Does anyone know why Flash videos do not cache when Initially downloaded.
If you wait for a flash video to download filly then refresh the browser the video shows the download bar loading again. Unlike images where the download bar only appears when you first load the image after that its cached in the browser.[url]...
How would you be able to stop people from downloading flash video from your site instead of viewing it in a flash player. I would like to prevent people from downloading the flash video by ripping the stream. I am not looking for 100% prevention but ways to make this difficult and annoying.
View 4 Replieseverytime I look for ways of sending back to XML changes produced in Flash, the tutorial always assume that we are using a server. Is there a way for having a Flash projector that everytime it starts 1-checks for data to load to the projector 2- lets us do changes to data (add, change and remove xml data) 3- and in the end we can save the changes made to the XML file that was initially loaded?

View 1 Replies[code]This script is for a loader image gallery in flash, as part of a class assignment. What happens is that in flash, when I open the swf file, the initial image (images/nair_evanescentautumn.png) will load fine. However, clicking on any thumbnail image (including the exact same images/nair_evanescentautumn.png), will result in an error saying the file cannot be found.I cannot figure out why it is doing this... I've tested it over. Clicking each thumbnail does go to the correct position in the two separate functions. All said full-size image links are in the folder images/, and replacing the initial loader image will load the other images in place of the default one. However, clicking on any thumbnail still results in URL not found, even though everything works correctly.[code]Before anyone asks why I'm putting this kind of content into a flash site, I'm not--this is only for a class assignment. I'm just trying to figure out why my images aren't loading right when I'm only doing the exact same thing in the functions as I am on the other pages.Of note, commissions.swf has the exact same feature, just with swf files loaded instead, and it works perfectly fine. home, traditional, digital, and photography all have the image gallery, and all have the same issue (I only referenced one page because if I can fix one page I should be able to fix all of them).As for the artworks, they are all my fiance's. The website design was built for her, and I used the website design for this project because I didn't want to have to build an entirely new interface design. Since the project also required a gallery, I felt that this interface would work just fine.
View 3 RepliesAny way to set the text that initially appears within a ComboBox without actually making it a selection? I have a ComboBox that initially starts out with one selection labeled "Select One". When you click on the ComboBox, the first selection in the list is "Select One". Is there a way to tell the ComboBox to just say "Select One" when it first hits the stage without making it editable?
View 3 Repliesi have used a purchased site template, everything works fine locally but when the site goes live it starts off fine but the first menu you click on nothing ever happens, if i go to another menu this loads as expected and if i then go back to the previous (non working) menu it also now loads. Everything works fine from now on just never on the intial load, does anyone have any idea why this may happen?

View 1 RepliesI'm starting a project that will build a flash file with quite complex capabilities. I expect the size of the swf/swc files will be quite big.

View 2 Replieshow to do this, But I cannot get my own to work. I am loading an external swf file into an empty movieclip. I would like the external swf to be centered initially, and after page resize.
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.events.Event;
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
[Code].....
I'm loading a dozen or so external .swf movies in the 1st frame of my movie in the timeline which are to be initially hidden and shown to display page content when necessary along the rest of the timeline. My problem is that when I load them in, they all automatically display on the 1st frame. Here's is the code I'm using:
Code:
var keyC:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("keyC", getNextHighestDepth());
keyC = loadMovie("data/Key C.swf", keyC);
keyC._visible = false;
[Code].....
It's as if the _visible commands aren't working in the 1st frame but are in the rest of the timeline. Perhaps I need to use an onLoad method to wait until each MC can be manipulated this way?
I'm trying to create a global variable that initially stores a 0. Then via a function will change the value of that global variable, and allow the other functions to access the new number. I have it working where it adds 1 to the variable, and stores the number 1 however, I cannot get the number to add up beyond 1.
I have this in my first layer,frame.
_global.thisSound = 0;
function PlaySound(){
temp = _global.thisSound;
_global.thisSound = eval(temp) + 1;
}
Please note this is the basics of this function, there are other parts to the function for playing sounds, but this is the only part that I'm having the problem
I wanted to know if there is a way to embed a pdf file into a flash document to be downloaded by the customer. I want them to be able to click on the thumbnail version of the file to start the download of the high res version of that file. I am making an interactive cd so the files would be stored on the cd itself. I know I could do it by storing the files on the internet but I would like to keep everything local

View 3 Repliesi've got a main home page in flash coded in AS2 that first loads up 8 thumbnails when you click on one it goes into fullscreen mode and loads images dynamically side by side that you can pan through with your mouse.the problem is is that i am using the setBackground(); and it is not scaling the Loader components inside my movie clip correctly initially, it is scaling them down yet when i resize the window it scales them perfectly.Here is my AS to scale:
ActionScript Code:
// this tells Flash NOT to allow the assets to be scaled
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

View 1 RepliesI have a page that has a table with each row corresponding to an audio file. The last cell in each row embeds a simple flash audio player. The problem is that the flash file for the player is being downloaded for each row separately and as soon as rows go beyond 40-50 it crashes the browser.
I tried using different players (1pixelout, flash-mp3-player) and the problem is still there, so its not a player specific issue.
Is there any way to cache the player so that it is only downloaded once?

I'm working on a project that includes several flash elements developed using an XML method. The objects work fine in all browsers except IE. Here is the behavior in IE. You can interact with the objects fine the first time through, but if you leave the page and come back, you just get a perpetual loading symbol. You can get the object back by right clicking and pressing play, but that is an obnoxious work around. I think it is a caching error in IE, but I'm unsure how to fix it given that it is not occurring in other browsers.
View 1 Repliesi have a flash app that requests xml generated by a php script. The data doesn't change much, and i would like flash to cache the xml instead of loading it every time. I've been checking my access logs, and every single time i reload a page with the flash app on it, the php file is accessed and the xml downloaded.
I've read that flash doesn't control what is cached, as it just requests something from the browser, but nothing else that flash downloads (i.e. mp3 files that are supplied by the xml) doesn't get cached. So I'm not really sure what that means.
I've googled the heck out of this, but everything i find is telling me how to keep flash from caching stuff.

Im developing an interactive in wich I use many animations either frame-by-frame (image-by-image) or with an embedded flv in the timeline and I have noticed that all of them don't play smoothly when first played, but once the animation has occured once they play the way its supposed to be. Im assuming is because once played an animation gets into the machine cache or something, so I wanna know if there is any way to force an animation to get into the display cache before is played.
