I'm having a major problem stopping video that is played in an external SWF. I've added the external SWF file via the addChild method. However, when I remove it the video's audio keeps playing. The only other solution if I can't figure it out is rebuilding the site in AS2... needless to say I really really want to try and avoid that
View 3 RepliesI have a website that plays video1 when it opens. When you navigate to next page the video stops. One of the buttons on the second page plays video2. The problem is that video 2 won't stop using the same command that made video1 stop.
View 2 RepliesI built a timeline based player with 2 menus and many videos that you can play.The buttons move the timeline to a frame label and the video plays. The back button has a stop function built in it so the video stops playing when its hit.It plays wonderfully locally but once on a server after a few clicks it boggs down and sometimes the audio from the last video remains playing even when prompted to stop. I was pointed to use the add and remove child functions to prevent this but being very new to Flash and 100% self taught i have zero idea on how to do this. The link to the player is[url]....Even if its a link to a tutorial or something.
View 3 RepliesI know how to make a video (instanced as showreel) stop when clicking on a button that that navigates to another section/frame, since otherwise I would still listen to that video while not visible. The problem is when I'm in another frame that doesn't have that video, when clicking on the menu to go to whichever other frame, it looks for that it to stop if it's playing and it and doesn't find it, and so there's an error.
How can solve this? Maybe I should put an order saying something like if there exists a video in that frame instanced as sowreel, stop it, otherwise don't do anything as there is nothing to be stopped. Or assign the order to the frame (which is called motion), but I don't know how to do that, can someone help? The code I have is:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void { if( showreel.playing ){ showreel.stop();} gotoAndStop(evt.currentTarget.name);}
motion.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);web.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);logo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
I have created my first flash video and wish to allow the visitors to play the movie themselves instead of having the movie play automatically also have a stop or pause button too.
View 2 RepliesI am developing the video player with custom video controls and I want to stop the video buffering when my video is paused. As sson as I play the video the buffering starts from the last bufferring point.
View 8 RepliesSpecifically, I am building a flash page that loads external swf files and inside some of the external swf files, I would like to add audio and flash video (flv) streaming from the Flaash Media Server. In some of the external swf files, (using a FLVPlayback component) when you press a button on the main timeline to unload the current playing swf the audio/video continues to play after loading the new external swf file.So I believe that my approach is all wrong and I should be working to dynamically load the .mp3 and.flvs in the external swf ... my questiion is how to unload those assets when loading the new external swf
View 1 RepliesI suppose the title says it all. I can load an external video file (FLV) and I can have it play. I also have the custom buttons made to control the clip. The only thing I have left to do is to have the main timeline move onto frame 2 once the external video reaches its end. I am using actionscript 3 and flash cs 5.5.
View 7 RepliesI make my base swf in which I load external swf's. In my base swf I have mp3 player. Everything works fine until I need to load external Video gallery or mmedija.swf. In video gallery I have
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
SoundMixer.stopAll();
to stop my mp3 player sounds and play video files.... But then when load some other files I want to stop playing video files and restart mp3 player.
[Code]...
I am working on controls for an external swf. The external swf loads an external sound file. The structure at the moment is extswf.swf contains mcSound which loads soundfile.mp3. extswf.swf automatically starts playing when invoked. movieController contains the icons for the play/pause buttons. This is assigned CntlClass. CntlClass loads extswf.swf and controls the play and pause buttons.
So far, the play and pause buttons stop and start and stop the movie but not the sound. I know I need to access the sound channel from the external swf and use the sound transform to change the volume. How to access that channel is unknown. The examples I find have imbedded sound files. Also, the examples seem to use the main class for the external swf. My external swf doesn't have a class file, so I have no idea what the main class would be.
I have trouble in choosing between external video with playback component and embedded video . I have tried adding video to dynamic page and everything is perfect .This video I have imported using the option File ->import video -> external video with playback component. If I try to execute flv on another system , the video is not playing eventhough it is in library.
So, I have imported video using the option of embedded video and this worked fine on another systems as it embeds video. The video plays for only 2 min 54 sec. I have compressed the bit rate to how much ever I can in premier pro. It resulted in reducing the size of the file but still I see the video occupying more than 3500 frames in the timeline. I feel this is not optimal.
I have loaded an external video with playback component in Flash CS4.
Now the question is do I need to add streaming script or not?
I'm using a video object and I want to make a stop button, yet pressing stop while the video is paused, will make it play.[code]I need to put an if function before the my_ns. pause (run_url); that asks if the movie is played or not.
View 1 RepliesI am working on a website using the [URL] tutorial for Flash CS4.
I ran into a bit of a problem, I made my flash movie and everything was good. I added a welcome video with sound that plays when the user opens the website, my only problem is that when you click on the other pages the video and sound keep playing even if you see the other page.
How do I get that video with sound to stop once you go away fro the page and go to another page?
I have a flash header built that contains a embedded video how can i stop the embedded video but not the rest of the movie?

