Ive used mediaplayback component on a webpage and it works fine except the playhead pointy thing doesnt move as the video plays. Isnt it supposed to do that ? It just stays at the start while the video is actually playing.If i drag the pointer to a different part of the streaming bar then it does what its supposed to do but that doesnt look right.
View 2 RepliesI have a CustomTextInput component based on TextInput (Spark) component. The instance of this class is placed on a popup window (TitleWindow). How can I capture the popup move (dragging the title) event inside CustomTextInput implementation?
MoveEvent.MOVE event of the CustomTextInput itself doesn't work. Of course, I can't access the parent popup window inside the component implementation, because it's a common component that can be used not only on the popup windows.
I'm building a custom Audio Player. The whole thing drives a MediaPlayback component. I have a scrubber set up that moves with the progress of the song. I want to be able to click and scrub with it though. Currently I have it set to set the playheadTime equal to the percent distance the slider is dragged to times the totalTime of the playback component. After the release of the slider I trace out the playheadTime and it seems to be fine, but I can't get it to resume playing at all. Here's the code in the controller:
var totalDistance = bar_mc._width - slider_mc._width;
var wasPlaying = false;
this.onEnterFrame = function(){

I'm trying to use the MediaPlayback component with an external .flv The video shows fine, but for some reason the progressbar isn't working.
View 1 RepliesWhenever an MP3 is initiated to stream (well, progressively download really) with the mediaPlayback component, it will contue to dl to the cache until done or the browser is refreshed. The occurs even when the component has been unloaded from an empty movieclip. This is an issue when folks browse alot of MP3s on the site, because even though it's inaudible, suddenly there are many files simultaneously dl'ing to their cache. Cant find a stop stream type of command in the media class, which I think is the only class for the media components. If I were doing real streaming with the Comm Server for example, I could use stopStream.
View 1 RepliesI am making a side scrolling game and I have all my pieces made, background, main character, enemies, wall, floor, etc. I have begun coding it with Action Script 3. I have it to where i have a main menu, and two buttons= one that goes to instructions and one that starts the game. I have my main character as a movie clip and inside the movie clip I have labels- stand, right walk, left walk, jump, duck, fire, and die.I coded it to where when I press my right arrow key it goes to and plays the right walk, down arrow key it plays the duck label.I have a trace on them and they are working. What Im trying to figure out how to do is 2 things. First, when my character gets to a certain spot on the screen, he stops walking and the screen moves, and second how to make the enemies move. Im scripting everything internally and not using any classes for this game.

View 1 RepliesI have a file set up with a movie clip moving from side to side by itself and when it reaches the end of the stage it goes back in the opposite direction.[code]I know want to control the movie clips movement with arrow keys, just left and right so that it would stop when it reaches the edge and will only let me move it the opposite direction.I guess I'm just trying to set up a sort of template.
View 9 RepliesI have the script so that you can controle a car with the arrow keys but for one of the misions on my gta2 style game i would like an enemy car to follow you. The car has to stay facing the right way acording to the way the street though, this is the only bit i cant think of i also need boundries.
View 3 Repliesso first off, this is AS 2.0. Second, i have a little character from a tutorial on how to move an object around with the arrow keys. The character faces on way on "up" another on "down" and so forth. There are 4 frames for it facing up, down, left, and right so that on the key presses it faces the proper direction and moves accordingly. I also want this little guy to move behind objects. When this happens, i want the object that the little guy is behind to be partially transparent so that you can still see him and he doesnt just vanish.

View 5 RepliesIn Fash CS3, suddenly, in certain files, I can't move an object left using arrow keys - but I can move the same object right, or if I hold down Shift + left arrow, it works correctly Also - I can move the object down with arrow keys, but not up Workaround - move an object on a different layer, then return to the problem object and it moves correctly. But this doesn't last long, the problem resurfaces.(I've tried rebooting; tried copying all the layers into a new file.
View 1 Repliesi want a my_mc to move when i press the < LEFT> arrow but also to fire and onEnterFrame event so it will move.. and also to delete the onEnterFrame when the key is not pressed so the onENterFrame is not going on in the background

View 5 RepliesI followed the tutorial and built a carousel and it works great. I linked up some xml and I've got pretty much just what I want. I understand the math _ sort of _ I never paid much attention in math class so the whole 3d thing is a train wreck for me.
What I really want to do is setup arrow keys to control which item is in front. I've tried hit tests to check the next/prev item and then stop there.. but the timing is sort of per project - meaning I need to set the rate or amount of items each time I want to change anything. I even tried setting intervals to set the speed to 0 after # milliseconds. Nothing works quite right.
I'm using the actionscript below to Move Object Using The Arrow Keys and it works fine but I want to modify it so that when I press the up key it goes to and play a movie clip. Basically it's a ball movie clip that responds to the arrow key but on the up key it plays a bouncing movieclip and everything remains aligned.
Here is the script-
var speed =5;
this.onEnterFrame =function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
circle._y -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
circle._y += speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
circle._x -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
circle._x += speed;
}};
I created an animated character as a movie clip and I want to be able to move it using the arrow keys. I created a new layer and have the character on that layer.

I'm trying to move a movie clip using the arrow keys. It's a very simple test animation. Basically I have a stick character with simple walking animation. It has 3 movement. 1 is a forward walk, 2 is a duck and 3 is a backwards walk. Now I can move the character but I cant keep the animation going. Is there something I'm missing??

This actionscript 2 for moving a movieclip on stage in actionscript 2 .I would like to know what is the syntax in actionscript 3 .
movieclip.onEnterFrame = function(){

}
}
cheers im new to actionscript 3 but nknow i need to make the change now.
you know how in some flash game the camera always follow the main character, and you move the character with arrow keys?

I'm trying to control (via the arrow keys) a simple box "movie" on the main stage using this code:
onClipEvent (keyDown) {
if (Key.getCode( ) == Key.LEFT) {
this._x = this._x - 3;
} else if (Key.getCode( ) == Key.RIGHT {
this._x = this._x + 3;
} else if (Key.getCode( ) == Key.UP) {
this._y = this._y - 3;
} else if (Key.getCode( ) == Key.DOWN) {
this._y = this._y + 3;

I keep getting this in the Output window when I test the movie.
Scene=Scene 1, Layer=box, Frame=1: Line 8: ')' expected
Because here in my game the main character is controlled through mouse and i want it to be controlled in left and right arrow keys. Here are the codes:

I've got arrow buttons and a movie clip on my stage. I have an event listener for each arrow button for a MOUSE_OVER event that calls a handler function in my movie clip. The handler functions just call prevFrame(); or nextFrame(); What I want to happen is that the movie clip continues to play forward or backward as long as the mouse is over the appropriate arrow button.
Stage Code:
leftArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, imgBar.goLeft);
rightArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, imgBar.goRight);
Movie Clip Code:
function goRight(event:MouseEvent):void{
this.nextFrame();
}
[code]....
I'm not sure if MOUSE_OVER is the correct way to do this if I want the function to continue as the mouse even only happens once.
