ActionScript 3.0 :: Making 'percent Loaded' Estimate For A Video?
Dec 6, 2011
For my FLVPlayBack player, I want a "% loaded" message before the video begins, which counts upwards.This wouldn't be a problem if this was just the usual bytesTotal/bytesLoaded calculation, but this is a progressive video that plays with playWhenEnoughDownloaded(). In other words, I'm not counting up to when the entire video has loaded, but to when the video is going to start, based on playWhenEnoughDownloaded().

I've created a preloader in which an object moves along a curve. I want this object to move as the percentage increases, much like a loading bar would increase as the percent loaded goes up. right now my object moves over 3 seconds and not percentage.[code]...

Is there a way to make a if statement that only loads like 20% then it plays. I always used things that wait for the whole movie to be loaded. I just want to give a head start of 20% to the movie.

I`m making a preloader and everything seems to go ok, except that i want to show how much percent of the movie`s been loaded (basing on the Bytes not the frames), but i havent find the way to do it
Note; i made 200 layers, each two has a number from 0 to 1oo,and the actions to check and if not yet go back and check again. An if statement that goes like this
loadpercent = getBytesLoaded()/getBytesTotal()*100;
if (loadpercent != 1) {
gotoAndPlay(2); //on this frame is an action to go back and check//

im trying to make a pre-loader, that based on the percent loaded, displays text. So at 5% it says "loading" and at 10% "still loading" , etc. Im guessing there is a way to say percenttotal=5, entertext=still loading target=instancenameoftextbox I've gotten the loader tutorial on the site here to work, i just want to add this to it.

I can make a normal preloader, with a bar and percent shown and so on... But I want to make a little thing in the middle of the preloader that rotates faster and faster when the percent loaded goes up. This is what I thought would work:

i have built a .flv video player and its working just fine but when it loads videos they start off stopped with a play button overlay so it has to be user initiated to start. Only problem is when they are paused at the beginning of the stream they are invisible. I have tried several things to make the video appear at the beginning but nothing works.
i have tried explicitally setting the visible and alpha props. they dont do anythign (the vid is already visible and alpha = 1 according to traces) i have tried seek(0.1) to seek ahead a bit - this doesn't work at all. tried playing and pausing the stream but that no workey either.

I am trying to make a gallery where I have index.swf call it (1) (main page) that loads gallery.swf call it (2) (by using a movie clip 'loader'). The gallery is width 2000 and scrolls when the mouse moves. When I click on one of the gallery photos, I want it to open up large but not scroll like the rest of the gallery. It is easiest to achieve if (2) asks (1) to open it in another 'loader'.Does such a function call (or something like that) exist?
Also - are these words used correctly: "(2) is the child while (1) is the parent" (or are those two words used only for objects inside the script?

I am using MovieClipLoader(); to load a SWF on to the stage like this.
var myMCL = new MovieClipLoader();
myMCL.loadClip("swf/button1.swf","mcButton");
Now I want to make the loaded SWF clickable so I have added the following code:
mcButton.onRelease = function() {
trace("Hello World");
};
I thought that would work but it doesn't.

I'm working on a Flash video slideshow (which you can preview here). I would like to be able to make it so you can click a button (I've got one made in the doc already) that will make just the video on each "slide" go full screen, similar to how you can do so with other videos on sites like YouTube and others.
While what I've linked to above is just a template I'm messing with, I'd like to be able to have a video on the right, let's say, with text on the left, and then be able to click a button (perhaps under the video that says "full screen) and have the video that is there fill the whole window and play.

I'm using MovieClipLoader to load in external swfs so that I don't need to include a preloader on each one. I'm really unfamiliar with this technique, including how to use and implement listeners and follow the functionality after using it, I've just been playing with borowed code.basically i've been trying to use this code:
Code:
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(this);

I have my main menu movieclip placed on the main stages and I use it to load some external swfs. However when I load them, the menu disappears because it is covered by the loaded swf. How can I set the depth of my top menu so that will always be visible when the external swfs are loaded? Should the depth be set on the main time line or inside the main manu movie clip? This is the code in my main menu that I am using to load the swfs but my main menu is a movie clip placed on the main timeline...
Code:
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/welcome.swf");
loader.load(defaultSWF);
stage.addChild(loader);

In my current project I need to create a bitmap from the last frame of a video. For this I use:
Code:
var _vidBitmapData = new BitmapData(video.width, video.height, false, 0x0000ff);
_vidBitmapData.draw(video);
var bmp:Bitmap=new Bitmap(_vidBitmapData)
This works like a fairy in wonderland if I create the video with dimensions matching the stream:
Like
Code:
video =new Video(1280,800)
However, when I change the Video's size on receiving the onMetaData Event according to the actual streams width and height properties, the capture i get from _vidBitmapData.draw is still in the dimensions of how I created the Video. So if I do
Code:
video =new Video(10,10)
and then
private function onMetaData(metadata:Object):void {
video.width=metadata.width;
video.height=metadata.height;
}
I get a nice display of the video.
However when doing the
Code:
var _vidBitmapData = new BitmapData(video.width, video.height, false, 0x0000ff);
_vidBitmapData.draw(video);
var bmp:Bitmap=new Bitmap(_vidBitmapData)
I get a 10 x10 px image....

I'm just trying to make it so the video in my swf (the flv) does not immediately play when a web page opens. I have: imported the .mov into flash, creating a flv file
given it a skin converted it to a symbol (Movie Clip)
given it an instance name of movie_Clip
created an actionscript layer with the simple code of: movie_Clip.stop();
Shouldn't the clip be stopped upon opening the SWF file? How can I make it be stopped?

I have cs4 web premium which doesn't include aftereffects. I need to however make a green/blue backgrounded video transparent (alpha channel, if I got it right) to be used by flash/as3. I'm not sure if I can use either firework or illustrator do the job? another question is, for a short movie clip, which tool can be used to edit the movie frame to turn the non-green/blue clored backgroud into green (then adding alpha channel...)

I'm wanting to build a project, it's an online video creation software in Flash so people could upload some music, choose videos from a library, edit the whole thing and export and download a movie in the end. I've seen websites like www.Animoto.com close to what I want to do but I can't find how it's made and I'd like to make it a little more advanced when it come to editing.

I want to make an instructional video with various panning, cursor movements, and info box popups. I'm going to attempt to do this video in all actionscript and expect to use the Timer class and Tweener for all the tweening. What's the best way of approaching a project like this? Can Tweener be stopped in between its tween in order to pause?