I've just posted a reply in the ActionScript3 Forum as someone else has had the same problem, but I can't find a solution so posting again here as it's taken me about 5 hours of getting nowhere and I'm sure this is really easy... have one frame on my time line called "theatre" and another called "Video" the buttons between the two work but the video continues to play in the background when I go back to the "theatre" frame on the same time line and I can't find a stop function that will work A button on my main page links to Video on the timeline with following AS3
btnVid.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickbtnVid);
function clickbtnVid(event:Event) :void {
gotoAndStop("Video");

I am dynamically playing a video.flv file on the stage when a button is clicked. It plays fine but continuously repeats itself. I want it to play once and the disappear.
View 2 Replies1) I'm on the portfolio page, and I click a button to load a video.
2) Let's say I change my mind and press "back" button BEFORE the video has a chance to load completely.
3) I am back at the portfolio page. Everything looks okay BUT the video eventually loads. I can't get rid of it if I remain on the portfolio page.
i have a problem that i've already see that is pretty usual, the videoplayer that i have works fine but when i click in a button to go to another page the videoplayer doesn't stop,the audio continues playing even when i'm not on the videoplayer page.I've already found some solutions in the web but none of them worked,probably because i didn't put them in the right place

I want the video not to loop, but to stop on the final frame of the video. I want to add that action before publishing the SWFas3 file. I need a litle advice. I went to last frame and right-clicked on Actions. I don't know what to put in the dialog box.
View 2 RepliesI'm comfortable with PHP and Javascript but this is the first time I'm using flash. I have Flash CS5.
I've managed to import a movie file, however, as soon as it's downloaded it starts playing. I've tried using the Action stop(); coding, which works file in the export preview in CS5, but on a website it runs straight away.
I know I can't use the command because that stops the timeline but by then the video is already playing. My solution would be to use and have the video in frame 2, then get javascript to jump to frame 2 when I was ready. However, I can't find a way to import a video file to a frame in CS5. Is there a better way?
I have some navigational buttons and one being a video player using XML to load the videos. When I click to navigate to another section, the page comes in however I can still hear the video.

function asstgmOver(event:MouseEvent):void
{
asstgm.gotoAndPlay("_over");

View 9 RepliesHere s my problem, my stage contains 2 loaders, on the top there s an swf that contains buttons (my menu) and on the botom it loads in my content swf's.works out fine for fotos and so one, but im stuck when the loaded content is a video..
on my videoswf i ve got a play and a return(with stop) button, to return back to a frame to select what video should be played.. those buttons work perfectly, of course
the problem is now, that when i play the video and press a button from the upper loaded swf ( the menu) it loads another swf as usual,.. but the sound of the video still plays (so there has to be a child somewhere)..
now, how can i erase that movie instance when i cant excess it from the upper swf? is there a global value like stopEveryF*thing, or something like that ?
Actionscript 3. I have 4 buttons. 1 button goes to frame 1. 2nd button goes to frame 2, and so on.. Video is implanted into stage in one frame.

I have a video player in a multimedia presentation I am building in Flash, which is almost complete and just having one problem. When I change the page (scene change), I can still hear the audio form the video. The Video is still playing, how can I stop this?I was thinking if I added a stop function to all the buttons that link to different pages, but I don't know how to refer to the FLVPlayer. Somethink like
Bio_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, StopVideo);
function StopVideo ????????????????{
???????????????();
