Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback progress event listener
Thank you so much for all your help, I got it working - ignoring the ready event, which doesn't seems to trigger before the full buffer time, I just use bytes loaded to tell it when to start: stop(); skipintro._visible = false; introflv._visible = false; var listenerObject:Object = new Object(); listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void { gotoAndPlay('main'); }; listenerObject.progress = function(eventObject:Object):Void { //getURL("javascript:alert('progress')"); var percent = introflv.bytesLoaded/introflv.bytesTotal; trace(percent); preloader.progressbar._xscale = percent * 100; if(percent >=1){ introflv._visible = true; preloader._visible = false; skipintro._visible = true; introflv.play(); } }; introflv.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject); introflv.addEventListener("progress", listenerObject); introflv.load("DRIVERSPLASHLg.flv"); On 6/19/06, Sarah Plowright <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I am testing locally, although I assumed that since you can test other progress loaders locally this would work - now that it's uploaded - the progress bar is sort of working (at least it's called more than once), but the ready event isn't triggering properly... it'll show the first frame of the video, but it won't play for 30 seconds or so.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback progress event listener
I am testing locally, although I assumed that since you can test other progress loaders locally this would work - now that it's uploaded - the progress bar is sort of working (at least it's called more than once), but the ready event isn't triggering properly... it'll show the first frame of the video, but it won't play for 30 seconds or so.

Since the video file is already on your machine, it loads instantly and the progress event will not fire once the video is loaded.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback progress event listener
I am really just starting to do video stuff, so i'm a little clueless.. I believe it's a progressive download. And the code doesn't seem to be being executed repeatedly, as the other flv events are behaving themselves. The FLVPlayback component is sitting on the timeline, and the actionscript is on the timeline as well, on the same frame# The full code I have is: stop(); skipintro._visible = false; introflv._visible = false; var listenerObject:Object = new Object(); listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void { gotoAndPlay('main'); }; listenerObject.ready = function(eventObject:Object):Void { introflv._visible = true; preloader._visible = false; skipintro._visible = true; introflv.play(); }; listenerObject.progress = function(eventObject:Object):Void { trace('progress'); var percent = introflv.bytesLoaded/introflv.bytesTotal; trace(percent); preloader.progressbar._xscale = percent * 100; }; introflv.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject); introflv.addEventListener("ready", listenerObject); introflv.addEventListener("progress", listenerObject); introflv.load("DRIVERSPLASHLg.flv"); The events ready and complete are behaving as expected, progress is the only one that's misbehaving. autoplay is set to false, buffer time is set to 20 sec. Is there anything else that could be affecting it? Thanks, Sarah On 6/19/06, Steve Krichten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Are you using streaming video or progressive download?

[Flashcoders] jerky tweens
Hi - I'm trying to tween a bunch of arrows using MM's tween class (like the many snow flake tutorials out there) This part is working fine. However, when I add another tween on top of the tweening arrows, the movement of the arrows becomes quite jerky, but will go back to normal briefly before the first other tween repeats. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to clean up my tweens? Would it be better if I wrote the tweens by hand?

[Flashcoders] flash player 8 video/audio synching issue?
Hello, I have a swf loading in and playing as video (not a flv, just a regular swf) that was published in flash 6 (thought it may have been published in flash 7, i have to check on that). we've recently upgraded to flash 8 at work and now when i look at the site, the video is slightly out of synch with its accompanying audio.. which is embedded in the swf file. it was a quicktime that was imported into a fla and then published as a swf. i haven't yet tried republishing the fla holding the video as a flash 8 swf, so that might just fix it, but has anyone else had this happen to them or have any advice? thanks! sarah ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
