FLVPlayback And Cookie State Check
Aug 30, 2009
I have been at this for 5 hours and I'm about to pull all my hair out.I have a seemingly very simple problem that I can NOT find any reason for why it's happening.I built a simple flash doc that has three distinct pieces in it (2 frames):
1) A FLVplayback component on frame 1 - (working)
2) An AS listener that checks for end of Video and progresses to 2nd frame - (working)
3) a cookie script that checks to see if the video has been played and if it has skips frame 1 and goes to frame 2 (also working)
The video successfully plays the first time and moves to the 2nd frame. But, when the document is reloaded it checks the cookie (finds it) skips the 1st frame, moves to the 2nd BUT it does NOT display ANY of the elements in the 2nd frame. NOTHING!! There is a simple graphic and button that allows the users to replay the video (by simply clearing the cookie and going back to Frame 1) but they do not show up. (However, they DO show up if the video plays first and moves to frame 2 via the listener, just not via the cookie).I have placed traces in each frame to show if it is indeed arriving on frame 2. It is, but NOTHING shows.I have rebuilt the FLA step by step testing each time and have found that it works perfectly, right up until the FLV Component is dropped in. Then it moves to the 2nd frame and shows NONE of the 2nd frame elements. URl...

I'm using the FLVPlayback to load streaming videos from a FMS. The bug that I'm running into is with the buffering state. Several times the video will enter a buffering state that never ends. The last video event that's fired in this scenario is the BUFFERING_STATE_ENTERED. But if I seek the video on the seekbar, it's playing away.

Is it possible to check for pressed keys without using the KeyboardEvent?
I have an ENTER_FRAME event setup called enterFrameHandler and I want to check within the function enterFrameHandler if any keys are pressed.
normally when using a KeyboardEvent I could check for keys easily using a switch that checks the KeyCode of the event, but in an ENTER_FRAME event this isn't possible for me.
Is there any other way of checking the keyboard's state within the ENTER_FRAME event?
UPDATE:
I found this AS2 script:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= power;
[Code]....
This seems to be doing what I want, but it's in AS2, does anyone know how to 'translate' this into AS3?

Any best way to script several MCs (acting as buttons) so that on release(), the alphas on the others tween to 20. When you go to click one of the dimmed button, its alpha should tween back to 100 and the previous one that had the full alpha should now fade to 20. Logically, I know I need to somehow implement a variable to check the state of the MC and an if statement to script the actual alpha tweens but I'm confused as how to actually implement it. Where to put it etc.

I'm using the FLVPlayback class to play my FLV files.
If I'm trying to play a FLV file which is not existed yet then I am getting a "VideoError: 1000" with message of Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server.
I want to check for the FLV file existence using the file URL or path, before playing that FLV by FLVPlayback.

I have a flash map that contains 51 movieClips, one for each state.Sample instanceName for a state (Alabama) would be: S_01
I have a XML record that contains specific info for each state.<stateID>01</stateID
I am trying to link the stateID's in the XML record to the state movieClips that make up the map.var stateInstanceName = 'S_' + stateID;
I was just trying to do a simple trace command to see if I could pull the _width of each state clip to see if I was linked up:
trace(mapInstance.stateInstanceName._width)

It's my understanding that view states can be useful when switching the layout of design elements. Such as, a loading page as one state and the main application design in another state. Is this the correct use of them? Additionally, I have a label in State1 and I cannot figure out how to access that label via actionscript. labelID.text = "New Text"; is not working.

I need to add a rollover effect to the disabled state of a Spark button. This way, users can rollover the button and know why the button is disabled.I think I would have to override ButtonBase's getCurrentSkinState. Is there anyway to test if a mouse cursor is over a disabled button?

I'm using Flex 4.5 and trying to take advantage of the new state groups feature. I have two States (call them readType1 and readType2) that both belong to the same stateGroup (call it readOnly). There are several places where I'd like to do something based on the current state, and it would be the same thing for the two read states. [code]...

