What can I do to smooth the jerkiness of my tweening text? The actual textFields are all already set to "anti-alias form animation". But they aren't behaving as nicely as they could be. I tried embedding the font etc...

I have a very simple tween that just scrolls photos across the screen but it looks very jerky. how to make it smooth?
View 6 RepliesMy image gallery scroller play back is jerky, it seems like a interlacing problem.This is a swf file with mouse interaction (mouse left scroll left, mouse right scroll right) 30fps, they are jpegs at 300x300 pixels.Mainly the upper part of the pictures are affected.I've looked everywhere in Flash CS4 and cant find the option setting for interlace or progressive, or does it even exist?I've tried setting the Jpeg setting as progressive in Publish setting but the problem still persist...
View 3 RepliesI've set my movie to 2fps so that I can play a note of a musical scale on each frame. Unfortunately, playback at this fps is not as uniform as I'd like and makes the full scale sound rather amateurish. I wonder if there is a way to make flash stick to a solid 2fps? Everytime I play back the slight timing errors are the same so there's a pattern to it's out-of-time-ness. I'd rather not increase the fps as that would require more frames and a larger movie to keep track of/publish but if it's the only solution I may have to. Has anyone else experienced this sort of behaviour?
I've uploaded my .swf here in the hope someone may find it useful: AudioLayer.swf Any tips or suggestions would be most welcome! I've looked everywhere on the web but I can't for the life of me find out why it's happening.
I used media encoder to convert my 3 minute widescreen 856x480 video to a 428x240 flv. It plays OK on my computer but after I embed it in a webpage in Dreamweaver and upload it, it plays jittery on the internet. How can I get it play smoothly like all the other flash videos I see on the internet. Here's the link: [URL]
View 1 RepliesI've created a vertical accordion based of this one url...But for some reason in my version the scrolling is jerky and sometimes overlaps causing two layers to flash. How can i fix that. All i've done is change all the width values to height and all the x values to y.[code]
View 8 RepliesI don't do much flash but can sort of get myself around. I'm having issues with a classic tween in CS4. I have a jpeg of magazine covers inside an MC that repeats a scrolling left movement. The client has commented that it comes across a little jerky and isn't smooth enough.

I've got a short animation at 720p - not much going on, just some symbols moving around the screen - but playback in flash player is jerky (more flashy, actually) - not smooth at all.
I've got the latest video drivers for my card, running a dual-core 2.4GHz with 6GB of RAM - my CPU meter says it's having no trouble playing the flash. The video card is an Nvidia quadro NVS 285 (pretty old & crap, but should have no problems).
I don't suppose anyone has got any ideas. I am using FlashEff2 for an effect but the entire animation is jerky, not just the bit with the FlashEff. I would post the fla but I can't see any way to do that on this forum - if anyone would like to see the source, please email me at elliot dot sumner at gmail dot com.

View 2 RepliesI recently launched a Flash website that has video tutorials synchronized with Flash animations. Overall the site is functioning well, but I have an isolated instance of user having very jerky video with the audio occasionally cutting out.
His connection speed is fine (3572.7 Kbps). When I asked him for details he said the video was jerky from the start, and 'the video cycled from smooth to jerky once every half to a whole second.' He is using Flash player WIN 9.0.28.0, on win XP with all updates. When asked he did not provide the browser version.
Here is a link to the site:

The programming is done in AS 2. It's set up using net connection and net stream for flvs hosted on a media server. The flvs have cuepoints to trigger the animations. When a given flv is finished downloading the next flv in the list is then preloaded. The buffer time is set to 6 seconds.
I haven't been able to recreate the problem. The feedback that we've gotten suggests that the site runs fine. If anyone has trouble viewing this please let me know and please provide details.
I have a fairly decent grasp of flash, but not so much of the action script side of things. I need to make a banner similar to the one featured here:[URL]..
As you can see, the image is jerky and juddery when it scales down. From what I can find out, I think I need to use the pixel snapping feature to help make it a smoother fade, but I haven't got a clue how to write the actionscript for it, or where to put the actionscript. Can anyone give me any pointers?
I have a series of mp4 videos (H.236 @ 22 fps) streaming from an akamai FMS serve via RTMP protocol in flash player 9+ with AS 3.My goal is to create client side playlists that smoothly switch from one stream to another. I am creating these playlists using a series of netStream. play (filename,start,len) methods. If I don't use an offset for the start parameter, then the stream switches smoothly from one video to the next with not noticeable jump or jerkiness. However if I introduce a start offset, say a few seconds in, I start to see a quick little hiccup or pause between the seams as it switches from one playlist stream to the next.

