ActionScript 3.0 :: Building A SWF Player That Loads Other SWF Files Into It?
Jan 18, 2010
I am building an AS3 SWF player that loads other SWF files into it, both AS2 and AS3 files will be loaded (one at a time). In the case that it is an AS3 file then the main player SWF can directly call functions and variables inside the loaded AS3 file. Now to handle AS2 files I am using 2 Local Connection channels, one for the player to send info to the loaded SWF and one for the loaded SWF to send info to the player SWF.
Now i never have more than 1 SWF loaded into the player at a time and before i load the next SWF into the player i use..

I am building a SWF player which loads external SWF's.
Rite Now. I could call the external SWF using URLRequest.
but I am getting 2 problems
1. How to run the SWF with the frame rate of the actual SWF movie. If, I increase the frame rate manually, some movies become a lot faster and some are pretty slow.
2. I have set a layer of 450px by 333px. How do I scale the external SWF with showall property to fit in the layer.

I'm building a project that dynamically loads external images and audio into it.The images in the external folder are numbered sequentially in the order they display as you click through them (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, etc). No problem.There is audio that is supposed to fade in a play with certain images. (1.mp3 fades in when 1.jpg is displayed.). No problem.Here's where it gets tricky... At least for me.Not every jpg has an audio file associated with it. The last audio that was triggered needs to keep playing until another jpg with cooresponding audio file plays, at which point the two audio files need to smoothly crossfade.1.jpg displayed => 1.mp3 fades in and plays.
(user clicks)
2.jpg displayed => 1.mp3 crossfades to 2.mp3.
(user clicks)

I have the below actionscript almost working for playing mp3s. This isn't dynamic or anything. Just links to songs (from buttons) that should null each other out when clicked on. The first song loads fine. However, the second song will not load. I must be missing something. Or maybe I took the wrong approach? Any help would be great.

I'm currently building a custom flv player and need some help. Maybe I'm missing something, I'm not sure. The main problem is that the FLV doesn't load/play, which most likely causes the secondary problems, such as the bufferClip always visible and no way to test the video and audio scrubbers.

I'm creating a music player to be on my website and so far I have it set up as such: The player is contained in a movieclip with a 'song progress bar', a pause and a play button.The songs are played by clicking the song title in a list in the main stage (not contained in the player movie clip), which sends the music player to the frame in which the song starts.
My audio is set as event audio so that the play and pause buttons can be coded as play(); and stop(): respectively which will stop the main player movie clip thus yeilding the progress bar from moving further and the song from playing.
This works just fine, except for the following:
- When I select event as my audio type the quality reduces dramatically Having the audio files in my library and not obtained from some outside source (i.e on my website's server) causes the .fla file to be much larger as well as the .swf Being as my project is at 24 FPS and each song is represented in as many frames as it takesto play the song out, my music player at present has only 3 songs 'in it', and my frames in the movie clip are approaching 20,000 (this is VERY tedious to work with)
I'm sure there is a more efficient way of doing things, but my knowledge is limited. I'd imagine I can do something along the lines of loading .mp3's off of my website into the frame and the play pause buttons will enact more elaborate scripts that not only stop the progress bar but also stop the music from playing temporarily, or something like this. But I have no idea how to implement it

I am doing a video library. Each category has it's own XML files that feeds it data. Everything works great.However, when I Exported the Release Build. I noticed those XML files are gone(i.e. never got exported). I don't understand why. I need the video library to be dynamic so I can add or remove videos.Anyone know why those files are not exported along with the rest of the project. Like a setting in the preference that I need to fix?

Can we compile a SWF for (let's say) Flash Player 11, but still let people with older Flash Player versions run the SWF? E.g. if they have the latest version of Flash Player we will take advantage of the features in that player (eg H264 encoding of video) but if they have an older player we will just use older features (in this case VP6 encoding).
I've tried compiling for the latest version, FP11.0, but when you run this in older Flash Players it complains that libraries aren't available, even though that part of the code is not executed as its placed within a conditional statement which checks the version of the Flash Player. Surely we don't need to compile a SWF for each different Flash Player and have a condition in the HTML page which decides which movie to load?

