I am currently using to in a sound player in an on the homepage of an html/asp website. At the moment it plays some welcome audio when the visitor arrives on the site (index.asp), however it does get an little annoying when it plays everytime you go onto the homepage.
Is their any way of setting a session variable in actionscript that only plays the audio once when using the site?
I have a captivate generated SWF file which has a .FLV inside it.In flash on click of a button I unload the movie(SWF), the video goes away but the .FLV still plays the audio.
View 2 RepliesI'm a bit frustrated as I've created a Flash movie with an embedded video.The SWF file works fine when I play it as a stand alone file but when I use the file inside my website, the video portion does not play.I have placed the video file and the Flash file in the correct folder on my site.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash 8 site that plays a music clip throughout the site. I have a flv video on one of my site's pages and would like to know if there is a way to stop the site's music when the user clicks on the "Play" button of the video and to have the site music start again when the video either ends or the user clicks on stop.

The movie clip is removed but the audio continues to play. Why is this? What can I do to make sure the audio is removed also?
this one is really doing my head in and any advice (even vague thoughts) would be really great.I have an FLVPlayback component on the stage and I am loading 8 FLVs in to 8 separate video players within it. I then play the first one and when it ends I randomly select which to play next.Everything seems to work fine except that each time I run it one or two of the clips play back with only audio only and no video. It is not the same clip each time but whichever one it is will consistently fail to playback untill I re publish when it chooses a differrent clip to fail on.I am publishing for FP8 from CS4 on a Mac and it fails when I test movie as well as in FF and Safari.
If anyone has any ideas on this at all please shout them out or I am heading for the forrest never to return
I created an interactive exercise to teach music. After the correct answer is given, the user has the option to click on a button and hear a specific sound (a chord played on the piano). The sound button appears only after they give the correct answer, and they can click on it as many times as they want. There are a series of these exercises, each one on a different frame and each one with a different sound.The sound files are called in the button code.
Here's the problem. In some of the exercises, if I keep clicking on the sound button, it plays the correct sound about 20 times in a row but then it will suddenly play a different sound (a chord from one of the other exercises). Then it goes back to playing the correct sound.
I have an xml driven swf enbeded in xhtml page that plays fine when tested on local machine through dreamweaver CS4 but once uploaded to site, swf won't load. The music plays however so I know it's not about the linking.

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.
View 4 RepliesI have a few invisible buttons that link to URLs, and when clicked open the new URL in the same window and plays a sound.
Sadly, the URL loads before the sound is finished, making this pretty lame.
How do I ensure the full audio plays before the new URL loads?

View 6 RepliesIm making an animation to describe how a potential iphone app would work. Its going to be a 3 min clip not interactive at all, just plays right through showing how it would work. This is not for web. Just for presentation purposes.
By problem is this: Within the timeline, i need to embed a 20 sec clip (with audio) the plays automatically and when it ends the rest of the animation continues. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this without the audio and video being all messed or the video not exiting the screen once its finished. I hear all this talk of action script but have no clue where to start.
So I am relatively new to Flash and After Affects but I managed to make a nice video with Adobe After Effects that my friend wanted to put on his site. After I was done rendering it I used Adobe Media Encoder to make the .avi file into a .f4v file for flash. After opening that flash file with Flash i exported it out into a .swf file. When I opened the .swf it played perfectly, just the way it should. I edited my index.html with Dreamweaver and the coding and everything seemed fine. After previewing the index.html with my browser and Dreamweaver's Live View I was quite satisfied with my results. When I uploaded the files onto my site the flash did not play. It plays locally on my PC but not on the site. I later asked a few more experienced buddies what was wrong and they confirmed that they weren't able to play the file locally nor from the site. At first I thought I may have mixed up the links but they were fine. Here is the code I used for my index.html page.

