I have a loader using the following [code]...
But when the loader reaches about 40 to 50 % the movie starts to play without the loader reaching 100%.
All the code is done in frame1 in the Loader.swf
I'm using the same code I always use for preloading another swf but it's not working this time. The problem this time is that when the loading bar gets to 16% every time you can hear the movie I'm loading playing in the background. I can just add a stop to the first frame of the movie I'm loading ("trial_1.swf") but how do I tell it to go to the second frame once it has loaded?
Here's my code:
var myrequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest ("trial_1.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);

i am loading some external swfs with the bulkloader. The strange thing, they start playing in the background ( i can hear the sound) without even having added them to the stage.
Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
public function init():void
{
bLoader = new BulkLoader("bLoader");
[Code].....
I tried to implement a simple preloader for an existing swf movie. I've created a new flash document and added the Loader as well as a ProgressBar component. In the action script of the key frame 1, I implemented the following:
import mx.controls.ProgressBar;loader.contentPath = "myMovie.swf"; pBar.setStyle("themeColor", "0xF49417");pBar.setStyle("color","0x3D566F"); pBar.labelPlacement = "bottom"; pBar.label = "LOADING %3%%"pBar.scaleY = 150; pBar.conversion = 1024; pBar.source = loader; pBar.mode = "polled"; loader.load();
The problem is now that the movie starts playing (i.e. its sound) before the progress bar is completely finished. This usually happens around 80%. How can I avoid that the movie starts before the progress bar reaches 100%?
i want to know if its possible to play a .swf movie (other than running the exe) on a pc that hasn't got Macromedia flash installed on it.
View 1 RepliesI wanted to make play button. Kind of this huge one in the middle of the screen as users used to see on YouTube.Here is the code for it which seems to work:
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_Play);function onClick_Play(event:MouseEvent) :void {
SWF_flv2.play();

The movie clip is an actionscript movie which calls images from an external XML file and shows them as a slideshow. What i need to do is after the last image plays, stop the movie and move the main timeline to the next scene of the main movie. Everything logical in my brain is not working, and it may be that I have been staring at this project for too long but for the life of me i can't make this work.
View 11 RepliesIs it possible to set a listener or something like it to run a function once the flash movie itself has finished loading?So something like:When this flash movie has finished loading, activate function.Btw. I'm not trying to do this with a swf file loaded into another flash movie. I need this to be done by the movie once it self has finished loading.
View 1 RepliesI can't believe how impossible it has been to find info about this. I'm sort of a beginner with actionscript, but this shouldn't be as hard as I'm finding it to be.
I'm using AS2. I have an ordinary FLV video playing with one of the skins that comes with the Flash software (CS3). That all works perfectly fine. What I need to do, however, is add a large "PLAY" button over top of the movie. I have made that work also. But, I need the button to disappear when the movie starts playing, because it is obviously in the way and making it hard to view the video.
Some forums suggested making that button disappear when it is clicked. That would be fine, except that the video player skin also has a play button, and if someone clicks that button instead of my new large button, I still need the large button to disappear.
So what I'm trying to figure out how to do is something like: if the FLV is playing, make this object (the button) disappear or become invisible. This can't be that difficult!
well, I got this for my Play/Pause button (on stage):
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
btn_play.onPress = function(){

I have a movieclip clip that plays when the movie starts, the movieclip is a visual assets that show's that the application is loading some information but it's not showing any loading progress, just playing while the assets are loaded.I created a for loop that will load the assets using a simple loader, and then when the object is loaded the application push the object to an array.Problem is that when the loading starts all the animation that i have on screen stops until the loading is finished.The whole point is that the animation will play while it's loading.

