View 3 RepliesIve got a project with a fairly complex arrangement of menus and a narrated tutorial of sorts that is large (in terms of Mb) compared to the menus themselves. Since the tutorial is likely to be played only once, if at all, I don't want to load the asset unless needed. To do this I'm using the following code to load an external swf (the tutorial) and attach it to an mc container (mc_launch). A loader bar will be added later but for now it works, except: if the user navigates away from the tutorial (jumps to another frame in the menu timeline) the audio of the child attached to the mc_launch continues to play even though the instance of the mc_launch is no longer on stage. Shouldn't all the child objects of the container go away once the instance of the container is gone? If not, do I specifically have to execute a mc_launch.removeChild(loader) before navigating away from the instance of mc_launch?[code]...
View 5 RepliesI am having a problem stopping external swf from playing. I am currently using FlashCS4 and publishing to Flash Player 10. I would really like to use the code
"loader.unloadAndStop();"
to stop the swf. I tried using it but I keep getting the following error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method unloadAndstop through a reference with static type flash.display:Loader.loader.unloadAndstop();
I read somewhere that since the swf files were published in Captivate (also using Flash player 10) I have to load the swf into a flash movieclip first then try the loader.unloadAndStop code.
fscommand("allowscale","false");
fscommand("showmenu","false");
//import flash.display.MovieClip;

I have created a form that has some buttons that open external swf files.Problem is when I close the external swf the audio keeps playing.If I turn off sounds the sound starts again when I load a new external swf.Here is the relevant portion of code;
function playMyMovie():void{ myrequest=new URLRequest(myMovie); myloader =new Loader(); myloader.load(myrequest); function movieLoaded(myevent:Event):void { stage.addChild(myloader); var mycontent:MovieClip=myevent.target.content; mycontent.x=100; [code]....
Ok, so I have a main swf that loads an external swf into a movie clip called container_mc.In that external swf I want to stop it from playing and also make a play_btn appear so that the user may start it going again when they are ready. In my main swf I made this function:
ActionScript Code:
function pauseMovie(){
trace("movie paused");

I am creating a vertical shooter game for one of my assessments. There are 4 levels in the game, the object of each level is to shoot as many enemies (spawn via an external as file) to build up your score before the time runs out. Once the time reaches zero, you get linked to the next level. The first level is called the graveyard which has skulls as enemies. Once the time reaches zero, this swf automatically links to the next level which is called haunted_house.swf. The only problem is the skulls from the first level continue to spawn on the new level. How do I stop this? The coding for the timer and to link the first level to the next is below:

View 1 RepliesI am using AS2 in CS5.5.I am creating a project for a class that introduced me to adobe flash. The issue is I have gotten to a certain point about 15 scenes. During say the 15th scene scrolling through the timeline animations works fine, playing it on test scene works fine. When I go to play it on test movie it stops at a certain point. At first I thought it might have been a misplaced stop action but there is none to be found. The weird part is every other scene I create after that continues to freeze as well, the images are there, but the animations won't play. All my previous animations play before those with the issue, it's justThese new ones won't play for some reason in test movie, but work completely fine in test scene and the timeline.
View 4 RepliesI am creating a game that has 6 movieclips all on the main time line of the game. Each movie clip has three buttons that when clicked plays, pauses or stops a sound clip.When I press any of the sound clip play buttons that sound starts playing, the problem is when I click any of the other sound clip play buttons those sounds also start to play. Is there a way I can disable the other sound clip buttons while the current sound is playing then enable all of the buttons when the current sound has stopped.
This is the code that creates one of the sound objects

I'm making a project in Flash at college and when I view my project and click on a few tabs the sound from the videos starts playing and I can't get it to stop. The video doesn't play though but it's always the sound and if I press pause the video will pause but the sound keeps on playing.

