I have 5 loaded swf files, I can play them one by one using "next" button. But now I need a "autoplay " button. My thinking is to dectect one swf finished, then call the "next" function, so it can be played automaticly. The thing is I don't know how to dectect one swf is finished playing.
View 9 RepliesI 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
var introLoader:Loader;
function loadIntro(url:String):void {

I have an external transparent swf loading in to my movie. The swf has to be imported over a button element on stage. The swf plays for a few seconds than it appears to go off-stage... at which point I need to free up that button to be clicked.
So, I need to detect when that movie has finished playing and then unload.
My code so far.
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;

I'm building a flash interface using papervision, when the window is resized i need to recreate the scene. using RESIZE Listener but when the user resizes the window, the listener function is called several times which recreates my scene several times.
does anyone know if there is a way to detect when a user has finished resizing the window so that i can recreate the scene just once?
I've got video that loads from an external source (not streaming though) and would like to be able to detect when the video has stopped playing. The video starts playing when the user clicks the "Play" button, but when it has finished, I want Flash to display an image, so I need to know when it has gotten to the end.BTW: it's likely to be MPEG video too(!) as new content will need to be dumped into the external video folder by someone who does not have Flash nor the ability to create FLV. If this is only possible with FLV (and I know it is -- I've seen other posts on this forum about that) then maybe I should tell this person to get software to enable them to convert videos to FLV before dumping them in the folder)

View 1 RepliesI have some animation (programmatic, I'm NOT using keyframed animation in timeline), and some music I want to play in the background. Once the music file reaches the end (about 30 seconds long), I want to trigger the end of the animation functions.I figure I could either use an actionscript timer to trigger the end of the animation or a keyframe with actionscript that is placed on the timeline near the end of the song but these methods assume knowledge about the duration of the wave file. If I changed the framerate or updated the external wave file, these triggers would possibly no longer sync upIs there some sort of event listener or other detection method for an audio file to signal it has finished playing? Or maybe there is a way to get the duration of the audio file to use in the timer
View 3 RepliesI'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.

to have one movieclip play and then when it finishes the next movieclip plays. How do I do this is as3?
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.
View 4 RepliesI have an urgent issue, I have created an swf file that loads the external FLV, however when finished playing the video stops on the final frame of the FLV.What I want is for the video to unload itself.

vStream = "15_IT_CURVES_BECKS_700x400.flv";
}else{

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?
