Adding a download progress bar to a flash output

I have the CS4 production premium package. I made a flash based web page to function like my DVD project by "building" the project in Encore which creates the page along with the referenced flash video files without having to know action script. I was wondering if there is an easy way to include a download progress bar in the flash output? If it is not possible to add a download progress bar directly by changing some option before I "build"/export the project from Encore, is there a snippet of code I could insert in one of the files after it has been created so a progress bar is added to the video? Here is a link to the page I created. If you click the "TQ4" button you will notice that there is no download progress bar that is visible when the controls are showing.

There's no easy way, no.
It may be possible to do this in Flash if you built your own custom player, but you'd essentially have to reverse engineer your Encore Flash output (no small task).
If you have access to a Flash Media Server, you might want to consider the streaming output option, which avoids downloading issues entirely.

Is there a download progress bar?

Is there a download progress bar?

Usually on Launchpad. Sometimes on the Launchpad icon in the Dock. Sometimes on the Purchases pane in the MAS. Sometimes on the Updates pane in the MAS.

I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried Tools -- Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3 years without difficulty

I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with
Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried
Tools --> Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3+
years without difficulty; I have lots of ram, hard drive and speed.
Thanks for your input

One step listed in the link to "helpful" info, was (when Iooked 30 seconds ago), to search for and download the newest version of iTunes. I'm running iTunes on Win 7 machine and was prompted to update today, 10.22.2014, and did so without a problem. Having said that, however, it looks as though the latest iTunes (12.0.1.26) is finally doing what the last version refused to do, which is to actually fully populate all my playlists on my 6, but there is a hitch: 12.0.1.26 will NOT allow you to show the sidebar unless you click on "playlists," that is, you cannot keep it open all the time.
And, when plugging the 6 into the computer, the phone icon shows up but clicking on it does nada. What does work, for some strange reason, is clicking on the tiny icon (just under the "Store" menu link at top screen) which looks much like a tiny barrel, someone's idea of external drives, I suppose. The phone then comes up, with the list of stuff on the phone just under it where the sidebar used to be. Sync is now restricted to the lower right of the screen.
Apparently, you will also need to update your iPhone's software as well; some friends with the 4 and 4s, however, had troubles with them after upgrading. The message from Silicon Valley (I can see Apple from my backyard, ha ha) is apparently, "keep upgrading," folks, get rid of those old phones.

What happend to the download progress bar and the secure site indicator (lock)?

I recently upgraded to Firefox ver.4. Immediately noticed that the green download progress bar no longer displays. Also when accessing a secure web site the lock icon previously displayed in the lower right of the window is no longer there. Any suggestions on how to get them back?

The status bar was removed in Firefox 4. You can use this two add-ons:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/download-statusbar/
The Lock icon has been changed. Please read this article:

You can use this add-on to get the classic icon back:

How to have a download progress bar on an applet?

I wonder if it is possible to have a download progress bar on an applet, which detects the download progress of JPG-pictures that needs to be loaded by the applet before it starts. If so, how can I implement this?

Use a JProgressBar to display the progress
For large jpegs use ?HttpURLConnection? to get the file size and file data.
Increment the progress bar according to file data downloaded / file size.
For multiple jpegs, you just do the calculation based on both file size, files downloaded.

How to create/set progress bar for loading flash intro

Hi,
I am having a falsh intro for my website.
But its taking time to download and play the intro when we try to access it.
I have seen many sites with progress bar indicating the status on the downloading of flash items.
Can anybody please tell me how should I go about this?

You can make a simple loader, it's a visual cue so your users wait for a moment.
Try this, get a GIF from one of these site: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en-us&q=loading+gif&btnG=Se arch
download it and name it as loader.gif
add it to you page, and add the following to the page using HTML Snippet:
<script type='text/javascript'>
var timerCount = 0;
var delayTimer = 5; // change this for the duration to show the loader.gif
var loaderName = 'loader.gif';
function stopLoader() {
_imgs = parent.document.getElementsByTagName('img');
for (ji = 0; ji< _imgs.length; ji++) {
if (_imgs[ji].src.indexOf(loaderName) != -1) {
loaderElement = _imgs[ji];
break;
if (timerCount == delayTimer) {
loaderElement.style.visibility = 'hidden';
clearInterval(_stopLoader);
timerCount++;
parent.iWLog(timerCount);
_stopLoader = setInterval('stopLoader()', 1000);
</script>