(I'm using flash CS4.) I've created a movie for my home page, which can been seen at: [URL] In the movie first there are pics of a building, then my drawings of a building, and finally words that fade in. This consists of three jpegs that I turned into symbols, to get them to tween. The problem is when the words fade in. I tried doing this two different ways, and only one worked, but there is a flaw in it. To get the words to fade in I copied the drawing jpeg and put the words on it, and then saved it as a separate jpeg. Unfortunately, the tweening out of the jpeg #2 and the tweening in of Jpeg #3 with the text on it don't sequence perfectly so you will notice that the center building fades out a little bit as the words fade in. My second attempt was to make a symbol of just the text in the proper location, while not using a background, but when I converted it into a symbol, it took on the same size background as the stage, and thus covered up the everything as it tweened in, and I was left with just text at the end of the movie. ...I know I've probably worded this poorly, because I don't know all the flash terminology yet. .
View 1 RepliesThis swf is just a test of a site I am trying to eventually make. I was wondering if someone could take a look at it and tell me how I can make the links that aren't relavent to the page dim out a little bit. I will attach the FLA and the SWF. Just click on one of the links in the begining to launch the tween navbar i set up. I just want to be able to make the links that aren't in the middle, be lighter.
I tried putting a semi transparent box in the corners on top of it, but since it's on top, it makes it so I can't click the links.
do a simple fade in of text with a motion tween. I have entered text, converted to graphic symbol, set alpha channel on frame 1 to 0% and on frame 30 to 100%, the add motion tween. The text simply pops back in at frame 30 with no fade in between 0 and 30 at all. I have text set as static. Is this a Flash bug? I am working with Flash CS3. The same thing happened when I tried to do a zoom with a graphic and I had to break the two objects apart before I got any motion tween between them. This is not working with text, however.

View 5 RepliesI have a dynamic text which is subject of a motion tween. Before the tween starts I assign it a new text value. Now I noticed that at both the first and last keyframe of the tween the text value is reset to its design time value. Is there a way to avoid this, so that it retains the newly assigned value?
View 2 RepliesFor those of you who know how to shape tween TEXT, you can do it by breaking it apart(under the MODIFY tab) in the GUI part of Flash. In AS3 however, you can't do that.
End Result wish - To simply have the text font increase in size starting from say, font size of 10 to 300 as if it is coming out of the screen. Imagine a dot, and then imagine the dot shape tweening out to become a large dot until it fills up your screen, now imagine your text box being able to do the same thing.

I've got a movieClip containing a background and 3 dynamic text inputs, that I'm trying to tween via the tween class.When I apply the alpha tween, the background within the movieClip does fade to 0 like it should, but the dynamic text inputs do NOT.I was wondering if anyone could explain how I could get this working, so that an alpha tween to a movieClip also alpha tween everything within it. It was my understanding that the point of putting things into a movieClip was so that you didn't have to apply to each element of the movieClip.
View 2 RepliesWe have a flashcard application that loads the cards from an array (mysql database -> php -> flash), everything works fine when using a classic tween but when we try to apply a 3D tween to the cards we lose the dynamic text (font is embedded).
So before i spend weeks trying to find a solution i figured i would ask?
Can a 3D Tween be applied to dynamic text in CS4?
I've made a movie clip which goes from 0 opacity to 100%, it starts when i click a button. Then i've got a text field in which external text loads. I need the text to laod when the movie clip's opacity is at 100%. How do i do that?

I have run into this problem multiple times and never been able to find an answer, but this time rather than doing a work around, I wanted to try once-and-for-all to see if anyone has an answer.With actionscript I'm creating a new movieclip, then having that movieclip create a text field. I'm populating this text field with content pulled from an XML file, and also controlling its color, size, ect. with the same XLM document.I'm trying to set its alpha to 0, then have Tweener tween it in to 100, but have never been successful.Has anyone run into this and found a way to do it?
View 10 RepliesI want to do is a map of russia with circles on it, denoting cities, where dealerships of my company reside. So the european part is so adlomerated that it would be insane placing city name in there, so i though of making a script that would make the circle grow onRollOver and shrink it onRollOut (which I made, based on some exmamples on [URL] - as said before - total noob) and would make the city name come out or appear onRelease. I can't figure the onRelease part.
NOTHING. The buttons/circles are all instances of one movieclip with unique names, placed in an array. So on load the init() function fires off, which takes care of onRollOver and onRollOut methods and SHOULD take care of the onRelease part, but I can't figure out how the code should be like.
I have a linked movieclip in my library that contains a dynamic text field. I edit this text via my external class but when I tween my MC, the text just disappears !!
Code:
var goTo1:_goTo1= new _goTo1();
addChild(goTo1);
goTo1.id=0;
goTo1.buttonMode = true;

so i'm now working on a mp3 player, and i got stucked with something. so here's my problem: i've a got bar (songBar) on which it will appear the artist and the song name(artist_txt). what i want is when de title_txt width is larger than the songBar.width, the text to scroll from right to left, and when the tween is finished to scroll from left to right(all this tween has to be a loop). if the width of artist_txt is smaller or equal to the songBar.width then artist_txt is aligned in the center of the songBar. all i'm trying to code it's just what you see in winamp player.

i am trying to do is make a simple text animation, i need the text to go from small to large and fade. I figured how to make the text move with a tween and fade with the alpha, but i cannot get it to go from small to large and back to small.Here is an example of what i mean...

I wanted to make my My text tween to a different color upon rollover. I *think* i understand the code I should use to do this, but I'm stuck on what to call the class... I was going to set it up like this...
var Bcolor:Tween = new Tween(b_logo, "???", Strong.easeOut, ?, ?, ?, true);
So as you can see I'm not sure what i would put in the quotes to affect color, or what values I would use?
If I put any text letter of any size at the top of the stage, lets say for example a "T" of 10 pts. Then move the timeline to frame 50 and insert a keyframe and then move that "T" down to the bottom of the stage and resize it to say 50 pts. (I want the effect of the letter growing as it moves down the stage).If I then isert a Motion Tween and scrub it the letter just stays at 10 pt until the keyframe at 50is hit and then it resizes to 50. Not the effect I am looking for.But if I use the classic tween then it does do what I want which is gradually grow from 10 pts to 50 pts by the bottom of the stage.
