View 2 RepliesI was wondering if it is possible to change the frame rate per seceond (fps) of a movie clip while the movie is playing.
View 2 Repliesit possible to set the frame rate of an externally loaded movie to a different frame rate than the movie it is embedded within. I basically have a flash site that loads flash movies using loadMovie command, however, the frame is lost within these movies and simply adopts the main site frame rate.

I am building a small flash application. In my application I've inserted an fla video. the flv video's length when I open it in vlc player is 16 seconds (after I edit the speed of the video in an external program and then converted it back to fla). When I open it in flash cs 5, the video's length is back to 90 seconds. I guess it's got something to do with the frame rate of my flash project. I'd like to be able to change the frame rate of only the movie clip containing that video, and not of the entire stage. How is that possible?
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know how to trace out the frame rate that a swf is currently playing at?I've tried creating two date objects on adjacent frames, running the getTime() method on each and subtracting the difference but it seems to be the same regardless of what I set the movie's frame rate to in the property inspector...I am basically trying to monitor the performance of an animation at runtime and make adjustments on the fly based on how fast or slow the movie is playing.
View 4 RepliesI'm recording Webcam to FMS 3.5 but when I play the recorded video from FMS it's choppy. I have set the camera.fps to 30 but when I trace out the currentFPS for camera it's variable and usually falls between 20 and 30. However when I play the recorded video, netStream's currentFPS returns a lower value, something closer to 10. So my question is, 1) why currentFPS of netStream is not the same as Camera's? 2) What's the actual frame rate of the recorded video (not the netStream, but FLV's)?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to make a certain movie clip run at a faster frame rate than the main timeline. I've searched around a lot and only found ways to make it go at a slower frame rate (using the FPS Controller Component).
View 4 RepliesI understand that in order to make it consume less CPU cycles flash player forces the player to only execute at 2fps (or some other ridiculously low amount) when the swf is no longer in focus (or even if it's still "in focus" but not being rendered to the screen by virtue of being in a section of the browser window that's scrolled offscreen.) Is there any possible way to change this? I have a 3D engine that needs to keep the FR up.
View 7 RepliesHow to adjust the frame rate of an imported movie so that it would run in its intended fps rate, and not at the same rate as the presentation in which is importing it. (To be more specific, my main presentation runs at 1 fps, but the intro movie I want to add runs at 20 fps). Anyway, along my travels, someone pointed me towards the code at [URL]. I have since downloaded it and tried to get it to work. As it turns out, I know so little about flash and actionscript programming that I am unable to get it to work properly!
According to the comments in the code, it is executed by calling the fPlayControl() function, which has the following syntax:
_levelN.fPlayControl(_root.mcMovie,nFPS)
where (quoting now)
"'N' is the level number of where this swf is loaded and 'mcMovie' is a movie clip on the _root timeline of the movie that is calling this function and 'nFPS' is a number between 1 and 120."
I don't even know what levels are! Are they layers? Thus, the first layer is level 0? Then the next layer is level 1? Next, how do I give an imported movie a name so that I can call this function with the movie's name as parameter? I tried importing a movie into the library, and then giving it a name, but I still couldn't get the bloody thing to work.
My steps to attempt to get this to work: I opened the play_control.fla file, and chose "Import to library..." I then selected my little intro movie, and then I brought up the library, and renamed it. I also choose the "Export for ActionScript" option, which automatically highlighted one or two other options. Then I added this one line after all the other ActionScript code:
_level0.fPlayControl(_root.myintro,1);
Anyway, after doing that, nothing came up. Then I added another layer and inserted the intro movie from the library into it and played the movie again. This time the intro played, but it zoomed along (at I'm assuming 120 fps, which is what the speed is set to in the demonstration file I downloaded). Thus, it still wasn't working.
I'm trying to increase the speed of a single movieclip. The frame rate of my movie is 12, and I don't want to increase the frame rate of the entire movie just to speed up one movieclip.I've seen tutorials all over the web, and all the actionscript controlled speeds of movieclip tutorials are for more interactive animations, such as mouse movements and rollovers.I'm looking for something that simply plays a movieclip faster on the timeline and I'm sure there is a simple code for this.
View 2 RepliesI'm new to AS3 and desperately trying to figure out how to smoothly accelerate the frame rate of a movie clip (let's say from 0 to 24 over the course of a second or two) as a result of rolling over a button. I've been working on it for about a week just to get this far, and now I've hit a wall. Here's my code thus far:
stop();
var cf:int;
var fr:int = 1;[code]....
Basically, right now it starts at a very slow frame rate and stays there, never getting up to 24 fps. The only two objects in the scene are button1 and box1. The desired functionality is that when you hover over button1, the box1 movie clip starts playing slowly then accelerates up to 24 fps and continues playing at that rate until you roll out of button1.
I'm attempting to advance a movie by time not by frame rate so, on frame 34 I have
Code:
function playNext() {
gotoAndPlay("scene1");
clearInterval(timerInterval);
}
timerInterval = setInterval(playNext, 5000);
with a scene1 label at frame 45, but the movie does not stop at 34, it continues to frame 45 plays to 55, where their is a
Code:
stop()
action. At frame 55 it loops back to 45, playing once again to 55 then stops.
What Am I missing?
Just finally making the transition from AS2 to AS3.All i need to do at this point is make two buttons which will control the movie to goto next frame and previous frame. I have gotten how to make the buttons go to a specified frame number and also a button to go to a specified external url but no success in making a simple next/previous pair of buttons.
stop();