Installed the new flash player and all of a sudden my flv audio no longer played in an existing media player built using the FLVPlayback component.
Finally figured out that if I change the FLVPlayback component parameter "maintainAspectRaion" from false to true, the audio will play.
Audio flvs that previously would play fine no longer play. I get "NetStream.Play.Failed".This occurs when progressively playing over HTTP, i.e. starting NetConnection.connect(null) and then NetStream.play("http://url_of_my_flv");Regular RTMP playback still works.So, I've seen two posts with similar issues in the last day or so:
View 1 Replieshow to get flv's to load up dynamically using xml - it all works well apart from this one problem that i have.
when the thumbnail for the flv is clicked the preloader appears and the flv starts to load - but for some reason the audio begins to play almost immediately - then when the flv actually loads then the audio plays again whilst the initial (unwanted) audio carries on playing!
this is the script for the netstream:

In my main swf file i load external swf files for each section.. In my video section i load a swf that includes a flv player that plays flv's with sound!
when i go back to menu...or go to another section....sound is still playing! why? I was thinking maybe i need to add a stop all sounds actionscript when going back to menu?
I have a variable (array) in my ActionScript 2 file, called webshop.Is this possible to store in a cookie (or PHP session) so if a user visit my shop and add items to the basket (the variable webshop) and leaves the page, but then returns later on it will create the variable with the users already stored items?I think it would be most intuitive if it only stores the variable for the browser session, so if you close the browser and open it again it will reset the variable. But if you just leave the page it should save it.

I am trying to display local flash swfs in the WebView. I have WebView set up and it will happily display local HTML files, but when I try to display Flash, the screen is blank. The flash file is running as I can hear the audio. I have noticed that most swf players from the android market suffer the same issue.
View 2 RepliesI have a swf that advances through a series of frames by pressing any key. I am trying to set up a timer so that on idle (no keypresses for X sec), it plays an audio clip.
My AS below works fine, but if you press keys very fast it seems to get out of sync and plays the audio almost randomly (at least faster than it should). Does anyone know what might be causing this? BTW, I have tried using a keylistener which seems to make it even worse by affecting the volume level randomly.
//ON THE INITIAL FRAME...
myInterval = setInterval(callback1, 20000);
function callback1()

guide me through the process of embedding an audio recording widget on my site, where people can record short (~5 secs) voice clips? I have absolutely no experience with Flash but since HTML5 is not there yet, it's necessary.
View 2 RepliesI'm currently trying to build my first flash site.I have just set up the buttons which get to each 'section' via frame labels and the AS3 gotoAndStop function.These work without error until my 'sections' contain movieclips that are referenced in my actionscript layer... Because they do not exist in 'all frames', whenever I click my buttons I get the error, "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."It took me a while to understand and track down why I was getting this. I removed the short bit of code in my actionscripts layer that referenced the movieclips in each section (I had some custom scrollbars set up) and it worked without error.
View 2 RepliesI have two classes. One creates a class and the second one plays audio related to the class. When the user clicks the right answer the quiz gets removed from the stage, but my audio keeps playing. I am wondering how I remove/kill the audio class/object at that point.
My class gets created like this:
private var quizAudio:CaseStudyQuizAudio;
and further down:
quizAudio = new CaseStudyQuizAudio(theAudio);
When I tried to kill it, I was think this would do, but to no luck so far:
quizAudio = null;
delete quizAudio;
How is this done?
The situation is I have a number of pages with a single movie clip on each, however once the movie is playing and you click the home or contact buttons for example, it will go to the correct page but the movies sound keep playing in the background.

The code on the sites main buttons is as follows, with tanmov being the movie whos sound I want to stop:

Looking for a component which can be embedded inside my site (PHP, ASP.NET...whatever) and give a support for video chat. I'm not a flex developer and would like to use a component. There are some/many video chats available, like flashcoms, red5chat...but all of those are heavy(monolit) components.
What I would like to have on my site is just a small video showing output from my camera (me) and another video showing the other party...but those videos should be split, not in the same flash component, but separate (two different EMBED tags on my page).
Are there any components available to do that (of course with support from appropriate media server)? Are there any good guides on how to develop such a component?
I am brand new to flash and AS3, and everything else code related. I've built a simple file with text and audio. The audio is an external file, and it plays with a mouse click. Everything tests fine in flash. I also placed the file in Dreamweaver and previewed in a browser - that's working. But... I've now uploaded the file to a live site. The text shows up but it doesn't play.
