Hi,

I have this MP3 player ; [**http://tiny.cc/rocks128**](http://tiny.cc/rocks128)  
I embed it with swfObject and the way I’m getting the MP3 is by mySound.load(“[http://www](http://www)…/rs/play\_song/”);

My problem is that I can’t access the mySound.bytesLoaded (for the buffer bar) when showing in a browser. If I load the SWF by itself (by double clicking it on my localdrive) the bytesLoaded/bytesTotal show just fine. If I load it in a HTML with IE7 or Google Chrome, bytesTotal are always zero and if you load it with Mozilla Firefox, bytesLoaded always == bytesTotal.

I’ve added a dynamic line on my player that refreshes by ENTER\_FRAME that shows you bytesLoaded / bytesTotal. The actual MP3 has 4.404Mb…

Let me know if you have any ideas about this player vs. browser issue.
