Professional :: Imported FLV Into Flash / First Video Works / Rest Don't

Jan 6, 2011

Basically I have imported .flv videos into my flash website. The actual .flv videos have been uploaded to my website so the player skin is the only thing on each page and each skin is linked to the url of the video location. Hope its making sense so far. My problem is that the first video works fine but the other 3 videos do not play...the video player skin does not even turn up. I have also uploaded the "ClearOverPlaySeekMute.swf" video skin file onto my website but still does not work..Heres the flash website (its my own portfolio). If you go onto the "Projects" page and click on Solar System and go through the pages then you will see what I mean.URL...

Professional :: Is Preloader Loading Rest Of File

Sep 15, 2010

How do I know that my preloader is loading the rest of my file?  I put a preloader on the first frame  The rest of my web site is on the second frame  If that takes too long to load up, I want the  preloader to load.  How do I know it is actually loading up the rest of the site?  Or, is that not what a preloader actually does?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash CS3 Preloader Only Works As Export?

Feb 11, 2009

I made a preloader for a flash slideshow with different announcements in AS 3.0.When I export the movie to preview it everything works fine. The loading rectangle fills up and then you see the slideshow. The problem comes after I embed it in HTML. Instead of the Preloader to show all i get is a white rectangle the size of the SWF and then the slideshow begins. It's as if it was ignoring the preloader completely. I don't understand why it works when I export it but not on the actual site.

Heres my preloader script:

Code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loadingInfo);
function loadingInfo(e:Event):void {

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader Works In Flash But Not Online?

Jul 10, 2007

I just discovered a strange thing : I have a preloader in all my swfs. All work great online and when I test the swf or the preview in html exepted 1 : the first swf to be loaded called homepage.Here is the schema of the site : HTML page is linked ( with a enter btn)to the 1st swf called Homepage. No preloader gets visible and so, the swf takes a long time to load after clicking the enter button of the html page.Note : the html page is visible until the swf is totally loaded....

ActionScript 3.0 :: PreLoader Not Loaded Before Rest Of Movie?

Feb 10, 2011

I have a preloader that is about 150kB in size and it doesn't load completely until about half of my 6MB movie (yet to be optimized) loads. So by the time my preloader progress graphics come up, 50% of the whole 6MB movie is already loaded. Moreover, it's blank until 50% of the movie is loaded (the preloader just seems to wait until that point before it's graphics and actions begin)?

I have the pre-Loader in the first frame of the movie and the movie begins in the second frame. I tried using separate scenes (a preloader scene preceding a scene for the rest of the movie) and that exhibited identical behavior.

Question: Is there any way I can force my preloader to completely load and run--load progress graphics and all--before the rest of the movie starts loading?

(see code below just in case).

Also - I'm using greensock tweenlite in the preloader, would that make a difference?

PS: When I say movie, it's actually a website

PSS: I'm using MovieClip(root).loaderInfo.bytesLoaded and bytesTotal etc...


Code:
import com.greensock.*;
const ROTATION_INCREMENT1:Number = 0.25;
const ROTATION_INCREMENT2:Number = -.125;

Flash :: Open Swf File Than Works With Socket

Oct 3, 2011

I have a .fla file, that works with Socket class. There is a server(written in Delphi XE, but it does not matter). I connect to it from my .fla. When i execute my .fla from within Flash Professional CS5 everything works fine. But when i tried to execute resulting .swf from Explorer(Win 7, Flash Player 10) i got an error:

SecurityError: Error #2010: Local-with-filesystem SWF files are not

Flash :: IDE - File Works Locally But Not On Other Computers

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but I've created a flash project that works fine on my computer locally. When I take it to another computer(I've tried 3-4), my keyboard events are not working. I used Actionscript 3 to create the file. I've checked to see that the other computers had the latest version of Flash player, but it's still not working on those computers. Does anyone know why my file may not be working? Is there a specific plugin/download I need to have to make my files work?

ActionScript 2.0 :: When Access The Custom Properties Of The Class In The Actual Flash File Everything Works Fine?

Dec 6, 2009

So I have a movie clip associated with an external class in the linkage dialog. I put that movie clip on the stage. I have another external class that contains some code (not for the movie clip but for the stage). When I access the custom properties of the class in the actual flash file (not the external code) everything works fine.For example.myMovieClip.explodeTheCode = true;works in the main movie. However, it doesn't work in the external flash file when I have a reference to that movie clip.myRefToCustomMovieclip.explodeTheCode = true fails!It throws an error. In java, I'd just import the custom class the movie clip is linked to and then I can call all the extra custom methods on the movie clip in the external class I want. However, this does nothing. I still can't access any properties.So my question is, how do I access the custom features of a movie clip (that is linked to a custom class) from an external code file. It works in the movie, but not in the external source code.

Flash - Tag Photo Graph API / REST API?

I'm doing a FB app with the Graph API in Flash. I've got everything working which consists in uploading some images created by the user in the app. The only part that I'm missing is how to tag these photos as with the Graph API it is not possible.

So I was wondering if it's possible to call a method of the REST API even though I'm using the Graph API.

Flash :: Preloader - Show The Download Progress Of A File?

Jun 1, 2010

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.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash File Won't Work In Preloader Scripts?

Aug 5, 2008

I have another preloader question to go on pile with all the others.I have various preloader scripts that I have used in the past, but for some reason with the flash file I'm working on, they don't work. sort of.Basically I have a flash file that dynamically creates a majority of the movieClips through AS (not sure if this makes a difference). Then images are pulled out of the library and into the movieClips. This makes my swf size approximately 4.9mb. So I need a preloader.When I go to simulate the download, I don't see the preloader. The preloader shows up for a second after the loading is done and the movie starts.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Preloader Pause After External File Loaded?

