Real 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 was creating my portfolio using xml gallery script from this site. the thing is that it loads one picture at a the with a preloader between each load. is there a way to load the first image and keep loading the rest so there will be only one loading time? here is my action script:

I wonder if any body could help me. I am currently working on a flash presentation which will be running on a 40" Plasma Screen. What's the perfect size to set up my flash file. At the moment my file is 800 x 600 pixels. I only have one .jepg image at the intro and the rest of the presentation is vector based.
View 1 Repliesok so i've created (X) amount of .flv's and i basically want a slide show but i didn't want to make it all one file bfcuase the time line would be longer. i need to link all the files so that when i play the first one it will auto load the rest one after another.
View 5 RepliesI made a simple animation for a preloader and when the animation is finished a boolean is set to true.At the same time an external swf is being loaded and also sets a boolean to true.If both booleans are true the externally loaded swf is displayed.
The loading works, the booleans work, everything works just fine except the animation when loader.load(content) is initiated. When I comment this line the animation works and offcourse nothing is loaded. When this line uncommented the animation won't work (visibly) but the swf gets loaded and displayed...
in XML gallery , how we can load all images first so that rest of the slide show runs smoothly
For example: I have placed 10 images in XML , when slideshow starts , all the effects not appears , because it waste time in loading each image on its turn I want to load all images first , then want to start the slideshow how i load all images at the start ?
the following code traces the loading status of '1.swf', and once it has loaded, starts loading '2.swf':
preload1.loadMovie("portfolio/100_design/1.swf");
onEnterFrame = preLoadMeter;
var tl:MovieClip = this;

View 1 RepliesI 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?

I am trying to create a interactive video presentation for a company seminar. In this ppt slides will loads according to the cue points in a FLV.
I am successful in loading external jpeg (ppt slides) as the movie reaches at any particular cue point. I am also able to jump to a particular time frame in FLV using navigation cue point.
But the issue is, when someone drag FLV progress bar and it is left between two cue points then the slide doesn't change according to the location of the FLV progress bar.
I've searched a little and in tutorials the progressbar always loads an external mc...I was wondering, is it possible to make the bar load the main movie?
View 1 RepliesI'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?

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.
This might be a tough one, so brace yourself I have a .swf file that plays until a certain frame.
Once the certain frame is reached, I'm trying to play an external FLV file that it loads onto the stage.
Everything works fine so far, I can display a Progress Bar while downloading the external FLV file using this script:

Almost 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) ?
I'm trying to set up a preloader to show the load progress of the main swf, which has all of it's assets embedded. I found the factory class method as described on bit-101, but no load progress ever seems to show. The swf loads fine, but the bytesLoaded is always equal to bytesTotal and therefore the preloader is never called.
[Code]...
This correctly calls the Factory class first, and then instansiates Main and calls init(). But as I mentioned above the preloading is never shown as it seems to be loading everything straight away.Is this a problem with the way I'm embedding the images or because I'm testing locally?
I have a Flash site that I'm designing. The movie that I'm working with is the main movie into which my external .swf's will get loaded into. Now in the very first frame of my main .swf I have the progress bar component setup running in manual mode (I'm running in manual mode because I'm not using the loader component in conjunction with the progress bar. I figured that I wouldn't need the loader just yet because this is the progress bar for the main movie and not for an external .swf...) with this code:
Code:
var kalarahProgress:mx.controls.ProgressBar;
kalarahProgress.mode = manual;
kalarahProgress.indeterminate = true;[code]....
Now when I test it in FlashMX 2K4 Pro using "Simulate Download", everything works fine EXCEPT: Theres this white box that shows up right where my progress bar is in the first frame. After the progress bar loads (itself) then, you actually see the "candycane" indeterminate load bar and then after my other frames in the movie loads, it goes into my second frame and everything is cool.How can I make that white box go away? I tried using actionscript that would make the progress bar invisible until after it finished loading and then go to visible, but when I tried that, the component never came back visible. I just need to make that white box go away, it's taking away from the "beauty" of everything else. Also, my load bar doesn't show any percentages. It just flashes "loading" until after the rest of the frames are loaded. How can I get it to show the percentage of whats loaded so far?To download a copy of my .fla, just click here.
why the preloader script below might not be working correctly in all browsers? It definitely loads the files properly, but the progress bar does not show in firefox. It just shows a blank screen until the files are 100% loaded, then the enter site logo appears.
I have tried the following things:
1. Using relative vs absolute file paths for the external swfs makes no difference to the behaviour.
2. Changed publish settings to export AS classes in other than the first frame - didn't have any anyway. No change.
3. Unchecked "export in first frame" for absolutely everything. Tried both checking and unchecking this for the actual loader_mc. No change.
I'd post my fla instead of code, but I'm using Flash 8 and can't save any earlier than MX2004 and people don't really seem to look at them that much when I post them. If anyone would like to see, I will upload.

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?
View 1 RepliesIn preloading a movie, I need to listen to the load progress of an external FLV that resides on the next frame-- the grandChild of a movieClip on the stage.This is the actionScript of the mentioned grandChild:

I have an SWF movie (1375 frames) and created a progress bar (248px wide) with a slider that moves according to the movie progress. I'm doing that next way:Calculating the distance for the slider to be moved each frame (248 / 1375) On each ENTER_FRAME moving the slider for the calculated distance The problem is - the movie ends far before the slider reaches the end of the progress bar.
I'm thinking that the distance (Step 1) is is somehow ends floored by Flash and the actual distance it moves the slider is smaller than required. That's why the movie ends, but the timeline control just passed the 2/3 of its way. My question is - is there any solution for the problem? Or any other way to go, if it's a wrong one?
I'm trying to set up a preload system that can load multiple XML files and manage an overall progress bar but got immediately screwed by ProgressEvents not bubbling. My basic code set up is: Document Class
XMLManager extends EventDispatcher
XMLloader extends EventDispatcher
So document class up an array of xml paths and passes that to the XMLManager, that then iterates through the array and creates a new XMLloader for each path and stores those XMLloaders in another array. The XMLloader goes off and creates an URLLoader that loads the XML. It has listeners for Event.Complete, IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR and ProgressEvent.PROGRESS which is fine.
I'm getting the correct progress data in my progress handler but what I want to do is broadcast that progress data straight back up to the Document Class which I had thought would be where dispatchEvent would come in by doing something like this in the XMLloader class:
