In the Flex framework a custom preloader can be used while the site is loading. In the Adobe docs it specifies that 'the progress bar [preloader] is displayed if less than half of the application is downloaded after 700 milliseconds of downloading.' However I ALWAYS want the preloader to appear instantly since I know that 95% of our us...
I'm doing a project where we play multiple videos back to back, and if we load them the normal way by providing a stream url, there is a load delay each time we start the next video. I've looked through Adobe's docs for both Flash and Flex, and I can't find a way to pre-load the videos. Embedding them is not workable in this applicatio...
I'm currently using jQuery, as well as swfObject to dynamically embed the swf movie into my web page. I currently having a problem on embeding immem's music player into my web page, as their embed code doesn't have any loading screen. So, when I replace the element using swfObject, that area will generally blank. In worst case, it means...
First off, I greatly appreciate any help, as always.... I have created a preloader from Jarrod's Advanced AS3 Preloader Tutorail. I searched elsewhere and this seemed like my best option as it was the only one I understood that did not require 2 SWF files. My code is really in 2 classes, my preloader class and my program class. My pro...
I once accidentally uploaded only part of my flash program to my website (i.e., it was truncated), and to my biggest surprise, the flash object was loaded successfully into the webpage, no errors were raised, no warnings were given at all. (This was a release version of the player, the debug version might have behaved differently, I don'...
The flash preloader emits FlexEvent.INIT_PROGRESS events to signal the progress of the flash application initialization. However, the number of times this event is dispatched depends on the application itself. I am trying to determine this number, but I couldn't find an answer in the Flex documentation, so right now I resort to experime...
Hello friends! I'm trying to create / use a pre-loader in my flex application. The preloader is a SWF file which has 100 frames (1 for every percent of the loader progress). Basically I am trying to Embed this SWF file in my application, display it on screen and change the frame number being displayed as the progress completes. The c...
Hiya, Is it possible to have sIFR "preload" or load before the rest of the page content? At present it is the last thing to load (due to the text position) and as it's quite an obvious part of the page I get a huge mash-up of text replacement all in a quick flurry which is not very appealing. It looks like the site is having an epilep...

I have a preloader in my flex application: public class Preloader extends DownloadProgressBar { private var _preloader:PreloaderAnimation; public function Preloader() { super(); _preloader = new PreloaderAnimation; addChild(_preloader); } public override function set preloader(preloader:S...
Is it possible to preload all page contents (like showing a loading bar / animated gif.. or loading text.. ) until the contents are fully loaded and then displayed to the user/visitor ? If this is possible, can you give me just directions or resources to follow to achieve this. Because I was able to find image preloaders easily, but I am...
A compulsion of LD_PRELOAD on HP platform only and not on other unix flavors (AIX,Linux, and Solaris). I built Perl Module XML::LibXML::Common on all of Unix flavors.I had to specifically do LD_PRELOAD for libcl.2 library on HP Platform only. While on other unix platforms nothing as such was required. Is this an OS behaviour or somethi...
Is there a way to hide the preloader. One idea I have is to make a new one that is empty, but surely there must exist an easier way to do it. It might sound like a dumb idea but in some situations it can be nice to just hide the preloader. Especially if it doesn't require a lot of work. ...
Hello, everyone! I've got a problem trying to apply a loading animation to my Flex application - a whole browser window occupant. I'm subclassing DownloadProgressBar class as described on Adobe's article about this. stageHeight and stageWidth, reported by base class are incorrect. It says 500x375 pixels in constructor and 0x0 elsewhere....
I want to incorporate a Flash Pre-loader in my application, but I am using only Flex SDK/AS3/Notepad to code this beast. I don't have access to the Flash IDE. There are many tutorials and helpfiles online for how to do it within CS4, but not in the code itself. Can anyone give me direction here? Most examples seem to pivot around placi...

Hi guys, I'm working on a flash site with lots of video-based section-to-section transitions. The transition videos themselves are only a few seconds long but are fairly weighty (~700kb) as they're very high-resolution; given the number of sections and section-to-section transition combinations (and therefore videos), preloading all of...

I don't want to know a way to preload images, I found much on the net, but I want to know how it works. How is javascript able to preload images? I mean, I tried a snippet from here, and even if it works, it doesn't seem to preload images. When I check firebug, I can see that the image is loaded twice, once while the preloading, another...
I have been dealing with this for a few months now. My flex apps are not showing preloaders on many users computers. I thought it was because I was using BrowserManager but I have made a few lately without browser manager. It works fine on my machine but then I walk over to the managers machine and load the page and the app is not there,...
