I am trying to start a sound (intro.mp3) at a certain frame in an MC. The sound has been loaded from an external mp3 in a class already. All my other sounds work, but they are all triggered by events. Do i need to sync it to an event? Can i just use intro.start() on a specific frame in my mc? [code]

View 3 Repliesi have a flash clip that i am trying to imbed into a joomla website of mine, and the problem is that it doesn't auto-start.

View 1 RepliesI decompiled a good working .swf file to .fla file to edit some text in it, but the decompiled .fla when exported creates a squeak sound at the beginning of the flash intro. I am not able to remove it. Is there any way of getting rid of that squeak? Is there some error with the decompiling software itself (I am using SoThink SWF Decompiler v5), because the exported file creates a squeak even when nothing is edited! but the original flash intro swf file works good.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

View 3 RepliesBasically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code:

So I made a game in flash and sold it. I've been provided with an intro by the publisher that I need to insert at the beginning of my game, as it standard. I've done this before. The problem is that the intro .swf has a frame rate of 30 fps. My game is 12 fps. The animation is painfully slow if I just stick the movieclip in my game.
If I use loadMovie then the .swf will still play at my game's framerate.
Why isnt the on Release going to frame 1 of the scene intro? The button isn't working.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get the following movieclip smallbutton to link to frame 5 on movieclip cont.The way the timeline is built is as so:content_mc > cont > (more mcs) > smallbuttonThis seems to be an issue from every answer I've tried so far since the movieclip "cont" is not being called in the main timeline; first there's content_mc and then comes cont.How would I go about getting the movieclip "smallbutton" to link to the 5th frame of movieclip "cont"?This is for AS 2.0So far I'm at:on (release) { _root.gotoAndPlay("cont"); _root.smallbutton.gotoAndPlay(5);
View 7 RepliesI made a 2 frame flash. The first frame has a container that holds the movie clip, masks, audio & transitions for the intro. This frame I only want to play once. Then I want it to advance to frame 2 upon completion. Frame two is a leader/score board that will hold score tallies (it is linked to a TXT file that is linked to an ASP, which has not been completed yet), and therefore, it needs to loop into infinity. When I have the FLA open and I press CTL + Enter the intro plays then automatically advanced to the 2nd frame which loops to infinity.
(This is perfect -- this is how I want it to perform). When I go to the folder where the SWF and EXE are published, and I double clidk to open either one of them up, the intro keeps looping and never advances to the 2nd frame. I have to manually press next frame on the pull down menu -- and that is not feasible since this leaderboard will inevitably end up on a big monitor with an audience. Here is the link to the file: [URL].
I made 3 movies, one of a street, one of the street to the left and one of the right.What I actually want to do is, to play the video of the middle street, stop it after 4 to 5 seconds and put text on where you can see the street left and text on where you can see the street right.
So if you'd click on the text left, the movie needs to play of the left street, the right with the right.
To make motion stops where the text is coming I'll put a jpeg of the end of the movies, that I also use as a pause of the movie.
I know you can make links into html files, but I'd rather have 1 swf file so there is no loading between 2 html files.I tried to use actionscript (however i dont really know any commands ) on text, but it says that the item cannot have a script on it.
i have a problem about action script 3. i have a flv video and its totaltime is 6 seconds. i want to start it from 2. seconds with seekSeconds(). if i write bigger than 6 values in seekSeconds it will only play the video from head to end.Ä°f i write smaller than 6 ,it won't work.what can i write in seekSeconds() to start the video from 2 seconds?

