ActionScript 2.0 :: Background Flv Video On Star Trek Site?
May 30, 2009
This is other part to my earlier question that i posted before for those of you that came across it.Part 2: What i'm actually looking for is to do something similar to the Star Trek Movie website [URL]..for those unfamiliar. The bit that im looking for is a solution to achieve the full screen video background they have that simulates the user walking through the starship. Everytime you navigate to a different part of the website, this background video walks you through to another section of the ship.
I'm presuming its all flv, and i'm presuming its one big flv file divided into various "scenes", as the problem with having a seperate flv file for each "scene" is that it take a few seconds to load in between flv's and you get a blank white screen for a few moments (i've tried). Am i presuming the right method to go about achieving what they've done?
well in my fla i have a movieclip exported with class name Star and in my Star.as file i have this code:
package { public class Star { public function Star() { this.visible = false; } }
i tried putting movieclip on and off stage but didnt work all i want to do is control my class Star in my fla. Im very new to OOP and trying to get the gist of how to control objects like the way you could by instances like i used to :/
I am making a flash video of a star with different colors, but I want to change the stars colors randomly. I have got the code to change the star to random colors, but now I need to reset it to it's original color.
Does anyone know the default code?
this is the coding I'm using:
(Reset button/ Default codes to return my star to it's original state) go_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goGo ); function goGo (e:MouseEvent):void { star_mc.y = 200 ;
I want to embed some video into my HTML page. As background I want to use big picture. And above it I want to insert loop video with (i.e.) walking man.So, can I embed video (without flash and any player controls) in page?Can I decode video with transparent background? Is there any codecs which support transparent background (alpha-channel)?
Like I said in the title. I want to loop my background/a single element, while my people can click on the nav bar and look at stuff on the website.I attached what i was working on. The headphones will be fading in and out between a few different pairs. Mean while I need the nav bar fuctional and not changing besides when they click.
New to this forum, but was wondering if the moving background on this site [URL] is actionscript or just an animation. It looks very cool. I wanted to use the same effect for a school project I'm working on, I am using MX 2004.
how I can add a random background to my flash site. This script should generate a random background everytime someone views my site... Exactly like this site: [URL] Visit it 2-3 times to see how it does it.
I'm building a site that will change the background depending time of day. I do want to show the time in the top of my page. What are good codes for showing a time and date in Flash and what would I use to change background depending on if the time is past 7PM or before.
Example. If the time is before 7PM I want it to show a background with a clear blue sky. If not then the background will be a starry night. I'm using CS3.
I am trying to create a scrolling or parallex background for my site. This is a pretty popular effect and I cannot find code for it anywhere on the web. The ones I have seen is for AS2, have used the if statement. Also, do I have to create an invisible movieclip that goes over the whole stage so that AS know where x of mouse is?
I've created a banner ad (attached) for my company and intended to have it appear as a rectangle with rounded edges (transparent corners). It seems like I need to create a transparent border or mask to have my animated banner appear in this way.
Can I add a mask or a border to the whole thing just to make the rounded corners transparent and see the background colour of the site I'm putting it on?
Note: the corners are currently white. I can't change the colour to match the site background as 1. the banner will be shown in different places, and 2. the background is a gradient.
How do I get a sound to play throughout the entire flash site in the background? Go to [URL] and you will see what I mean. Its a great site by the way! In this "crucial limit" site, he has tunes playing in the background, and they keep playing despite how deep you navigate through the site, no matter what button you press, the song continues to play without stopping. [URL]
I see that the background music in my Flash site is located in a symbol called muz When I click the properties of this symbol, the sound file's location is listed as.flashsoundmuz.wav I couldn't find that sound sub-folder in the flash folder nor could I find the file. I tried doing a search to look for the muz.wav file in my computer but it could not be found. Does anyone know how I can find and save this file?
am not much a coder but am learning i just wana know how i can center my flash site/content/background on browser resize
i found a tutorials about that exactly the only problem was am using AS2 and the tutorials is for damn AS3 so please if you know one for AS2 then direct me or if you got som code u wana share dont hesitate 2 post it 4 me
I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I have assembled a preloader using the method from this site, everything seem to work except for one problem My site supposed to start from a black background and the image fading in. However once I placed the preloader the image dose not fade in but appears right away to the full strength after the preloader gone to 100% Looks like it jumps to a few frames after the first frame of the main swf file. Please take a look at [URL] If you reload again you will see how the image fade in.
I'd like to add a custom video to my site. This video is about 200px square and has semi-transparent controls on on the bottom third (play, pause, progress bar). See attached image. There is a sound track. It is short (45sec) and I want to host it on my site (not youtube). Attachments: custom_video_player.png (21.9 K)
My users will upload FLV movies and I don't want to hand-code SWF files -- is there a way to start with an FLV short movie(they're under a minute on average) -- and automatically package their uploaded FLV movies inside an SWF file?The site allows them to view the .SWF files using their already-existing Flash player.
I want to implement video chatting on my site. I understand that I need a table of users online with their ips and that there will be flash clients but I do not understand how the streams are handled. Do I need to have some sort of special stream process running somewhere? Can I just store the ips in a db and set them connections up in php like some sort of p2p service?
I have been using Flash with actionscript 2.0 and I barely understand that...(actionscript 2.0). Now I am building a site in 2.0, and I need to add a video to the home page.The only way I have found is in actionscript 3.0.I made a separate swv file for the video as per the instructions I found online.It works but my site will not open it, ...probably because the site is in 2.0.My question is this: a:is there code to play the hd video in my 2.0 site? or b: do I need to redesign the entire site in 3.0?
I want to create a site that has an embedded vimeo video, how can I do that in flash? (just to clarify- i do not have the source video file, its just a video from a free video hosting site that someone else posted).
I built a website using flash. I have two videos that play directly in flash CS5, i published the site and everything worked great including the videos. now the videos won't play. my website is [URL]
My Objective is to play a youtube video in a site which is build in Action Script 3.0. We have developed a site where the client side is completely flash and the back end is managed using php. what we need is to display the youtube vidoes in the client side flash page. Youtube videos can be displayed in html pages using the <object> tag. But in flash is it possible. note: You tube is providing an API, which will work only in sites developed in Action Script 2.0. But we need it to be played in Action Script 3.0. Is there really an API for Action Script 3.0 ?
We have tried to use the API which will work in Action Script 2.0 to communicate with the Action Script 3.0, but it didn't work. We tried the bridging it also did not work. We have also tried in google to find some and we got some links:
My problem is this. I want to embed an swf on my site which plays an FLV video. I do not wish to use a skin but want to create a simple roll over or mouse over which would start the video from the beginning. Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea how I would do this.
