View 2 RepliesI am creating my first flash website and have hit a wall, i have four buttons"HOME, ABOUT, PORTFOLIO, CONTACT" and each button plays through the same movie clip from different points. ie the labels.
"HOME" being the first part of the movie and "CONTACT" being the last section with "ABOUT & PORTFOLIO" playing the sections inbetween.
but what i am trying to do is make it so that when i am at the home section and click "CONTACT..etc." i want the movie clip to play all the way through the about & portfolio sections to get there, and back again if i click one of the others*(from contact to the about, home or portfolio section)
I'm trying to make a player with EQ, get the data in the Sound object, but for some reason with the desired point to play it I can not play it right from the start of the track.
_out_snd.addEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA, processSound);
_channel = _out_snd.play(pos);
function processSound(event:SampleDataEvent):void {
_samples = new ByteArray();
var len:Number = buf[trackDesc].sound.extract(_samples, BUFFER_SIZE);

Im trying to make a FLV cue point pause the FLV and also pause the entire timelines inside the swf. Then everything would continue playing when the user would click a "continue" button.
Basically I have a flash presentation that load an external FLV and a bunch of graphics that go with the video. At one point I need everything to pause so a small flash game can come in and the user can play it and then when they are ready to move on they can click "continue" and the FLV would continue where it left off along with the rest of the timeline.
if i click 'Play' Button video playing normally, after i click 'Pause' button video pause, next i click 'Play' Button video playing from starting point. what is the problem
solution pls...... Code:

View 3 RepliesI'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.

View 2 RepliesIs it possible to zip/compress assets files into binary or .bin format through Actionscript or AIR? The compressed file will be in binary and can only be read by Actionscript which then parses the file.
Right now I am only able to read/write zip files using nochump's amazing library. I tried using AIR to write the bytes to disk and save it as filename.bin but I am still able to read filename.bin using 7-zip.
The objective is to protect my asset files as much as possible. Are there any other ways?
i'm a novice to ActionScript but from failed Google function searches, i think i've choosen an advanced i hope possible task: how to read then apply bezier, anchor point and handle positions to different anchor points. What i need to do is precisely align a rectangular closed bezier path with a randomly shaped closed bezier path, both with the same number of anchor points.
View 9 Repliesis there a way to have flash read swf from a directory dynamicaly. so if you add a new one it reads it and you could have a next and previouse button to dynamicly browse throught them.
this way you could just upload new swf and it would automaticaly add it to the set so when you hit next at the end it would read the new one.
I am trying to create .txt file dynamically from a Flash projector exe on to the local system for a game, Wherein the score and the players name should be stored.I have tried using the Loadvariable POST method to no avail.
View 1 Repliesuse loadVars to read variables from .txt files on a different server with flash, do any of you know because I'm getting really annoyed?
View 14 RepliesI'm thinking about making a game that would have 3 "save slots", so you could play the game and then load the game later. If you were to save the game, basically flash would store a list of variable values into a text file.
Let's say I have game.swf in a folder named MyGame.Also in that folder I'll have save1.txt, save2.txt, and save3.txt. If I'm loading a game, I'd want Flash to open that txt file, read the values, and then set the variables equal to that in the text file. So if you open save1.txt and you see a=1, b=3, and c=2, I'd want flash to then take those values and set it's own same variable a = 1, b = 3, and c = 2.
On the other hand, if you're saving a game, let's say a=10, b=10, and c=10, I'd like it for flash to open save1.txt and replace the text there with a list of the current variables.Flash would need to do one more thing... if for some reason the file were deleted, Flash would need to create a new txt file. If the txt file is missing, you couldn't load, but if you're trying to save to save1.txt and that file doesn't exist, I'd need flash to create a new save1.txt and then put the variables into it.
I would like to read the source of the flash.net.FileReference class. Is this possible?Where can I find the source files, do the come with the Adobe Flash or Flash Builder?

