I have a small preloading issue with flash 5. Again like my last question i appreciate that this is this.
I have a main movie which i am using to load seperate 'mp3 movies' into. So i have a main swf movie which in turn loads a specified swf movie with my music in it.
In order to be able to pause, play, stop and find how long the music has been playing for and how long is left i have had to embed the music on the timeline of a movie inside the 'music' swf.
I have the loading in fine using 'loadMovie("music.swf")' actionscript and it all works fine.
The bit that doesn't work is the preloading.
The music swf is about 5 mb, when i load it into the main movie the totalbytes of the movie come back as 4? so of course the preloader wont work.
Does anyone know of any way of getting around this?
I would award more points but i dont have any more to award
Cheers
