This is just one method:
Place dynamic text field in frame, on main stage with 'txtPercentage'
written in 'var' field.
On main stage, first frame you place 2 movie clips. First one, given
instance name 'loader' and create a load bar animation 100 frames in
length. Second one, containing two frames, the first with the following
action script:

_root.txtPercentage = "status:" add
Math.round((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100) add "%";

tellTarget (_root.loader) {

gotoAndPlay(Math.round((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*10
0));
}

the second with the following code:

if (_root.getBytesLoaded() == _root.getBytesTotal()) {
tellTarget (_root) {
gotoAndPlay("main");
}
stop();
} else {
gotoAndPlay (1);

}

Finally, insert new layer in timeline on main stage, and insert key
frame on second frame and insert flag/frame label called 'main'

Insert rest of movie from second frame onwards.
Hope this answers your question.

Cheers

Stupid question you're gonna say but how do you make a movie fully load
before starting to play?