I want to fade all the elements of the next state when transitioning from any state.I tried different things but I can't get it to work. And I don't want to manually add transitions for every state.
Something like:
<s:Transition fromState="*" toState="*">
<s:Fade target="*" duration="500" />
</s:Transition>

In my view I have a welcome screen:
[Code]...
Which is a pretty small component and I have panelContainer:
[Code]...
Whilst the user is reading the warm and fuzzy welcome note in the welcome state I want to be creating the big expensive panels state so taht when we switch there is no delay. Before the panels state is set panelView is null but I presume there must be an IDefferredInstance floating around somewhere that I can use to kick off the creation of the view. How can I get hold of it?

I am trying to get converted to Actionscript 3 from AS2.In old versions of flash, you simply placed the sound in a keyframe inside the button on the over or down state. Worked fine, but not anymore.I guess the sound must be set up with actionscript and a listener.I understand linkage. how to make one sound on the over state and a different one on the down state?

I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I really don't know what that refers too.

I made a blog widget in flex. I need manipulate cookie in my widget which is added to my user's blog. But under some circumstance, some blog hosts forbid accessing to javascript, so i can not access cookie in flex by externalInterface. Does anyone know how to access cookie in this context?

I have a question that I cant quite start.I have a web site that record some cookies: name, age, sex, etc.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a flash banner that display this information, like: hello [name], how are you doing today?
I was searching online and everything that I found needs something outside flash to work.
Is that a way to create a flash that can read cookie's values and show then?

I already tested SharedObject class in native actionscript trying to get the arbitrary name of cookie from local system but it doesn't work.For your information, I am working with cookie returned from user's browsing sites (not my own sites). That's is to get some cookie values resulting from browsing of site A from user in order to work with my own application.

Long time leecher, decided to join in and ask a question. I have a video auto play on a site i am working on [URL].. Issue is, it auto plays every time the page loads...
Is there a way for me to set a cookie that flash could look for and either choose a welcome back video or not auto play video?
EDIT: SharedObject is awesome. Ignore this i did it.

I have developed a flash application with .NET. That application is something like image cropping. That is user can upload any image from anywhere. after he cropped that image we save that particular cropped image in .NET. The problem is the cookie set into the Temporary internet files. That is If I have uploaded a image for cropping then I have to save that cropped image. Once again I have upload the new image for cropping. But in flash that new uploaded image file is not displays. It always displays the image file which I was uploaded at first time. This was occurred in both IE & Firefox browsers.

I remember that in flash 8 you needed to read the cookie via php script to get it into flash. Has that changed in CS4? Is it possible to read the cookie directly from the swf now? If not how does one go about getting cookie information into flash CS4?

I have js all set up and tested to check for cookie. If cookie set I ant to disable the swf.
The code in my AS is as follows::
import fl.video.*;import fl.video.MetadataEvent;import flash.external.ExternalInterface;import flash.system.fscommand;//-----------------------------------------function
[Code]....
and have this in the init() called by page load it does not work. I was going to use the play variable to kill the loading of the swf but can't figure out how best to make that work.
So, my questions:
Best way to facilitate this action:
1. In AS by calling the function by:
a. Timeline
b. AS callback from <body onLoad
2. Using js to call the fucntion in the external js and then blocking loading of the swf in the html page.
I don't want to spend anymore time exploring alternatives as this is very frustrating. I am assuming that 1.b is the best route.

We have a flash video that was created for our project, we dont the source so we have to work around the compiled flash file. We are going to host the video on our domain and the video creates a sol cookie (flash cookie) file to store how far the user has proceeded though the video. So my plan is to access this cookie to see how far the user has progressed and then fire an event when they have finished the movie.
I have been googling for some help but haven't found to much. I have found out that its possible to do in javascript and I have found some .net sol file viewers but haven't seen any examples I can get my mind around.
I have watched the traffic that gets created with fiddler and every time the next button is clicked a new request is fired with the swt file that is being accessed. I would also be happy with tracking every time one of these swt files has been accessed as well.

I'm hoping to get pointed in the right direction here. The problem I'm having is trying to figure out how to read an HTML created cookie in Flash. I have a video player that should autoplay once in a 24hour period, the next day it should autoplay again for the end-user.This is what the script on the HTML page looks like that displays the Flash player and the cookie:[code]I did some searching and found this Have a HTML page play Flash movie only once (not when revisited...) but again this is just a Flash function which never allows for a restart in a certain time period.how do I read that var x(cookie) in Flash?
