i am loading some external swfs with the bulkloader. The strange thing, they start playing in the background ( i can hear the sound) without even having added them to the stage.
Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
public function init():void
{
bLoader = new BulkLoader("bLoader");
[Code].....
I'm using the same code I always use for preloading another swf but it's not working this time. The problem this time is that when the loading bar gets to 16% every time you can hear the movie I'm loading playing in the background. I can just add a stop to the first frame of the movie I'm loading ("trial_1.swf") but how do I tell it to go to the second frame once it has loaded?
Here's my code:
var myrequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest ("trial_1.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);
[code]....
I have a loader using the following [code]...
But when the loader reaches about 40 to 50 % the movie starts to play without the loader reaching 100%.
All the code is done in frame1 in the Loader.swf
I am a flash newbie, how can I get the flash to start playing before it is finished loading on a website? I embedded a FLV file into a flash and I'm going to export it as a SWF, I want it to start playing the movie before it's done loading so people don't think that it's not working.
View 2 RepliesI tried to implement a simple preloader for an existing swf movie. I've created a new flash document and added the Loader as well as a ProgressBar component. In the action script of the key frame 1, I implemented the following:
import mx.controls.ProgressBar;loader.contentPath = "myMovie.swf"; pBar.setStyle("themeColor", "0xF49417");pBar.setStyle("color","0x3D566F"); pBar.labelPlacement = "bottom"; pBar.label = "LOADING %3%%"pBar.scaleY = 150; pBar.conversion = 1024; pBar.source = loader; pBar.mode = "polled"; loader.load();
The problem is now that the movie starts playing (i.e. its sound) before the progress bar is completely finished. This usually happens around 80%. How can I avoid that the movie starts before the progress bar reaches 100%?
I'm using BulkLoader to load in images, SWFs, XML, etc into a game. When working local, the content property on the LoadingItem is always good depending on the type of asset: Bitmap if it's an image, MovieClip if it's a SWF etc. When I test the same swf, but under localhost, or online, the content property is always a Loader object. Is this normal? Am I missing out a parameter or something?
View 1 RepliesI'm using the following script to load external swf's in to a main swf, but when I simulate download, the sound of the external swf starts playing before it is completely loaded, i.e, when the percentage in the bandwidth profiler reaches about 60% the sound of the swf being loaded can be heard, and when the percent reaches 100, it continues playing and the content of the external swf are now visible.
var myLoader1:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(myLoader1);
var myRequest1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myMovie.swf");
myLoader1.load(myRequest1);

Weird problem going on right now. And I seriously don't know what this is about.
On my main timeline (new document)
I create a text. I convert that text to an image. I drag that image on my main timeline at frame 1.
Then I set opacity to 0%. Create a keyframe at frame 50. Then I Tween it. And at frame 50, I set opactity back to 100%.
When I test the movie (ctrl enter) it just doesnt show the tween AT ALL. It goes straight to the last frame.
When I just go to frame 1, and press enter. It does work like it's supposed to.
I'm working on a project where a SWF will play (as sort of a splash), followed by JS. After the video plays, the navigation and content will appear, and the video will fade out. I'm just wondering what would be the best way to accomplish this? Play the video first and then load everything via ajax behind the scenes? The goal is to be as seamless as possible and I am having a flash asset provided to me by the client.

View 2 RepliesI have produced an app for iOS but when it loads the music from the iPhone doesn't stop.
I have read on forums that if an app contains sounds that the iPod will fade out but it doesn't for me. I have tried loading the sounds dynamically (these sounds don't play at all if the iPod is playing) and embedding them into the movie. Nothing seems to work sadly. I have ensured that I have all the recent updates for flash and the air packager and I can't find a solution to this anywhere.
On my main SWF Home File i have 2 swf files are loaded into my (main home swf) and everything is runing smooth BUT the problem is when i want to watch the video the music is still playing i have to click on the button to stop music playing.

NOTEKeep in mind i have 2 SWF files that are loaded in to the main swf file ...Home SWF is the main file
MP3 SWF << Loads on Home SWF

All i want is when the video is playing automatically stop the music and when the video is finish the music automatically continuing from where it was left.
i have a client who wants to make a school system on his website, now i've done that, however what my client wants is to put wmv or flv files inside every lesson and he wants to be sure that the user who has registered to the online school WATCHES fully all the wmv or flv and then redirect him to a quiz page where he will take a test.My client wants to be sure that the users are watching the wmv or flv files before doing any quiz.SO is there a way where i can know when the wmv or flv file has FINISHED playing so that i would redirect them to another page??

I am looking for code that would let me detect when an flv has finished playing and advance the playback head to the next frame. So to set this up I have my flv on frame 1 (instance name vid1) and I want it to automatically "gotoandstop" on frame 2 when "vid1" is finished playing.

I am using the loader class to load an external swf "cube_final.swf". note I am setting a movie_clip (set on stage) to alpha=0 as I want it to remain invisble until the loaded swf finishes playing. I will then set alpha = 100% .
But how to i detect that the swf has finished playing? I can detect whether its loaded (i'll place a preloader in the loading() function)
this.open_cube.alpha = 0

How do I do that? Writing the code in the timeline does not seem good to me in as3, nor am I sure how to do it. I saw a site with an answer but it uses the main timeline for coding. Is it okay if I use the timeline for codes like in as2 or is it considered a bad practice?
