# MovieClip._framesloaded

#### Availability

Flash Player 4.

#### Usage

    my_mc._framesloaded

#### Description

Property (read-only); the number of frames that have been loaded from a streaming movie. This property is useful for determining whether the contents of a specific frame, and all the frames before it, have loaded and are available locally in the browser. This property is useful for monitoring the download process of large movies. For example, you might want to display a message to users indicating that the movie is loading until a specified frame in the movie has finished loading.

#### Example

The following example uses the `_framesloaded` property to start a movie when all the frames are loaded. If all the frames aren't loaded, the `_xscale` property of the movie clip instance `loader` is increased proportionally to create a progress bar.

    if (_framesloaded >= _totalframes) {
    	gotoAndPlay ("Scene 1", "start");
    } else {
    	_root.loader._xscale = (_framesloaded/_totalframes)*100;
    }
