ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Content Cross Fade Audio And Video Separately?
Jul 25, 2010
Im working on a project and I dont know how to even think through the problem, as I've only worked through Flash through AS3, and the following needs to be done completely in AS too.
I have two pieces of content - some flash video, and an mp3, both loaded dynamically with loaders etc. All this I think I have fairly well in hand. What I'd like to do make the 'hick-up' as these tracks loop, disappear by cross fading the video and mp3 across it self in the loop - if that makes any sense at all. I suspect that I'll have to delve into the timeline, but perhaps strangely, never done so.

I have an mp3 audio file with some narration and I also have a bunch of images that should change each other on the screen depending on a cue phrases in audio. My question is what will be the best approach to the task. Is it possible to lay out sound and images in timeline the way it was possible in Director? If so, is there any way to automatically extend audio to the number of frames needed to cover its duration? Or do I need to convert an mp3 audio in some video format (flv) in Soundbooth, add cue points, then import video to Flash (what should be the video settings so the Flash accepts it) and use ActionScript to trigger the "slide show"

am a graphic artist trying to be a web designer and it's not working! I am constructing a website where I have a navigation menu nested within a movieclip. On each button click I want the current content to fade out and the new content to fade in. Content consists of new imagery and text. Now since I have these buttons nested within a MC I realize I'm unable to simply use simple gotoAndPlay because it will not be referencing the main timeline. Forgive my AS ignorance,

I'm trying to cross fade between two frames using action script. I can fade a frame out with the following script but I can't figure out the cross fade part.
/* Fade Out Movie Clip
Fades out the symbol instance by decreasing its alpha property within an ENTER_FRAME event until it is invisible.
Instructions:
1. To change the speed at which the symbol instance fades out, change the 0.01 value below (valid values are in the range 0.0 - 1.0). Higher values cause faster fade out.
2. The '-=' operator is a shortcut to typing 'Spread1.alpha = Spread1.alpha - 0.1'.
3. Because the animation uses an ENTER_FRAME event, it progresses only when the playhead moves to a new frame, and the speed of the animation is also affected by the frame rate of the FLA file.
Spread1.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_FadeSymbolOut);
Spread1.alpha = 1;
function fl_FadeSymbolOut(event:Event)

The AS3 script below is a cross-fade that is time-based with no user control. How do I keep the cross fade and control it with the "before" and "after" buttons? And with the API opening in its "before" state? And for users to be able to click and/or hover between the two. The link to what I'm trying to set up is:

I am trying to edit the code from o that the effect will look more like a cross-fade. So what I am trying to do is have the next image pre-load, the previous image alpha fade from 100-0, while the new one fades from 0-100

I don't know why, but this has always been a problem for me. What is the best way to cross fade images in an array? Say I have 10 image and I want them to fade over each other and just loop through the array indefinitely (also taking the preload into consideration).

I know some basic actionscript but this one is a bit more challenging (to me at least), as (i believe) it requires setting variables...anywho, here is the swf:
[URL]
As you can see, right now when you click each button the respective background image comes up. Now what i need is for them to crossfade, not switch. And preferably at a variable speed. Here is the (simple and obvious) actionscript so far:
stop();
button1.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
[code]....
Each button is labeled button1, button2 etc. and each image has an instance name of simply "1", "2" etc....Can anyone help me and let me know what the actionscript would be for them to crossfade ? keeping in mind that the user might click button 1 then 4 then 2 then 5, meaning they cannot simply crossfade in order.

I am trying to do simultaneous cross fade of images in a slideshow. The script here seems to have a very elegant method for cross-fading movieclips: [URL] However, I cannot get this script to work for images Anyone have a clue as to how to make this work with images? Let's say I have done: this.createEmptyMovieClip("photo", 200) and done a loadmovie of an iamge into the the MC. Here is the actionscript that I want to alter so that it will cross fade the iamges...

I'm trying to do a simple image gallery with a previous and next button. I have it working nicely with a little crossfade, however I know that I need to remove old instances of my class after they are done being used - I just don't know how to do it. Especially because I want to wait until the top image/instance is fully faded in before deleting the one below it and what if someone clicks the next/previous button before the image is fully faded in?
Here is my main movie:
[AS]
function nextImage(evt:Event):void{
currentImage ++;
currentImage = (currentImage < imageTotal) ? currentImage : 0;
addImage();
}function prevImage(evt:Event):void{

