View 2 RepliesURL...Seems to me like a simple, long movieclip on a relatively intuitive but still pretty simple timeline.I've worked a little in flash before, made this site (oneandabit.co.uk, runs slow, bit blocky etc) but I'm looking to revamp it into something like the yellsite.Can anyone give me a clue as to what goes into this? Is it as simple as it seems? It needs to be seamless.Does anyone know of any nice (simple-esque) tutorials for me to download source files from, so I can figure it out?As usual I've tried kirupa etc but everything I've found is UBER heavy on ridiculous coding which puts me in a bit of a squeeze where it comes to customisation.

I have a slideshow posted at url....My client is saying it takes too long to load, and I am finding that it is loading all of the photos first before you can scroll through and view them. It's just not functioning properly.I wonder if someone could look at the actionscript and give me any suggestions? Maybe there's something else going on?I have attached the script from the original fla file.
View 6 RepliesWhenever I launch the Flash application or try to save or load a file, I get the "beach ball" for 30-60 seconds, sometimes a bit longer.I have plenty of disk space, plenty of memory.I'm on a 8 core Mac Pro with 10GB of memory, so I don't get it. It should load instantaneously just like Photoshop and In Design do.

View 1 RepliesI have made an application in flash, which is more like a photo/video gallery, in it, an event(birthdays parties) can be selected and a scroller appears which contains the thumbnails of all the pictures of that event, and one video appears in another panel,basically one video per event(birthdays and parties) is supported.My problem is that pictures are around 50, and there size can be around 2 MB, sometimes it happens that whole flash CS3 hangs, it is too difficlt to use the application this way...near impossible..these pics are loaded dynamically through xml file and i have used loadMovieClip.loadClip() method to load pics to movieclips and loadMovieClip.onLoadInit() method to resize them to make thumbnail and the main picture in the gallery
View 12 RepliesI'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?
View 2 RepliesI need a bit of help with an issue I am experiencing. I am trying to load external swfs on menu link clicks, inside my main movie. However, the external swfs are taking 8-10 secs gap in loading inside main swf.
The external swfs fetch data from a mysql database. My question is - Should I load the external swfs at the time of loading the main menu to override this problem? The concern here is that it might take longer for the main movie to load then.
I am loading some XML with HTTPService in Flex. It is taking longer than I would like to load. So I want to do some trouble shooting, but in order to tell what is making a difference I need to be able to time the requests and how long they are taking.

View 0 RepliesI have never worked on flash - I used a developer to code a flash based webcam recorder that runs on red5 as backend. He provided me with the swf file and the source like mxml file.This recorder has 3 images and the total size of swf file is 800KB.Now when I load it on my production server - this page takes sometimes upto 10 secs to load. I'm completely lost as to what the reason is and not sure where to start debugging.I'm not sure if the problem is in the flash code or is it that red5 is taking a long time to establish the connection.
View 1 RepliesSome background info: I'm trying to create a website to upload my photography portfolio to; the URL is as such [URL] So what I have done is create a parent page and created a variable that functions as a loader. Whenever a button is clicked an external swf file is loaded into that variable. And within those external swf files are additional buttons that will load an image into another loader.
Here's my question; for those of you who've tried the site will realise the images are taking an eternity to load, everything I learn about actionscript tells me this should not be the case. Each of the photographs are between 100 - 300kb in file size and really should not take more than a few seconds. This leads me to conclude theres something wrong with my code.
The code itself is nothing special, in fact it is the absolute most newbie way of creating a function eventlistener for every button. This is the code for the parent page;
var loader = new Loader();
var Xpos:Number = 440;
var Ypos:Number = 380;
[code]...
Here is where things got hectic for me for a while. I tried using the same type of code in the parent page for the external swf pages, for some reason it does not work, I had use the loader component (component's instance name is interfaceloader);
Product_A.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Produc tA);
function ProductA(event:MouseEvent):void {
interfaceloader.source = "Product_A.jpg";
}
Once again to summarise my issues; why are 100 - 300kb images taking so long to load even on a ADSL connection and is my code part of that problem?
I just created a basic flash file to play a video on my web page and it's taking several minutes to load before it starts playback. I'm using progressive downlaod and the file is in *.mov format and is 84MB in size. At first that seemed large to me for web play back, but I thought it could handle it since I thought the way progressive download works is that it would start playing the first frame right away and progressively play other frames as they download. However, this seems to be downloading the whole file first (or a major part of it) before starting any playback at all.
Is there some kind of setting I'm missing or is my understanding of the download incorrect and the file size is too large? Some vitals: I'm using Flash Pro CS5 - To create my flash file, I used the standard import video wizard and selected the a file that is "on my computer" and "load external video with playback component" and then, I selected one of the standard skins.- To deploy the vidoe on my webiste I have three files:
1) swf file containing the FLV component
2) the swf file related to skin
3) the actual video (84MB, mov file) - Web page includes/embeds reference to swf file
I'm pretty new/bad at actionscript (3) for web. I have a site up for a client/friend [URL], but it takes FOREVER to load. I'm under the impression that a good way to make the site load faster is to load in swf's externally. Right now, the site, in its entirety, is one big movieclip. I have large images (movieclips) for background images. If you look at the site and are kind enough to wait for it to load (aprox. 45 seconds or so) you will notice how the background image changes when you click to go to each section.
I am trying to find a way to load in the background as external .swf's to cut down on the initial load time. I'm also open to any other ideas. Below is the as3 code for my buttons/how they direct the site. I'm hoping to use a similar/generic style to load the background images. I'm hoping to load the movieclips underneath the rest of the site, and use the same naming scheme (e.g. homeBTN.swf) to keep it organized.

