ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Not Playing Correct In Mac Browser?
Feb 9, 2010
I have this thumbnail photogallery(AS2)that is running fine on a pc, but when viewed in firefox or safari on a mac the thumbnails do not show up.here is a live link:http:[url]......at the bottom you should see the thumbnails, but maybe not if viewing on mac?you can download the fla from here http:[url]......
I'm pretty new to AS3 (building my first site) so I hope this isn't too much of a newbie question.
I've got two commands which each work on their own in my mp3 player
channel = snd.play(pausePosition); starts the song from wherever it's paused channel = snd.play(0, 1, sTransform); starts the song at the volume set by the volume knob.
How do I put both the pausePosition and sTransform bits on to the same snd.play command??

I need to play videos stored on a web server from a web browser.
I was thinking of using Flash to achieve this. I found this article [URL]
Is there a better approach? Also when the video is playing or is paused, I'd like to be able to read the current time of playback from the browser (I guess through Javascript). Would Javascript be able to retrieve this time from the flash player?
I need to play WAV, MP3, MP4 and SWF files using Flash Player plug-in in Internet Explorer, FireFox, Chrome and Safari. Please give some suggestions on this.Is there any way to play this formats using JavaScript and HTML??I tried with and tag also but, Chrome, Firefox and Safari is required Quick Time Player to play this formats. I need to use only Flash Player.
My site works perfectly when played locally, but now that it is on a test server my swf has disappeared. The swf is an empty shell in which an xml file is played. I have encountered this before and have fixed it, but I cannot find where my code is wrong this time.
I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?
Got a 31fps .swf that when I play it in Flash from Test Movie plays at the proper speed. However, when I test it in a browser, the .swf plays about twice as fast. The movie does load a H.264 .m4v video at frame one so I'm wondering if that has something to do with it. Does anyone know of a way I can force the .swf to play at 31 fps?
I have created a short (6 seconds) SWF movie with Adobe Flash Professional CS5 that I would ultimately like to show in the header of my siteWhen I double click the SWF file on my desktop it works just fine. When I upload it to my website (or any other SWF host for that matter) and click the absolute URL it does not play (in any browser).I suspect that the file isn't ready for web publishing. Essentially, during the creation of the SWF file, I did the following:Made a short movie in Adobe Premiere CS5 which I saved as f4vI used the Import Wizard in Adobe Flash CS5 to import the f4vExported the movie as SWFThis results in a stand-alone SWF which works fine when double-clicked on the desktop, but not in any browser once uploaded.Alternatively, instead of exporting I have tried to publish the file, which doesn't allow for the SWF file to play in a browser either
I have a problem with a swf file which will not play in web browser.It played fine until I updated my site.I tried typing the absolute path to the swf file in the browser address bar and found it straight away. When I clicked on it the screen stayed blank.I checked the path to the file and the flv file was relative to the document and not the site.
swf plays fine in flash player, flash, and locally on dreamweaver.I moved the swf up the file tree and changed the links accordingly but still would not play.I also tried saving it as a new swf from flash, but that doesn't play either.I added another swf to the containing folder and that played fine in the browser.When I open the fla file in flash it only shows a flv playback movie, not the elements, I think this is because it was created in after effects.Here is the link to the containing folder, the swf file is Home_page_movie_V2.swf

I have a small application to play a stream from an Internet radio broadcast. When I play the .swf locally it has no problem at all, but once I put the swf on the browser, nothing plays. I don't know if is a security issue. The path to the stream file is in another domain of the page I am mounting it, for example, I put my html file on: w w w . myradio.com/index.html and the swf is calling [URL]
What does this mean. I go to see certain movies on certain sites, like news sites and a window pops up showing this error. Both on Firefox and IE[code]...
I am loading an external SWF file into my main timeline. The external SWF file contains an FLV video. At a certain point in my main timeline, the SWF file loads and plays the video. Is there a way to say...
If the VIDEO (FLV) is done playing, gotoAndPlay(X)?
in other words, suppose I want to send data, like text, programmatically from a Windows app (such as a browser plugin) to a Flash app running in the browser. Well, conceptually, an example of this might be a Flash instant messenger with a textbox and button "Send"; so let's say I want to be able to programmatically paste the text and press Send or otherwise activate it. That's NOT what I am trying to do here in reality (i.e., no,I am not trying to spam other people's chat rooms or anything)but just an illustration of a similar situation.I can include in it whatever widget or hack that may be necessary.The reason why this problem is arising for me is that AFAIK the SDK that is providing me the data I want cannot be directly accessed from Flash, so I need a way to pipe the data from a regular app into Flash. can I have the Flash app interact with other apps through localhost IP? Or are there draconian restrictions on which server Flash in browser can and cannot interact?
