If your SWF file includes a version 2 component, use the version 2 components
DepthManager class instead of the
MovieClip.getNextHighestDepth() method, which is
used in this example.

public bytesLoaded : Number [read-only]
The number of bytes of data that have been loaded into the player. You can use this method in
conjunction with
NetStream.bytesTotal to estimate how close the buffer is to being full--
for example, to display feedback to a user who is waiting for data to be loaded into the buffer.

Example
The following example creates a progress bar using the Drawing API and the
bytesLoaded
and
bytesTotal properties that displays the loading progress of video1.flv into the video
object instance called
my_video. A text field called loaded_txt is dynamically created to
display information about the loading progress as well.
