Initially I want to control a movie clip (play, pause) using two buttons. I placed a movie clip(square) and two buttons (btnPlay, btnPause) on the stage.and created Engine.as assigned to stage.
/// Engine.as ///
package {
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]...
I am using CS3 with Actionscript 2.0I am trying to get a play / pause button to control a movie clip.I have placed the MC on one layer and the button on another layer.The button works great.All I need is the AS to control the timeline of the movie clip.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a play, pause and stop btns controlling a mp3 file which is in the library which has a linkage id of Speakers. I've manage to get the pause and play to work but now incorporating a stop button isn't working for me
Code:
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.attachSound("Speakers");
btnHalt.onRelease = function() {
snd.stop();
} btnResume.onRelease = function() {
snd.start(snd.position / 1000);
} restartbtn.onRelease = function() {
snd.start();
}
To say basically if you have pressed the pause btn, then the play btn, play from state pause at, but if you have pressed the stop btn then pressed the play btn, play from start and also if the play btn has been pressed and the audio is playing if pressed again dont play again do nothing.
how to create a play/pause button to control my movie animation?
View 2 RepliesI've created some scrolling images and want to add a play and pause button to it. I want it playing when the site loads up but I can't get it to stop. I've used the stop(); AS but it won't work. I think it's because I haven't made it using tweening etc as the scrolling is purely AS based.
The FLA file is here could someone take a look please and tell me what AS I would need to add to my buttons so it will stop and play. I haven't created the buttons but I will have one for play and one for pause.

View 10 RepliesI'm trying to pause a movie using a stop action. I'm using a button to do this. This is in the actionscripting attached to the button.
on (press) {
stop();
}
The button is in the main movie so I don't get why it's not working. I'm also trying to add a button next to it that would play the movie, after pausing it.
This is the set up so far. Loader1, is playing till home.swf is loaded. I am using the loadClip function for it. onLoadProgress plays the first bit of Loader1.
What I want to do is within onLoadInit() = function(_mc:MovieClip) {
root.ldr1.addEventListener("played", function() {_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);}); // add listener to Loader 1
_mc.stop();
[Code]....
The problem is that it is not playing the function. Also _mc.stop(); is not stopping the loaded file. It keeps playing, though _mc._alpha is working fine.
How can I make sure the event is being dispatched?? Home.swf ( the _mc being loaded), is within a separate movieclip, over the loader.
I am going to be working on a site that has various mechanical products for sale. The customer wants me to make a model and movie of each product to show how the product works. Here is an example product:
Flash Clip The problem I am having is, he wants the movie to only play when a user puts their mouse over the video. I attempted doing this with a mp4 file and it worked using jQuery, but only when in Chrome. Here is that link:
MP4 Clip I want these demos to be viewable by the largest possible audience, so I was trying to stay away from Flash (also because I don't know Flash very well if at all). Does anyone know of a way to get this video to work in other browsers like in the second example? If not, how can I achieve that same idea using Flash?
I am trying to place buttons inside a movie clip to control the timeline of the same movie clip. This does not seam to work like buttons on the main timeline. When I play the movie the cursor does not turn into a hand and the rolloever affects only sort of work. I have read about controling the movie clip with buttons on the main timeline, but I need one of the buttons to change halfway through the movieclip. I want to be able to jump to interior shots while in the exterior section and vice versa. It would seem that button would work the same way inside a movie clip as they do on the main timeline, but that does not appear to be the case. I am using CS3. Action scrip 2.0 is selected, but I could change it to 3.0 if it would make a difference.

