ActionScript 2.0 :: Play And Pause Main Movie
Oct 7, 2009
I have created a main movie that includes 5 different movie scenes. Each scene is sequential in order 1-5 on the main timeline. I am trying to add two buttons, Pause and Play. I have added them to the main movie timeline but the have no effect on the 5 scenes.I moved the buttons into each scene and the buttons do work, however, it starts to play again if I wait long enough (seems like once the player reaches a new scene it starts the new scene).[code]

I have been trying to create a play/pause button for the main timeline in my flash movie. Created a movie clip with 1st frame - a pause graphic, then on 2nd frame - play graphic, labelled the frames 'pause' and 'play' consecutively and put a stop action on the first frame of the movieclip. Then put the following code in the actions layer of the main timeline (and gave instance name of 'ppBtn' to the movieclip):
var pp:Boolean = true;
function ppState(event:MouseEvent) {
if(pp) {
stop();
event.target.gotoAndStop('pause');
[Code] ....
It works in stopping and starting the movie but the actual movieclip doesn't toggle between the pause and the play graphics (just stays on the 'pause' state - 1st frame).

I have a series of movies I'm creating that have streaming audio with animation synced to the audio. I was wondering if there is a component out there, or an FLA, that is a scrubber control bar like the one you see in Articulate Flash presentations, or video.I need it to control the main timeline.I have searched google for a while now and I can't seem to find one.

I want to know if there is a command or actionscript that will allow you to pause the movie automatically for like 30 seconds and then continue the movie after 30 seconds have passed, instead of adding alot of frames for about that add up to 30 secs. Just like the goto and play command.

I have created a flah player with no controls which loads an ecternal flash video. What the client wants is to be able to pause and play the movie by clicking on it. I have an FLVPlayback component with the name MyVideo. All the actionscript I have at the moment is the following
myVideo.contentPath = file;
myVideo.autoRewind = auto;
File is a variable passed by SWFObject, this is the filename of the external Flash Video. This is so they can use the player with an video. Auto is a parameter passed by SWFObject so they can set whether the movie auto rewinds or not.

I have a slideshow done in Flash. I have a main movie that has a slide on each frame of the movie, with navigation buttons. On each frame, I have AS2 that loads a different SWF per frame. The AS I'm using is:
loadMovie("Data/2.swf", "container");
stop();
The number "2" goes up/down based on the slide. I want a hard-wired number versus the frame number because my client is deleting/adding slides and it's easier to keep track of it hard-wired.
Right now, each slide I'm loading has its own play/pause toggle button that is this AS2:
on(release){
play();
}
So what I'd like to do is put the play/pause toggle in the main SWF (and put a graphic footer under all the buttons). So how do I tell the play/pause buttons to play/pause the MC that is containing the slide SWFs?

I've created some scrolling images and want to add a play and pause button to it. I want it playing when the site loads up but I can't get it to stop. I've used the stop(); AS but it won't work. I think it's because I haven't made it using tweening etc as the scrolling is purely AS based.
The FLA file is here could someone take a look please and tell me what AS I would need to add to my buttons so it will stop and play. I haven't created the buttons but I will have one for play and one for pause.

I'm trying to pause a movie using a stop action. I'm using a button to do this. This is in the actionscripting attached to the button.
on (press) {
stop();
}
The button is in the main movie so I don't get why it's not working. I'm also trying to add a button next to it that would play the movie, after pausing it.

This is the set up so far. Loader1, is playing till home.swf is loaded. I am using the loadClip function for it. onLoadProgress plays the first bit of Loader1.
What I want to do is within onLoadInit() = function(_mc:MovieClip) {
root.ldr1.addEventListener("played", function() {_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);}); // add listener to Loader 1
_mc.stop();
[Code]....
The problem is that it is not playing the function. Also _mc.stop(); is not stopping the loaded file. It keeps playing, though _mc._alpha is working fine.
How can I make sure the event is being dispatched?? Home.swf ( the _mc being loaded), is within a separate movieclip, over the loader.

