ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Video Players - Create New Instances Only?
Aug 1, 2010
I want to have a number of scenes with video players on each. Pasting means I get problems with duplicative functions. I am okay with creating new instances, but still run into duplicative functions (like onMetaData) I just can't seem to get around. Is there an elegant way of telling flash at the beginning to create all new nc, ns, etc?
Below is partial code (the part that is the problem).
// Video setup
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onStatus);

I have a web site that displays a column of flash videos. The page is w3c-valid. The problem is that the page loads very slowly and sometimes crashes my web browser. Until the page is fully loaded, the videos are slow to respond and play. Is there a way to make these videos load their preview images only? What should I do to speed the page up? The videos are 360x264.

I'm running into a roadblock with creating multiple instances of a movie clip. I'm trying to display a series of boxes across the bottom of the stage. The number of boxes are determined by _global.maxStep[_global.sectionNum]. I have a movie clip called StepBox that will serve as the template for each box. In the StepBox movie clip is a dynamic text box called stepNumText, which I want to set to the value of the counter. The problem I have is that I've only ever used attachMovie, but there is no movie for it to attach to. I tried using Content since that's the name of the layer this is in, but I know that doesn't make sense (and it doesn't work).
Code:
_global.updateBoxes = function() {
var curr_box;
for (i = 1; i <= _global.maxStep[_global.sectionNum]; i++) {[code].....

I'd like to create a chain of objects (either movie clips or sprites) that move left to right across the stage continuously. I know I can create two movie clips that contain a series of several 'chain links' and are each a little wider than the stage width. Then I can move both clips across the stage and when the first movie clip is completely off stage reset its x position back to 0. Likewise, when the second clip is completely off the stage on the right, reset it's position off the stage to the left.
This works and gives me the basic effect that I want by creating this uninterrupted moving chain, but it doesn't seem like its the most efficient way to achieve this. What I thought would be more efficient would be to create each link in the chain separately from an individual mc in my library by programmatically adding new instances to the stage.So, I created a single chain link mc and set its export linkage to 'Link' and left the base class to flash.display.MovieClip. Next, I placed the following snippet of the code on the first frame of my movie:
Code:
var xPos:int = 0;
var yPos:int = 100;

I'm modifying a flash slideshow (actually the one from kirupa.com) and among other things, I'm trying to get it to generate small LEDs depending on the number of images the script finds in the xml file. I intend to make them light up depending on the image currently up (i.e. image #5 lights up led #5) and allow users to click on the LEDs to jump around between images.
The problem I'm having now is that I can't get the file to generate more than one LED at a time. In fact, it seems to only generate the last LED needed and places it in the final LED position. My only real guess at this point is either I'm not indicating a new depth properly, or I'm creating the new movieclip over and over again but not actually creating a duplicate of it, or something like that.[code]...

I am creating multiple bitmaps within a loop, and placing them inside their own MovieClip. I then have another MovieClip in the Library which I am calling and putting inside the MovieClip generated for the bitmap. Alas I cannot get multiple instances to work of the MovieClip from the Library. I think it must be my syntax in the following code..
Code:
for(i=0;i<10;i++){
this['bmp'+i] = new BitmapData(etc,etc)
this['box'+i] = new Bitmap( this['bmp'+i] );

I have created a movie clip which contains a button and a dynamic text field, instance name "anwTxt". In the dynamic text field I entered just the word "field" and set the the following in the properties window: multiline=true, wordwrap=true, font=16, font color=white.I then dynamically create multiple instances of this movie clip at run time, populating the text field from the contents of a user defined array. However if the text inserted from the array is to long it is simply cut off, instead of continuing on to a new line. Does anyone know why the field will not generate new lines, or have another solution to this issue?
Supporting info:
Code: Comments to explain
//inside a for loop[code]....
Using "holder2.anwTxt.multiline = true;" has no affect. If I attempt to alter the height or width of the textfield (ie.holder2. anwTxt. height = 400 I recieve the error "thats a read only property"

click btSpawnAdd 1 mcObject to the stage, with a limit of 5 maximum of that objectclick btDestroyRemove 1 mcObject from the stage until all are goneI assume you'd use classes and arrays to get this done? I've managed to get a button creating objects onto the stage by doing that, but I can't figure out how to set a maximum.The end goal is to create drag & drop objects by clicking a button, and then being able to drag those objects onto a "recycle bin" to remove one.

Internet Explorer will not display flash video in stand alone video players, similar to the one at: [URL] The other embedded flash content is viewable.In the IE8 tools, manage add on's, Adobe Flash Player is not listed.I've also noticed that when I access the Adobe Flash Settings manager, I can not uncheck "hardware acceleration".Windows XP Home Service Pack 2 is the operating system.

How many instances of Video, NetStream and NetConnection would be needed for multiple videos?Not sure that's the right question but essentially here's the objective:Currently, I'm working on an interactive product tour, parts of which are to consist of short video clips, each covering a feature. While only one such clip will be playing at any given time, I'd like put them all at the application's fingertips as part of the initial preloading process before launching into it. The idea is to provide a seamless instant-play user experience without hitting the breaks before individual segments.Honestly, I hate pre-caching crap into user's memory, especially when some of that content may be potentially ignored. However, given the target audience, it is reasonable to predict that all features will be explored most of the time, so it's a fair compromise to me. Besides, I went to great lengths to keep the mp4s' sizes to the minimum.Anyway, I'm guessing you don't really need more than one instance of the Video class but how many NetStreams and NetConnections do I you need, probably one of each per video, ha?