Captivate progress bar controlled by Flash Actionscript

Hi,
I am currently working on a project where I need to load multiple captivate files (topics) into a Flash interface to create an e-Learning module. I have greated a progress indicator within the Flash interface which indicates how far through the module you are. This is working correctly, however I would like to display more information.
Currently it only moves the progress indicator when a particular topic (captivate swf) has been viewed (if I have viewed 4 topics out of 10 it would show 40%). What I would like to do is also make the progress indicator move when the user moves to a new slide within the captivate movie (if I have viewed 4 out of 10 topics, and viewed 5 out of 10 slides of the current captivate movie it would show 45%).
As I mentioned the multiple captivate movies are being loaded into Flash, and that is where the progress indicator is currently sitting (controlled by Actionscript). Is there any way of Flash finding out when the user has navigated to a new slide within Captivate? I have noticed in the output that every time a new slide is viewed the following code is displayed to the output:
Branching::script:;;
deepak branching : scripteval:[object Object];
Does anyone know what this action/function that Captivate is calling is? Can I call a listener function testing for this action/function?
Kind regards,
Duncan

Hi Duncan,
The "deepack" output is a trace function the developer put inside of Captivate 4 for testing purposes I believe and doesn't serve any other purpose. There is a Captivate 4 system variable available from the Project>Actions>Variables menu that will track the current frame(slide) within Captivate. If you load the published captivate .swf file into Flash, you can access this variable by targeting the instance of the loaded .swf movie and then the name of the variable.

The download progress bar on the upper right side of the firefox window has turned grey and download is not progressing, help

I started downloading a file whose size was 4.75GB and the time remaining shown was 4 days. I left it overnight (computer was set to never sleep mode), and next day (today) morning the total file size shown in the download bar is 534MB. Yes, this doesnt sound sane, but I am telling what has happened.
Moreover the download stopped progressing and the seemed to resume once I had manually paused and resumed it.
Please suggest what is wrong and how to fix it

It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

Custom "Draggable" progress bar in Flash

I have created a custom skin for a Flash video that I wish to use. I currently have a shape tween within an MC that acts as the progress bar for the Flash video. Is there code that will allow me to click and drag that shape tween and control the movie? My movie is embedded within my flash not streamed. Is this possible, or if anyone knows of any good tutorials that would help me achieve this that would be great.
Cheers-
Graeme

you can use any scrollbar tutorial. instead of scrolling the _x or _y property of a movieclip, you'll be scrolling through the frame numbers that span the timeline that contains your video.
to look for a tutorial specific to your situation, try using google to search for "flash scrollbar timeline"

Download status bar

Dear All,
For Some reason, the download progress bar on the top right corner still has a stuck ISO file. I cannot delete it or cancel it. If i open the All downloads page, there is no such file.
Please advise how to remove it
regards
Teppei

Do you see this file in the History Manager (Library; History > Show All History)?
Try to delete the downloads.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
You can also try to clear all history from the domain where you have download this file.
You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the affected files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

Progress Bar/Fast Start

I exported a hyperlink only movie out of Keynote 3. I then inserted into my webpage. If a person clicks on the first hyperlink to go to the next slide it only goes a few frames and then freezes. There is not enough information buffered to move it along.
What I would like is to have some kind of download progress bar that shows up below the QuickTime so people know to wait. However, I don't want to lose the hyperlinks.
You can see it at: www.youbelong.net > journal information > instructions
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Granny, I love your apples.
You could try opening your movie in QuickTime Player (Pro) and then going to the Window menu, Show Movie Properties.
Click on the Video track to select it and then click on the "Other Settings" button in the gray area below. Check the boxes for "Preload this track" and "Cache (hint)". Repeat for the Sprite track (not sure that that's necessary though) and then save the movie...

Progress Bar component

I have used the UI progress bar component in Flash CS3 AS2.
For some reason the progress bar appears to work fine, when it gets
to 100% it loads the movie about 3/4 way down the timeline. Its
almost like the movie itself is playing behind the progress bar.
Help! Thanks!

No one?
