ActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Set Loop Playback Points
Oct 1, 2008
I know that Flash generally has some very good video support.I am wondering if anyone knows and/or has experience with using Flash video with these types of modificatiions:
- having programic control over the video playback speed. if so, how? is there a simple FPS variable?
- also, would if be possible to slow down the video while maintaining a consistent pitch (tone) of the audio playback? ie.,if we were playing a video of a person playing guitar, we could slow it down to better see the guitar player using their skills,yet hear the song also slower but without modifying the pitch of the notes.
- also is it possible to set loop playback points dynamically? ie, to create a custom interface where the user could set loop points on an entire video that would continue to loop on that portion of the video only.
I have a video that is external, and is playing through the FLV Playback component.
I need to set Cue points in FLV video to trigger other MovieClips at certain times during FLV playback. I have read about them, but am unsure how to use them using Adobe Media Encoder. I am pretty sure I know how to set them in there, (unless there is a better way) but then how do you trigger the event?

I am sure I am just over looking some simple true/false thing somewhere but I can't figure out how to loop an external (progressive download) FLA file with the new FLA Playback Component..
I want to make an array that holds objects, each object containing an x- and y-value representing the location of each mc on screen. The mcs will not move. How do I reference each mc using a variable with a loop?
For example, if I have the mcs mc_0, mc_1, mc_2, mc_3, ... mc_49
I want to...
Code:
var n = 50; var myArray:Array = new Array(); for (i = 0; i < n; i++){ myArray.push(
I have a movie clip that needs to loop inside a movie clip in Flash. Would someone post the code to paste into the ActionScript window? The .flv has no skin on it. I have done this so that I can put the video file outside of the Flash movie.
I am making a little flash animation, and for this one scene, I need an animation to loop over and over, while a soundtrack plays underneath.
My sound file is 867 frames long. My animation is 20. I want the animation to loop every 20 frames, and the sound to loop every 867. I tried with making the animation loop by itself, and it started the sound from the beginning every 20 frames. While the sound beneath it was still playing.
In other words, is there a way so that a sound layer is not affected by the looping of the animation?
I have been tasked with trying to create a drawing tool that draws dotted lines as you drag the mouse across the stage. I can easily capture the points on MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE and store them in a vector and then draw the points as dots:
The problem is that I need to calculate evenly distributed points on an ever growing Vector of points so I can only draw the line between say every 5th point (say using modulus). I have been battling away with Bezier curve equations both Quadratic and Cubic but still can't quite figure out how to convert my Vector of points into an evenly distributed Vector of Points without sucking the life from the CPU.
I am trying to create a mindmap where the user can drag points about the screen. I have gotten as far as drawing the line via actionscript, and drag+drop the points (defined as movie clips on stage). This is the existing script - I don't know how to get the lines to follow the points. Something to do with ENTER_FRAME or updateAfterEvent?
var line:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); line.graphics.lineStyle(1,1); line.graphics.moveTo(ptOne.x,ptOne.y);
i'm trying to do an infinate loop for my m.clip.the looping part does not want to loop...it loops back to my firrst frame even though there are two same picture in the movie clip.....here's a sample of what i use for the infinate loop script..
I have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop. The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure. Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly. My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this: While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc. How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.
basically I need a loop within a loop to compare two different arrays in my actionscript3 lottery game. I have attempted the loop but I cannot seem to get it to work ...
[Code]....
So basically within this code check_win is a button. Once the button is clicked it runs the loop. It is meant to take an instance of matches which contains 6 properties and loop until index is greater than matches. According to my output this is happening but the second loop doesn't appear to do anything.
How do i word a for loop to make it loop through multiple arrays?I want 1 for loop to loop through multiple arrays in order to move/alter objects.I want to keep the arrays separate.
ActionScript Code: characters = new Array(); characters[0] = male;
I'm trying to make a matching pairs game. First of all I'm making all the tiles, using a loop inside a loop. How do I get the ID of an item inside that loop? My code looks like follow:
Code: var matches:Array=new Array(1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8); makeTiles(); function makeTiles() {
the loop starts at 0 and not 1 so the loop ends at 6 does any one know how to resolve this issue?? its so that what ever number dayVal is it will be rounded up to a number that is Divisble by 7 .
Basically, I have data organized by date in an XML file. I'm trying to make a website application that will allow the user to click on a date (in a text field) to see another textfield populate with all the data under that particular date. So far, all the information loads into the textboxes at the same time. How can I get it to only load information under a particular date when somebody clicks on that date?
Before I started this project, I was convinced I could do this by manipulating the [j] (see code below) in the myFunc2 function. Currently, it's set up to increment blank_mc._y by whatever value is returned by [j]. But for some reason this doesn't work. I feel that if I could atleas get this part to work - I could probably do the rest.
AS code:
Code: function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { var nodes = this.firstChild;
wondering if anyone knows if its possible to have a pause within a 'for loop' before it runs through the next loop? heres the script i've built up so far, i'm running off other variables and arrays to pull in the logos and the animating in is working fine except that they all run in at the same time, basically what i want is that they would run one after the other with a 5 second gap between them..[code]so i did that and put wait(delay); after the var boxcounter=2; in each of the If statements.. but no luck... can anyone shed any light? or suggest a way it get it to hold for a few seconds before running though the loop again? or am i going about this in completely the wrong way??!
I am following a good tutorial here:URl...And it uses the following example file to display an embedded FLV movie:URL...I am having a problem editing the cue points. If I open the compenent inspector for the FLVPlayback, and then open the cuePoints dialog, I should be able to add, remove, or modify cue points. However, I can't edit anything in the dialog at all. It seems locked.The tutorial clearly states you should be able to edit the points.
[URL]In the tutorial, it says I should be able to edit cue points for the FLV video. I open the component inspector and the cuePoints dialog. All the cue points are listed, but it won't let me edit them. They seem ti be locked. I need to be able to edit cuepoints within flash for a linked flv file.

I am SUPER confused on how to make use of the cue point that I embedded in my FLV.It is called "END", is at time 00:00:46.114 and is Event type.How do I go about calling an action, say loader.loadMovie("info.swf), when the movie reaches that point?
I'm currently streaming a video with AS2 using netstream.I have already found out how to pause my video on certain cue points, however I do not know how to skip to certain cue points.Basically I have buttons, which will each skip to a certain part of the video.All my cue points are embedded in the FLV.To pause my video I have the following code:[code]Any help on how I can use the buttons to skip to say "SecondCue" and "ThirdCue"?
I have a video with 2 embedded cue points (event). The video player uses NetStream and is NOT a FLV Playback component. I can trace them and see both name and time with this:
