ActionScript 3.0 :: Gradual Acceleration Of Movie Clip Frame Rate?
Dec 29, 2011
I'm new to AS3 and desperately trying to figure out how to smoothly accelerate the frame rate of a movie clip (let's say from 0 to 24 over the course of a second or two) as a result of rolling over a button. I've been working on it for about a week just to get this far, and now I've hit a wall. Here's my code thus far:
stop();
var cf:int;
var fr:int = 1;[code]....
Basically, right now it starts at a very slow frame rate and stays there, never getting up to 24 fps. The only two objects in the scene are button1 and box1. The desired functionality is that when you hover over button1, the box1 movie clip starts playing slowly then accelerates up to 24 fps and continues playing at that rate until you roll out of button1.

it possible to set the frame rate of an externally loaded movie to a different frame rate than the movie it is embedded within. I basically have a flash site that loads flash movies using loadMovie command, however, the frame is lost within these movies and simply adopts the main site frame rate.

I'm trying to find a way to make a certain movie clip run at a faster frame rate than the main timeline. I've searched around a lot and only found ways to make it go at a slower frame rate (using the FPS Controller Component).

I am building a small flash application. In my application I've inserted an fla video. the flv video's length when I open it in vlc player is 16 seconds (after I edit the speed of the video in an external program and then converted it back to fla). When I open it in flash cs 5, the video's length is back to 90 seconds. I guess it's got something to do with the frame rate of my flash project. I'd like to be able to change the frame rate of only the movie clip containing that video, and not of the entire stage. How is that possible?

I was wondering if it is possible to change the frame rate per seceond (fps) of a movie clip while the movie is playing.

I have a movie clip (1). When I click on 1, I would like to move a second clip (2) to another position along the x axis. This I know how to do. What I'm not sure of it how to code it to decelerate as it approaches it's final position

I'm recording Webcam to FMS 3.5 but when I play the recorded video from FMS it's choppy. I have set the camera.fps to 30 but when I trace out the currentFPS for camera it's variable and usually falls between 20 and 30. However when I play the recorded video, netStream's currentFPS returns a lower value, something closer to 10. So my question is, 1) why currentFPS of netStream is not the same as Camera's? 2) What's the actual frame rate of the recorded video (not the netStream, but FLV's)?

I understand that in order to make it consume less CPU cycles flash player forces the player to only execute at 2fps (or some other ridiculously low amount) when the swf is no longer in focus (or even if it's still "in focus" but not being rendered to the screen by virtue of being in a section of the browser window that's scrolled offscreen.) Is there any possible way to change this? I have a 3D engine that needs to keep the FR up.

How to adjust the frame rate of an imported movie so that it would run in its intended fps rate, and not at the same rate as the presentation in which is importing it. (To be more specific, my main presentation runs at 1 fps, but the intro movie I want to add runs at 20 fps). Anyway, along my travels, someone pointed me towards the code at [URL]. I have since downloaded it and tried to get it to work. As it turns out, I know so little about flash and actionscript programming that I am unable to get it to work properly!
According to the comments in the code, it is executed by calling the fPlayControl() function, which has the following syntax:
_levelN.fPlayControl(_root.mcMovie,nFPS)
where (quoting now)
"'N' is the level number of where this swf is loaded and 'mcMovie' is a movie clip on the _root timeline of the movie that is calling this function and 'nFPS' is a number between 1 and 120."
I don't even know what levels are! Are they layers? Thus, the first layer is level 0? Then the next layer is level 1? Next, how do I give an imported movie a name so that I can call this function with the movie's name as parameter? I tried importing a movie into the library, and then giving it a name, but I still couldn't get the bloody thing to work.
My steps to attempt to get this to work: I opened the play_control.fla file, and chose "Import to library..." I then selected my little intro movie, and then I brought up the library, and renamed it. I also choose the "Export for ActionScript" option, which automatically highlighted one or two other options. Then I added this one line after all the other ActionScript code:
_level0.fPlayControl(_root.myintro,1);
Anyway, after doing that, nothing came up. Then I added another layer and inserted the intro movie from the library into it and played the movie again. This time the intro played, but it zoomed along (at I'm assuming 120 fps, which is what the speed is set to in the demonstration file I downloaded). Thus, it still wasn't working.

I'm trying to increase the speed of a single movieclip. The frame rate of my movie is 12, and I don't want to increase the frame rate of the entire movie just to speed up one movieclip.I've seen tutorials all over the web, and all the actionscript controlled speeds of movieclip tutorials are for more interactive animations, such as mouse movements and rollovers.I'm looking for something that simply plays a movieclip faster on the timeline and I'm sure there is a simple code for this.