I'm trying to get the cursor to start in a specific text field a la:
Code:
Selection.setFocus("inputTextInstance");
The problems:
When previewing just the swf: * The cursor doesn't blink, but the text field is selected.* After entering text, pressing backspace doesn't work, you need to press shift+backspace to delete text.
When previewing the swf embedded in html in a browser: * The cursor doesn't select the text field automatically - I need to click on the swf then hit tab, or select the text field directly.
So really, I'm looking to get it so that when the swf is loaded in html, it pops up with a blinking cursor in that text field, and I thought the setFocus would do that, but it's not working for me.
If I have an FLV that I've output as SWF with skin to have embedded into an HTML page, and now a 'skip intro' is needed - though I'd have to make note of the actual time or keyframe in which the intro completes...How is this possible? Clearly, a button would need to be added for that kind of interactivity?
View 3 Repliesi've imported a flv video file to Flash for the intro and i create skip button to go next frame..but when i press skip..it stop at next frame but the sound of intro still playing.

View 1 RepliesGood afternoon staff. I'm having a problem and I do not think the solution. I'm new using Flash. I have a video player AS3 and now we are implementing an HD button, the player always starts the video and 360P format and stream begins, if the user click on the HD I need to save the time of the video when it was clicked and then call another file. mp4 720P and start it at the same point that was recorded.

View 0 RepliesI have a movie clip that I imported into flash, used a skin and have a nice little player for this website intro. I want to proceed to the sites home page upon completion of the movie. Searched but the best I could come up with was;
player.addEventListener("complete",function (event:Object) { trace("doneVideo");new URLRequest("my link");});
I have the following as3 function below which converts normal html with links so that the links have 'event:' prepended so that I can catch them with a TextEvent listener.
protected function convertLinks(str:String):String
{
var p1:RegExp = /href|HREF="(.[^"]*)"/gs;
[Code]....
How can i modify my function so that links with 'event:' at the start are NOT matched and are left unchanged?
I'm relatively new to Flash and AS3. I've created a website thats a dynamic photo gallery. The site is self-contained (no scrolbars) and I want the frame work of the gallery to draw itself in as the page loads. The frame work is just simple lines and drawing objects on the maintimeline. Do i combine the lines (the "frame work") into a mc and then somehow use the deco tool? How can I acheive this in action script?
View 3 RepliesI'm having a problem looping through my timeline, I want to use JSFL to hit each keyframe, perform an action (in this case breakapart, but thats a different question on a different thread) and then go to the next keyframe.
[Code]...
JSFL has proven to be the utter bane of my existence. I'm still relatively new to AS in general and AS3 in specific, and this is my first foray into the world of JSFL. I need to learn how to create this tool for work, and I am the only person here with any experience in javascript, so I'm pretty much on my own.
So I made a ridiculously long Flash animation, but now I have to break down to certain parts. It's all made in one scene.
My question is can I start the playhead on a frame other than frame 1. Say frame 595, I've tried gotoAndPlay(595);, but to no avail. I've searched for a good 2 hours on this too. Is something so simple not possible in Flash?
if its possible, via AS3, to create a frame label in a movieclip on a specific frame.
Obviously I can do it by manually by setting up labels on the timeline within the target movieclip, but I would rather use an array so I can loop through it, creating a label name on a the specific frame each time?
so for example I would end up with:
myLabelOne on frame 10
myLabelTwo on frame 25
myLabelThree on frame 115
etc
I am loading a swf into an empty MC with this code:
on(release) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", _root.container);
}
what I want to do is also go to a specific frame or frame label in that loaded movie. I thought I could do it by adding something like this:
_root.containter.gotoAndPlay("frame");
Is there a way to get the frame label on a specific frame, without it being the current frame?
I've tried accessing it through:
this.scenes[0].labels but it doesn't allow me to check a specific point on the timeline.
I'm trying to make a game of sorts. I have a button that you need to click that is in the center of the screen. Upon clicking it, it goes to the next scene.What I need here is for the mouse cursor to start in the upper right-hand corner of the stage of the second scene whenever said button is clicked. Not just a movieclip of a cursor, but the actual mouse itself, since it needs to be able to click a button on the other side.Below I've included an example of what needs to be done (not my actual game, but it shows the problem that I'm having. IT IS AN MX2004 FLA FILE.