I'm making a project, So I've got several questions..
-How do I make the Movie play or pause by the click of a keyboard or a mouse button?
-How do I Open another SWF within the SWF (loadMovieNum doesn't work anymore )
And last question is How do I move the "video app" I actionscript'd and make it larger . Here's the code I used to put the "video app".
Code:
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
camera.setMode(550,400,60,true);
// setMode(videoWidth, videoHeight, video fps, favor area)
// Now attach the webcam stream to a video object.
var video:Video = new Video();
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);

I am going to be working on a site that has various mechanical products for sale. The customer wants me to make a model and movie of each product to show how the product works. Here is an example product:
Flash Clip The problem I am having is, he wants the movie to only play when a user puts their mouse over the video. I attempted doing this with a mp4 file and it worked using jQuery, but only when in Chrome. Here is that link:
MP4 Clip I want these demos to be viewable by the largest possible audience, so I was trying to stay away from Flash (also because I don't know Flash very well if at all). Does anyone know of a way to get this video to work in other browsers like in the second example? If not, how can I achieve that same idea using Flash?

I have a flash banner that includes a movie clip of the logo being animated. I want the logo animation to only run at the beginning of the main "movie". Currently I have to find the length of the entire movie (for ex. 500 frames) then put a key frame in at the 500th frame of the logo movie clip. I know there has to be a correct way to do this...Do I add a frame name at the end of the main timeline and somehow in AS in the logo movie clip say "when you reach X goToAndPlay(1);"?

I have my flash document set up in the following way: On the main timeline I have my buttons that I want to play movie clips embedded inside a movie clip on the main timeline.However, when I click each different button, the current movie clip stops playing and then the movie clip corresponding to the button plays.
I want them all to be able to play at once. So for example you push button 1 and the alien plays, but half way through you could click button 2 and the alien clip would keep playing, but also the helicopter clip would begin to play as well.Here is the code I have so far:
building_btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, alien);
building_btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, helicopter);
function helicopter(e:MouseEvent):void {[code]......

I have a timeline of 30 frames, each it's own mc (page01_mc, etc.). In each mc I show a picture or two and hear narration.I have a first, prev and next nav on the main timeline. I need to add a play/pause btn that will pause both pictures and sound. I assume I do that in each mc, but do not know where to find the code.Here is what is in each mc now:
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
mySound.load(new URLRequest("english/Intro01.mp3"));
mySound.play()

The template of my flash presentation is created via scenes, each scene has a UI loader which opens the external swf for that scene. The UI loader loads the external swfs manually through the components inspector.
One of the external swfs has video, which when exported on its own loads the videos fine, however when I play the main movie, the videos inside this swf do not load! I did change the name of my main file but cant see why this would change anything as the external swf still loads the videos when exported on its own!

I'm building a website, in which the 'Gallery Page' has a link to an external swf file, which is a scrolling clip of thumbnails.
What I want to do, is create each thumbnail into a button, which will then play a Movie Clip from a frame located in the Main swf file. (So basically, each thumbnail button is a small photo, will play that photo in a large scale as a movie)
eg.
thumbnail1_btn needs to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 1
thumbnail2_btn nends to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 2

I've created a movie clip symbol with it's own animation on its timeline. I've placed this symbol onto the first frame of the main timeline but when I test it, it doesn't play. There's no stop actions or anything on either timelines so I'm not sure why this is happening. I thought that the animation in a movie clip symbol will automatically play (i.e. if you test in a browser) once it's on the main timeline - is this right? Or am I doing something wrong. Maybe I need to tell it to play?

Is it possible to have an instance of a movie clip symbol which has its own timeline "play" when you scrub the main timeline?You can do this with graphic symbols, but so far I've had no luck doing this with movie clips.See, I have a movie clip -- several actually -- with their own timelines which I want to place in the main timeline.When I scrub the main timeline I'd like to see them scrub as well, instead of simply seeing the first frame of the movie clip.I basically have to work blind like this.
What I'm trying to do is basically have several "slides" which are animated and then have a stop();. They'll sit there for a second and then the entire animation, or slide (movie clip) will move off the stage. I can't do this now. When I scrub the main timeline I can't tell what's happening in the movie clip. I can't tell when I can slide it off the stage.I tried to get around this by using graphic symbols with their own timeline, but adding a stop(); doesn't work in them.

I've created two movie clips in Flash CS3, and I am now trying to understand how to get them to play in sequence on the main timeline.
I am noticing that when I change the Action Script in one movie clip, the Action Script in the other movie clip changes as well.

I need to play different movie clip at a given frame, let's say 100, in the main timeline. For example,
if(_root.x==1) play movieClip1;
else if(_root.x == 2) play movieClip2;
else if(_root.x == 3) play movieClip3;
How can I do it?

The movie clip is an actionscript movie which calls images from an external XML file and shows them as a slideshow. What i need to do is after the last image plays, stop the movie and move the main timeline to the next scene of the main movie. Everything logical in my brain is not working, and it may be that I have been staring at this project for too long but for the life of me i can't make this work.
