Sound: getBytesLoaded() == getBytesTotal(), but it isn't true!

[tommysalo]

I'm trying to preload external mp3:s into flash (isStreamed set to false), but the getBytesLoaded() won't give me the correct values.

some times it works correct, but sometimes it says that the file is loaded although it isn't...

Example: snd.getBytesTotal() gives me 11034 bytes, but sometimes snd.getBytesLoaded() returns 11034 bytes as well, even though it's still loading (if I check snd.duration I'll get 0 until the sound is truly loaded).

It seems you'll get around the problem when setting isStreamed to true snd.loadSound("001.mp3", true), but that is not an option for me.

Have you guys heard about this before? The only link I found that mentioned it was this:

snd = new Sound();
snd.loadSound("theSong.mp3", true);
snd.stop();
playing = false;
onEnterFrame = function(){
    L = snd.getBytesLoaded()/1000;
    T = snd.getBytesTotal()/1000;
    P = Math.floor((L/T)*100);
    if(P==100 && !playing){
       snd.start();
       playing = true
    }
}

Simple and beautiful. Working like a charm. Why didn't I think of that myself?


Still a strange bug(?) though that I never heard of before.
