Im having issues with the loading external video method in acitonscript 3.0 book by todd perkin. The issue is about the lesson on page 308 in ch 11.
[Code]...
This is the only thing that crashing my site. The load external video methods nice but if I cant make practical use of it, its useless. Any actionscript gurus out there know a solution to fix this problem?
i just need to know about loading external sxf into an existing flash site. i used the load external code. but i just want to know about the link . how must i be. the example it like so

Basically I'm trying to come up with how to load an external movie located in the same folder as the flash file at various points of an SWF, but I'm not sure if this can be done.I've managed to load it using the following code (at frame 203 for example),
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
var connection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
var stream:NetStream;
var video:Video = new Video(1280,720);
var metaObj:Object = new Object();
[code]....
- The problem with this is unless i put stop(); in the Script it keeps repeating the swf from the start.Is there a way I can load this movie, stop the swf then continue the swf from that point after the movie has finished?
Ok what i have is a site made from 1 flash file where i am loading external swf files for my picture galleries. now what is happening is in Flash, dreamweaver and when i test the site, everything is working perfectly, the problem is coming when i go into internet explorer go to the site and click on the flash button to go to the picture gallery, that is when it is giving me a Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed.

I need to load a swf file, which is video player and video. The swf loads but the video contained in it does not play and the video controls are dead too. What do I need to do to load a swf containing a flv video so the video plays?

I have a number off video tutorials that i want to play on my computer from a CD disc. I've make tree style menu on one page with links like
Code: Select all<a href="videoplayer.html?f=file1.swf" target="_blank">File1</a>
This opens up the page with with my video player embedded in it. The player is just a simple one that I make using Adobe Flash CS4, at the moment it's just a stage with the video holder(named Movie_mc) on it. Once I sort out how to play different files I'll add all the controls. I've been trying to work out how to the the player what file to play, I've read so much that my brain has burnt out. My latest try was try to use the following
Code: Select all<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
var moviefile = new Object();
var queryString = getQueryString();
if(queryString['f']){

I have built a page in dreamweaver. everything is showing up as it should, but I currently have 3 problems
1. I have a .flv loaded into a flash file and that .swf loaded into my dreamweaver file. It shows up when I preview the file in dreamweaver but not when I load the file. Why does it not show up when I push the site live? I have all of the assets loaded.
2. I have created a .swf that loads images externally. The .swf shows when I load it, but the external imagery are not showing up when I push the page live.
3. I have all of my links set to one color, but for some reason they are all showing up blue.
In Flash MX 2004 Pro. I have embedded the video in which needs to load several external FLV files. These are the problems.
1. How do I stop the video and it removed (with the shutdown sound)
2. How do I upload another FLV file in the same embedded video (I have separate buttons for each FLV file) and also remove previous FLV file
This is the code that I use:
my_nc = new NetConnection();
my_nc.connect(null);
my_ns = new NetStream(my_nc);

I'm having some resizing/full-screen difficulty with loading an external quiz swf into a video player swf. What's happening is that, when the quiz swf is first loaded into the video player, the size of the loaded swf has the correct dimensions and aspect ratio. That part is fine, but as soon as I try to fullscreen or resize the video player (using listeners with stage dimensions) the external quiz swf changes dimensions on me and looks vertically squished and smaller.
I've talked to other people about this issue, and they're telling me that this issue is occuring because the quiz swf contains elements outside of the stage. These hidden elements are supposedly giving the video player "incorrect" dimensions. Is this really the case? Is there any other solution other than fitting any hidden elements within the quiz swf within the stage? And if this is the only solution, then why on initial load does the quiz swf show up properly?
I have been using Flash with actionscript 2.0 and I barely understand that...(actionscript 2.0). Now I am building a site in 2.0, and I need to add a video to the home page.The only way I have found is in actionscript 3.0.I made a separate swv file for the video as per the instructions I found online.It works but my site will not open it, ...probably because the site is in 2.0.My question is this: a:is there code to play the hd video in my 2.0 site? or b: do I need to redesign the entire site in 3.0?

View 9 RepliesSo I am relatively new to Flash and After Affects but I managed to make a nice video with Adobe After Effects that my friend wanted to put on his site. After I was done rendering it I used Adobe Media Encoder to make the .avi file into a .f4v file for flash. After opening that flash file with Flash i exported it out into a .swf file. When I opened the .swf it played perfectly, just the way it should. I edited my index.html with Dreamweaver and the coding and everything seemed fine. After previewing the index.html with my browser and Dreamweaver's Live View I was quite satisfied with my results. When I uploaded the files onto my site the flash did not play. It plays locally on my PC but not on the site. I later asked a few more experienced buddies what was wrong and they confirmed that they weren't able to play the file locally nor from the site. At first I thought I may have mixed up the links but they were fine. Here is the code I used for my index.html page.

How do I embed a Vimeo video in a Flash AS2 site?
View 1 RepliesLooking for a component which can be embedded inside my site (PHP, ASP.NET...whatever) and give a support for video chat. I'm not a flex developer and would like to use a component. There are some/many video chats available, like flashcoms, red5chat...but all of those are heavy(monolit) components.
What I would like to have on my site is just a small video showing output from my camera (me) and another video showing the other party...but those videos should be split, not in the same flash component, but separate (two different EMBED tags on my page).
Are there any components available to do that (of course with support from appropriate media server)? Are there any good guides on how to develop such a component?

View 2 RepliesI need to have 4 external links going into my my flash site, seperat frames. It kind of works when using anchors in my "main.swf", and not load the "main.swf" using the loader component, but then all by itself the "main.swf" starts to jump between the 4 different anchors. When I load the "main.swf" using the loader component, nothing happens, and I feel I need to have the loader component aswell. I have tried to put the anchors in seperat frames in the "main.swf" aswll as in the "loader.swf".
This is how my site is build:
index.htm (with the html anchor codes needed) with the loader component "myLoader" in the index.htm loading the "main.swf".

View 7 RepliesI have a lot of questions about how to optimally load my newly created flash site (very large file size). I have created an entire site in Flash (one swf). It will take quite some time to load on smaller bandwidths, so I am wondering: Is there a way to have the main movie clip load, with the others loading in the background, instead of the user having to wait for the entire site to load.
Also, if I add a preloader to the entire swf, how can I get the flash movie to start before it reaches 100%? If not, is there a way to add preloaders to individual movie clips within the site. If not, how can I quickly break my fla apart and make my movie clips into separate swfs. After this, how do I add preloaders to those? Any general tips to greatly reduce fla or swf file sizes?