I would like to know whether swf files can play in an FLV Player or not. If not possible, is there any option for developing an independent swf player. the technique that can be used to develop swf player.
View 5 RepliesBefore I start off; I'm not a pro at Flash at all.
Folder structure:
start.swf
assets/moviecontainer.swf
assets/flv/movie.flv
What I want is to open start.swf, have it embed moviecontainer.swf which has a FLV playback object that loads in the movie.flv. When I check my moviecontainer.swf, it runs properly. But when I use start.swf it loads moviecontainer.swf (because I can see it has the background and all) but the movie won't play (and I think the buttons don't work anymore)
I have saved both .swfs with the "Local files only" option. I have no idea what the problem can be, as I said, I'm no Flash pro and I have no experience as to say "oh it looks like we got that xyz problem.."
I just upgraded to Flash cs5 from studioMX and find that cs5 won't play swf's from my old files properly.Does anyone have a fix or work around. I downloaded the lastest upgrade from Adobe's site and it still isn't working.
View 2 RepliesI have 15 movie clips that play one at a time. When the first one calls the second movie clip there is a short space (black screen) between the two which I have to eliminate. I tried loading the second one half way thru the first movie then tell it to play when the first movie is over, but when I do that you can see a disturbance in the first movies performance when the second one is pre-loaded. Is there a way around this so I can make 15 movies run seamlessly? They are separate .swf files!
View 1 RepliesOk so I have a flash banner I am working on. It is basically 3 flv files. 1 for the main content, and 2 for the background.
What I want to do is load in the first flv for the background, as soon as it is done playing I want to play the second flv, Then once the second flv is finished playing I want it to loop continuously.
The main content flv will then be layed overtop of this and play through once and stop while the background continues to loop.[code]...
I am developing a VB.NET Windows application that plays SWF and FLV files in popup windows.
The user presses a button on the main application form, a window pops up, and the Flash media will then play (in theory).
I was successful in getting SWF files to play. First, I added the Shockwave Flash Object AciveX control to my toolbox (VB.NET named it AxShockwaveFlash1), and then double clicked it to add it to my popup form. Then, in the startup routine for my popup, I added the following lines to play my SWF:
AxShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "path/filename.swf"
AxShockwaveFlash1.Play()
I attempted exactly the same approach using a separate form for an FLV file, this time of course setting the Movie property of the Shockwave Flash Object to "path/filename.flv". In this case, the FLV file did not play. There were no error messages, but just a popup screen with nothing on it.
I have three flv files that I need to play sequentially, one right after the other in the same location (box) in an html document. I have segmented the video because of it's size. Does any one know how I would make this happen or where I can find some sort of tutorial that can assist me with this? I also have another project in which I have 4 animations that I want to play in sequence but they are in different locations on the web page.
View 1 RepliesI've made several FLV files and they all pause while playing. A 3 minute video 640x360, 37MB will pause 4 times. If I open the page and let it sit about 3 minutes before playing the video, then it will play smoothly but since no one will ever do that I must resolve the issue. Also, once it plays all the way through, then it will play smoothly, but again, I need it to play smoothly the first time someone clicks on it.[URL]..
View 7 RepliesI want a swf file that will play other swf files one after the other. They are swf, not video files, as I need to change everything on the page when the video stops playing. So, one swf opens with a custom page - plays a video - and then the next swf will open and do the same thing. There's much talk about 'typing stop(); on the last frame of a video" - As far as I can see - everything is automatically sitting on a single frame in Flash - whether it's scene 1, or I open the movie file - the movie is all playing in one frame. If try to simple put different material on a second frame, it loops back and forth between one frame of each movie (it will change the background, and video - but I get only ONE frame of each movie - not the full movie before switching).
View 9 RepliesI am doing a mobile application using air and as3.0. And I am using two databases - one is mysql for online data access and another one is sqlite3 for local data access. Once I download a song from server database, it should store in ApplicationStorageDirectory in the folder named "tracks". All the songs are in mp3 format. Finally my question is... How can I save mp3 files in ApplicationStorageDirectory and How can I play those files by referring to the ApplicationStorageDirectory path?