I am currently working on a project that i need to have multiple flv players all displaying the same video simultaneously. I noticed that this causes a delay on the webpage when loading and the video doesnt start simultaneously for each player, so i guess the same video is loaded over and over again. Is there a workaround to that so i can load the video once and play it on the 3 players simultaneously??
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc); var ns2:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);var ns3:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

I'd like to use the same music player displayed multiple times on the same page, one for each song. But when songs are played, I want the existing play to stop. For example:
song1
song2
song3
I click to play song1, while it's playing, I decide to play song3 instead. Based on the default setup, song3 will start playing while song1 continues to play. I'd like song1 to stop when song3 starts.

I am trying to embed audio players in a drop-down content tooltip. I will eventually have lots of these on a page.My problem is this:When I close the div the sound continues to playI can also make them play at the same time.I would like them to autostart when you open the div, but when I do that they both start at once before you've even activated the drop-down content. I would rather not do the whole site in flash.

I have a flash player that plays an MP3 from my website. On one of my pages i have around 20 of these flash players embeded on the website. i've seen on other websites so when the user presses the play on flash player #1 and then while that's playing, they press play on flash player #2, it would first pause and stop flash player #1 and then start flash player #2 and so on.

I am working on a project where i need to support multiple players and platforms to play videos. Major Platforms will be: Windows PC,Mac PC,Apple Devices and Android. This is the precedence i will be following. First it will check browser support for Silverlight 3 or later then Flash then HTML5. If not any one of them is supported user will be asked to installed Silverlight. I wanted to know which pattern and strategy i should use in order to support this functionality. Currently i have investigated about some javascript api that can do this detection on client side easily and load the player appropriately.. but as many of browser could be without javascript support so this method will fails to play videos. Is there any way I can do this detection on server side and inject proper Player HTML on client end?

I am working with the open source flash player at [URL].. and I am trying to figure out how to limit one sound file at a time. I know this has been done on a number of sites but I am unsure how to approach it.
Scenario: A page has five different instances of the flash player. The user is litening to one song but clicks on another to listen to it.Goal: The first audio file automatically stops while the second starts playing instead of both playing at the same time.
Do I need to have some sort of javascript handler than interacts with the swf or something?

Apparently Adobe added more features in flash video with each successive flash version, so earlier versions of flash video are only compatible with the same earlier version of the flash player. I'm trying to find out which video features are compatible with each of the flash players. This is because I want to create video for the lowest possible version of the flash player, so more people will be able to view it.

Ok so here is my XML slideshow Actionscript:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
var xmlRequest:URLRequest= new URLRequest("graphicImages.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlRequest);
[Code]....
So I figured that the coding of separate scenes would work independently of one another, but I guess I was dead wrong, because when I apply this to a different scene and change the XML path for a different set of images, I get all sorts of conflict errors when I test the entire movie. I have my flash film set up so that each link send the user to a different scene, which plays a unique intro for each, and then the slideshow appears on screen and the viewer can navigate the images.
Is there a work around for this? Or am I going to have to break my flash movie into separate movies? Or should I just add a suffix to all my vars and functions so that they are unique for each scene?

As you can see, after all the items in the Carousel have loaded, a function called fadeItemIn() is called which displays each of them one by one. I am looking to call a small "swoosh" particle effect flv I made in AfterEffects so that as each item tweens in, it instead looks like it is sparkling in from the left.
The problem I have is that using the code below, the swoosh.flv file tends to freeze before it finishes. In this case the swooshIn() function is called three times because there are three items being loaded into the Carousel.
I am wondering why the FLV freezes when multiple instances of it are loaded through AS3 using NetStream.
Code:
private function fadeItemIn(item:CarouselItem):void {
trace("fadeItemIn");
this.tweens.push(new Tween(item, "altitude", Regular.easeOut, item.altitude, 2.5, 0.50, true));

I have a Hero that can shoot bullets. I can get him to shoot multiple bullets, all with equal velocity. The bullets are supposed to be peas from a pea shooter, so I want to apply friction and gravity to them so they slow down and fall. I'd also like them to bounce of objects too.At the moment I'm just applying friction, so the peas should be shot forward, and then gradually come to a halt in the air. The problem I'm having is that if I apply friction to one pea, it generates the next one at the velocity that the 1st one is currently at - that is, the second pea starts out slow, and stops very quickly. The 3rd one is generated not moving.
How can I set the velocity to reset for each pea, so they all start out equal? They all move with the same properties, so I want to deal with them all in one arrray/loop. Is this possible?I have posted the basic structure without any velocity or anything specified because I'm not sure where everything should go. If I specify a starting velocity in the document class and then use the for loop to apply friction, it changes the velocity of every pea. The Pea class just contains functions to draw the pea.
Code:
public function bullets(event:Event):void {
if (s==20 && PandaHero.currentFrame==13) {
