if there's a way to automatically update the flash player if the user doesn't have the required version. If there's no way, can i make a button to download it directly from my site so the user doesn't have to go to the adobe webpage?

I have a video player that is updated by manually updating the XML file that tells flash what videos to play.The videos are stored in a folder called videos. Is it possible to get it so when the user puts a new video into the video folder the XML is updated automatically?

View 4 RepliesOn the website will be a downloadable file with a password.Since the beginning of the promotion there will be single letters added each hour. Probably only one visible at the time.Since this action takes place during weekend and i don't want to spend it in front of a computer updating the letters manually each hour i was wondering if there is a script which will do it for me.There is a restriction though - the whole password cannot be included in the swf file (obvious security reasons).
View 1 RepliesI have a strange issue where Flash Player in Chrome is not updating unless the browser is resized. The app is an online design tool, written in Flex, and one of the features allows the user to upload an image and crop it. The image loads fine, and the crop action does not reload the image but uses Bitmap.copyPixels to create the cropped version.When I test on localhost (though a local server not just straight from the file system) the issue does not happen. However on our QA server the image does not appear unless you resize the browser, when I suppose a screen refresh is forced.I've tried all the usual suspects in AS3/Flex to force a redraw, updateAfterEvent, invalidateDisplayList, etc.we came up with is to resize the browser by a pixel, but this is obviously not ideal and I'd prefer a solution to a work-around.Here's the Bitmap code for reference...
var cropData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _crop.width, _crop.height );
var originalData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _loader.width, _loader.height );
originalData.draw( _loader );[code]....
I'm just about to uninstall and reinstall at this point but I'm getting my install all screwed up trying to update Flash Pro CS5.5 to use Flash Player 11. I had it fine using the MXP provided in this adobe blog. Though that's 11.0 not 11.1. It did work however.
I downloaded the latest Flash Player / Debugger .exe and the latest SWC for 11.1 and now Stage3D is no longer being seen. Clearly I screwed something up. I uninstalled and reinstalled the MXP after deleting the FP11 XML and FP11 directory but it's not working anymore.
Is there a clear cut simple way to explain how to overlay the latest Flash Player for FPCS5.5? I used the AIR overlay instructions for 2.6 - 3.1 and it worked every time. Now I just need Flash Player overlay instructions. I'm very interested to start trying to Starling framework with Stage3D. I select FP11 to export and it tells me it can't find Stage3D.
There's no access to the HTTP cookies from within a Flash movie, but I now have repeatedly read that Flash Player is supposed to take care of session cookies automatically. I could, however, not find any documentation about this, and it sure didn't work with my Flex client running against a Struts backend using the default JSESSIONID cookie.
View 3 RepliesWhy and when? Because I addChild to the stage 1000 times but only removeChild 800 times, and even so, stage.numChildren returns to 0 after all my objects have exceeded the stage boundary. I have to mention that I am moving objects from left to right (it's a game) and the object's X and Y properties eventually exceed the stage boundaries. Does something happen automatically then??? Like... events removed or something like that? This is a continuation of this thread of mine, where I initially thought addChildren has issues: [URL].

like a lot of people on this forum i am having trouble with an MP3 Player. I have my music player, playing, stopping and going to next and previous. But i am now trying to display the time of how long its been playing for. I have a model class (containing the soundchannel, sound and timer) which has a songsModel class (an extension of model, which contains and update method)
I also have a controller class, which is in control of the people pushing the buttons from the songController class. The controller class plays the soundchannel and starts a timer. i have a songsController class which uses the constructor of the model class as a superclass. This class is controlling users pushing buttons. My other class is a view class, which waits for the model to update itself so that it can display the latest songs.
My problem is i cannot figure out how to pass through the timer to the view class for its latest update (every half second). I have managed to display it ever time the model updates as discussed above.

How do you set an FLV player to be muted automatically on load? I know how to make the volume 0 on load but I actually want to set the mute button state to muted so the user can click on it to unmute it.