View 2 RepliesI have a Flash based application that loads youtube videos using the YouTube API. Recently some videos that have previously played have stopped playing. When I click through to the YouTube site using the embedded Youtube link there is no indication as to why they should not play, for example removed content, not embeddable etc. Have there been any recent changes to youtube API that would result in this behaviour. It seems random to me and I cant find any pattern, or reason why this should be.
View 1 RepliesI'm building a site that needs to work both online (served in a browser using http://), and offline (served in a browser using file:///). The site is using basic HTML, but needs to be able to play FLV or MP4 videos. There are many video players that work online, but getting a player to work on the users machine is more problematic. Every one I have tried either doesn't work or shows a message about adding the flash movie to my trusted files in flash player.[code]Has anybody experienced a similar problem? Does anybody have a suggestion for alternatives that may work.

So I made a few buttons with sounds within them and when I publish it they work just fine. But what I want them to do is;
Say I click a Button.The sound starts playing.Then I click it again, before the sounds done playing.I want it to stop the playing sound and start playing the button I just clicked on, whether it be the same button, or a different one.Right now it just ends up sounds like an echo because it'll play it as many times as you click it.
The problem I have is I click the play button and start playing. Then I click next and when I click play for another song the songs overlap. How can I stop whatever song is playing and start playing the new one? Has to stop the prev song when I click play_brn.

I created 5 swfs (simple animations) and want to "somehow" thread them together to play one after the other inside the timeline of a new Flash Document. I was hoping to import each swf, have "movie 1" play, stop, have "movie 2" play, stop and so on until the 5th "movie plays out then stops (no looping necessary).
I've been playing with timeline actions for 2 days and can't figure how to lead one to the other. I've been using Action Script 2 so far but please get me back to Kansas with this. I'll use Action 3 if I have to.
Can I call AVI or MPEG or some other extension video files by using action script 3.0

View 1 RepliesI'm tweaking a flash website for a freind and he wants to have some videos play from a page. There are 25 files and ideally I want to achieve the 'Lightbox' look so that the browser window dims and the video plays over the top. After looking around I haven't found any easy solutions.What is the best way to achieve this, bearing in mind I shall have all these buttons on a page and want to have the video 'float' on top of the actual site?I'm relatively new to this although a long standing flash user when it comes to animation etc - not great on scripting.
View 1 RepliesI have 5 videos that all have separate buttons to play each one individually...however, I cannot figure out how to make the 5 play back to back if you are to click a "Play All" button. I figure this is something that needs to be coded...so I thought I should probably ask here. This is using AS 3 and Flash CS4.

View 2 RepliesSo my code is:Click the link show the div.I'm using the jquery flash embed object.[code]When I repeat this code and get the second video to load on click. It works in all browsers. The only issue I'm running into is that in IE6 the video keeps playing and in other browsers it stops the video your watching and loads the one you clicked on. I looked into using the .remove object or the .append to a div, but I can't seem to get that to work and if it does work will it play nice with IE6.
View 1 RepliesOn my website, I want my user to be able to launch video 2 at any point in the middle of video 1 without waiting or refreshing the window. How can I buffer the two videos such that I buffer video 1 enough to let it start playing, and then buffer just enough of video 2 that if the user launches it at any point, he does not have to wait to view its first few seconds, and then I can come back and buffer the rest of video 1? If this is not possible, I could also look at buffering video 1 and 2 in parallel while playing only video 1.
View 1 Repliesok so i have a button that plays an animation for fire when held down. and when realsed goes to and stops and frame one. when it reaches the end of the time line it goes to and plays at frame 10 and goes back to the end of the timeline. I have a sound for the fire animation that plays for the effect. The problem is the sound keeps going untill its over even if the button isnt held down. and when the playhead reaches the end of the timeline it goes to and plays and frame 10 and it replays the sound. if i hold it down it will just keep playing the sound over and over from start to finish. what i want it to do it when i hold the button down i want it to play the sound and when released it stops the sound where ever it is at. I also dont the sound to play again if there is a sound already going to stop it from playing 20 sounds at one time it gets loud and you need asprin after about 5 seconds of that.
