ActionScript 2.0 :: If Statement Frame Takes No Time?
Jan 16, 2009
I have a flash file that consists of a number of loops that play in series that allows me to change the duration of each part of the movie dependent on what is in the loop. Therefore loop 1 plays x number of times before moving on the loop 2 that plays y number of times and so on. I had worked out all my timings so that each loop last half a second. The number of times each loop plays is controlled by an if statement on the last frame of each loop. So far so good. In this main movie have another movie clip that runs independently of these loops and I noticed that although it was the same length as the main movie taking the loops into account, it would drift out of sync as the main movie progressed and looked as if it was running slow. However by tracing frame numbers of the two movies, I noticed that each time the main movie reaches on of the if statement frames although it appears to increment by one frame the other movie doesn't. By commenting out all the if statement frames both movie run in sync.
Therefore I conclude that a frame that controls the playhead position in this method does not actually last a full frame in duration, but jumps immediately to the new frame as soon as the command is encountered. Can I assume that this is constant and that frames used to move the playhead occupy no time in terms of the main timeline? Is there any documentation on this?

For some reason connecting to Flash Media Server 3.5 takes around 40 seconds. The server is running on Windows Server 2008 (64-bit edition) on a virtual server located in a reliable hosting center and I'm connecting to it over the internet. The server is using built-in Windows Firewall with all the inbound TCP ports required by Flash Media Server opened (80, 1935 and 1111).
If I disable the server's firewall the connection time drops to 20 seconds, but it's still pretty damn long time just for establishing connection. We probably have some company firewall at this end (the client side), but other streaming media services works just fine over this connection.

Ok, so using Flash IDE, compiling takes a long time on my laptop because it all compiles at run time I guess? So it checks for errors, warnings, etc only after you test or compile it.In say, C# or Flashbuilder, everything is checked prior to you having to test or compile, so it is immediate.If I have a 20 megabyte FLA using the Flash IDE, it will take me approximately 20-25 seconds to merely test my program. Disabling the warnings in publish settings reduces this drastically (20-30%?) but still, so time consuming when I need to test every minute after changing some code.

I am loading some XML with HTTPService in Flex. It is taking longer than I would like to load. So I want to do some trouble shooting, but in order to tell what is making a difference I need to be able to time the requests and how long they are taking.
What is the best way to time an http service to see how long it took from HTTPService.send() to HTTPService.result

I'm trying to play some sounds in my flash project through action script. However for some reason in my code the call to Sound.play takes from 40ms to over 100ms in extreme cases, which is obviously more than enough to be very noticeable whenever a sound is played. This happens every time a sound is played, not just when that sound is first played, so I dont think its because the Sound object is still loading data or anything like that...
At the start I have this to load the sound:
class MyClass
{
[Embed(source='data/test_snd.mp3')] private var TestSound:Class;
private var testSound:Sound;//flash.media.Sound
[Code].....
This as far as I can tell is following the same process as other Flash programs I found, however none of them seem to have this problem. Is there something that I've missed that would cause the play() method to be so slow?

I just created a basic flash file to play a video on my web page and it's taking several minutes to load before it starts playback. I'm using progressive downlaod and the file is in *.mov format and is 84MB in size. At first that seemed large to me for web play back, but I thought it could handle it since I thought the way progressive download works is that it would start playing the first frame right away and progressively play other frames as they download. However, this seems to be downloading the whole file first (or a major part of it) before starting any playback at all.
Is there some kind of setting I'm missing or is my understanding of the download incorrect and the file size is too large? Some vitals: I'm using Flash Pro CS5 - To create my flash file, I used the standard import video wizard and selected the a file that is "on my computer" and "load external video with playback component" and then, I selected one of the standard skins.- To deploy the vidoe on my webiste I have three files:
1) swf file containing the FLV component
2) the swf file related to skin
3) the actual video (84MB, mov file) - Web page includes/embeds reference to swf file

I am trying to use a getTimer method that takes me to another frame (frame is "memory") after a certain amount of time after the movieclip has been loaded. The frame that I want it to go was given the name already. The timer itself does count when tested, but it just continues counting.

I am trying to use this if statement with a frame label instead of a frame number. I believe that _currentframe is looking for a number only. Is there a different command that looks at frame labels instead of frame numbers?

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

One of my objects is an orange ball so when I click on it the first time it will change to yellow color and I want it to remain yellow, and then when I click on it the second time it should change to green and remain green.And finally when I click on it the third time it should go back to its original color. So what I'm trying to say is that I can chooses which color ball I want. So do I use an if statement, that says if click one time then change to yellow? I mean is there such a thing as how many times you clicked, in mouse events?

I'm using Flash MX 2004 Actionscript.
I'm trying to get control of the time line using a conditional statement.
if (myVars.logged == "Logged") {
gotoAndStop(20);
}
I trace the myVars.logged variable and the trace tells me the value is Logged.
But the above statement won't go to frame 20.

How would you use an if statement to say if you're on a certain frame do this.
if(frame is # 2){
something = true
}

I'm having difficulty searching it since keyword frame brings up everything. I'm looking to reference the frame number in an if statement.
A small note I'm doing this cause the listeners I'm using to target key presses are interfering with each other when, even when the actionscript is on different frames.

I have a animation in my loader_mc that I want to start at one frame and play to it then stop then when you click on it again I want it to play from a certain point. But what is happening is that it will initially do everything it is supposed to but than mess up after the initial 2 clicks. Check out the onRelease event and you will see what I am currently trying to do. [URL]
