ActionScript 2.0 :: Stop Mp3 When Another Instance Begins

Nov 5, 2009

I bought an mp3 player that was supposed to prevent multiple instances of the player from playing at the same time. In other words, if I was playing an mp3 on one instance of the player and then pressed play on another instance, it would pause the original mp3. However, it is not functioning like this and the author of the flash player is not responding to my emails. I've included the code below:

magicmp3.fla:

Code:
if (songName == undefined) {
songName = "songs/VanessasDub.mp3";
}

Button That Begins An Animation Once Clicked?

Oct 3, 2009

I don't have much experience with buttons and barely any with action script.  I am trying to make a button that is a non-animated symbol on up, a glowing version of the symbol on over, and on down the symbol swaps to an animated symbol that moves across the screen.
 
But, on the down state, the symbol does not animate like it is supposed to.  When I hold the mouse button down, the glow goes away, but the symbol just does not animate as specified in the symbol that appears during the down state.
 
I tried experimenting with making the button move on the main timeline, adding a stop() command in one of the layers of the up-state symbol, and then adding a play() command to one of the layers of the down state symbol, but nothing seems to work.[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Detect When Motion Tween Ends Or Begins?

Nov 3, 2009

Project:
Reading text from XML document
Text scrolls up, pauses, then automatically scrolls up and off the screen
Text content changes to the next node.

Scene Level:
I have a movie clip named "symbol headline" (see attached screenshot)

Within the MovieClip:
I have 2 dynamic text boxes: headlineText and contentText (see attached screenshot)

ActionScript Code:
// Import flash libraries
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code]....

The Problem:
Everything works GREAT except there is a slight difference between the TIMER in the ActionScript and the frames in the GUI. That means that after 3 or 4 iterations, the text starts changing before the motion tween is done.

My Idea:
Instead of using a timer in my ActionScript, can I create and Event Listener that listens for when the movie clip starts to replay? If so, HOW ?

Actionscript 3.0 :: Main .swf Begins Playing Before Preloader Completes

Jul 9, 2009

I just followed Lee Brimelow's 'Preloading in Actionscript 3.0' tut - it was easy to follow and implement. However, when I upload my files to my webserver to test, the .swf that I'm loading begins to play before the preloader completes. Actually, to be precise, the main swf has an audio file in the background that begins before the preloader completes. The stage of the main swf doesn't appear until the preloader completes. Prior to this, I was using a 'scenes' method of preloading, that didn't have this problem, but I kept running into a 1009 error, so thought I'd try a different method...

Here is the actionscript for my preloader:

Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("CelebrateV4RPLY.swf"));

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop And Play Methods - Instance Name

Apr 30, 2009

I have recently adopted an FLV from someone else. It is structured "unconventionally" at best. For this reason (and because I am not well-versed in AS3), I haven't been able to get a pause/play button to function properly. About the file, The project is a 6-7 minute demo for a new product complete with voiceover. You have to drill in 3 movie clips deep before you can get to much of the animation. There are gotoAndPlay functions at the end of each 3rd-level movie clip that refer to a frame on the 2nd level.

On the 2nd-level frame, there is a stop function which allows the next movie clip to play. Each movie clip contains a sound layer for voice over. About the play/pause button. The instance name is pauseBtn. The button code below is on the 1st frame of the main timeline. There is a keyframe on the second frame for another bit of code. The button itself is a 2-frame MC that spans the entire main timeline. The event.target.gotoAndStop() lines are working properly to change the look of the button.

My button scriptstop();
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
var pp:Boolean = true;
function ppState(event:MouseEvent) {
if(pp) {
stop();
[Code] .....

What happens when I test the movieThe animation plays without problem as long as the button is not clicked. I haven't been able to see a pattern in the chaos that occurs when the button is clicked.
Sometimes nothing happens.
Sometimes it stops the sound only.
Sometimes it resets to the beginning of the movie.
Sometimes it starts play random parts on top of what was already playing.

