Professional :: Stop Preloader Frames When Movie Already Loaded?
May 27, 2010
I have a CS5 FLA file with AS 3.0 with the following code for the preloader:
var pct_load:int = Math.round(framesLoaded/totalFrames*100);
if (pct_load == 100) {
play();
[Code]....
The preloader is in the first four frames -- it's just the background photo, a graphic logo, and the loading numeral text.
Everything runs great the first time it's loaded; then if you refresh the page, the graphics in the first four preloader frames flash on the screen before the movie plays.

I have an FLV video loaded as an "external video with play back component" in my Flash site. It works pretty well, even loads fast regardless its 15MB size. The video located on its labeled section which has an "X" button which closes this section and brings a user back to the page with all the video sections. However once the labeled section with the video is closed the sound is still playing.Does any one know how to make it stop if the section with the video has been exited?Then go to HOW TO section and click on the link "here" for "The Arrangement" show it will bring you to the section with the video loaded as an "external video with play back component" in my Flash site.

I have a .swf that loads into a movie clip in a Flash website. The .swf has all necessary stops to play once and stop once loaded. When tested outside of the movie clip, it does what it should, but once loaded, it loops forever and the speed is faster. How do I make this stop looping? (This only happenes to .swf that were made in CS4, doesn't happen with older .swfs that were made in Macromedia)

I am using the following actionscript 2.0 on the first frame of my flash movie to not play the .flv until its 50% loaded. This works great but the rest of the movie advances as that preloads. How do I stop the advance of the flash movie as well until the .flv loads 50%? [code]...

I am trying to make a preloaded that stops on frames depending on how much is loaded, I want it to stay on frame 1 if 24% or less of the movies is loaded and for every 25% I want it to it to move forward a frame, So far I have done thus,
var bytes = _root.getBytesTotal();
var bytes_loaded = _root.getBytesLoaded();
if (bytes / bytes_loaded >= .25) {
_root.gotoAndPlay(2);
} else {
_root.gottoAndStop(1);
}

I've set up my flash movie to play and stop at certain frames in the movie. I'd like to add a pause button to pause the movie anywhere in the timeline or animation and then resume from spot it's paused on. This is for a presentation.

I've been making the transition from AS2 to AS3 for the last week and am making progress. But I'm having a problem that hopefully someone can help me with. I'm using Flash CS5. I have a fairly simple Flash website I'm working on. I have sections on the timeline like Home, About, Photos, Media ... all set up using labels for each of those sections. Everything is working fine but when I go to my Media section where I have a video placed (using the flv component) I'm having a problem as follows:
The video auto plays fine when I go to the Media section but when I attempt to leave the section and go to another the sound of the video doesn't stop. It continues to play when I go to another section and if I go back to the section it starts again. The video is not there when I go to another section which is the part that's confusing me. In AS2 when I did this the video and the sound both stopped because you went to another section on the timeline. Why is the sound of the video not stopping in AS3?

The movie is 12 frames long ! I have an action placed in frame no. 11 which says :
if(_framesloaded = 12) {
gotoAndStop(12);
}else{
gotoAndPlay(10);
}
This means that if the movie is not loaded, it will loop between 10 and 11. I have a movie clip on frame no. 10 and frame 11 is empty, this means that, the movieclip (a square) should blink ! Also, the movie when its loaded stops at 11 rather than going to stop at frame no 12 as per the actionscript !

I want to create a preloader that plays a certain amount of frames as it loads the rest of the frames. So, I have labels on the frames basically and need a preloader to play the "loading" frames as it is loading the "content" frames. Does that make sense? I have no idea how to even start this one... p.s. I am using AS 2.0, but if it can be done in 3.0 easier, I can switch over its no biggie

I have a slide show that's about 800k and I'm trying to add a preloader. I tried 6 different preloaders today including a smart clip I downloaded from Macromedia. It seems that when I add a stop action after the preloader this hangs the entire movie. I've uploaded a working example of the slideshow without a preloader and a link to the fla of my NON-working attempt to apply the smart clip preloader here I think I'm just putting the stop action in the wrong place but I can't figure it out..

ive recently introduced myself to AS3, its starting to get a bit frustrating. it seems that when i put the preloader actions in the timeline, everything is fine, the stop(); commands work fine. BUT when it comes around to adding the navigation to the timeline as well (ive tried putting the code on a separate keyframe, ive tried various styles of code) the stop(); actions are completely ignored.

