ActionScript 2.0 :: FLVPlayback .complete Sometimes Not Firing?
May 5, 2008
I've got a problem with the FLVPlayback Component: I'm using it to load multiple .flvs simultaneously.There are 3 Listeners listening:
vidListener.playheadUpdate,
vidListener.ready,
vidListener.complete
Now on some computers sometimes (But frequently enough, ) the complete event just does not fire. I really can't find a pattern or anything here. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.The videos were encoded using the Flash Video Encoder...

I'm sure some users on this forum will be aware that AddThis are dropping the Clearspring Launchpad, so I'm writing a new API to get ready for the changeover. Part of that is a base UI that will create buttons for social network sharing destinations. At the moment, AddThis contain all the icons in a single long strip that is 16x3520 pixels in size [URL]...
What I'm trying to do is load this into a utility class, but the Event.COMPLETE event never fires, and if the Loader class that loads it is added to the stage, the bitmap is never shown. I thought it was maybe a dimensions issue, but what is curious is that if I place the PNG on a Flash stage and export as a SWF, it loads no problem. If I dump it out as a JPEG, no problem. Its ONLY when the file is a PNG that there are problems trying to load it. I even tried dropping it out as a 24-bit PNG (the original is 8) but that had no effect.

I have a bit of a quandary. I need to call a function inside a MovieClip once a particular sound has finished playing. The sound is played via a sound channel in an external class which I have imported. Playback is working perfectly.Here is the relevent code from my external class, Sonus.
public var SFXPRChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel;
var SFXPRfishbeg:Sound = new sfxpr_fishbeg();
var SFXPRfishmid:Sound = new sfxpr_fishmid();[code]....
osr.Sonus.PlayPrompt(...) and gui.Wait(...)
both work perfectly, as I use them in other contexts in this part of the project without error.Basically, after the sound finishes playing, I need Wait(false); to be called, but the event listener does not appear to be "hearing" the SOUND_COMPLETE event. Did I make a mistake somewhere? For the record, due to my project structure, I cannot call the appropriate Wait(...) function from within Sonus.

I'm dynamically creating instances of a loader in a loop, adding a complete listener to it, and loading it. For some reason the complete function is not called. Is this syntax wrong?

This was working just fine, then flash crashed last night, and now the first event listener keeps firing over and over, endlessly... Even if I remove the listener right there in the function being called...
Edit: Argh, somehow, I must have added a second frame to the timeline (which I have hidden because I'm not using it) so flash was looping the 2 frames over and over...
Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML_complete)
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("filename.xml"))

enter code hereBeen really frustrating just trying to load a swf from a swfloader in Flex and then accessing it's content. I'm sure once I figure out how to do it once then it'll be fine, but I've gone thorugh a bunch of tutorials and somethings not right. Here's my flex code:and the as code:
public function initHeaderSwf():void
{
trace("INITIATIED");[code]........
Here's the problem: The swf loads, there is no problem there.i see it in my compiled swf. but the complete event doesn't fire. CreationComplete will fire, and then I try, after that, to make a event listener for loading the actual swf, that doesn't fire.I've tried it a variety of different ways with no luck.All I am trying to do is change a text field in the loaded swf.I imagine this might be a problem with the sequence of things loading or something like that, but not sure.

I've got a custom Thumbnail class that reads in an image path, a label, and an index. The class simply loads the image and and onComplete it pulls the bitmap out of loader.content, assigns it to a public variable and then dispatches an event saying its completed.
I use these thumbnails in a thumbnail gallery and I don't build the gallery in until all thumbnails are loaded and ready. The problem is the COMPLETE event doesn't always fire for every thumbnail, therefore not allowing the gallery to build.
I used a ProgressEvent.PROGRESS to make sure the files were being loaded, and found that when the loads failed the loader still loaded the totalBytes.
I've also tried Event.INIT and its the same issue.
INIT and COMPLETE just don't seem to be either caught or dispatched.
Code:
public class Thumbnail extends Sprite
{
/******************************************************************************************
* VARIABLES

I'm using this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE to call a function when the flashVars are available as many tutorials/examples suggest. Is it correct to use it in the root of the main swf? The event is often not firing in firefox.
Here's the test code. Am I doing something wrong?
Code:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
var flashVars=new Object();

I�m getting Error #2032 when my URLLoader complete event finishes firing. What I can�t figure out is why. The complete event fires successful (I ran a number of trace statements to make sure it made it all the way to the end of the method with no error) and I�m not getting any helpful output when I trap the IOError. Here is the error message:
[IOErrorEvent type=�ioError� bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text=�Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file:////Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/shanemcgarry/Documents/School/DGM 6122/Final Project/�]

I'm using
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
video.attachVideo(ns);
to play my FLVs.
I don't want play, pause, rewind buttons or anything, but what I do need, is to know when the video has reached it's end, so that I can 'gotoAndPlay(something else);'. I found FLVPlayback.complete, but this is just for components (?). is there an equivalent?

