Actionscript 2.0 :: Loading - Flash Cant Get Their TotalBytes In Start?
Mar 12, 2009
I need to load all image thumbnails and some other things ( which are loaded externally with xml) at same time, while displaying the percentage of them. The problem i am having is that flash cant get their totalBytes in start, the total bytes of all of these items is rising while the loading is in progress.So the percentage always goes up and down. To understand better what i am meaning here is the link to the preview ( note that it might have bugs as its still not finished ) : http:[url].....You can see last textfield under fps metter is TotalBytes , and the one above total is loadedBytes.
I tried using GreenSock's PreloadAssetManager ( http:[url].... ) but it takes to much time to START loading, it stays at 0% for more than 5-10 seconds.So i cant use it.The only thing i can think about is putting their size to xml and then istead of using getBytesTotal, ill use the data that i load from xml.. ?

i am trying to get a methor to find the totalbytes of a number of external images with easy code.
[Code]....
But this is not working couse the INIT event is later dispatched than the progress Event somehow ><
how i can get to know the totalBytes of all images and at the same time make a progressbar for that?

I have made a preloader showing the progress of dynamically added images. The code works fine when i play the movie on local machine, but when i play the movie from the server bytesTotal is always 0. It even says 0 after the images has finished loading. what i'm doing is basically: createEmptyMovieClip() , i then use a movieClipLoader to load jpeg into that empty movieclip. the movieClipLoader has a listener attached and with the listener i use the function onLoadProgress() to display bytesLoaded and bytesTotal all of these things occur within one function.. bytesLoaded works fine both on local machine and from the server

I mean youtube or any other streaming video site, but I've seen it on Youtube. There are times that the loaded bar shows that more than enough video stream has been loaded so the player could play it but it suddenly pauses and shows the loading icon?

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?

I have a website that loads external .swf files using XML. People viewing my website would have to wait a while for my .swf's to load as some are 5mb plus. Is there a bit of script I can use to say start playback of my .swf when it has loaded 50% of the file?

I am a flash newbie, how can I get the flash to start playing before it is finished loading on a website? I embedded a FLV file into a flash and I'm going to export it as a SWF, I want it to start playing the movie before it's done loading so people don't think that it's not working.

I try to execute a code on my Stage, the problem is when I declare my own class on which they load the file (xml) the code start in the background.I tried to add a listener in the custom class for Event.COMPLETE but it doesn't work because it only affect the custom class, not the whole movie.I tried something like this:
Code:
var xmlLoad: XMLLoadData = new XMLLoadData("navigation.xml");
var menuBox:MenuBox = new MenuBox();

I've got a configuration xml file that I need to parse for values before a flex application loads. I've created a static class that allows for the values in the xml config file to be retrieved. I'm initializing this class when the application first loads but as the xml file is loaded with a Loader class that loads a synchronously the class is being asked for values before the xml file is actually loaded - so it is throwing a error. Is there a way to load this xml file synchronously. We cannot embed the file as a class variable as we need to be able to change the values remotely.

I am making a website and am having a very hard time with the actionscripting and external loading involved. I have managed to auto load the background externally but the problem is that once the bgload movie(which is loading externally in main.swf) is loaded, it goes back to start. make the "bgload" movie stop right there after its played once....

myMCL.loadClip("filename.swf", mcholder); //mcholder is the movie clip holder placed on stage manually

Frame 1 AS:
bytestotal = getBytesTotal();
ON A MOVIE CLIP:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_root.bytesloaded = _root.getBytesLoaded();[code].....

I am working on a tabular file that when you click on one of the tabs (there is 7) you view the content of that layer.
The code I am using works fine:
on (release) {
land._visible = true;
Tab1._visible = false;
[Code]....
but when you view the "land" layer, go back to another tab and go back to the "land" layer it doesn't reload and start at frame 1 but the last frame you were at.
I desperately need it to "reload" when you release on the action above and to GoToAndPlay frame 1 but whatever code I try it won't do it.

i am making a quiz. My problem is that once the user completes the quiz and wants to start again the quiz is already on the last question. How do i make it so that once the user clicks start again the questions and answers arrays start from the beginning, sort of reset themselves.

I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

what I'm trying to do is make a preloader that will preload about 20 external SWF files before it lets you get to my main file. I want to do this because my main file needs the SWFs to be ready to go once its done loading. I have looked around and i found a few ways to do this with the "if (loadedBytes>=totalBytes)" and the code loops back till the files are done loading... this would be just what i need but i cant seem to get it to work. the file just seems to start loading my files but does not loop and just runs the time-line even once i state what frames i want it to loop.

I download Flash CS5 and I try to execute it without an error message coming in and basically the program does not start.The message goes as follows:
Flash.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point ?ik_treelsActive@CFlashIK@@QAE_NJ@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library FlashIK.dll.So then I tried to install the updates via the website and the AdobePatchInstaller.exe and I get this:
Some updates failed to install.
Update is not applicable.
So here I am unable to start Flash CS5. Anyone know a way to fix this issue?

I purchased the CS5.5 Production Premium Suite.Eveything works fine except Flash CS 5.5. The icon has a white circle with a line through it and if I try to start it it says:You can't open the application Adobe Flash CS5.5.app" because it's not supported on this type of Mac.I have a Core i7 iMac with 8gb ram and a Radeon 5750 with 1gb of vram running 10.6.8.Can that not be enough to run Flash?

I don't know what happened but a few days a go when I tried running flash professional it wont start.
It shows the "Loading screen" when it's about to open the main windows it hangs. It shows the main windows all white. And mouse cursor is "processing", when I try to close windows says the program it's not responding.
I tried Unnistalling the flash profesisonal and installing it again but no changes.

Last time I worked with flash was January 23, 2012. It was working fine, but this morning I tried running the program and it won't start. Same with encore, it just doesn't start. Is this due to a windows update? Does anybody know of a workaround to this problem?

I create a small animation with ActionScript (basically fadeIn/fadeOut at different interval of different images). When I view in FlashPlayer directly it work when I view in browsers (any) I need to "click" inside the application for the fadeIn to start.
In my application I use this : stage.addEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, launch);so I guessed it was caused because by defautl the application is not activated, my question is how can I make the animation start at loading without needing to click on it?

somehow I miraculously created a Flash movie and successfully uploaded it to a blog
here is the blog, the flash video is in the left column, top:
[URL]
you will see that the first frame of the movie is actually all white, with a logo/banner across the top
all I would like to do is skip over, or delete? those few frames in the beginning, and have the flash video display and start the movie from a different frame.
this is taking me DAYS to figure out....hours that I am not getting paid for....my client's video guy never returns her calls, and so I, the lowly graphics designer, am trying to figure this out.
SURELY there must be a simple way to tell the video:
"hey....skip over the first ____ frames, and start the video at frame 5______ (or whatever).
I'm in Flash CS3 and I know NOTHING about Flash and very very little about code