I've been fiddling around with the above player and find it simple to use and personalise.
The only problem is that I can't seem to find a way for the next track to play automatically. And I guess to start at the beginning again after the last track.
I'm sure it's just a play/stop or true/false that I've over looked
Here's the code on the MC that contains the player's buttons:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
//trace(_root.s.position / 1000);
secondsPlayed=int(_root.s.position / 1000);
[Code].....
It is perfect, except that I'm not sure how to keep it from playing automatically. I tried removing the playSong() part under the loadSong function and it just removes the ability to play the song altogether. Here is the code:
import fl.controls.ComboBox;import fl.data.DataProvider;
///////////////////////////////////Variables/////////////////////////////////var song:Sound;var channel:SoundChannel;var xform:SoundTransform;var

On the first page, my player begins to play like a radio show. i have different sections which are all individual tracks. the player works and plays each track when i manually press next or previous...but it doesn't automatically play through all the tracks. instead it pauses after the first track and i have to manually press next.
here is what i used...can you find the problem:
stop();
playlist = new XML();
playlist.ignoreWhite=true;

I'm by no means up on my AS at all and this MP3 player I've had for a while and just readjusted to suit my needs.
One thing i really want to change is the fact the music starts automatically. I changed line 38 from True to False which does indeed stop the music playing on load but instead i get "Loading" and it doesn't do anything after that. Hitting play won't work.[code]...

I try to create a dynamic web gallery in flash that feeds it's content from a XML DB, so it's easy to update and maintain the gallery (right?!). What I have, is the gallery specs in the flash movie itself:
// container dimensions
// is that even necessary?
movieW = 650;
movieH = 600;
[code]....
and then the gallery process - so how can I subsitute this for a XML DB?
Have an XML that holds variables in place of hard-coded values. Then create a Flash app that will populate the XML to be used via Flash app.Currently...I have a Flash app that brings in XML data, but we have to manually put in the data into the XML file. I would like to create another app that will allow people who don't want to get into the XML file to be able to input that data into a Flash GUI and click on a 'submit' button that will populate the XML file automatically.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way once a flash site is live, that my client can change the text or even the images? Even if it's by uploading to the server? If perhaps they were all predetermined in size ect.? Similar to how HTML calls images from a folder located on the server. I'm guessing something to do with PHP? Touching upon this briefly so understand flash uses PHP to communcate outside of the swf file to complete certain tasks.
View 1 RepliesFirstly i am not sure if this is the correct forum, basically i have updated my flash movie on my website, and the updates have taken effect in mozilla and google chrome, however in IE 7 & 8 the old flash movie still displays. I get this is down to the cache and i have tried several code snippets to correct this but nothing seems to make a difference.Is there anything that i can do with the flash code to force the browsers to reload the the movie each time they visit?
View 2 RepliesI have external as3 classes but when I edit something like content_txt.text = 'something else' it doesn't even change on the flash app on the server.
Even when I change the background color of my flash app, republish it and put in on the server to replace the old one. Still the old one is displayed.
How can I get around this? cause it's very frustrating to learn and develop stuff that won't cooperate. I'm trying to have facebook integration if anyone's asking.
I have a dynamic textfield on my stage with the instance name trackText.
I have declared public var trackText:TextField;.
When I trace trackText.text it gives me exactly what I expect but the actual text on the stage does not update.
public var trackText:TextField;
trackText.text = audioPlayer.currentSong.title;
trace("trackText = " + trackText.text);
// gives me what i expect "track 1" etc..
but the text on the stage still says "loading..."
I have a flash slideshow that has buttons at the bottom..when one of the images is displaying, it sets the buttons to load a webpage, when the next images load, the buttons are set to load a different website. I am using an external actionscript file for the links. However, after I publish the flash file, then when I go to change the links in the flash file by opening in notepad, changing the link, then saving it as the same file name, when I run the .swf it doesn't update the link that it is supposed to go to when you click on a button.

View 2 RepliesI'll start off by saying that I'm new to Flash. I'm using the CS5 Web Premium suite and want to publish an updated version of a Flash movie that contains PhotoShop files which I've recently modified. Unfortunately, when I open the .FLA file in Flash Professional CS5, it's not apparent to me how to do this. I don't see the PhotoShop files anywhere in the Library pane and thus can't figure out a way to update the Flash movie to recognize my newly modified .PSD files.