This error appears in the output pane.
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop An Instance Of A Class From Doing Stuff?

Nov 11, 2010

I have a class that has a couple of events after each other:

It loads an image, loads another image, fades in a player, and plays a video.

Now when the user goes to somewhere else, this instance keeps on doing all it's stuff.

Actually I never had to figure this out, and for now I can just work around it, but I just want to know how to stop it from doing stuff when I don't need it anymore.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movieclip Within Button Begins It's Timeline From Start During Mouse Over

Nov 29, 2011

My animation contains a button which 'hovers' or 'lightly floats' on the stage. The object and motion tween creating the 'hover' is in a movieclip which I then applied to a button symbol. When I test my swf and scroll over the button, the motion tween within the button skips back to the beginning. Is there a way to get a smoother transition?

PS. I put the button into a movieclip with the a motion tween and it doesn't seem to work properly.

Flash :: Stop AWS Adobe Media Server Instance?

The only options in my AWS Mananagement Council are to reboot and termiante. If I understand this correctly, if I terminate, I lose all my setup instructions and would have to pay the $5 one-time fee once I restart. Is this correct?How can I setup my instance so I can stop it? I've looked at the support page and it says that I need to have my instance backed up with EBS rather than S3. These instructions are not too clear, because I thought a 8gb EBS is included when you initialize FMS. Here is the support page:[URL]..

ActionScript 2.0 :: Objects - XML - Creating A New Instance Of An Object That Uses An Identical Name To An Older Instance Delete The Previous Instance?

Mar 20, 2009

Does creating a new instance of an Object that uses an identical name to an older instance, delete the previous instance? Or should the original instance be deleted first? The code uses a ridiculous amount of XML vars. Isn't it less memory intensive to parse the XML and save the properties to an Object, and then delete the XML Object, rather than keep the XML Object around and reference it's child nodes directly? Is it better form to break up a huge XML file (>600lines/3200vars) into smaller chunks?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Use Local Instance Variables Vs Attach New Properties To The Instance Object?

Mar 14, 2006

I am wrapping my brain around OOP in AS2. I am making two posts on two different subjects. My question here is: when should I use local instance variables, and when should I attach new properties to the instance object? (Feel free to correct my terminology.) Let's say I have a class for a scrolling background, which scrolls when I mouse over its edge. I want to put these values somewhere:

1) How wide is the border in which a mouseOver makes it scroll? This is basically a semi-constant I set it up once and keep it the same, unless the user changes it in an options menu to make the border wider or narrower. Call this scrollBorderWidth.

2) How fast is the background scrolling now? I want to track this so I can smoothly change the scroll speed over several frames. This is often changed. Call this scrollSpeed.

It seems I have two ways I can store and access these values and darned if I know which is better practice. METHOD A: Make them local variables in the class, so the scrolling background instance has them as local vars. I set them up thusly:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Finding An Instance Name From Another Instance Name?

Jan 28, 2010

I have a bunch of text boxes which are acting as labels on a diagram.The idea is all the labels are jumbled up to start with, and the user has to drag the labels to the correct place.So far, I have the labels, and they are dragable, but I want to be able to lock the label onto a specific area (I've called them crashzones) so that when the user drags the label onto the correct area, the label snaps into place.The 'crashzones' instance names, are indentical to the label instance names, with the exception that the 'crashzones' instance names have the letter 'z' at the begining.

On the dragStart event, something (maybe a string) would hold the instance name of the current label and add the letter 'z' to the beggining, so something like ... crashzone = "z" + label1;As there is an instance with the name "zlabel1", when the dragstop event starts, it'll do a 'hittestobject' on the instance "zlabel1".

I'm not entirely sure how to go about this.I've tried creating a string to hold the 'crashzone' name, but the hittestobject event doesnt work with strings i.e: hitTestObject(stringname);I've also tried with Sprite, but as the sprite technically already exists and has a name, I can't give the sprite any properties.