I make simple site but I have a little trouble with loading images. As you can see with new category there is new image. There is a problem, beacause only then img is loading, and I want to load all images when my site is loading. sample code how I operate with those img.

I can't seem to load a swf from another domain. I'm not doing this from another flash file or anything. Just a page on SiteB.com trying to load a swf to display on SiteA.com. That flash file on SiteA.com does load an xml file from SiteA.com though using the full path to the xml file (domain and all). This is my crossdomain.xml file that has been placed on the main level of the domain:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

View 5 Repliesis there any who know how to load the site by itself (the swf). I don't speak about loading an external source (jpg, mp3, xml, etc...) in AS2 it was with getBytesLoaded and getBytesTotal in AS3 it seems to be bytesTotal from URLLoader class but don t know how to use it to load the site by loading the site, I mean, I guess, loading the librairy of

I'm having trouble getting my swf to load its xml data on a site. It seems like the swf is properly embedded if only for the fact that I can click on the invisible link it has to another part of the site. However, the rest of the slideshow won't start online but does locally. I've checked to see if relative or absolute references are the problem and it doesn't seem to change anything.[URL]

View 2 Replieswinning designer, went about building a portfolio website. He left for Vermont and me hanging. When loaded, in browser, it will not start automatically and load the first page. When I load it up in Flash CS5.5, and preview it does not work at all, I think it is something to do with finding swf in the location. Oh, and one other thing the components that make up my portfolio works it just the main page. SO, the question is where did I do wrong? [URL] code for the main page

My problem is this: I built a Flash website, but it is painfully slow to load up (3-5 minutes) when I visit the site (via Firefox, etc). Once it does load up, everything is fine with navigation, etc. I'm having a hard time figuring out why its taking so long to load up on the web because, basically, I don't know how to trouble shoot.Details: the site is just a portfolio site with pictures and a few motion-things, no complicated animations. The swf file is about 9MB. I do have a flash preloader, but it doesn't show up until after the 3-5 minute "load-up" time. When I do the testing via Flash, its Ok and doesn't show the lag. But once I upload the website files and try to visit my website, the load time problem occurs.My thoughts: do I have to purge my Flash file/library of unused images before creating my swf file? Is there a problem with my html code in my index fil Just in case, here is the html code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

I want to load some text data from a third party web site (I guess I need to use URLLoader) but everything I'm reading says the Flash player security will prevent this because it's coming from a different domain.isn't there any way around this? How else could a Flash RSS reader work - you can't possibly get all web site sources to include a cross-domain policy file. I would have to believe there must be some way to load text from an arbitrary URL.
I am an Actionscript newbie - is this is possible,
Other than using small files, what are some techniques used to load a site/swf faster?