View 1 RepliesThe problem I have is that I have created a Movie clip of an animated logo. The timeline within the movieclip contains 163 frames.
I have placed the movie clip on the main timeline at frame 1. What I would like to happen is the movie clip to the play all the way through and then move to the next frame (frame 2) of the main timeline to continue the animation. the next frame has a frame label, named 'main'. I have split the timeline up into sections as I am created a webpage.
There must be a pretty straight forward Actionscript code to do this, I have come across some things but they dont seem to make much sense to me. I am pretty good at the drawing and animation side of things in flash but I complete newbie when it comes to the Actionscript code.
My Challenge is this...To feed up to 5 video references (filepaths) into the SWF which contains the FLVPlayBack component, and have these play in sequence automatically.
Once the first video ends, the next begins...Currently our FLV player takes 1 filepath passed by FlashVars and play it.
First things first... I just want to get the function of having one .flv file play after the first has finsihed... do I need some kind of listener?
I am just toying around making an mp3 player and came to a problem. I've got everything to work just fine... but I don't know how to get the player to recognize that the current track is finished and get it to get the next track... how can this be done?
View 4 Replies I have a simple Flash-player button (toggle play/stop) that plays MP3s. When I press play the MP3 starts and the button changes to stop. When I press again the music stops and the stop-button changes to play. I have several player-buttons on my page. How do I stop all sounds when I press play on one of the buttons? As of now, I can start several MP3 at the same time and I don't want that. I've tried this:
Code:
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
SoundMixer.stopAll();
But it doesn't work out. Do I need to number the players somehow?
Also, when the MP3 has finished playing it should turn into a play button. As of right now it's a stop-button when it's finished playing. How do I change it to a play-button? This is the Actionscript 3 code:
var flashVars=this.root.loaderInfo.parameters;
var loadSnd:URLRequest = new URLRequest(flashVars.myVar);
var thisSnd:Sound = new Sound();
var sndTrans: SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
thisSnd.load(loadSnd);

I wanted to make a preloader do something else besides just fill a bar. I wanted to make a movie clip play during loading, but I also wanted it to play and finish in time with the loading. For instance, if I created a movie clip of a boat slowly filling with water, and it was the preloader, my movie would load as the boat filled and when the boat was full the movie would be ready. The water fills as fast as the movie loads.
View 6 RepliesThe Flash file loads, but the contents of that file aren't loading by some browsers. Primarily seems to be an issue with Safari, Chrome, and FireFox, mostly on macs.
The browser simply stops loading the file after it starts, and it is then left blank. How can I troubleshoot this, or has anyone experienced the same problem? Site uses crossdomain rules, but Ive tested both without crossdomain rules and on the same domain. Same Issue.
This is the set up so far. Loader1, is playing till home.swf is loaded. I am using the loadClip function for it. onLoadProgress plays the first bit of Loader1.
What I want to do is within onLoadInit() = function(_mc:MovieClip) {
root.ldr1.addEventListener("played", function() {_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);}); // add listener to Loader 1
_mc.stop();
[Code]....
The problem is that it is not playing the function. Also _mc.stop(); is not stopping the loaded file. It keeps playing, though _mc._alpha is working fine.
How can I make sure the event is being dispatched?? Home.swf ( the _mc being loaded), is within a separate movieclip, over the loader.
I have set up a nice video site for a client. I have a sub menu where you can select swf files. Each swf has an FLV attatched to it. I prefered this method over XML for various reasons.In any case I would like after the swf has loaded, and the flv COMPLETES the entire movie, to automatically go to the next swf file and start that flv. I've tried many codes with no luck.
View 2 RepliesThe following code loades text into a textfield the problem I'm having is the routine at the bottom runs before the text loads and the scrollbar disappears even when there's enough text to overflow the textfield. How would I make sure the text has finished loading before running the code that enables/disables the scrollbar?
mainText.htmlText = main[1];textFieldLength = mainText.text.length; if(mainText.length > textFieldLength){ mainScroll._visible = true; }else{ mainScroll._visible = false; }
I am using the a menu like the attached. My question is: How can I make a SWF to load only after the movement of the buttons is finished?