I am working with Flash CS 4 with AS 3.0. I use the following code to hook into Loading complete for mystage:this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderComplete);The code works properly in IE 8.0 (Windows 7) and Chrome. I have Flash Player 10 installed and the movie is targeted for Flash Player 9. The movies are showing a random behavior on FireFox 3.5.3.The website is under construction. The top bar contains 7 small & 1 big flash movie. View the page first in IE or Chrome. Then see it in FF. The labels from the flashvars are not being picked up properly. The load Complete function is not working properly.

I am wanting to play a number of movie clips and flash produced video clips. On the main timeline I have a frame for each clip I want to play. In that frame is a flash movie that contains the video that I have embedded onto the timeline for the movie. The filesize for this project is massive and I am struggling to work on the file. I want to be able to play the video files with the playback component in each of the frames where the video was.

I am loading in binary files with the url class which can be quite large 10mb + and it works fine on my server but another server I am testing on it can sometimes not work. Sometimes it will not load the file and other times it will only load about 20% and it throw a complete event??? Then of course other times it works fine. This server is https maybe that has something to do this it?

I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I really don't know what that refers too.

here's the code.
var zipTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, zipArray.length-1);
zipTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTick);
zipTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, onTimerComplete);
[code]....
Now, I can't see, for the life of me, why this isn't firing. It's almost exactly the code from Adobe's docs...zipArray.length is at least 32.

I'm working on a scene where the user can drag sugar, honey and syrup flavour to a cup of coffee and each time they collide, the coffee's happiness is increased by 1. I added a TweenLite so that sending any of the objects to their original positions is much more fluid. The problem is that the hitTestObject is now firing more than once (which makes sense and now happiness is increasing at more than one increment at a time) but how can I make it so happiness is increased just once?
Code:
public function hitsDecaf(e:Event):void{
if (myCounter.myHoney.hitTestObject(myCounter.decafSweetened)){
ifStartTimer = true;
stopDrag();
myCounter.steamHappy.gotoAndPlay(2);

I have the following:A document class, extending from a custom class, extending from MovieClip. In my document class, I assign a handler to the FullScreenEvent like so:
Code:
addEventListener(FullScreenEvent.FULL_SCREEN, function(e) { toggle_fullscreen(); });
Also, I've set up a SimpleButton to call that same function, toggle_fullscreen, when clicked.Here's the catch:When I click the button, my app goes fullscreen. When I press Esc, the app goes back to normal but the FullScreenEvent doesn't get fired,so I can't catch it to re-align the elements on my stage.I've also tried to add the event listener to the stage object of my document class, but that doesn't work either.

The problem is that I've done a lot of work in my game, and there's too much code bound to shift and control keys. For example you need to hold shift key to select multiple soldiers or control key to shoot or sometimes pause the game or even call a map, a lot of stuff in GUI depends on those keys as well. Both KEY_UP and KEY_DOWN are added to the stage object. But, time after time, there happens a very annoying thing, KEY_UP event just doesn't fire for shift or control (in most cases it does, but not always). That is, I press shift, start selecting soldiers, then release shift but Flash Player keeps thinking it's still pressed, so I can still select multiple soldiers, which is not good.
I found the exact same problem here: [URL]

I have some code where an event handler listening to Event.ID3 fires twice for an MP3 file. From searching the web, I found a few others asking a similar question, but I haven't seen any response.
Does anybody know what would cause the ID3 Event to fire twice for a single file? My only guess is that the MP3 file contains two versions of ID3 format.
The code looks like this:
Code:
var mySound:Sound;
function setup()
{

I am having a problem with my ProgressEvent.PROGRESS handler. It looks like this:
Code:
function handleProgress( event:ProgressEvent ):void {
var percent:Number = Math.round( event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal * 100 );
trace("Uploading %" + percent);
}
It just traces "Uploading %100" every time
I am using a big file so I know its taking several seconds between calling URLLoader.load and complete. There just doesn't seem to be a report in between 0-100..

