ActionScript 3.0 :: Back To Start Of Video Very Slow?
Dec 2, 2009
I have an instance of the flvPlayBack component on my stage called myVideo a list of links down the lhs is used to pop in the required video.If a user gets say 1/3 of the way into a video and the presses a different link for a different video then: the new video pops up but the seek bar is still some way into the new video there is a pause of around 1 sec the seek bar goes back to the start.I want to speed up the return of the seek bar to the start of the new video.
Here's some code:
Code:
function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.myVideo.alpha=1;
if (linkType !="http"){
[code]....
This might be wrong but do I need to somehow remove the reference to the "old" video before I set the source to the new one?If that's junk - and it probably is ...How can I speed the return of the seek bar to the start of the new video?
I am putting together a small slideshow of pictures and it's only about 350 frames. I haven't worked with Flash since version 4.0, so I'm still trying to figure out Adobe's setup. 4.0's setup was so easy when it came to replaying a video once it hit the last keyframe, but I'm so lost in this ActionScript stuff.
How do I get the video to loop back and start playing again automatically?
My version of Flash CS5 has recently become very slow to start up, taking well over a minute sometimes.It appears to stall for the longest time during a loading process called "Loading Accelerators" (yes, very ironic).Mac Pro running Mac OSX 10.6.7 (Snow Leopard) and 14Gb RAM.
This is the first time I have used a FLV with cuepoints. I have a flv which loads into my swf which I have added cuepoints to on import. I have a series of buttons over the flv and when you rollover these you skip to various points in the flv. This works in principal but in reality it is a little slow, especially when it first loads. I am assuming this is because the FLV is still loading (although I am testing this locally and it will never be used on the web). If this is the case I think I need to make sure the entire flv is loaded before i show it. Secondly, is this the reason the rollover animations are slow to start or is this an inherent problem when using FLV? Is there anything else I can do to make it more responsive?
I'm using a new Mac Pro with Snow Leopard. We have Adobe MC CS5.I'm experiencing serious problems with Flash CS5. The program locks up at "Initializing Tools" for several minutes at start up. Once the program opens it will crash if I try to create a blank document. Other Adobe programs work fine.Flash CS4 worked fine on this computer.Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried uninstalling and deleting all adobe documents from the configuration folders. It just seems like this machine is cursed or something.
I am experiencing no scrolling below a certain scroll velocity on both mouse and trackpad on my Macbook in Safari 4.I have the mouse wheel events working on my mac through the javascript bridge from http:[url]..... I also have normalized the delta in my actionscript to be -2 if below 0, and +2 if above 0. Testing the delta on the javascript side, the mouse wheel at the slowest I can scroll it reads well above or below 0, and the trackpad reads around .025 to -.025... so I'm wondering why is it that Safari doesn't see this until higher speeds?Scrolling works, I just have to give the wheel some speed before it kicks in. It works perfectly in Firefox.
I have an awkward problem with a carousel I have built. When the images are scaled down to give the 3d 'flipping' effect, they start to flicker and cause the general movement to slow down. Someone mentioned cacheAsBitmap.. .
As I understand it video over a connection of say 40Kb/s wont actually have time to load and make a buffer, and it'll be "glitchy", so it wont make much difference whatever buffering is put in place. I'm getting complaints about glitchy video. I don't have access to the servers serving the media so I put a load timer in a swf along the lines of averageLoadSpeed = (bytesLoaded / loadTimer.currentCount) / 1024;
Out of 5 tests run, 2 were below 50Kb/s. And I've been told the server also is not geared towards media and put priorities on other business tasks. The head of IT for this company keeps going at me about buffering, and how that'll fix the problem. I tried to explain that the speed is way too low (32Mb = 32768Kb / 24Kb/s = 1,365 seconds * 60 = 22min) enlighten me on buffering aside from wikipedia's explanation about IO streams.
I have a grid of letters. I want to create the else aspect, where if you don't drop the letter on any square, it'll return to its original position. Issue is I don't declare it's original position, i simply use placement on stage.
How do you make a loop go back and start at 0 again? var mySWF:Array; var currentSWF:Number = 0; var myXML:XML = new XML(); myXML.ignoreWhite = true; myXML.load("myXML.xml"); [Code] .....
how can i drag parts of a pazzle and drop them in the rihgt position? if the posision is wrong i want (the piece) to return back to its start posission.
iam using FLVPlay back control in my project, i need to mute it while running first time automatically. it may thr script or any other option? i got struct up. mute buttton has to be ther, but initially it has to be muter, and video has to play.
I have used the flash accessibility tab to add index numbers to 19 elements on my page.However, once I reach tab number 19 I cant get it to loop back to tab index number 1.
I am making a website and am having a very hard time with the actionscripting and external loading involved. I have managed to auto load the background externally but the problem is that once the bgload movie(which is loading externally in main.swf) is loaded, it goes back to start. make the "bgload" movie stop right there after its played once....
I need to produce a photo review show (basically, a photo slide show), which incorporates still photography, and numerous video clips. We will have music playing in the background (not on the timeline - in the actionscript). The full presentation will run automatically - no user interaction, and therefore, I need the background music to automatically fade out when the video starts, and then fade back in when the video ends.
1. Is Flash CS5 the correct software to do this in?
2. code to tell the sound to fade out when the video starts, and fade back in when the video ends?
