ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Video Object Removal
May 25, 2010
I have placed a video object on top of a graphic that is a link to another site. Before the user clicks the button to activate the video, they can see my background graphic and use the link. After they play the video, the background graphic is no longer visible. Is there any way to get rid of the remnants of the video after it is played so picture and link are visible again?Here is my great code:
videowindowbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, videowindowbuttonhandler);
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();nc.connect(null);var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);myvideo.attachNetStream(ns);var listener:Object = new
[code]....

Below is the function I use to remove the swf which holds an FLVPlayback component and the button that runs the function. The function stops the video then removes the swf. The swf disappears and the sound stops but if I look at the task manager I notice the video is still loading usually at about 1 meg every 5 seconds. I know I'm supposed to be able to use the closeVideoPlayer method which should stop the netstream but I don't how to make it work
function goHome(e:MouseEvent):void myMovie.stop(); this.parent.parent.removeChild(this.parent);// myMovie.closeVideoPlayer(0); meCombo.removeEventListener(Event.CHANGE,

I noticed something dangerous while working with AS3 - some objects (namely DisplayObjects / MovieClips) tend to remain in the memory and even perform actions after all references to them have been removed.
I work with Flash CS 5.5 and Flash Builder 4.6.
After getting rid of all references (including removeChild(...) from the Document Class) some objects just seem to stay alive.
This question might come off as a bit broad - but what I am trying to understand is what can I do to MAKE SURE that an object is picked up by the Garbage Collector? More so, how can I get some sort of feedback from the GC that signifies that a certain object has been destroyed? (For example, a console message)

I have question regarding removing instantiated objects. Let's say i have a main class in which i instantiate a custom video player (or whatever) class:
[Code]...
From my experience, if i don't destroy for example event listeners from my VideoPlayer class and just remove VideoPlayer class the way described they still get fired with null exception messages etc. This is something that's bugging me for a while so i would really like to know what's best thing to do here?

I have some code that generates dynamic movie clips,and puts them into an array.That all works fine, but at the end of the scene, I want to be able to stop the movie clips being generated, and clear them from my screen. I can clear one at a time, but I need to stop them being generated.
Code:
enemies = [];
evilBreak = setInterval(evilSpawn, 2000);
function evilSpawn() {
evilguy = attachMovie("evil", "evil"+_root.getNextHighestDepth(), _root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:random(550)+50});

I am trying to put together a class for playing video using the Video object. So far, I have only been successful in getting the Video object to fully work when not using a class setup. In the documentation, I have read that to use the Video object you have to actually drag/create the video object onto the stage. So, in my next attempt, I created the video object onto the stage within a MovieClip but still trying to use a class/linkage setup with the Video inside inside of a MovieClip container. No luck there either. Here is the basic AS2 script that is linked to a MovieClip that contains the Video object ("video" instance) within it.
Code:
class VideoTest {
private var nc:NetConnection;
private var ns:NetStream;
[code].....
I am getting the following error with this script.
Code:
Line 14: There is no property with the name 'video'.
Line 15: There is no method with the name 'video'.

I'm pulling some events out of a MySQL db, parsing to an XML file, and having flash pull that in. All works fine, but I'm encountering an XML tag, and I'm not 100% sure why. I searched but the keywords are so vague I didn't find anything of value.
[Code]....
So with one event, it works fine. With more than one, I get in the info.eventNameTxt textfield something like <name>Christmas Afterbash</name>. how to circumvent this? I haven't quite been able to wrap my head 100% around the E4X stuff.

ActionScript Code:
if (pMenu.AccSel.iconSel.child != undefined) {
pMenu.AccSel.iconSel.removeChildAt(0)
}
i was trying to do a child removal method that would work on command instead of me trying to find a child to remove each time in the code... it would find and remove it wisely... however, i've tried this method and it doesn't work... and i was wondering if there was another way for actionscript to check for Children and if there are any it'll remove it...

I have 2 .as files so far, one for the main game and one for the boulders that come hurdling down the screen. I can get the boulders added to the game fine and the animation is fine too but I don't know how to remove the boulder once it goes offscreen (it just keeps floating downwards) so obviously this is not good since after a few levels, there will be 100's of boulders there wasting CPU cycles and memory space I've tried removeChild and parent.removeChild but neither work
Here is my Boulder.as file:
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.getTimer;

The structure I have is one where I have a main.swf which loads an external swf named say external1.swf. Then external1.swf loads external2.swf. My question is when I remove external1.swf, is external2.swf also removed by proxy from the display list or do I have to explicity remove external2.swf using removeChild on the relevant loader?

I have an MC of a sea texture which was created using clouds in Photoshop, and uses AS to fade in & out a child MC to look like waves moving back & forth. (The PS image fades to transparent where its close to each side to aid blending).
The user is able to pan the containing MC infinitely so I need some way of automatically overlapping a new instance when the pan gets close to the edges of the MC, but because its a large MC needs to also remove the MCs greater than distance x from the edges.

