ActionScript 3.0 :: Publishing In Flash Player 9 Vs Flash Player 10
Apr 27, 2010
I'm building a portfolio site. I have buttons to go to previous/next frames and I have all the buttons on the timeline. Each instance is properly labeled and referenced in the actionscript. I get no errors when I publish in 9, but when published in 10 I get:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I'm not sure why this is happening because there isn't a null reference in my mind. The button which I reference in the code is on that exact same frame. I think the error is that it's looking for the button from the previous frame, which puzzles me because I've moved on to the next frame and I don't know why it'd be trying to reference that. Anyone know of DisplayObject differences from 9 to 10 that would be causing me these troubles?

I've been working on an xml gallery. The website scales according to the browser window. Some of my work is fine lineart and any scaling seems to cause a lot of aliasing. If I publish it with Flash Player 7 the scaling is fine.This may sound like a naive question but what are the cons with publishing a portfolio with an older Flash Player?

In order to meet the largest penetration of users with a flash player downloaded onto their machines, I have been tasked to Publish with Version 6 settings. However, I am creating my movies in Flash 8.
Are there any known draw backs to publishing with Version settings later than the Flash you are building in?
I.E. Component failure? Visual Quality? AS 1.0 v AS 2.0?

I want to use getUrl to display a javascript alert. I've found an example that works perfectly, by using getUrl("javascript:alert('hello world')"); But that example is published for Flash Player 6, and the rest of my movie requires FP8. And if I go to publish settings, and select Flash Player 8 as target, the javascript is no longer executed.
It's not about the getUrl changes in Flash Player 9, I've also tested with Flash Player 8. If you want to try for yourself, the example I'm talking about is from [URL]..

When I publish my FLV video using Flash CS3 and the "SkinUnderAll" option...the player controls are not visible unless I change the height & width in the html file Flash created.But, Flash shows the height & width 3-times in the html.
Question-1: Why 3-times? What does each of the 3 Height & Width references do?
Question-2: How should I modify the code to be able to see the entire video and the player controls?
It seems if I change all 3 everything just gets bigger and bigger.
1 - I import it into Flash CS3 on a PC w/XP Pro using... File | Import | Video take all the defaults and choose "Skin Under All" as the player option.
2 - In "Properties" panel at bottom of screen Flash shows the video as 640x480
3 - I then click File | Publish to publish the video. Flash creates all my files for me.
MyVideo.fla
MyVideo.flv
MyVideo.html
MyVideo.swf
SkinUnderAll.swf
AC_RunActiveContent.js
4 - I then put the folder with the files on my website.
5 - The video plays but the player controls are not visible.
6 - I see the Height & Width referenced 3 times in the html file Flash created for me (and none are 640x480, they are 550x400 !)
7 - I try changing the 550x400 to 640x480 in all three places... no good. Even at 1000x1000 the entire player is not visible. Everything just gets larger.
What are each of the 3 references to Height and Width in the html file Flash Creates and which should I change to simply show all the player controls?

I am trying to create a flash player to display images in sequence using Flash player & ActionScript. The code below has lots of errors and I can't work them out. I have programmed in other languages and am perfectly aware that something like this.

I have a swc plugin embedded in my product to stream live video to a group of recipients.The plugin uses the NetStream, NetGroup and NetConnection objects, the server I use to handle the RTMFP session is Influxis.One client creates a group as a publisher, and stream a live video.His Camera is enabled and I can see the video on the screen as well. The others connect to his group and play the video.Peer assisted Networking is enabled for both the publisher and the recipients.The plugin worked well in all 10.x versions (10.1/10.2/10.3)However, when upgrading to flash player 11.x, it stopped working.
-11.x to 11.x isn't working.
-10.x with 11.x isn't working.
-only 10.x to 10.x is working.
The server I use to handle the RTMFP protocol is Influxis.com I sent them the same question as well.The weirdest fact is that I'm using flash builder 4.6 with 4.6 sdk, which is aimed for flash player 11.1, and it is only working with 10.x flash players.

I'm having a performance problem that seem to be related to Flash Player 11.I noticed this mainly because Chrome auto-updates the flash player. So, it's now up to 11 in Chrome. During a sliding section transition, the flash player chokes and skips about 10-20 frames. In essence the content jumps, not a smooth transitions. You can see this at the following url. Using a browser with 10, plays as intended, a separate browser with 11, chokes and jumps ahead.
firstworldproblems-[url].....I have security sensitive site, that is more elaborate that I can't share here. But, the same issue is happening above.I'm using LoaderMax to load assets. Adding it to the stage and then animating them in from the left or right of the stage, using Tweenmax. The one I can't show is a series of images, 1280x640 pixels, 10 in total.Removing items from the stage when they are not visible, so I can get the CPU usage back. On Flash Player 10, this is working as intended.On 11 it jumps. I don't think it's the removing assets from the stage that's choking the player, because the above link has the same issue.I feel like this is a Flash Player 11 performance issue.

I'm pretty new to Action script and I have a problem here that I can't seem to figure out.
I have this Action Script Code which is attached to a simple movieclip, and it all works IF the general settings are set for Flash Player 6.
It does not work for Flash Player 7 or above, which is probably because this is Actions Script 1 Code...
I attached the .fla file and also here's the code:

In some cases, such as what my client wants - Flash 6 and Flash 7 players behave slightly differently... a very annoying thing at times.Now, what I need to be able to do is to detect what version of Flash Player the user has. This will be done while my flash application is playing and then run the appropriate part of the function I am writing.Any way to detect what version of Flash Player is running from within the Flash Player?

