Oh, wow! Thank you very much for providing an update so quickly!
I'll try it out very soon.

I've prepared several test files.
In all cases, video starts to play as soon as enough data has been downloaded.

(1) http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/SA-D/test1...
autoLoad: true + whileloading

(2) http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/SA-D/test1...
autoLoad: true w/o whileloading

(3) http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/SA-D/test2...
autoLoad: true, stream: false + whileloading

(4) http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/SA-D/test2...
autoLoad: true, stream: false w/o whileloading

(5) http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/SA-D/test3...
autoLoad: true, stream: false, autoPlay: false, w/o whileloading

BTW, I'm using V2.95a.20090501.

"Load 100% and then play" isn't working for me!

I tried the suggestions I found here:

http://getsatisfaction.com/schillmani...

but had the following problems.

---------------------------------------------------------
autoLoad=true, autoPlay=false, stream=false
---------------------------------------------------------

In this case, loading starts upon creatVideo() (which is what I want), but the video starts playing before loading is complete.

Here's my code:

myVideo = soundManager.createVideo({
id:'video',
url:fn,
onfinish:NextItem,
stream: false,
whileloading:
function() {
writeMessage(this.sID+' loading, '+this.bytesLoaded+' of '+this.bytesTotal,regular);
},
onload:
function() {
ShowStartButton();
}
});


----------------------
stream=false only
----------------------

Loading doesn't start until play() is invoked. I want to "pre-load" the video.

Ah, nice workaround! Thank you so much! – afukada, on September 24, 2009 00:06

onfinish fires prematurely?

I have really enjoyed working with SoundManager2. I can't believe how well it works!

I'm using V2.95a.20090501. My current issue is fairly minor, but I thought it might be helpful to the developer. I use the following to set up a behavior after the video finishes playing.

myVideo = soundManager.createVideo({id:'video',url:fn, onfinish:startRecording});

And function startRecording starts audio recording thruough a mic. Interestingly, at the beginning of the audio recording, I'm getting the tail end of the audio from the video. So, I'm suspecting that onfinish fires a little prematurely, perhaps? Any workaround would be much appreciated. Thank you very much!

Thanks for your comment. If you come across something that might be related to this problem, let me know.

A comment on the question "initialization problem with IE" in Schillmania!:

Thanks so much for your reply. I played with flashLoadTimeout and found out that even 5000 didn't solve the problem. When I set it to 0 (=indefinite), the browser waited and waited... and nothing happened. My temporary fix is this:

soundManager.onerror = function() { alert("Load error. Click OK and reload (or refresh) the page."); }

It's not elegant at all, but at least, this method works consistently.

Despite this small issue, I love SoundManager2! It's really well designed and works well. Thank you so much for sharing it. – afukada, on June 26, 2009 17:32

initialization problem with IE

In IE 7 and IE8 (Compatibility mode), SM2 dones't want to initialize.

What's funny is that if you hit "refresh" (F5), everything starts to work.

Can anyone tell me why this happens?

Thank you!
