Streaming stuck on frame 0

1

when trying to test my preloader using the streaming method, the progress bar does’nt show up,
its on frame one in my main time line, dropped in there as a movie,
so when I go to test the site it should work, but instead the streaming graph load’s all the frames while still on frame zero, then it plays the movie.

thanx 4 help.8]

If you have things in your library set with the linkage properties as “Export To Actionscript” it exports these to Frame 0 so they can load before they are needed.

This is what is causing your preloader to lag.

thanx 4 reply lostinbeta,

its not so much that it lag’s it just doesn’t get of frame zero,
on my site there’s nothing with action script linkage,

what the problem is ,

while trying to test the preloader via streaming, it loads the whole site on frame zero instead of going to frame 1 where the loader movie clip lies.

should I just have a swf before my main swf with just the preloader on it and then a gotoAndPlay reference, to goto the main swf.

or is having it on the first frame of the main swf ok.

thanx 4 info.

swift.

North Philly, ahhh.

It doesn’t lag, it just stays on Frame 0? There is no reason it should do that unless you have some gigantic .mp3 or image or something exporting there through “Export for Actionscript” in the linkage properties. But since you said you don’t, I can’t make sense of that since Frame 0 is the frame that is used for linkage settings.

And no, having your preloader on the first frame or two (depending on your code) of your .swf file is how you are supposed to create a preloader.

Wha…?
