My First Frame is empty but stills shows 128 kb

Hi,

Need some help with why the an empty frame still shows up not empty in the bandwidth profiler?

*I am using the media playback component and I did notice that it seems to be a cause of the problem.

I apologize if this is a redundancy. I read through senoculars tutorial on preloaders but I am still kinda lost.

Any help would be great

Yeah, I see that. Lets say I want to load an external swf…I have seen alot of tuts but they all include buttons.

But I am not sure how to create one without the button.

any ideas?

erm

MCcontainer.loadMovie(“that.swf”,1)

or

loadClip(“that.swf”,1")

I guess you would put that on frame 3… you would then have to wait for it to load

Here is a link to the doc
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001356.html

Basically you tell the class which frame you want to export.

this is my first problem resolved using live docs, guess if I knew how to ask the question I would have solved this sooner

Thanks for the input. I spent a bunch of time using AS and trying to load swfs, I think if I was not using a component it would have worked.