So the problem is basicly this: It all works just fine, but when the bullet hits the target it gets destroyed (this is ok) but also any bullet that was shoot before it (meaning also: with a lower y) gets destroyed aswell wich is anoying. Here's the code (left the comments so you can find your way around easier)
Code:
stop();//add a stop function too!
enemyspeed =1
life=3
var gameOver:Boolean = false;

I am relatively new to flash and action script as well and I am having a problem getting the sprite to be removed after another is called.I am making emission spectrum's of 3 elements by dynamically generating the mask over a picture on the stage. Everything works perfectly fine with the code I have right now except the sprites stack on top of each other and I end up with bold lines all over my picture instead of a new set of lines each time i press a button.I have tried using try/catch to remove the sprites and I have also rearranged the entire code from what is seen here to make 3 seperate entities (hoping I could remove them if they were seperate variables) instead of 2 functions that handle the whole process.

I'm going to start by saying that i am very new to flash and the concept of Stage is still very new to me.
I have the following problem: at a given time i have:
var foo:MyClass() = new Class();
stage.addChild(foo);
...
foo = new myClass();
stage.addChild(object);
so now i have two or more foo objects on stage. my variable is for one foo, and i need to remove them all from the stage.

I have a registration module done in flash where i create a movie clip like this:var container:MovieClip = _level0.printCardpls.createEmptyMovieClip("contain er", this.getNextHighestDepth());and on completion i go to frame one. Where I would like to check to see if it exists and then delete it if it sill does. Then when the user hits frame 15 for example where it gets created again, its fine.

I am creating an actionscript video player in Haxe and to avoid the asyncError I am trying to create a custom Object. How do I do this is Haxe? The client property specifies the object on which callback methods are invoked. The default object is the NetStream object being created. If you set the client property to another object, callback methods will be invoked on that other object. Here is my code.
public function new()
{
super();

I'm having an issue where I am placing a timer inside of a MovieClip instance which is dynamically placed on stage. When I remove the MovieClip from the stage, the timer keeps on running. It is sometimes a bit complicated to be able to stop all the timers inside of this MovieClip so I was wondering if there was a way to either destroy the MovieClip instance and thus destroy the timers within it? or how could I go about making sure the timers stop when their parent Object is not on stage.

I have multiple MXML custom components that I add on the fly (using a repeater) that is binded to an ArrayCollection. So everytime I add/remove item from the ArrayColleciton new items show/disappear from the screen. Is there a straightforward way to make item fade in when they get created and fade out when they are removed? I thought of using states and state transition effects but that will make things a bit complicated at different part of my application for those components to manage the states.

Whenever I remove an event listener to a button then that button no longer works. Does it cause memory leaks to not remove these listeners.....come to think of it I have about 30 eventListeners that I cannot remove otherwise the application ceases to function correctly. Is my application a memory black hole? How should i proceed with garbage collection?

In as3, I've created my own video object to play an flv file. The code starts out something like this:[code]...I would like to attach a .swf skin for it but cannot find any examples on how to do it. All examples are instructions for adding code to a instance of the FLVPlayback object.My question is can you only attach skins to the FLVPlayback object?

I am trying to stream an FLV file into a Video object by attaching a netStream using attachNetStream(). This works fine for local files as well as downloading files from a different domain; however, I am trying to download an FLV from php file that sends these headers:
Content-Type: video/x-flv Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="video.flv"
The netStream object responds as though there is no problem, outputting:
NetStream.Play.StartNetStream.Buffer.FullNetStream.Buffer.FlushNetStream.Play.StopNetStream.Buffer.Empty
But The video does not play on the Video object. If I download the video from that php link and save it locally, then have the netStream load it from there, it works just fine.
Why is this happening? I was trying to use URLStream as a way around this, but I couldn't figure out a way to attach a URLStream to a Video.

As simple a problem as the title says. I must be doing something really stupid. I've got a large section of a site, built a month ago runs fine. Went to make some changes. Now when I compile the video instantiantion fails. I've gone back to basics to test this problem out and it persists.So, here's my document class:package sections{import flash.display.MovieClip;import flash.media.Video;public class LocketVideo extends MovieClip{private var _vid:Video = new Video(200, 200);public function LocketVideo() {trace("hi there");}}}When I compile the swf I get the following error:/Projects/[omitted]/Src/sections LocketVideo.as, Line 9 1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0.( line 9 is the _vid line )Now, if I pull out the parameters of the video object it works fine... well compiles fine. A video object without a size isn't much use. Note that if I don't set parameters... all other calls to the object fail.My first thought was that my default Flash classes got corrupted. Nope. Ran this compile on two other computers, same issue. Also thought maybe I had the fla set to the wrong .