i have to set the stage frame rate according to the frame rate of the flv and I will have differnet flv with different frame rate so i have to get frame rate of FlV using action script ??
Is there any method available in Video Class of ActionScript??
I'm building an application in Actionscript using Flash assets, and my frame rate becomes very low (~7 fps) when I attempt to render 20+ assets on the screen, even though most of those assets are stopped movie clips. I've tried setting .cacheAsBitmap to true, which helps a bit, but not enough. What else can I do to get the frame rate up? I've noticed that some movie clips seem to impact it more than others, but I'm not sure how to alter them to make them easier to render.
View 2 RepliesI have a Flash game I made way back in 2008. It runs super fast these days. Way too fast in fact. I have it set to 60fps in FlashDevelop, but I think that is just limiting the amount of draw calls. I think my logic is executing well past 60 times a second these days. I haven't done ActionScript in a while, but I noticed that I am using an enterFrameHandler that executes my logic loop. It seems to have no constraint set on it. It just fires away as it is called I believe. Is there any way I can cap it at 30 or 60fps?
UPDATE:As some ActionScript knowledge is coming back to me I just thought of something. Isn't the enterFrameHandler bound by what the fps is set to in Flash or FlashDevelop under project properties?
Possible to change the frame rate of flash using Actionscript? If no what we can do with Tween.fps? is it work on tweened symbols or what?
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to set the frame rate for flash 8 transitions? So if I have transition:
TransitionManager.start(img1_mc, {type:Iris, direction:Transition.IN, duration:5, easing:Bounce.easeOut, startPoint:5, shape:Iris.CIRCLE});
how would I set desired frame rate?
Something like:
Tween.FPS = 30;
i am new here i am experiencing a huge problem with my flash movie. okk let me start:- I am making a website which has an intro. Intro Frame rate = 35fps My site frame rate = 20fps so when i load the intro swf with 35fps, its frame rate automatically changes to 20fps which is my site's swf frame rate. My intro loads in a movieclip named holder_mc i have masked my movieclip to avoid unwanted part of loaded intro.

View 7 RepliesHow to make a "frame rate visualizer" in flash 8. Because some of my animations have slow frame rates if I use some bitmap or png images, or some big vector objects.

View 4 RepliesAt the moment I am working on a project that uses the enterFrame event to update a game world at 30 FPS. I know that the movie frame rate I set in the Flash IDE is far from precise. However, I am using enterFrame because my assets (MovieClips and such) are animated within the Flash IDE and need to be synchronized with the frame rate.All actual programming is done with FlashDevelop, outside of the Flash IDE.I've heard that it is much better to make applications independent of the frame rate, presumably by using a Timer/getTimer() and updateAfterEvent() to draw.
All global ticks are handled through an interface I wrote that allows me to freely switch between frame tick implementations, so I can easily modify my code to accommodate whatever solutions are out there.Is there a way I can keep my animations in step with the global tick while removing dependency on the movie's frame rate?
Just like the subject states, I am indeed having frame rate problems importing video to Flash CS3. When I export a video from Premiere with the settings: 1280x720frame rate of 23.976using H264 or Animation (basically every codec produces the same results),"embed video on SWF and play in timeline" When I do this the file exports fine. Playing it in Quicktime works fine and the audio syncs up no problem. But when I import it into Flash using the same settings, for some reason the movie clip is now too fast in that the video does not match the audio and seems to be at more like 12 fps now (just a guestimate). The action of the video is over long before the audio even comes in.I have verified that the frame rate is correct in Flash so it's not that.
I've done this literally hundreds of times in the past and suddenly it does not work and I can not figure out why. I'm not even really using video, but actually artwork that I am putting together as an animatic for an animated piece so the video could not have been imported incorrectly or digitized wrong either.
I have developed a Flash website using the Flash Player 10 and its 3D capabilities. The website seems to be working great on my PC which is a high end computer but when I have tested it out on slower computers, the animations are really choppy and frame rate is dropped a lot.can you take a look at the website and suggest me ideas what could be the result of such frame rate dropping. The website doesn't use much animations in the background.
View 2 RepliesI got a MovieClip filled with a lot of others clips... When I change de X or Y value of this first MovieClip the frame rate slows down for during 1 frame. For exemple... I created a counter that returns around 30 mseconds every frame, but when I do this X or Y change the return is around 400 mseconds... When I try to fill the first MovieClip with less information it goes faster, about 100+-200 mseconds...
