I'm having a major problem stopping video that is played in an external SWF. I've added the external SWF file via the addChild method. However, when I remove it the video's audio keeps playing. The only other solution if I can't figure it out is rebuilding the site in AS2.
View 7 RepliesI suppose the title says it all. I can load an external video file (FLV) and I can have it play. I also have the custom buttons made to control the clip. The only thing I have left to do is to have the main timeline move onto frame 2 once the external video reaches its end. I am using actionscript 3 and flash cs 5.5.
View 7 RepliesI'm building a flash web site and I'm loading external SWF files to a main SWF. One of these external SWF loads videos using a FLVPlayback Component. The problem I have is when a video is playing and you press another link in the main SWF the other section loads but the video keeps playing in the background, eventhough every time a load a new external SWF I use the unload() method to unload the previous SWF.
View 3 RepliesI have 2 frames in an "enemy" movieclip, and frame 1 contains a movieclip with an idle animation, and frame 2 contains a movieclip with a throwing animation. I want it to play the throwing animation, and then go back to the idle animation. But all things I tried always make it loop. I tried around with if currentframes = totalframes and gotoAndStop etc but it doesn't want to work. I have my code in an actionscriptfile, however I also tried putting code on frames and it doesn't work.
View 3 RepliesIs there way to make function in Action Script, or any other language, to stop all currently played youtube videos in current Tab?
Here's example, There are 10 youtube video objects on the site, i wanna have one button, to simply make them stop playing.
So, is there way to do this, and if yes, could you give any advices/directions where i can learn the technique?
I have a sporadic bug where sometimes when a video is played the video doesn't show up for about 10 seconds but the audio is there.
i'm using flash as3:
_video = new Video();
_sound = new SoundTransform();
var connection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

I've uploaded a video produced by Camtasia, but it's not played at all! Have a look: [URL] You see that the video is being downloaded, but not played.
The player is ARPlayer 1.7. The video is a mp4 file.
The file is perfectly played on a local computer, but after uploading to ftp stops being played. I don't why...
P.S. It's interesting that if I make simply an swf-video file, it's played good: [URL]. But I don't like this option, because the swf-video is 30MB vs 5MB of the mp4-video.
I am going to be revamping a required annual intranet training session for employees. For the first time, we are interested in including a video instead of having employees page through html screens/jsps.However, we need some sort of accountability. For example, we previously required that employees answer a multiple choice question correctly every few screens. No record was kept of attempts to answer; the application simply wouldn't proceed until the correct answer was selected.For the purposes of using the video, we'd simply like to verify that the video played thru (no fast forward).I've been perusing the different Events available and don't see exactly what I was hoping for.What would be the best approach to this? Should I disable the drag bar/fast forwarding and include code that checks to see if the video stopped and the buffer is empty?

_alpha: 100, time: 4.000000E-001, transition: "easeOutCubic"});

I am looking for a way to track if a video has already been played on someone's internet browser. I have a still image that comes to life from a video, so I really dont want to use controls but on the flip side the video will always play on launch of the page. I provided a mute button to give some control to stop sound but this is a site that gets a lot of repeat traffic. My client has contacted me saying that they have recieved several emails from users saying that the more they travel to the site the concept becomes less edgy and more annoying. I was wondering if anyone has ideas how to solve the issue I am facing. Is there a way to track cookies, cache, or temp internet files through actionscript?

View 1 RepliesI am looking to add closed captioning to video being played via Netstream. The "cuePoints" and text-data would be pulled from an external XML file. I am tinkering around with different libraries/add-ins but not having much luck. I've read that you cannot add cuePoints to a netstream programmatically.

View 6 RepliesI am loading the external movie, "1.swf" into my main stage. Is there a way that once "1.swf" has loaded, I can trace its timeline and when the playhead reaches the last frame, trigger an action? (load "2.swf").
"1.swf" was created by a 3rd party and I do not have the source files, so I have no way of adding actionscipt to it.
I would like to track when a .swf or preferably a .flv video has been accessed or played. Is there action script I can enter in the .swf or .flv to send an email when video is played?

How does flash know which video is currently being played? Basically I want to set it up so that there is a 'activeVideo' varible that updates based on what video is currently being played.
I'm making a basic flash website, and have already created the site structure, but I'm having trouble adding FLV and SWF, as they aren't responding as I would like.
1) I have built a basic flash photo gallery, and it works great. I have exported the SWF, but when I add that to my main sites keyframe, it plays non stop, and the buttons on that embedded SWF don't work.
2) After adding a FLV video to a keyframe, it works as I would like. Except that when I click to another keyframe after starting the video, it keeps playing. How would I be able to pause/stop the video if a navigation button to other keyframes are clicked.
I can't seem to get around my video and audio files starting when I arrive at the page. I'm even using some example code with start and stop buttons. This is in CS4 Flash. I expect it's because the ActionScript is in the wrong place because when I run the movie it flashes through all of the pages on the site without stopping at the home page. Is there some generic code that will allow me to simply swap out the name of the video or audio file I want to start. If there is, do I need to locate it on its own layer at the top of the timeline?

