this one is really doing my head in and any advice (even vague thoughts) would be really great.I have an FLVPlayback component on the stage and I am loading 8 FLVs in to 8 separate video players within it. I then play the first one and when it ends I randomly select which to play next.Everything seems to work fine except that each time I run it one or two of the clips play back with only audio only and no video. It is not the same clip each time but whichever one it is will consistently fail to playback untill I re publish when it chooses a differrent clip to fail on.I am publishing for FP8 from CS4 on a Mac and it fails when I test movie as well as in FF and Safari.
If anyone has any ideas on this at all please shout them out or I am heading for the forrest never to return
how to get flv's to load up dynamically using xml - it all works well apart from this one problem that i have.
when the thumbnail for the flv is clicked the preloader appears and the flv starts to load - but for some reason the audio begins to play almost immediately - then when the flv actually loads then the audio plays again whilst the initial (unwanted) audio carries on playing!
In my main swf file i load external swf files for each section.. In my video section i load a swf that includes a flv player that plays flv's with sound!
when i go back to menu...or go to another section....sound is still playing! why? I was thinking maybe i need to add a stop all sounds actionscript when going back to menu?
I have a flash program that loads an external flv dynamically. I first create an empty movie clip then I attach an instance of the FLVPlayback component using Moviclip.attachMovie();. Then i control the FLVPlayback component with AS2. I have a play and pause button, a scrubber, and a loading progress bar. None of these are components. When I publish and preview the file in Flash CS4, Adobe Flash Player 10, and all my internet browsers everything works fine, all the buttons, the multiple functions of the scrubber, and even the loading progress bar.
However when I uploaded all the files from my computer to my company's server and tested it from there, I recieved audio but no video. All of the various controls still worked for the audio but I couldn't see anything on the stage. If I waited for the loading progress bar to complete and then reloaded the external flv then I got video, but the purpose of this program is to stream the video and I cannot have the users waiting for a preloader.
If you want to look at my FLVPlayback code here it is:
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 have a captivate generated SWF file which has a .FLV inside it.In flash on click of a button I unload the movie(SWF), the video goes away but the .FLV still plays the audio.
I created an interactive exercise to teach music. After the correct answer is given, the user has the option to click on a button and hear a specific sound (a chord played on the piano). The sound button appears only after they give the correct answer, and they can click on it as many times as they want. There are a series of these exercises, each one on a different frame and each one with a different sound.The sound files are called in the button code.
Here's the problem. In some of the exercises, if I keep clicking on the sound button, it plays the correct sound about 20 times in a row but then it will suddenly play a different sound (a chord from one of the other exercises). Then it goes back to playing the correct sound.

Im making an animation to describe how a potential iphone app would work. Its going to be a 3 min clip not interactive at all, just plays right through showing how it would work. This is not for web. Just for presentation purposes.
By problem is this: Within the timeline, i need to embed a 20 sec clip (with audio) the plays automatically and when it ends the rest of the animation continues. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this without the audio and video being all messed or the video not exiting the screen once its finished. I hear all this talk of action script but have no clue where to start.
Audio flvs that previously would play fine no longer play. I get "NetStream.Play.Failed".This occurs when progressively playing over HTTP, i.e. starting NetConnection.connect(null) and then NetStream.play("http://url_of_my_flv");Regular RTMP playback still works.So, I've seen two posts with similar issues in the last day or so:
I'm porting in an .flv to Flash for the first time. I created the .flv from an .MP4 using Media Encoder CS5, and then opened a new Actionscript 3 .fla in Flash Professional CS5, clicked File > Import > Import Video. Then selected 'Load external video with playback component'. Everything seems to have imported fine, but when I publish the SWF and import it via Dreamweaver CS5 and preview the page, the video is there, but the controls are not. There's just a white box where the controls should be. Also, the video is out of sync with the audio, which I believe is a problem with Media Encoder, not Flash.
Here are some links:

I have a website [URL] when I go there if I click the video archives button then play a video then click on the home or photos button or one of the alternate background buttons on the left the video goes away as it should but not always the audio (especially when I click while the video is still buffering). Is there a command I can use to kill the sound from the flvPlayback component and nothing else(I have a mp3 player there also I so I don't want to use the SoundMatrix class. btw the videos are all played on an instance of the flvPlayback component.
In my CS4 flash document I have created a media gallery. It's a very simple interface that has mouse overs on thumbnail pictures, and then the larger picture will fadeUP in the center of the document. (With use of framelabels in the timeline).
In the same document, I want the user to be able to click on a video thumbnail, and that video plays back in the center of the document. Several questions: If the user clicks on the thumbnail "onrelease," the time line goes to the player, is it possible to stream this video from a youtube clip into my media player on the screen? If not and I have the document in a fl4 format, is there a simple process to have this video open? (I currently do not have the document in fl4 format).
I am trying to display local flash swfs in the WebView. I have WebView set up and it will happily display local HTML files, but when I try to display Flash, the screen is blank. The flash file is running as I can hear the audio. I have noticed that most swf players from the android market suffer the same issue.
I am currently using to in a sound player in an on the homepage of an html/asp website. At the moment it plays some welcome audio when the visitor arrives on the site (index.asp), however it does get an little annoying when it plays everytime you go onto the homepage.
Is their any way of setting a session variable in actionscript that only plays the audio once when using the site?
I have a swf that advances through a series of frames by pressing any key. I am trying to set up a timer so that on idle (no keypresses for X sec), it plays an audio clip.
My AS below works fine, but if you press keys very fast it seems to get out of sync and plays the audio almost randomly (at least faster than it should). Does anyone know what might be causing this? BTW, I have tried using a keylistener which seems to make it even worse by affecting the volume level randomly.
//ON THE INITIAL FRAME... myInterval = setInterval(callback1, 20000); function callback1()
My dilemma is that is that I have an image that when you roll over it with the mouse the words 'click to play' appear. Now when I click I want the image to disappear and the movie behind it to start playing.
I've managed to put together some action script through looking at various tutorials and posts. but when I preview my site and click the image nothing seems to happen.
The code I'm using is as follows:
import fl.video.VideoEvent; function doPlayVid(e:MouseEvent):void { tanmov.play(); this.alpha = 0;
I'm working on a Flash Projector CDROM with around 10 FLVs. These FLVs are loaded dynamically into the SWF projector using actionscript from the CD. There are 10 buttons to load each movie into the same FLVPlayback instance.
However, when I click the button to view/load the FLV, sometimes the video does not display but the audio can be heard playing. Furthermore this is happenning erratically and on randomly. It seems to get worse as the CD has been playing for a longer period.
This sounds like an issue of Flash clogging the computer's memory. Is there a way to get around this without using a 3rd-party software like Jugglor? [URL]

I ran a simple live video streaming application for the first time with actual users and ran into a couple of serious performance issues that had not turned up during testing. In this instance there was one video stream from a live web cam and used FMLE at 150 kbps using VP6 and MP3 @22k. There were 16 clients and everything worked pretty good for about 30 minutes. (although some clients said their audio and video were out of sync by up to 3 seconds)
Then individual clients would have either the video freeze or the video would continue and the audio would stop. These clints had to "disconnect" and then "connect" again to the application. This happened to all of the clients at one time or another for several minutes. I stopped and restarted the FMLE with progessively lower bandwidth settings down to 75 kbps but still clients were having the same issue.
I eventually stopped the FMLE and used the applications built in publisher at 45 kbps and that seemed to eliminate the freeze/dropping issue. But of course the video quality was very poor and some clients still reported that the audio was out of sync with the video. The server hosting the FMS application is a quad processor dell with lots of memory and network connectivity. The Flash Media Admin Console performance graph showed the total Bandwidth as 3 Mbps at maximum.
I am wanting to play a number of movie clips and flash produced video clips. On the main timeline I have a frame for each clip I want to play. In that frame is a flash movie that contains the video that I have embedded onto the timeline for the movie. The filesize for this project is massive and I am struggling to work on the file. I want to be able to play the video files with the playback component in each of the frames where the video was.
I have an flvplayback component on the stage of a parent flash project. One can preview a video that has some text overlaying it that the user entered in a previous scene. Dynamic cuepoints sync the video with the overlaying text.If the viewer doesn't like the preview they can go back to the previous scene, edit the text, and rewatch/preview the video with the overlaying text to make sure they like it.
I'm running into an issue when they stop watching the video preview, they go back to the previous scene and they return to the video preview scene. I stop the video with a .stop() and I rewind it with a .seek(0) but when they return to the video player and rewatch the video there's a brief audio pop. I'm assuming the pop is a bit of video/audio left in the buffer of the flvplayback component.
My question is - is there a way or what is the best way to clear the buffer of the flvplayback component when I rewind the video so it can be replayed?Is there a better way to rewind an flvplayback to the beginning other than .stop() & seek(0) so I don't get a audio pop when it's replayed?
What I'm trying to do is have a still image act as a button on top of a video, so that when it is pressed the image disappears and the video begins. I've placed the image and video on two seperate layers and typed the action script into the images layer.
I get no errors, however when I preview my site the moment I press the image everything on the site disappears yet I can hear the audio of the video playing.
The code I've used is as follows:
import fl.video.VideoEvent; function doPlayVid(e:MouseEvent):void { tanmov.play();
I encoded an AVI w/ Media Encoder and dropped the FLV into a Flash playback component.In my compiled SWF, the video plays in hyperspeed (like it has a really fast framerate), but the audio plays normally.It seems like an encoding issue, but could it be something in Flash?I'm guessing there's some setting mismatch -- different bitrate, framerate, dimensions?[code]...
I built a timeline based player with 2 menus and many videos that you can play.The buttons move the timeline to a frame label and the video plays. The back button has a stop function built in it so the video stops playing when its hit.It plays wonderfully locally but once on a server after a few clicks it boggs down and sometimes the audio from the last video remains playing even when prompted to stop. I was pointed to use the add and remove child functions to prevent this but being very new to Flash and 100% self taught i have zero idea on how to do this. The link to the player is[url]....Even if its a link to a tutorial or something.
