VideoLoader progress not working

I've built a custom video player built on the use of VideoLoader. However, the loader progress isn't working. It appears to be working; the loader bar grows in width based on a LoaderEvent.PROGRESS dispatch. But when I test the actual network usage in Chrome (dev tools), it shows the video is loading long after the loader bar goes to 100%.

 

Any ideas?

Did you maybe have bufferMode set to true? Or maybe you were looking at the bufferProgress? It's tough to diagnose without having a simple FLA to publish on our end that clearly demonstrates the issue. If you still need help, please prepare a simple FLA and post it here (along with any necessary support files) and we'd be happy to take a peek.

I do have bufferMode set to true. Will the video start playing when it has enough in the buffer if I set that to false?

The bufferMode only affects how the "progress" is reported. So the behavior you described is perfectly normal (and by design). Your video can autoPlay regardless of how bufferMode is set.