I have a main index SWF that preloads an external video SWF... when i test it offline it works fine..when i test it online it doesnt work fine... Weird observation: Online it worked when the external swf was only 10-20 kb But when i tried with bigger file size about 3.5 mb (which is the actual video i want to load), it doesnt work.... on the preloader it says NAN%... Now...could anybody try to explain to me what the hell is going on? I am attaching the Flash files in CS4 and CS3 format...

I built a pretty simple Flash movie for a client and put a preloader on frame 1. The preloader works fine then the movie plays. What is happening is if you go to another page on the site and then go back to the home page all you see is the preloader bar fully loaded but the movie doesn't play. You have to refresh the page for the swf to play again. It is doing it to me in Firefox but not IE 8 and it is doing it in IE8 on my clients computer...
Here is the code.
stop();
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onProgress);this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
function onProgress(e:ProgressEvent):void{ var loaded:Number = e.target.bytesLoaded; var total:Number = e.target.bytesTotal; var pct:Number = loaded/total; loader_mc.scaleX = pct; loaded_txt.text="Loading..." + (Math.round(pct * 100)) + "%";}function onComplete(e:Event):void { gotoAndPlay(2);}
Here is a screen cap of what is happening. After you go back to the homepage all you see is the rpeloader bar fully loaded without the load text.

Shouldn't the pre-loader skip and jump to the animation if the intended animation loads? Is this tutorial doing that?
I can't tell if that's happening. My animation is very light but it seems to be going through the entire preloader whether or not the animation is fully loaded or not.

I have a preloader that is about 150kB in size and it doesn't load completely until about half of my 6MB movie (yet to be optimized) loads. So by the time my preloader progress graphics come up, 50% of the whole 6MB movie is already loaded. Moreover, it's blank until 50% of the movie is loaded (the preloader just seems to wait until that point before it's graphics and actions begin)?
I have the pre-Loader in the first frame of the movie and the movie begins in the second frame. I tried using separate scenes (a preloader scene preceding a scene for the rest of the movie) and that exhibited identical behavior.
Question: Is there any way I can force my preloader to completely load and run--load progress graphics and all--before the rest of the movie starts loading?
(see code below just in case).
Also - I'm using greensock tweenlite in the preloader, would that make a difference?
PS: When I say movie, it's actually a website
PSS: I'm using MovieClip(root).loaderInfo.bytesLoaded and bytesTotal etc...
Code:
import com.greensock.*;
const ROTATION_INCREMENT1:Number = 0.25;
const ROTATION_INCREMENT2:Number = -.125;

New to the forums, but was hoping I could get a quick hand.I have a preloader on frame 1 of my fla, and everything else comes in frame 2. When I use the simulate download setting when testing, once loading hits about 50%, the preloader disappears and the movie continues to frame 2. This causes a problem because flash then pauses and waits for the rest of the content.Could this be because I have movies nested in other movies? It usually pauses right at the point I have the menu mc tweening onto the stage. Is there a way to force the enitre movie to load at the beginning?

I am trying to build a preloader that goes to whatever frame of a mc that the movie is loaded (well...that makes no sense). Lets say, the movie is 50% loaded, then the mc will goto and stop on frame 50.
Code:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(_root.getBytesTotal());
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
mc.gotoAndStop(50);
}
make it play if the 'loaded' is only half of the 'total'...

I'm having a problem with stopping loaded movies
- on Frame1 I have all Buttons and movie names.
- On Frame2, I've created a Movie Clip
- By clicking a link / Button on frame1, the action is to take to Frame 2 and load movie and play. It is working fine up to this part.
Then it is on infinity loop. It never stops. How to stop the movie and take the control back to Frame1 with all links.

I'm creating a movie with heavy animation and audio in Flash CS4. I have a preloader that I purchased from flash den.com and I believe it's pre set to begin the movie when the total file is done loading. But I want the movie to begin when half the total .swf file is loaded. Here is my code on frame 1
FRAME 1:
var amountLoaded:Number = _root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal();
preloader._width = amountLoaded * 250;
loadText.text = Math.round(amountLoaded * 100) + "%";

How can I make a preloader that shows percentage/bar for a movie loaded in with LoadMovie?
I've tried using a normal preloader (the one from Kirupa) in the "to load" movie, but it doesn't work.
Is there a way to have the preloader assess how big the movie to load is, how a bar etc. and have the movie hidden until 100% is loaded (as seen on the bar)?