I recently upgraded from FMS 2 - FMIS 3.5.Over our internal network videos stream like a dream!However, accessing them from outside our own network means that they take about 20 seconds to load, or sometimes just get a message saying the server isn't found.This wasn't a problem with the FMS2 and there have been no changes to firewall settings or anything like that since the old server was up and running without problems.I have the new server set to use exaclty the same ports, but wonder if there are some other settings which could be causing this?Networking isn't really my area of expertise, and I have no idea where to start looking to improve things.
I have a toggle to mute and unmute sound in this movie. If sound is on and refresh with SharedObject sound plays again. Also I can toggle between the sound before refresh. The issue: when selecting mute then refresh, the movie plays back muted but the ability to un-mute is no longer available (at least not before another refresh).
Problem: toggle to mute then refresh of browser. Mute is fine but no ability to toggle back to sound.
Code: var my_snd_obj:Sound = new Sound(); my_snd_obj.start(0,1); my_snd_obj.attachSound("my_audio");
I've used kirupa's 'Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash' tutorial & modified to make my gallery, you can view it here: ZedMedia.org by clicking on the photos section in the main page. what i want to do is, instead of reaching the end of all my photos and it stopping, i want it to go back to the beginning image & start all over again. i want the opposite to appen at the start. when the previous_btn is pressed i want it to go to the end of the gallery.
i have an embedded video in my .fla. It's like the "background" of the scene. I need to slow down this video in a specific keyframe, and then return to the normal speed.
In my CS4 flash document I have created a media gallery. It's a very simple interface that has mouse overs on thumbnail pictures, and then the larger picture will fadeUP in the center of the document. (With use of framelabels in the timeline).
In the same document, I want the user to be able to click on a video thumbnail, and that video plays back in the center of the document. Several questions: If the user clicks on the thumbnail "onrelease," the time line goes to the player, is it possible to stream this video from a youtube clip into my media player on the screen? If not and I have the document in a fl4 format, is there a simple process to have this video open? (I currently do not have the document in fl4 format).
I managed to make a controller that can play embedded-video-SWF's in "slow-motion" (1/2 speed, 1/4 speed) and in reverse at different speeds. What I'd actually like to do, is something similar, but then with FLV's. I am trying to use the NetStream.pause() as a toggle onEnterFrame, but that doesnt work. Using seek doesn't seem to work either, because it kind of doesn't like non-integers and also for an unknown reason keeps sending the playhead to 4 seconds. if it should be possible to play an FLV at a different speed/reversed, how to do this, and if this should cause performance issues. (Reverse-playing an SWF is much slower for example)
I'm rewinding an FLVPlayer w/AS, but the little triangle on the seekbar doesn't move back to the start. The code I'm using is: videoComponent.stop(); videoComponent.seek(0); videoComponent.playheadTime = 0;
I have a Flash video playing as part of a jQuery slideshow. But it seems not to be autoplaying successfully, and is loading very slowly. It usually loads on refresh, but not when someone first hits the page.The video is at link removed as it will be outdated shortly - we're moving to production; besides, the problem is solved.
It is not a daylight discussion, but It is not the first time I got myself researching about that with no success at all. After all, what could be done when Full Screen Flash Video consumes up all the computer resources?
1) Is it a hardware/driver issue? 2) Is it about developing best-practices? 3) Is it some especific configuration on FLV exporters? 4) Is it a Flash Player limitation?
I have noticed some sites provide a really smooth full-screen video experience, but some others shows themselves up with a hell of video performance. My inclination, in a first approach, is towards thread 2. I have done some tests and all of them ended up in a clunky horrible show-time.
I'm working with flowplayer and accordingly ActionScript. This project has slowmotion plugin, but there are two imperfections: it uses the special stream server and no sound in slow motion. Is there possibility to play flash video and audio in slow motion by just add something in ActionScript?
I have a web site that displays a column of flash videos. The page is w3c-valid. The problem is that the page loads very slowly and sometimes crashes my web browser. Until the page is fully loaded, the videos are slow to respond and play. Is there a way to make these videos load their preview images only? What should I do to speed the page up? The videos are 360x264.
We have installed FMS on our godaddy server to work with and used live video streaming services. We are having problems with the video quality being choppy, slow and pauses continuously during live broadcast and motion. We can't figure what is wrong; video needs to be flawless and in high quality. The godaddy server is running:
Red Hat Fedora Core 7 Intel Core 2 Duo - 2.13 GHzRAM 2 GB RAM 250 GB Total Disk Space
I am facing below mentioned problem regarding video broadcasting with adobe flash media interactive server (Developers version). I am using DVRCAST for recording video from a webcam and broadcasting the same live. Please find video settings below. width:320 height:240 fps:15 quality:90 bandwidth:150 buffer time:0.01
Our problem is that videos are not playing smoothly in application. The motion is getting paused and interrupted in time of broadcast live. I downloaded and checked the recorded flv files from server and found the recorded file also has same problem. So this problem is appearing in time of streaming the video from client computer to fms server. This problem is not appearing when I am testing the application in my localhost.
My code for live streaming mentioned below: private function publishCamera():void { cam = Camera.getCamera(); cam.setMode(cameraSettings.width,cameraSettings.height,cameraSettings .fps); cam.setQuality(cameraSettings.bandwidth,0); cam.setQuality(cameraSettings.bandwidth,cameraSettings.quality); [Code] .....
