I have got 3 swf files scene1, scene2 and scene3. Out of which scene2 and scene3 are embedded inside html files named scene2.html and scene3.html. I also want to include pre-loader at every intervals between the scenes, since the total file size including images and scripts is around 4mb.
View 3 Replieshow to sequentially play external SWFs loaded into the main timeline?
I have several SWF files with short videos embedded in them. I wish to load these external SWF files into my main timeline as follows:
User Presses Button -> Play Video Clip in External SWF#1 -> Once Video Clip in External SWF#1 has Finished -> Play Video Clip in External SWF#2.
I tried achieving this by adding: var endmovie:Boolean = true; to the end of each video clip inside the external SWFs (e.g. 1.swf) then cycling through an if statement in the main timeline to see when this condition was meet:
ActionScript In Main Timeline:
Code:
var mc_Loader = new MovieClipLoader();
mc_Loader.addListener(this);
[Code].....
How is the best way to go about achieving this? Am I on the right track? (By the way, using .FLV or one long external SWF file is not really an option due to long loading times...

View 6 RepliesI have three flv files that I need to play sequentially, one right after the other in the same location (box) in an html document. I have segmented the video because of it's size. Does any one know how I would make this happen or where I can find some sort of tutorial that can assist me with this? I also have another project in which I have 4 animations that I want to play in sequence but they are in different locations on the web page.
View 1 RepliesI want to create about ten twenty second movies and then have them play sequentially.
The movies are only slightly different from each other.I don't want to make a movie that is two minutes long though. I want the movies to play in a different order on each page.
im trying to figure out a way to make a button play two movie clips one after the other in AS 2.0. I have bunch of buttons that i want to play the same MC followed by a specific MC for each button so i cant add another goto at the end of the middle clip. theres probably an easy solution to this but I only know so much about AS.
View 1 RepliesI have a page that loads loads of swfs*. I'm loading in them all at the same time, Sequentially which is slowing down the intro animation. Is there a way to load swfs sequentially? Or if not load them on a timer (half a sec would do the trick I think)
*there lots of different dynamically generated Flex graphs so it's not possible to have them all in one.

I'm trying to find a way to play a sound sequentially. In other words, I want to play a sound file from a certain point to a certain amount of time (NOT to the end). So to play a portion of that file.Now, I know I have to use mySound.start(secondOffset), but how can I stop it? Sound.onSoundComplete is not useful, as I want to stop the sound at a certain time from playing, which might not be the end.I guess that the approach is to use the Sound.position property, and to stop the sound when the position meets criteria.I've tried so far all kinds of approaches, like making a loop while the sound plays and checking the Time, but nothing seems to work.
View 1 RepliesI am building a flash header for my website. I want to have two parts. The first part is about a 10 second intro. The second part though will be a looping slideshow (It's photography site). Basically two different movie clips.Can someone give me a little help getting started? I think I can use AS (3.0) to loop the second movie but I need a way to recognize the end of a movie.
View 4 RepliesStructure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.
View 4 RepliesI have a 3 frame movie clip called "morePix" shaped like a forward arrow. The morePix.onRelease() function loads an external movie using MovieClipLoader(). When the movie loads a back arrow comes up. Eventually I will have about 5 external movies loading into this MovieClipLoader() and I will want the forward and back arrows up until I get to the last movie. I'm trying to figure out how to create a loop or an array to load these movies. I hope that makes sense. It seems easy but I'm stuck. Here's the code I have so far...
morePix.onRollOver = function (){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}
[code]....
The sequential movie clips will be pics3, pics4, etc. this is in Flash MX 2004

View 5 RepliesI need some help. I want to use several swf files and have them be called upon in a container file and play them in sequence. It's a presentation that needs to play thru but still have the ability to stop, click on items, open a popup and then continue on in the presentation. I am building all the individual "chapters" and their "sub-chapters" as swf files, with the hope that I can load them in order. I am relatively new to AS3.

View 1 RepliesI would like to create multiple swf files that play from beginning to end, then load the next one without users clicking buttons. For example, I may have files A, B, C, D, E, and F. A plays and loads B. B playes and loads C. C plays and loads D..... until F finishes playing then loads A and it starts all over. What is the best way to approach this?
View 1 RepliesI am a complete novice when it comes to flash and web design in general. I have purchased a flash template [URL] which I have been able to customise to my liking for a small production company. I am now completely stuck when it comes to integrating videos within the site.
I understand that I need to have an Xml playlist and some action script that references the videos to the player, but I have no clue on what to do.
I am looking to have a video begin as soon as the site loads and then have the buttons on the orange bar allow the user to navigate between other flv files. I would possibly be interested in including firther links on the video samples page.
I'm using AS3. I have multiple swf files to load in an array, and then play them from a master swf file. I've found scripts that can do that, but I can't find one to continuously loop through the swf files. I need a script that can load multiple swf files, then loop through them all. This is for a tradeshow display that needs to run all day. They are large files, so memory is a concern.
View 1 RepliesI have 2 buttons in my AS3 project that load .mp3 files and then play them. I have 2 buttons that switch between those files that aren't working. I get an error saying:
Error: Error #2037: Functions called in incorrect sequence, or earlier call was unsuccessful.
at flash.media::Sound/_load()
at flash.media::Sound/load()
at player_fla::MainTimeline/playMusic1()
I'm thinking that means the file isn't loaded before it tries to play, is that right? How can I check to see if the file is loaded before playing?
Here is my code:
function playMusic1(evt:MouseEvent):void{
channel.stop();
channel2.stop();
songPosition = 0;

View 3 RepliesI could create a program for him in flash which would be able to play sounds corresponding to keys on the keyboard, but split in to 3 groups, and only 1 sound from each group can be playing at a time. I don't know that much about as3, and I told him this but said I would try anyway. The first thing I came up with was this:[code]In there, there's nothing to stop the sounds overlapping or looping like in my other solution, also it's obviously a lot less compact, but I sent it to my friend like that to see if it would at least play instantly. The response I got was that, although the lag was noticeably less, it was still present.
View 3 RepliesI have been provided with some flash movies/apps to include in a web design that I am doing. These flash movies load an external xml file.This is failing.The problem appears to be that when the flash movie goes to load the file using a relative directory path, it starts at the very root of the web directory, where the main jsp file is, instead of the where the .swf file is located.[url]...