View 3 RepliesMy question is probably very simple, all I am trying to do is control "myMovie_mc".I have created four buttons "up_btn", "down_btn" etc.I can get the movie clip to move each time I rollover a button.How do I get continuous movement when I keep my cursor over a button?
View 2 RepliesI have five audio clips that need to be played when their corresponding button is clicked, but need to be stopped when the same button is clicked or when another one is clicked and when the user clicks out of the movie clip to get back to the main interface.

var sound1:Sound = new Yield();
var mySoundChannel:SoundChannel;

View 1 RepliesI am trying to load a movieclip and have it be controlled by a play and a pause button. The load works good and the code for the play/pause works.
I need the "test2" file to load the "ball_mc" file and then I should be able to play and pause the ball as it runs across the screen. I think I need it to be a swf file also, but Flashkit won't let me upload that type of file.
I'm making a demo project for myself to learn. The project is somewhat similar to "The Story of Stuff" website.But I making this demo and going step by step. I have a small working project but the video clips are embedded and now I'm launching them externally using the flv playback component.I have only made the very first video clip external that is loaded in using the component. The rest of the clips are embedded.
As you can see I made this so when the picture icons appear and when you click on one the video pauses and when you click the close button on the small window that pops up the video resumes.(un-pause)
Basic time line controls. (Linear)
But of course this does not work when I load the clip externally using the flv playback component.My question is , how can I control (Play/Pause) the flv playback instance(s) with my existing icons?

Can someone help me finding a tutorial or explain to me how I can make a image gallery where I can click next / prew button AND have a play / pause button? I have accomplished to make both but not in the same flash file. I believe I have search the whole internet and tried everything (but off course that's not really possible). I have learned to make at least 6 different types of image gallerys now, but none of them works with both next/prew AND play/pause.
View 2 RepliesI can do this in AS2 but am struggling in 3. I've got the Play/Pause working and toggling and the Stop button stopping but I can't get the Play/Pause to toggle when the Stop button is pushed.

I have a couple of movies to add controls to and the consist of a series of layers with classic tweened movie clips. There is a button layer set up along with all the buttons, and an AS3 layer set up. This is the initial code I set up on the AS3 layer first frame:
Code: Select allstop();
innercircle.stop();
go.AddEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startplaying);
function startplaying (event:MouseEvent):void {
play();
innercircle.play();
}
innercircle is a movie clip which runs throughout the entire movie, so that's why I picked it to use in the command above. When tested this should enable the play button to work, however it's not working and brings up this error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method AddEventListener through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton.
Anyway, you see that the sound is on a seperate layer, with gotoandplay(1); or w/e on the end... so it indefinetely loops if left to it's own devices.
Now the actions for the play arrow button are:
[Code]....
Techincally, as to my VERY BASIC A/S knowledge, this should work right? I also tried instead of "on (release)" I tried "onClipEvent (mouseUp)"
I have 2 buttons (play and pause)...on my main movie. I would like for these 2 buttons to play and pause entire movie (different flash movies into 1).
On my play button I have mc = playbutton
And the as for this is the following:
Code:
on (release) {
play();
_root.pause._visible = true;
_root.playbutton._visible = false;
}
on my pause button I have mc = pause
and the as for this is the following:
Code:
on (release) {
stop();
_root.playbutton._visible = true;
_root.pause._visible = false;
}
On my 1st frame of my main movie I have the following as:
Code:
stop();
_root.playbutton._visible = true;
_root.pause._visible = false;
My problem is that when I upload this... and test it, its not working. I also tried by removing _root. to it, but it didn't work either. I need other .swf's to pause and play too when its called from the main movie where the buttons are.
I have a glitch in Video Player. Some times when I press play/pause the button switches but the command to pause/play doesn't run, or I guess it gets called twice and continues to play. I have an on enterframe monitor running on the video. My automatic assumption is to check whether the video is playing and have the button act accordingly. But suspect this may be even more buggy.

I am going out of my mind trying to get this to work. I can do it in AS2 without a hitch - but not AS3. I just need to load an external swf file into an empty movieclip. Then I have 2 buttons play and pause that need to be on the top layer of the new movie and they need to play and pause the loaded swf file. I have tried a number of things and nothing is working.
View 1 RepliesI created a simple flash movie for a client that loops 3 times. At the end of each revolution i want to add a button that will pause the main movie action and reveal a small pop-up for legal copy when the user rolls over it, then re-start the movie again once they roll off it - however, it will only do this when the user interacts with the button, if they don't touch it, the movie will continue through the 3 loops unimpeded. Side note: I cannot use pause and play buttons, it needs to be a simple rollover/rollout function.