I have a PHP mailer form on my site which needs to be published in action script2 to work, but I also have a script set up to open browser windows of a certain size & location which needs actionscript 1 to work? The PHP mailer form has a "Name" field, "Email" field & "Message" field, theses can all be reset with a button. The button clears off any text in the 3 boxes to wipe them clean. The script on the reset button is:
This works fine with section script 2 but not with as1. Does anyone know of a script that resets the .text field on as1 Alternatively is there any way of opening browser windows from a flash movie with browser win controls, eg. centre win, no scrollbars.
[URL].. Anyone know the AS to make it automatically check the size of the browser for the listeners_notice when you resize the browser it works perfectly...but not when it first loads up.
I got a 7" netbook running WIN CE 6.0 and can't find the correct Flash Player.Every time I seem to find one and intall I get a "Not a WIN CE" app Where can I get a player for this book?
On my website I go to "movie explorer" and go through all the ActionScript and on the bar tab it does open upa moving vertical options (it shows up when I have it in swf or preview it) but while I am in Flash CS4 I can't find it....there are extra componentsin separate files inside the folders (mx) and (tm) . I am trying to do is have certain tabs go directly to a different webpage (not all of them to the flash tabs as specified) as you will see by visiting my site: http:[url]....
This is weird because I cannot see how a browser can have any affect on a SWF file animation. This SWF contains masking of images. The SWF appears perfectly in Safari, and for some strange reason, one of the three masks is not applied when viewing the SWF in IE (as if the image is 'released').
The docs I can find for flash.globalization.DateTimeFormatter are here In those docs, the examples show the use of an important method called setDateTimeStyles(). However, there is no such documented method! Same goes for format().
I feel I'm missing something or am looking at dated/incomplete material (or am a complete idiot). Where is the correct/best documentation?
PS: I'm finding I have this general problem (missing/incomplete docs) quite frequently and this question could actually be "Where is the 'correct' flex/actionscript documentation? Or is it just bad?", but I'll be very specific (and non-inflammatory) to try and improve the odds of a clean answer...
I have an interactive assignment in which the students have to enter text entries into an input box. I have it working to where when the enter the correct answer it will tell them, or if it's wrong. I need to be able to tell them when they get to the last question, after they have gotten all of them correct, that they got all the questions correct. I know how to do this with a drag and drag interaction but not text entry. can someone point me in the right direction?
I have been given the task of updating my company's website, which is written in ASP and has a menu in Flash. I am not experienced in neither technology so maybe you can help me a little bit.We have a menu in flash and just received a new one from an artist. They are pretty similar but the new one brings some new buttons. So far what I did was simply change the .fla and .swf files from my web project to the new ones. The new menu is working, but the buttons and links are messed up. For example, our website main page is called Default.aspx. In the old menu, when you clicked in 'Home' it would take you to Default.aspx. In the new one though, it tries to take you to 'index.aspx', which doesn't exist. This makes me think that the mapping of the links in the menu is something that is part of the Flash code. Am I right about this?
Now, if I am right and I need to modify the flash files to create the correct links, how the heck do I do that? Notepad++ doesn't read the .fla well. What is the best free tool that will allow me to modify a file and compile it into a .swf? I know Adobe Flash would work, but we don't want to pay anything.
I'm bringing in production art into Flash, and it's shifting getting lighter. I've read all about the issue, how it's photoshop's color profiles, etc. Problem is, converting the images to working RGB isn't helping. I've tried converting them (originally they were in Adobe 1998 RGB) , creating a new document with the correct profile, but nothing works. I'm saving them out as PNG files. They look great in a browser even. Just washed out in Flash. Anything else I can try?
I'm heads down working with the FlashBuilder tool which is heavy AS3, and have used Flash CSx for years. My question: I'm assuming my AS3 skills that I develop with FlashBuilder will be directly applicable to Flash CSx, correct? I understand I'll need the context of applying my AS3 code to the Flash objects when working in Flash CSx but for the most part will my AS3 skills carry over from FlashBuilder to Flash CS4/5?
I'm working on writing a tweening class in as2 that has a callback variable and I can't seem to find a good way to get the scope without specifically passing in a scope variable as well. This tweening class needs to work in classes as well as on the timeline. Here's what my codes looks like right now.params.scope[ params.onComplete ]( params.onCompleteParams );params is an object passed into the class. This works but I don't want to have params.scope in there.
I am having a flash object integrated in my html page. It requires a version of 10 to run it. If the client is not having the flash player of 10 or above, the flash will not come and it will look a bit odd. In that case, I want to show an alternate image. What is the best way to do it?In fact I have the javascript code for it. But I dont know how to utilize it to get what I need.[code]
