ActionScript 3.0 :: Building A SWF Player Which Loads External SWF's?
Oct 3, 2010
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 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'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

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.

Lets say I have subgallery.swf file that loads jpeg images. And I have gallery.swf file that loads subgallery.swf.The jpeg images and both swf files are in the same folder.When I test gallery.swf it loads subgallery.swf but subgallery.swf doesn't load images. When testing subgallery.swf alone, it loads jpeg files.Is there any limitation or setting preventing external swfs loading other content?

I am working on a project based on this pageflip source code that is located here: [URL] My project is located at [URL] - once there you may click on "Jones Album" to see my utilization of the original source code from iparigrafika.hu. As you can see on my version...there is no preloader... I can't add a standard preloader in the first few frames of the main movie, otherwise the flash no longer works properly. And every tutorial that i have found on loading external SWF files requires that a preloader be added to the external SWF.
How do I write the actionscript for a percentage preloader of my external SWF without putting the preloader in the external SWF? keep in mind that I am a novice when it comes to actionscript, so bear with me.

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.

Is there any way we can make the JW Player auto resizable when it loads?
Like, for instance, if the movie file is smaller in dimensions than the player,then there is black background it. I want the movie to spread all over the black color.

[code]I open IMAGEURL.txt, which contains a variable named "img" with a value in it. I call that value and set it to myurl. Then, I load myurl's image into img_container.This works when I test the swf while flash open, but not while I test in the standalone swf thats exported on my computer, or on a browser. Something about internet settings came up as well, til I published to "allow network only".

I am trying to put together a simple game and have been doing really well until I decided I am going to have to create a new class to handle enemies.What I have so far is a player walking around on random terrains and I am up to the point where I have placed x amount of enemies on stage at appropriate times. I have written their class which will hopefully eventually handle their behavior and it outputs simple trace("BOO!").
Where I face the problem is that I obviously would like to make these enemies follow the player to attack. But when I try to access the .x or .y attributes of the player, it throws an error: 'call to a possibly undefined property with static type Class'?I have tried accessing the .x using the following ways (where badger is my player instance and Main is my class definition within the properties of the FLA):
Main.badger.x
Main(root).badger.x
Stage.badger.x
I have also tried to access other vars and still nope..My class code is this:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip
import flash.display.Stage