Does anyone know how to trace out the frame rate that a swf is currently playing at?I've tried creating two date objects on adjacent frames, running the getTime() method on each and subtracting the difference but it seems to be the same regardless of what I set the movie's frame rate to in the property inspector...I am basically trying to monitor the performance of an animation at runtime and make adjustments on the fly based on how fast or slow the movie is playing.

I'm attempting to advance a movie by time not by frame rate so, on frame 34 I have
Code:
function playNext() {
gotoAndPlay("scene1");
clearInterval(timerInterval);
}
timerInterval = setInterval(playNext, 5000);
with a scene1 label at frame 45, but the movie does not stop at 34, it continues to frame 45 plays to 55, where their is a
Code:
stop()
action. At frame 55 it loops back to 45, playing once again to 55 then stops.
What Am I missing?

it isn't such a big problem bur for a beginner like me it is.I have a movie clip called "Lion_beginning_mc", inside of it I have 3 Key Frames and Inside each and one of them I have different shapes.For example:Key Frame number 01 - DogKey Frame number 02 - CatKey Frame number 03 - MouseI want to move this movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" form Key frame number 1 to Key frame number 20.I want the Dog,Cat and a mouse to change between each other only once while moving from Key Frame number 1 to 20.And then when the movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" reaches his goal another movie clip or a frame (with a shape) will start.

I have a 2D side scrolling game (made with ActionScript 3) that runs at 60 frames per second. I'm trying to make it frame rate independent so it will run on slower devices.
To do this I create a var called timeElapsed by calculating how many milliseconds have passed between each frame and dividing that by 16 (60 fps is about 16ms, I think.) So that at 60 fps the result would be about 1. Then I times any time related vars by this number (e.g player.x = speed * timeElapsed;) This is the code:
private var oldTime :Number;
private var defaultFrameRate :uint = 16; // the default frame rate in milliseconds
private var timeElapsed :Number;
[Code]....
As you can see, at 30 frames per second the player is moved further in the same amount of real time. What seems to be the issue is that, at 30fps in frame one, my current code doesn't account for the slight difference in speed between frame one and two at 60fps. I thought of getting the average value of speed between any two frames at 60fps and using that to calculate a more accurate value when the frame rate changes but I got the feeling wouldn't work correctly in some other situations since at 60fps for example, it would move the player by 115 and not 110 pixels.
Is their any way to accurately simulate an object accelerating in a way that is frame rate independent?

I got a MovieClip filled with a lot of others clips... When I change de X or Y value of this first MovieClip the frame rate slows down for during 1 frame. For exemple... I created a counter that returns around 30 mseconds every frame, but when I do this X or Y change the return is around 400 mseconds... When I try to fill the first MovieClip with less information it goes faster, about 100+-200 mseconds...

I have a character, And in its movieclip I`ve got 3 frames (first has an idle pose, second a walking pose and third a running pose), each with a movieclip with an action in it.Well, what I wanted is that when I am walking with this character, and press the SHIFT key he runs.And I`ve got the following code
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT))[code]....
But when I click the shift button, he shows the first frame static of the movie clip in frame 3 (running frame).

i've tried placing the code in the actions pnel of the mc; on the mc at the main time line and in various other unspeakable places... but i always get the same error warning me that this code can only be used in movieclip instances and that my stupidity levels are reaching dangerous levels. (error: 'Symbol=stage_mc, Layer=actions, Frame=1: Line 5: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent(enterFrame){'
i fear somebody will reply to this with:'the code goes on the movieclip instance'...at which point i will take up a career in knitting (i knew i shouldn't have given up the course in the first place)

I have an invisible button and only one mc, the mc loops 3x then stops, this is defined with as in mc.
Now i want to play the movie from the invisible button but only loop it once. Which means i would like to play it from frame 1 to frame 215.
And also when u rollout i would like the movie to stop and go to frame 1.
this is my button code so far
Code:

I am making a quiz/game, and it works like this, two teams that have to take over the united states, by answering history questions, so right now I have it were when you click on a state, it takes you to a question (on a different frame in the main timeline), then I have a problem, if you get the question right it takes you to the "board" of the United States (that works), but when you are back the color of the state should change its color to red (on frame of the clip) if south got it and blue (another frame of the clip) if north got itBut instead i changes back to grey (default color, all start grey to begin with). I don't and can't seem to figure this out

Has anyone found that since Flash 11 plug-in with hardware acceleration the video movie clips seem to fall apart? I see quality loss both in hardware acceleration and without in all my clips since this upgrade. Before that the movies were fine! Also I have installed a new Nvidia driver, do you think this is a issue?
I think Flash enables hardware acceleration in in-page video movies as well as full-screen mode.
Do I have to redo all my video clips now or am I just confused?
