There used to be an old problem that might be the cause of your troubles. When a movie starts, sometimes the getBytesLoaded returns a value before getBytesTotal has finished. So your condition of bLoaded < tBytes is rendered inadequate. You could add "&& tBytes > 8" to make sure that totalBytes has actually loaded something...