So I have a working Flash player using Cloudfront, AS3, NetConnection & NetStream. Works with a FLV, but I need it to work with MP4s. It connects to the stream, and outputs the following:
NetConnection.Connect.Success
NetStream.Play.Reset
NetStream.Play.Start
NetStream.Buffer.Full
My presumption is that it is working when looking at these messages, however it doesn't show the video or play any audio.

I have 3 scenes.
Scene 1 is a sitelock scene. If true goto scene 3 and stop. Else goto scene 2 and stop.
The good: It works and goes to scene 3.
The bad. It loads everything on scene 2 and then goes to scene 3 with player 10.
Every object created with actionscript on scene 2 is created on scene 3.

All the skins load up but the videos don't. When I play the same file locally, all the videos load up and play automatically without the play button being pressed.[url]...
This is the page. As you can see, it's almost as though the swf weren't even on the server, but I assure it is and it's in the same folder as the html file. I've even tried placing it in a different folder, using relative or absolute linking, etc. I can't figure it out. I've done this before and never had problems, and it works locally, but locally it loads and plays automatically which shouldn't happen, as but online it just doesn't load.

In main.swf I loaded file.swf as:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("file.swf");
When main swf loaded in HTML with an absolute link like:[URL].. It reports 404 error loading failed of file.swf
Because it looks for file.swf at current web host.What's the best way to do this without hard code absolute url in main.swf?

I've had Flash CS4 (a legally purchased single-user licence) since the day it came out and used it practically every day without any major problems. Today I opened it up to carry on with some work, and it crashed. I had a whole host of other stuff that was open and updating at the same time, so I waited until that was done, then I tried again. It crashed. So I rebooted, and tried again. It crashed. Slightly panicked, I uninstalled Flash CS4, rebooted, re-installed it, and tried again. It crashed. Panic giving way to anger, I googled the issue, and this time uninstalled, with 'Remove user preferences' checked, went through my Windows system and manually deleted any associated files in my Application Data folder, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted, and tried again. It crashed.
I have now just downloaded the Adobe CS4 Cleanup utility and run it, but after twenty minutes hanging at the 'Removing all session folders' screen and no processor activity I could see, I quit the program. I'm tempted to try reinstalling again (obviously) but I'm pretty sure I know what's going to happen.Just so it's clear, here are a list of the variables involved:Registered single-user licence of Flash CS4, running without issue since 2008Windows XP SP3The Flash IDE opens fine on its own, but crashes when it tries to open ANY Flash fileI have CS4 installed on my laptop, and that can open the same files fineAny

I have been working in Flash CS3 now for a couple of months and action scripts have been a challenge for me. I have created a site that has 4 areas that play a looping swf file of images. I can get this to work no problem with a behavior for rollover, but what I am looking to do is have the 4 swf files automatically play when the page loads.
The swf file I want to play is really simple, just images of banners.

i am using this preloader to load load external swf files in my main.swf. it works great but it has a small issue regarding loading timing. when it gets to 100% and loads the external swf file the swf file as i suspect is loaded a little bit earlier than the % and when it shows up its already playing the 10th frame instead of the first frame. the code is below....
MovieClip.prototype.fadeIn = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {

im trying to create an advert box that loads different files from urls contained in an external xml src. The code for the XML loading works well, but the rest of the code does not seem to work.
what im trying to archieve is:
1. get the list of urls from the XML file
2. trigger the loading of these files as soon as the xml file is loaded
3. loop among these files (5 in total), in a given period of time,
4. Each time they are loaded ,the loading bar should show the progress
here is my code
Code:
_root.start_load_advert = function() {
load_advert_int = setInterval(load_advert, 10000);
};

I am using a content loader through AS3 to load some images and then later pushed into an array. I have pushed my image file paths in to an array (arrayImages). But when the loader loads the images it doesn't load the images based on the order they are listed in the arrayImages, instead they were loaded based on their file sizes. Is there anyway that these can be loaded in the order they were pushed to the array? Below is the code that i use to load the images.
function funcLoadImages() {
for (var i:uint=0; i<arrayImages.length; i++) {
var ldrImageLoader:Loader=new Loader();
ldrImageLoader.load(new URLRequest(arrayImages[i]));ldrImageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE,pushLoadedImagetoAnotherArray);
}
