I've searched for a good while but I can't seem to find an answer to this question:How to catch all errors of an external SWF file when it's loaded?The story:I'm building a flash app that would upload and then load any user-created SWF file and display it if it doesn't throw errors.I've tried to use try/catch statement but it doesn't seem to catch internal errors of the loaded SWF.
Code (a chopped version):

// load the piece

Is there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):
Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!)
SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation
fancyupload - looks buggy.
phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?
I changed a layer entry of my Flash file by moving around various elements within the layer. I sitll have the original file, too. I'd like to put it back exactly like it was in the original file. How do I replace the changed sprite element from the new file with the original from the old file?

View 1 RepliesI have an SWF movie (1375 frames) and created a progress bar (248px wide) with a slider that moves according to the movie progress. I'm doing that next way:Calculating the distance for the slider to be moved each frame (248 / 1375) On each ENTER_FRAME moving the slider for the calculated distance The problem is - the movie ends far before the slider reaches the end of the progress bar.
I'm thinking that the distance (Step 1) is is somehow ends floored by Flash and the actual distance it moves the slider is smaller than required. That's why the movie ends, but the timeline control just passed the 2/3 of its way. My question is - is there any solution for the problem? Or any other way to go, if it's a wrong one?
A web channel streaming service streams to a certain IP range, it only checks the IP in example.com/cmd.php?id=xxx (channel number) and outputs an rtmpe stream URL, nothing else.How do I trick it to get my local URL instead of the one on their server? I have considered squid proxy, but is there some way to do it with a firefox plugin or greasemonkey script?
Edit:I will try to specify:It's a streaming service from an ISP and cable provider. They stream for free to people on their IP's. On their webtv page, which is called webtv.example.com, there is a flash player. If you are not on an IP from their ISP, you can't stream anything but the test channel.When you try to change channel via. javescript:videoplayer_changechannel(xxx) it makes this HTTP request:
[URL]
If you are on one of their IP's you will get an RTMP URL, like this:
[URL]
This is what the flash player requests, and if it get's this response it load the channel requested. There is no HTML on the php page, just the URL. Note that the rtmp URL is static.If you are not on one of their IP's it will return a random sentence (something stupid, the programmers having fun).I wan't to trick the flash player into getting the right value, even though it's not on one of the ISP's IP's.
I have have applied the progress bar from the componets panel in Flash CS3 using AS2 and I have been able to make it function: however, I have not been successful in getting the progress bar to unload once my file loads. I have tried a couple of things like using an if statement and the unLoadMovieClip but I seem to be wording the code wrong because neither have worked at all, they even have cancelled out all the other code.

View 0 RepliesI've built an online magazine, that has several links to videos. One page has four of them. They all work great except under one specific circumstance. If the user quickly opens a video, and closes it, moving on the to next, and doing the same, the 3rd or 4th video may appear unresponsive. I've narrowed this down to being a bandwith issue. If I look at my activiyt in Safari, the FLV files continue to download even if the user closes my player.
Is there anyway to kill this download if the user closes a player?[code]...
I'm currently enrolled in an ActionScript course, and cannot seem to get my progress bar to work correctly. We were tasked with creating a simple image loader application, which would access externally hosted images (through use of a PHP proxy script), and then spit the image onto the user's screen (with a progress event and progress bar to track the image's download progress).
However, when I run it, I get these mysterious black graphical glitches everywhere, as well as a non-functioning progress bar. In some browsers I get the following error: "ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label NaN not found in scene NaN. at flash.display.MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at Document/imageLoadProgress().
Here is my code - I cant for the life of me figure out what is wrong. I figure it has something to do with the imageLoadProgress() function, or my progress bar (which is just a simple 100-frame movie clip with a motion tween and a "stop()" command at the beginning).

I have a swf page that I would like to convert to a png file. Before I convert the file, I would like to zoom in to the swf file so that I have a larger image. I try swftools to convert, but the png image quality is not good enough: Zoomed-in png image looks too blurry.
I should do to capture/use a zoomed-in version of a swf file. A linux compatible command line tool would be great as I am thinking of converting hundreds of images.
Is it possible to copy swf file from server while browsing it ?
View 3 RepliesYou all know the new generation of fancy, mostly Flash-based file uploaders like SWFUpload that can show a progress bar while uploading - a great improvement especially for shaky and low-bandwidth connections.
However, these uploaders all bring their own logic of how to handle uploads on the client side. I am looking for an unobtrusive way to "fancify" existing, classical file uploads, i.e. introducing a progress bar to normal file upload forms.
Due to the architecture of uploading files, this is most likely not possible without some tweaking on the client side.
I am looking for a solution that keeps the tweaking to an absolute minimum, e.g. a component that adds itself to the onsubmit event of a normal form, performs the file upload, displays a nice progress bar, puts the resulting temporary (server side) file path into the form, and submits it. On the server side, I just have to modify my script to use the file path provided by the flash uploader, instead of $_FILES and consorts, and think about security for a moment.
This is not exactly what all the Flash-based uploaders do: They can use data from a form, but they do not provide possibilities to submit the form as is, what is what I'm looking for. I am looking for a (probably) Flash based upload function taken a step further.
Im looking for a jquery or ajax file uploader, Im currently using the FancyUploader which worked great until Flash brought out their update making all flash progress bars absolete, now whenever I try to upload large files... it will fill the progress bar to 100% in a matter of seconds even though the actual upload finished minutes after. So im now looking for a new uploading script that DOESNT require flash but can still display the progress.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to track the progress of a file upload in AS3, and I'm getting strange behavior. When I select a file and upload it, the progress is instantaneously 100% even if the file is 10 or more megabytes, but it's not finished. The onComplete event is fired about 30 second to a few minutes later (depending on file size) when the file has really finished uploading. I've tested this locally and on the server, the behaviour is the same. Has anyone else experienced this? Very frustrating ...
Otherwise, the file is uploading fine. The code is simple:
myFileReference.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onUploadProgress);
function onUploadProgress(e:ProgressEvent) {
var pctDone:Number = (e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal) * 100;
trace(pctDone);
}
I know how to setup a preloader and I have that working. But when I debug the flash application and simulate a download, it has a blank background until a few seconds have passed. I know it is "downloading" the swf file and I'm wondering if I can show a progress bar for that, or do I need to have the swf file as small as possible and pre load everything needed and have all assets as a separate file I fetch? I found something with ProgressEvent.PROGRESS but this only loads after the flash file is finished downloading.

I'm having an odd problem that I can't seem to resolve. I'm updating some old animations (created around 2004-2005). Most have gone without a hitch, however one file has been a problem.
First the specs: Windows 7 64bit, Master Collection CS5.5. All updated.
The problem with the file:
I can open it just fine, test the movie, etc. If I try to save the document, it fails, saying "Unable to save the document as...". I can save the file as a CS4 document, which seems to work OK. However, I need to move the contents into a new document. If I try to Copy the laters, Flash immediately crashes.
I have my own conf.xml file (src/conf/conf.xml) consists some properties (alphas, colors,etc). When i try to export release build, I see list of files which not includes that file.Why? When i run my application at debug it file places in "bin-debug" folder.