View 13 RepliesI have a frame where I have added an flv playback component to play a flv file. Everything plays fine, but when I test the file and navagate away from the frame that the playback component is on, the video continues playing.
Is there any way to get the video to stop when the user navigates away from the frame? I'm sure this could be done if I add the video using AS 3.0 (that is what the navigation of the site is coded with).
In my website i have some videos. When i import the video.swf to my main swf. everything works fine. But if i navigate away from the video part the video goes away but the sound keeps playing.
I dont want to use the flash.media.SoundMixer.stopAll() function becasue i have a jukebox player that i want to work inbetween. and dotn want it to stop when you navigate the menu. It only stops when you go to Videos.
Here is the code i use:
var image:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(image);
image.x = 95;

What can i put in the news button to make the sound from the video stop.
I'm using Flash CS4, and all the actionscript so far has been Actionscript 3. I have some videos in my project -- this is being exported as an exe for cd distribution, rather than a website thing. So each video is wrapped inside a movie clip, which is wrapped inside another movie clip that deals with playing/pausing it, which is wrapped inside another movie clip that gives scrollbox functionality, which is placed on the stage. On the main timeline is a keyframe every frame, each of which has a stop() action, so that each frame is essentially a different "page" and you can navigate between these with menu buttons which call gotoAndStop().
The problem is, if the video is playing when you click a button to navigate to another frame, it continues playing even though it's no longer on the screen. You can hear the audio in the background. In addition to this, if you navigate to a frame four frames ahead, and each of the frames in between has a video, all those videos will start playing in the background as well.
I want to make sure that when you are on a particular frame the only video which will play is the video on that frame. If there is no video on that frame, no video should play. I was hoping that I could just catch the moment when you move away from the frame and call stop() on the video there, but I can't seem to catch that point. The FRAME_EXIT event seems to catch the end of the render loop or something so that it happens every time it draws the frame, rather than when you actually leave the frame and move to another one. In addition, I'm not sure catching the point where you move past a frame would help the problem with videos from in-between frames being started, as those frames are never entered so presumably never exited either.
Ok so i have a video on my page which plays automatically when the user goes on the pageWhat i want to happen is when the user clicks a button away from the page, the video and the sound all stop so it can't be heard in the background.Other pages have videos on, therefore can't use stopallsounds.
View 2 RepliesAll i want to do is make a video streaming in a video object to stop on a cue point, and play from abother when a button is pushed. It's relatively simple, right? Wrong. Over a hundred $s in how-to books and several hours wasted searching online later and I have nothing. I have checked and re-checked the cuepoints are correct (i made them in flash video encoder CS3) and tried just about everything as far as AS is concerned. Here is my latest attempt: (obmintro is the player instance name, i have the rtmp info in source under player parameters and it plays fine)
import fl.video.MetadataEvent;obmintro.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cp_listener);function cp_listener(eventObject:Object):void{if (eventObject.object.name == "site_end");{ obmintro.pause();
//i have also used stop, stop("obmintro"); and i don't even know what else.}}
I have a button on a page with a video running. i want the button to open an html form I have already set up and i want the video to stop playing. i tried this code and it achieves neither objective.
my code on the button:
on (press) {
}
stopAllSounds();
getURL(become_member.html);
I have a main flash file that loads in a second swf. In the second swf I have two movieclips that have been exported as "vidplayer" and "vidplayer2" in the linkage.Each of these movieclips contain an FLVplayback component which automatically plays when the movieclips load. The movieclips are triggered by a .as file which is linked to the document class of the second swf.Anyway, the problem I am having is that I would like to put in a fullscreen button into my main flash file. When I click the fullscreen button, the video that is playing takes over the whole screen and all of the other graphics disappear. I would like the whole flash file to become fullscreen and not just the video.
After searching for a while I found that you can put in: FLVplayback.fullScreenTakeOver = false; (where " FLVplayback" would be the instance name of the FLVplayback component that is playing the video), to stop the video from taking over.My problem is that since my FLVplayback component is part of another SWF that is loaded in, and it's also part of two different linked movieClips that are controlled by a .as file. I don't know what instance name to give my FLVplayback components.
I have three (youtube) videos embedded in Flash. Every time a new video is a loaded, the sound video from the old video continues to play. I have tried using removeMovieClip(); and I have tried stopAllSounds(); I have tried 'delete video_mc'. Nothing seems to work!

// Video Script
// Default - We'd Drink
// show this video on load
showDefault();
videoBtn1.onRelease = showDefault;
function showDefault(){

I'm new to actionscript, and don't understand the basics of the code's structure, but I've looked around a bit on here, and unless I'm missing it, I can't find how to stop a sound on the timeline. I'm using CS5, and the flash file is version 10 with AS 3.0.My website has an intro video that lasts for 16 sec with sound for all 16 seconds. I have a link to skip the intro, but when i click the link, and the time line advances to the frame that i've specified after the intro, the sound continues to play until all 16 seconds are finished.I've seen how to stop all sounds with the SoundMixer, but after the intro, I have another 2 second sound that plays as the buttons for my main links come flying into the stage. So I dont want to turn that sound off as well.here is to target the intro sound file (which i've placed in a movie clip) in the SoundMixer volume variable, but I don't know how to code that.

The picture explains my dilemma. I really want my BGvideo layer (which is an animated looping footage for the background) to be independent from the actions that I have put in to stop my button animations.
I am having a problem manipulating a loaded swf. I would like it to load, play once and not continue until told to. have looked around the web and have gotten confused.I have been using a loader, but I have read that to controll a time line you need a movieclip(?)so I had created an empty mc, and placed the loader with the swf in the mc.