I'm trying to do a cross-fade effect for my gallery. To do that, I'm using two movieclips, one that holds the image currently displayed, and another one that holds the image that should be displayed next. When the coming image is loaded, the cross-fade effect should happen, the container that holds the image that was on stage should be cleared out, then the image in the other container should be displaced to the former container.
Here's my code so far:
function loadFirstImage():void {
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addFirstImage);
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(myImages[0].url));
currentImage = new MovieClip();

I'm current trying to create a slideshow with images loaded externally, and then crossfading between one another.I've achieved how to load the images one after another, but however I'm having problems with achieving a crossfade.Do I need to have 2 seperate image loaders? Because I do not want to have the first image fade out, showing the background for even a minute of a second before the second one fades in.

how to use if/else and setInterval statements on the cross fade slideshow. I am trying to edit the code to have the xml slideshow loop back to the first image and play continuously. I am ok following existing code, not great at writing/editing my own. I thought I needed to work within the nextImage function, and add a slideshow (); function. I haven't been able to get it right. Here is the code minus the xml loading part:

I'm using jPlayer in a website, which is a cross-platform/cross-browser jQuery solution for audio and video playback on a website. On my website, I will have users upload files either in MP3 or OGG format. I wonder though... in order to truly stay 100% stable on any browser or platform, wouldn't I need to support a corresponding OGG for every MP3 uploaded (and vice-versa)? I know jPlayer uses HTML5 when it can and will fall back to Flash when necessary, but I didn't know if you need to have that file in both formats to have it play everywhere. If I need both file formats then I suppose I'd have to convert the file to the other format using a server-side conversion. If I need just one format... then wouldn't that be just dandy! So my question is, do I need to convert? Or not?

I have to create dynamic content based on content uploaded to site and I need to know best tools for this.In a nutshell. User uploads images. Images embeded into existing video and animated. New video produced for download So far I have looked at Flash Media Server, Flex etc but not sure what the best tool is for the server side production of content. I know I can produce the custom MXML and AS files based on content uploaded and using the Flex SDK I can render these into a SWF. What I don't know is if There are limiatations to this in the context of what I want to achieve For instance can a product like Flash Media Server do something similar.Transcoding is also required hence the interest in FMS.

tracking a slider's movement while a dynamic piece of media is playing (audio, video) and recording the time and new location of the slider. So if you were watching a 30 sec video clip, and you were rating it in real time, how to record the position of the slider and the time that you moved it? Ugh, if I should explain this better,

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

I ran a simple live video streaming application for the first time with actual users and ran into a couple of serious performance issues that had not turned up during testing. In this instance there was one video stream from a live web cam and used FMLE at 150 kbps using VP6 and MP3 @22k. There were 16 clients and everything worked pretty good for about 30 minutes. (although some clients said their audio and video were out of sync by up to 3 seconds)
Then individual clients would have either the video freeze or the video would continue and the audio would stop. These clints had to "disconnect" and then "connect" again to the application. This happened to all of the clients at one time or another for several minutes. I stopped and restarted the FMLE with progessively lower bandwidth settings down to 75 kbps but still clients were having the same issue.
I eventually stopped the FMLE and used the applications built in publisher at 45 kbps and that seemed to eliminate the freeze/dropping issue. But of course the video quality was very poor and some clients still reported that the audio was out of sync with the video. The server hosting the FMS application is a quad processor dell with lots of memory and network connectivity. The Flash Media Admin Console performance graph showed the total Bandwidth as 3 Mbps at maximum.

how I can fade an audio clip out when I go from, i.e., frame 5 to frame 6?
The reason is that I have my swf playing up to frame 5, where it stops, and allows the audio to continue playing. But, if the user wishes to go to the next part of my swf, i.e. frame 6 to frame 10, where it stops at frame 10 to play the next audio clip, I want the audio from the first section to fade out once the swf gets to frame 6 on the timeline to allow for the next audio clip to play.
Currently, if I proceed to the next part, frames 6 to 10, and the audio from the first part has not finished playing, then both the first audio and the second audio play simultaneously.

I'm a newcomer to Actionscript programming and trying to modify a Flash site template downloaded from [URL] (which is an AS2 template). I've almost succeeded at what I need to do but have run into a couple of brick walls. One is that I've added a video player to the site and need to make the background music track smoothly fade out when the video starts and fade back in when it ends (or is stopped). I set up a listener object for the video player that works. It's the smooth fade of audio levels that doesn't.

I have intro audio music playing on a project I am working on. The audio is in the timeline (but doesn't necessarily have to be), and when I click a button to move away from it, it just keeps playing. I can use SoundMixer.stopAll(); to make is stop as you click the button, but this makes a rather harsh abrupt stop to the music that is undesirable. I would like to have it fade the audio track out once the button is clicked.
