We can fire "loadstart" normally and return 0 in the "loaded" attribute and "unknown" in the "total" attribute (however that should be encoded). (We have to be able to return "unknown" since there can be situations, e.g. live streams, where we'll never know the total size.) Rob -- "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
