contains info about each slide. There's over a 100 slides so the loading takes some time. However I'm not getting actual load progress. It traces nothing until after the load is complete and then it shows the progress that it should have traced one by one, however it traced them all at once on the complete. Because it's not firing the onProgress correctly my preloader is rendered useless. Am I doing something wrong on is this a bug in Flash?

Okay I made a photo Gallery using a Loader in the Components tab. I'm making the different frames load different pics (changing the Content Path of the Loader on each frame) so now when I go to my gallery after uploading it to the web then it takes a while to load the pics...so what i want is just to show the people that the photo is loading and that its not nothing on the gallery.
View 3 RepliesIs there a surestarter preloader in AS3 with CS4? Meaning here, showing a progress bar or percentage value before loading the main swf, right away at the start of the loading.I tried 3 different versions:
1- I used the code from a video (and accompanying files), and simply changed the content.swf to my own swf file (rename my swf content.swf), so that the original code would load my swf instead of the original content.swf. (original content.swf was too small to see anything before loading, because my loading speed is too fast).Here is the code from the original preloader (loads a small swf which then loads the main swf file):
var l:Loader = new Loader();l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);l.load(new URLRequest("content.swf"));
function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void{ var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal; percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();}[code].....
I'm trying to load PNG images with ActionScript with a Loader object. This works fine for some of the images (the INIT and COMPLETE events are fired as expected), for some other it doesn't. I've read in this thread that a URLLoader might help, so I tried that, using the loadBytes() function afterwards. Still doesn't work: the URLLoader fires the COMPLETE event, but the LoaderInfo object does not.I've written a sample class that demonstrates the problem with two files (one working, the other one not).
public class LoaderTest extends MovieClip {
var output:TextField;
var loader:Loader;[code].....
All images were generated with the PHP GD library and I'm compiling with SWFTools's as3compile.The two images map_in_big.png and map_us_big.png are in the same folder (not allowed to post more hyperlinks).
I have a gallery where passing over the image a rectangle drops down showing the caption for the image. The informations are read from an XML file and some of my images don't have a caption, for those emails I want to avoid the tween.

View 1 RepliesReal novice here, I have an xml gallery that works just fine my only problem is that i have no way to show the user the load progress between each image. Being as rubbish as I am I cant update my code to indicate this.Im sure that someone here will find this challenge really quite easy.I have placed my code beneath for anyone willing. I have also highlighted where my when my photo loads (i think). Thought I would add the whole code just in case it was needed.I would like something as simple as this below for each image, this is what I use to load the whole gallery
Code:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(_root.getBytesTotal());

I have a function that loads a room and when I load the room I have progress bar that displays with the percentage downloaded. The percentage text seems to be resetting with each load of an image but not the progress bar. How do I reset my progress bar?

I'm currently loading an image dynamically into a loader using this script.Code:loadMovie("1.jpg",_root.sliding_content.content_2.contents.example_birds.work_page.myloader);All I'm trying to do is attach a progress bar component to this loader. Other images get loaded into the same loader component using the same actionscript as above but with different file names.I'm having difficulties getting the progress bar to show the progress - when it gets to 100% disappear and then reset and reappear when another image is loaded into the same loader component when the action script is called again.
View 2 RepliesWhy is it image is not uploading when im running on swf version, but image uploading works when im running the exe version of the flash project? And how can i add a progress bar to check if the image is uploading or not? Oh yeah, im new at actionscript so please go easy on me. anyway here's the code.
Code:
import com.adobe.images.JPGEncoder;
var jpgSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData (container_mc.width, container_mc.height);
jpgSource.draw(container_mc);

And how can i say to image_mc to load the jpeg at the center of image_mc's axis. So that when i flip the image, the image will flip vertically at the center?
I'm writing a simple image preloader and attempting to use ProgressEvent.PROGRESS on my Loader to update a simple graphic bar. All pretty standard fare so far, so I'll show you the code:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
The problem is that the "loadingProgress" function gets called twice by the aforementioned listener and so adds the ENTER_FRAME listener twice. Then, only one is removed so if I trace the value of "percentLoaded" it never stops. Is it standard that the PROGRESS event calls it's given function twice? If so, I obviously need to rethink the updating of the loader graphic.

i have build a flash project where most of the content externally loads in to the main movie. for each chapter i made a "Loader" component, and a "progressBar" connected to the "Loader". during building i was re checking that all is working well (test movie with "simulate download"). then, i was uploading it to my server and when i view it on "fireFox", or "Safari" , it all working. but, when trying to view it on "IE", i never see the "progressBar" and, all the Actions that relate to the "on (complete) {}" never happens.
View 3 RepliesI have built a site the loads external swfs for each page once the button is clicked on the main fla. im trying to add a custom animated progress bar (fade in, show progress, fade out, show content) for each page but not sure how to go about it.

View 14 RepliesAlmost every flash player has an option to display how much of buffer (or % of total video) is downloaded to the client. At the moment I don't see it in any implementation of html5 video player.
The real problem I am trying to solve is to have a way of knowing % of downloaded asset (image/swf/video whatever). In flash its easy by using MovieClipLoader and bytesLoaded property.
Is there any way of doing it in HTML/HTML5/Javascript (without relying on Flash) ?
How can I command the pre-loader to track the progress of the download?
public function loadImage(filename:String):void

I want it to while still easing into place like the iphone does. For example my stage is 550px. The drag and throw MC is 1650. That's 550x3. If the first image is showing starting at x axis 0 and you drag to the left it will ease into place stopping and showing the second image stopping the image at x axis 0. And the same thing scrolling to the next one and scrolling back. So the code is below and I've attached the movie that I'm working on.

I have created the following preloader saved as "preloader.swf" that loads an external SWF file as follows:[code]I was reading to try avoid the PROGRESS and COMPLETE events since these events don't work 100% of the time.Now my question is this: is there a way of how I can go about to have the same functionality of loading an external SWF file (as above) but WITHOUT using the PROGRESS and COMPLETE events?

Is there any way to display the playback progress of an external loaded .swf file BUT it is not made with timeline animation? I mean I used TweenMax for the animation on the loaded .swf and due to this the totalFrames method doesn't seem to work... Is there any solution for this?