Aug 24, 2010

I have a preloader.swf that loads another swf (main.swf). It all works fine, however I would like the loading bar to stay on 100 (once it gets there) for 2-3 seconds before the main.swf opens, currently as expected from the code below, as soon as it gets to 100% it flicks straight over to the main.swf.

I am using tweener, and I could achieve this easily using the onComplete code to call this.addChild(loader);, however, the problem is, both my preloader and my main swf are liquid layouts, and if I were to call the this.addChild(loader); at the end in its own function, then it throws a

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

. The only way to get around this error is to put the this.addChild(loader); so that it loads upfront. After a bit of google research, i found this error occurs due to the stage properties already been set in the preloader.swf (from liquid layout)then once the main.swf loads it tries to set them again...So is there another way i can cause a delay for 2-3 seconds once my preloader hits 100?

Below is my preloader code with liquid layout settings

Code:
//LIQUID LAYOUT
stage.align=StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode=StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandlerLoading);

[Code]....

1. using my tweener onComplete method and fixing the error caused by preexisting stage properties

2. Thinking of an alternate way to delay the main.swf from opening straight away (keeping in mind that this.addChild(loader); would need to stay where it is...

PS - here is a link to a person who was getting the #1009 error with preloader and liquid layout, their solution works, but won't allow me to use a tweener delay...[URL]

Wcf :: WCF REST Upload File (some Files Succeed - 200, Some Fail - 400 Bad Request)?

Apr 19, 2011

Here's my WCF REST endpoint:

[WebInvoke(Method = "POST", UriTemplate = "_test/upload")]
public void UploadImage(Stream data)
{[code].....

And I'm using the multipart parser from here: http://antscode.blogspot.com/2009/11/parsing-multipart-form-data-in-wcf.html.My issue is that the above works great for some files (.bat, .txt, .cs, .doc) - I see in Fiddler all the good signs including the 200 (OK) status. When I try to upload other files (.xls, .vsd), it fails with a 400 (Bad Request) status. I'm very surprised that a .doc would work and a .xls and .vsd would fail.

It is consistent as well. I've uploaded several .doc files successfully without any failures. I've also tried to upload several .xls files - some succeed, some fail (the successes are consistent over and over, the failures are consistent over and over). As I write this and test more and more files, there is a .pdf file that consistently produces a 504 (Fiddler - Receive Failure) error.

FYI, I am using Flex on the client and using the FileReference class to do the uploads. The Flex code is as standard as they come - using this code with the only change being the WCF REST URL: http:[url].....

Actionscript 3 :: Debug Local Flash File With Preloader - Security Error

Feb 26, 2012

I have two Flash files: pre-loader and application.

Pre-loader: (D:ProjectsFlashAppsddedd.fla) is doing basically this:
var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://localhost/flash/dd.swf");
mLoader.load(mRequest);
}

Application file: (D:ProjectsFlashAppsdddd.fla) is the real application and among other things is doing this:

_loader.load(_request); //where _request = "assets/html/style.css".

When debugging the pre-loader, at this point I am getting an error which says:

SecurityError: Error #2148 File SWF http://localhost/flash/dd.swf cannot access local resource file:///D|/Projects/FlashApps/dd/assets/html/style.css.

The application must be loaded by the pre-loader, it won't start when called directly. But apparently, the security settings are preventing such duo from being possible to debug. Normally when it is on a remote server, it is working ok.

What I have done so far to resolve it:

Added crossdomain.xml to my local i:xampphtdocs folder:

> <?xml version="1.0"?>
> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

[Code]....

Set File > Publish Settings -> Local Playback Security -> "Use local files only" in both files. It didn't work, so I set it to "Use network only" Also didn't work.

What else can be done to be able to debug these Flash files locally?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Preloader That's Aware Of Multiple External File Sizes?

Aug 14, 2010

I have an AS3 .fla that loads an external XML file of image names, and then iteratively loads the images into the .fla. All this works great. What I want is to create a preloader that is aware of the size of all these external images. As far as I can tell there's no way to do this, but I'm hoping someone here is smarter than I am.

I tried Lee Brimelow's method of having a separate SWF whose only job is to load another SWF in its place. This doesn't work because the preloader's call to .bytesTotal only reads the bytes of the main SWF, not of the external XML or JPGs that are dynamically loaded into it. So the result is the preloader reaches 100% when the main SWF is loaded, but that happens really quickly and the bulk of the load time comes after the 100% mark, when the main SWF starts loading in images.

The more I think about this, the more it seems that you can never access the .bytesTotal property until you've already instantiated the loader and called the .load() method. Am I wrong? Is there a way to fetch just the SIZE of an external file without actually initiating the act of loading the file into memory?

Actionscript 3 :: Rest Argument Array To Another Function As An Object Property In Flash?

Nov 17, 2009

I have a function that uses the ... rest argument as follows:

public function dispatchActions(... actions):void
{
var params:Object = new Object();
params.actions = actions; // I also tried casting ie. = (actions as Array)
this.target.dispatchEvent(new ActionEvent(ActionEvent.dispatchActions, params));
}

I call it using myActionObject.dispatchActions("all"); The problem is that when a listener receives the dispatched params object and try to access the actions array, it does nothing. If I try to trace evt.params.actions it traces blank and if I try to trace evt.params.actions[0] it traces undefined.

ex:

function actionsListener(evt:ActionEvent):void
{
var actions:Array = (evt.params.actions) as Array; // I also tried without casting
trace("actions", actions, "actions 0", actions[0], "action 1", actions[1]);
}

This is the output: actions actions 0 undefined actions 1 undefinedI don't understand why I can't pass the ... rest argument through an object as an event parameter. How can I make this work?
