I can't seem to resize video right. I have tried using flashes own "video import" and of course setting up a standard video class instance, through AS... only to find my options of resizing it are funny. It seems like it goes off to the right rather than fill my screen up fully.
Code:
contactVideo.x = 0;
contactVideo.y = 0;

I have a higher resolution .flv file and I'm trying to replace an older version within my Flash file. However once replace (by use of the "swap video" feature when right clicking video), it blows the video up way bigger. When trying to scale down the video, it become fuzzy/pixelated upon output to .swf. Any proper way to resize this higher-res video without loosing picture quality?
View 1 RepliesI've tried a few ways but nothing seems to work. What I'd like to do is have my users post video's with the given embed code (example):
<object id="cnbcplayer" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="380" codebase="[URL]">
<param name="type" value="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
[Code] .....
But then, I want to resize it to be 300px wide. I've tried updating the attributes with jQuery but that didn't work.
My company sent me a video that they wanted us to post on the intranet. It's a simple powerpoint video with a narrator talking about some policy and benefit changes, etc.
I tried the exporting the video in both 720(width) and 1280 format, and found that when shown in fullscreen mode, the 1280 format was much easier to read than the 720, however, we didn't want to show it on the intranet page at full 1280 by default. So I modified the html and javascript that plays the movie so that it would show in 720 width on the page. The problem with resizing the 1280 video into a 720 space is that the video player bar (where the play, stop, volume controls are) becomes extremely small when I do this. Of course, this is because Flash generated the player with a toolbar optimized for 1280, so it's getting scaled down when I pack it into a smaller playing area.
Is there an solution to this that I haven't thought of? How can I generate this movie to get the better full screen appearance of the 1280 video, but also still show the video in a smaller 720 area when the user is not in full screen mode?
URL...How can the pixelation in the video on this page be stopped? I'm assuming that this is a resizing issue. But if you are creating pristine video and it gets pixelated like this, what's the point?
View 7 RepliesI have a problem with my video player that I'm working on. Currently, it's using a video screen component that is fed video via netStream. There is a fullscreen button that when clicked, sets the mode to true, and the player resizes. However, I'm having trouble where the control bar is concerned.

I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?
View 1 RepliesI've got a little problem with BitmapFill, I'm trying to use a sprite as a container for various things and i would like it to have a filled pattern background. my problem is that i want it to resize the sprite to the height of the window but not have the background fill resize, and add more / crop as the window size is changed. to illustrate what i mean, please view the diagram attached to this post .

Recently i have visited so many video enriched flash site like this one [URL] Most of them shows video in full size. I downloaded the video using FF plugin. Video framesize is very small compared to the stage size. When i tried to add video and resize the video acoording to the page size , it slows the browser. I tried to embed the flv inside an swf and loaded the swf using normal loader and plyed it.. but the quallity and performance comapred to these site is very low..

I'm starting to learn flash with AS 3. I can handle flash quite ok at the moment, but now I'm learning AS3.However, sometimes when I start Flash, the workspace "Actions" is larger than my screen. This means that a part of my script is not readable. #$Q^$!! I've tried everything to resize it, but didn't find a solution. I've flash professional for mac. I've tried switching 'workspaces' , try to move the workspace in another position. It doesn't work 'cause I can't drag the space above my screen.
View 3 RepliesAlright, so I'm playing several different videos at different sizes with the FLVPlayback component and something odd is happening that I don't remember happening before...Now, when I switch from video to video, the FLVPlayback physically resizes to match the height of the video... I don't remember this happening before. Before, the FLVPlayback would just vertical center the video no matter what size the height of the video is.
View 1 RepliesI got a flash movie mostly composed of bitmaps and not a lot of tweening animations or actionscript. I initially made it quite large but now my customer decided he wants it smaller. This'd prolly be a piece of cake if it was made of vector shapes, but since it isn't, I need to resize the source images as well (no point in wasting bandwidth or introducing resampling artifacts with big images). Most my movieclips don't have a consistent registration point so I'm afraid they'll move around if I just resized the images and updated them from the library.
So I'm just wondering if there's a smart way of doing this or should I just start everything from scratch?
I have flash resizing it's container div by using external interface to call the javascript:[code]Now this appears to work fine in every browser except chrome. For some reason after the div is shrunk back down to size, the flash player looks like it's frozen. It's actually not frozen because if you resize the window the flash player starts playing again and you can see it had made progress since it appeared frozen. This only happens in chrome. Does anyone have any idea why something like this might happen?The site so you can check it out yourself(yes I know it's a broken mess in IE, but I'm kind of ignoring that for now):[code]I've tried different window modes but that doesn't help. The problem is when it resizes the div back down because if I comment that line out the flash never appears to freeze. But I need to be able to resize the div...
View 2 RepliesI've got an animation in Flash that's made of a number of large images - too large it turns out - flash keeps crashing and running out of memory.
I'd like to scale these down to 50% but maintain their on-stage size in Flash (or at least keep the positioned the same). I've scaled them down on disk, but this scales them in flash too (so messes up their relationships).
I am using Flash CS5 and when I exprt my file to swf I notied that after exporting and playing it in Flash player (on my desktop) I can change the size of the window and the scene itself eventthough I have set the width and height dimension to e.g. 468x60.
So, the bad thing is that if I ahve some objects that are moving from this area and in banner I do not see them in flash player I can see all which is not good.
Is there a setting in export option to disable this behavior or some actionscript, so my client will not be able see the "mess-behind-the-scenes" :)?
I can probably remove some objects using actionscript, however if I have looping background image it is necessary to be bigger than 468px In my case 3x.

View 10 RepliesI use a custom component for painting a graph on a canvas, now when the windows is resized I want to determine the actual width and height of my canvas to resize the graph as well, therefore I used the resize event I can use in mxml.Now I detected in my method for resizing I only receive the width and height of the canvas just before resizing not after. When grabbing an edge of my window and moving it slowly for resizing this does not matter but when maximizing or minimizing the windows, this plays a more important role.
View 1 RepliesI'm using the following code to load an swf in a pure actionscript project (Flex Builder 3)
_loader = new Loader();
_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, Loader_Complete);
_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, Loader_Init);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Skins/TestSkin.swf");
_loader.load(request);
[Code]..
I have seen examples online where people say these work for them but whenever I set width or height in any of these ways, the loaded swf is simply not displayed at all.
I have coded a map that when a province object is clicked on, it should move to the center of the screen and grow a percentage of the width, along with displaying a number of different things.
The problem is that in order for the image to resize it needs to be clicked on twice. It moves, and all of the children display just as they were designed to do, but the resize doesn't work on the first click.
menuItem4_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
public function onClick(mc:MouseEvent):void {
menuItem4_mc.width = width * .65;

O.K I'm really confused about some resizing behaviour in flex and I'm hoping somebody can explain whats going on to me.I have a container movieclip 3 movieclips deep.MC2 is inside MC1 and MC3 is inside MC2.I have another movieclip that contains a bimap image that is 55 pixels wide and 38 pixels high.When I add this movieclip to MC3 the movieclip becomes 55 pixels wide and "48" pixels high.
View 2 RepliesIn my Flash Application (AS3), I want to get the stage size and use that so my objects (which the user controls) can't go outside of the screen. However, when I use:stage.stageWidth;stage.stageHeight;The values I get aren't actually what I want. They give me the stage size, but if I resize the window, the numbers change as well. Now, in a html page, I don't think that will matter, because the user can't resize it... however, I'd like for it to be more solid than relying on the window size.stage.width;stage.height;However, those gave me "801" and "601", one greater than my actual stage size. Those values did not change when I resized the window, but they were one greater.