I am trying to make the SIMPLEST POSSIBLE MP# player using the player component preinstalled in flash.It is very simple, the code is as follows:
Code:
on (release) {
player.contentPath ="Song.mp3"
player.play()
}
("player" is the mp3 component)
This works if I want a single track to be selected and played.Now, I need it to AUTOMATICALLY LOAD THE NEXT TRACK, which I will input in the code.I am thinking something like this:
Code:
player.onSoundComplete = function() {
player.contentPath ="Song.mp3"
player.play()
};
But this is not working.
PS: I know an XML file would be the best here, but I don't want to use it. I just want to enter the next track's code inside the swf.

I am trying to put together a simple game and have been doing really well until I decided I am going to have to create a new class to handle enemies.What I have so far is a player walking around on random terrains and I am up to the point where I have placed x amount of enemies on stage at appropriate times. I have written their class which will hopefully eventually handle their behavior and it outputs simple trace("BOO!").
Where I face the problem is that I obviously would like to make these enemies follow the player to attack. But when I try to access the .x or .y attributes of the player, it throws an error: 'call to a possibly undefined property with static type Class'?I have tried accessing the .x using the following ways (where badger is my player instance and Main is my class definition within the properties of the FLA):
Main.badger.x
Main(root).badger.x
Stage.badger.x
I have also tried to access other vars and still nope..My class code is this:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip
import flash.display.Stage

I can only find how to download the actual PLAYER for 10.1, but which library is used in conjunction with it?Will the latest release of the Flex SDK have the libraries for the multi-touch events etc?Or is the SDK for 10.1 only available to people who work for Adobe? will porting to iPhone supported formats only be available in Flash Professional, or will SDK users also have that option?

I would like to know how the following ActionScript, that only works in Flash Player 6, can be updated to work in a Flash Player 10 file.[URL]As it says, "On Publish Settings set Flash Player version on Flash Player 6, or this movie will not work."It works fine published as FP6 but not as FP10 as I need it to be. This AS is added to a movie symbol that contains a button for a rotating menu effect.
onClipEvent (load) {
hx = 300/2;
hy = 400/2;
r = 100;

on publishing some FLA files on FLASH-8, a warning pops up saying the target Flash Player "Flash Player 8"is not installed. The standard Flash Player will be used instead" Flash Player 8 has been installed together with FLASH-8 and it shows up in Currently installed programmes in Control Panel. It is marked as a rarely used programme though I run SWF every day. Another strange thing is that it used to be marked with that FLASH red icon, now it is marked with the folder icon.
Control Panel also shows Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX and Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin which I do not recall to installed - probably they came as an upgrade - I wonder if they somehow screen off Flash Player 8?

I have a game that needs to send the number of points a player is awarding to another player to a MySQL database on the same server. This game is part of my psych MSc dissertation, and I've gotten a lot of help on this bit from my department techie who knows php and MySQL well. However, he has absolutely no experience with Flash or Actionscript. He's gotten the php bit working so that it does send data to the right table in the database when it's supposed to using dummy variables, but when we try to test it with the actual .swf thats supposed to be doing the sending, nothing happens. We're pretty sure this means theres something wrong with the actionscript, but we don't know where.

I was re-using some old actionscript in a new fla. For some reason my scrollbar script didn't work correctly. After some debugging I found out the the maxscroll value was being returned as 2. Strange when there is only two lines of text in a 400px high textfield.
I published the same fla for flash player 7 in stead of 9 and the problem was gone??? Tried in 8 and there it was again. So something went wrong between Flash player 7 and 8, but what? Is this a known bug and are there any work arounds?

i think i might be missing some information here about how to manage classes and display objects. In the main .fla i have a mc called player; so I made a player.as class and put a linkage on player mc considering it would work as the mcs class. Well, its not working, the mclip is not noticing any of the vars and functions i added in the class. Anyone figures whats going on? How to make it work?

I've recently implemented in my engine is freeing the RAM for a level.It's something that's pretty essential seeing as I'll have thousands of polygons per level, and a pretty large amount of textures too per level, with an average of around 150 to 200 megs of RAM being used.This obviously needs to be cleared before the next level is loaded.The process is pretty simple really, just nullify all references to everything.On the offline SA player, this works perfectly. After pressing the clear button you see the RAM usage burning down, before it snaps to around 3.7.Online it simply doesn't work. Firefox's RAM usage on the plugin container basically doesn't change, but even Flash's internal reading of the RAM usage only changes a bit. It gets reduced by a couple of megs.URL...Press C to clear the engine. The RAM usage goes down by like a meg, to 10.3, which is hugely different to how much RAM is free'd on the SA player.I've tested it on Firefox and IE, the behaviour is the same on both.

I am testing a FLASH animation ad that has links to a website.When I click on the links, it opens firefox but it doesn't go to the link!I have added the links and the file names in the Adobe Flash Settings Manager, restarted several times, restarted in Safe Mode and it still does not work!I cannot find any information on this. My coworker also tried it and it does not work for him on IE on Windows.HOWEVER, If I have SAFARI open it works fine, and If I drag and drop the .swf file into either browser and then click on the links it goes to the web page.