I keep running into problems where I want to add an event listener onto a class instance RIGHT after it's instantiated, like this:
Code:
storiesXML = new XML(XMLdata);
storyBook = new vStories(XML(storiesXML.stories));
storyBook.addEventListener("storyBookLoaded", storyBookLoaded);
. . .
But by the time we arrive at the third line, the "storyBookLoaded" event has very often (inconsistent) already been dispatched from my class instance:
Code:
var evt:Event = new Event("storyBookLoaded", true, false);
dispatchEvent( evt );
...
(Even though quite a lot has happened in the class before that.) To be clear, I don't want to add storyBook as a display child, and even if I did, the addChild() method would have to be called after instantiation of storyBook, so we'd have the same problem. I know I could set a timer in the vStories class to artificially delay the dispatching of the event, but that seems really hack-ish, and would have a real compounding problem if I have to do it too often as everything builds up. How to make sure custom communication events happen after their listeners are set?

I have a little flash app that I have running constantly on my server (I made it an exe). It runs great for a few days, but then eventually it just stops.
Code:
trace("test1");
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(5000, 1);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, getData,false,0,true);
[Code].....
The code above should call the function getData once after 5 seconds have passed. This works 99.99% of the time, but for some reason (usually after a few days of it running) it doesn't call the getData function.
I have verified this through trace statements. When it eventually fails, it traces out test1, test2..... then nothing else. No test3.
I'm assuming I need to add an event listener for the timer object to check if it fails for whatever reason. How do I do this?

I am simply trying to link a button on my site to another webpage (an online store). The site is currently live at Higdon Florist (won't let me put the dot com address due to forum rules) The last 2 menu options (View Bouquets and Place Order) should link to (store dot higdon florist)
On PC, this works just fine every time.
However, I have reports that Mac users have trouble. The action never fires on the first 4 or 5 tries. Then, suddenly, it begins to work (and continues to work thereafter).

In my Flash project I have a movieclip that has 2 keyframes. Both frames contain 1 movieclip each.
frame 1 - Landing
frame 2 - Game
The flow of the application is simple:
User arrives on landing page (frame 1) User clicks "start game" button User is brought to the game page (frame 2) When the game is over, the user can press a "play again" button which brings them back to step 1
Both Landing and Game movieclips are linked to separate classes that define event listeners. The problem is that when I end up back at step 1 after playing the game, the Game event listeners fire twice for their respective event. And if I go through the process a third time, the event listeners fire three times for every event. This keeps happening, so if I loop through the application flow 7 times, the event listeners fire seven times. I don't understand why this is happening because on frame 1, the Game movieclip (and I would assume its related class instance) does not exist - but I'm clearly missing something here.
I've run into this problem in other projects too, and tried fixing it by first checking if the event listeners existed and only defining them if they didn't, but I ended up with unexpected results that didn't really solve the problem.

I'm new to ActionScript development and am using the FlashDevelop IDE. I've been playing around with some really simplistic things and have come across a problem I can't seem to solve.My application compiles and runs, and a function that watches click events fires perfectly and I can see the event in the console when I pass it to trace(), yet the same code watching for KeyboardEvent fails to fire at all.Here's my code:
package GameTesting
{
import flash.display.Bitmap;[code]............
The MouseEvent trace() fires every time as expected, but KeyboardEvent never fires, no matter what key I press.

I'm writing a SWF that I'd like to communicate with a Java process via Sockets. This is usually quite easy with standard Sockets, but for some reason the events described in the Socket documentation aren't firing when all signs say they should be.
On the Java side, I've set up a ServerSocket that's listening on port 8080. Using netcat I've confirmed it works as designed.[code]...
When I run the resulting SWF, all I get is "Called connect!" on the stage, and none of the events ever fire. Even more strangely, when I investigate the communication from the ServerSocket on the Java end, it receives and accepts a connection. When I close the SWF the code calling my Server completes as normal -- meaning it was hanging on a connection made with my SWF.
I'm left with a few questions...
With the exception of the event handlers, this is the end of control for my code (after the connection is established, we just wait for events and render them appropriately). Could the entire program be "terminating," and I'm just misunderstood about the Runtime model?Are there visibilty/naming requirements for the callbacks for them to be called? They're all public, but could it be that the Runtime isn't seeing them?Are there any gotchas with AS3 Socket programming? I kept thinking this was an issue of sandboxing, etc., but the SECURITY_ERROR didn't fire either.
