ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Animation Stuttering On The First Execution
Sep 26, 2011I'm designing a website with flash cs4 and actionscript3. Every section is made with a movieclip, which is faded in and out when a menu button is clicked.
I've noticed that the first time I click on a menu button, the fadein or fadeout effect of the corresponding section is not fluid (I'm using caurina tweener), but it stutters and the section movieclip appears/disappears suddenly.
I suppose it may be a buffering problem, because when I click the section button for the second time, the fadein and out is fluid. I've uploaded the website on a test page, but I'm not sure if posting the link is against the forum rules...
Flash :: Forward MouseEvent In Transparent Bitmap To Underlying MovieClip
Mar 24, 2011So I'm Bitmaping some heavy stuff to try bring down the [pre-render] and [render] which is quite high according to FlashBuilder's profiling. I thought this was going well until I realised that as soon as you change a MovieClip to a Bitmap, you lose the pixel based accuracy of the mouse move events (Over, Out, Move...), all your left with is the entire bounding box of the Bitmap, something which is less than desirable. I've got a game where many Bitmapped assets would be on top of each other in a scene, on the stage, arranged in various ways and need to have that pixel accuracy moving between each one and have exhausted my efforts as to how to achieve the same mouse move results with the Bitmapped guys as normal.
This, [URL], is a FLA which shows this operation, and you can see how it works here, [URL]. When it loads up, both items on stage are drawn Shapes, encapsulated in MovieClips, both that get a glow, if you hover over them. If you click the stage at all, the purple guy gets turned into a Bitmap and now, his 'hit area', when it comes to MouseEvents is his whole bounding box and you can only get through to the back green item at the edge slivers.
I'm also tracing the pixel which the mouse is over, so I can clearly tell when the mouse is over a transparent area, it's 0, but how can I tell the event to forward itself on down the chain to the green MovieClip?
Below is how it's now pretty much working for me,
var bitmap:Bitmap = this['bitmap'];
var shouldMouseOver:Boolean = bitmap.bitmapData.getPixel(event.localX - bitmap.x, event.localY - bitmap.y);
if(shouldMouseOver)
[Code].....
I shut off mouseEnabled for my item, when I know it's wrong, then I search for another item that properly fits the bill and if there is one, send an Event to that and break. If that one's also wrong, it'll do the same again, but each time taking themselves out of the loop.
This does work exactly how I want it to, but I'd always prefer to keep things like globalToLocal and looping, and reading from arrays for not frequently updated methods like listeners to MOUSE_MOVE. Is there a more efficient way to do this?
IDE :: CS5 Stuttering Crossfades?
Jul 1, 2010My current project includes a seemingly simple animated sequence involving three .jpg files, converted to graphic symbols, each residing on individual layers of the timeline. Each occupies the entire stage of 600 x 300.The animation on each of these layers consists of the image fading from 0 to 100%, and the scaling from about 50% to 100%, over the span of 30 frames.My goal is to effect a 3-image crossfade, so the transitions are staggered between each (that is, the first level fade begins at frame 1, the second at frame 15, and the third at frame 30).
My problem is, when I initially run the sequence, the animation briefly halts at each frame within which a keyframe exists on any of the three layers. (BTW I have tried this with the new motion tween and the classic tween, so it occurs when hitting a property keyframe or a standard keyframe.)If I rerun the sequence without reloading, it displays perfectly. It is just that first run that displays the stuttering display.
CS3 Controlling Timeline Backward And Forward Inside Movieclip?
Aug 12, 2009Im trying to produce my online portfolio but for that i need to play movieclips backward and forward to various frame numbers.I found a very good script (as2) and it works great in the main timeline but inside a mc it doesnt work at all. this is the script
1. Call to Action Create an actionscript layer that extends the full length of your movie. In that layer, include the following actionscript:
function Movement() {
if (_root._currentframe > _root.mytarget){
prevFrame();
[code]....
Using the code above, the movie will play either backwards or forwards to the desired destination.As i said before this script is great but it doesnt work inside an mc.

ActionScript 2.0 :: One Button Play MovieClip Forward And Reverse?
Apr 21, 2010I have a college project to hand in within 2 days. I'm making a website and what I want to achieve is a button that plays the movieclip (which is a piece of paper going onto the stage) and when you click it again it reverses that clip. I've tried loads of things and only got code that allows two buttons to reverse and go forward.

What code would I add to have a seperate movieclip play frame by frame based on where my slider is. Ex: My slider is on the far left, seperate movieclip is at end of its timeline. If I move the slider quickly back to the beginning the movieclip plays backwards quickly to its beginning and stops.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Images Loading Into Player Stuttering Animation?
Apr 21, 2009This is a photo portfolio and displays images that scale up to view reasonably well on even a 30-inch monitor very large. So images are capped around 300k each. This in and of itself is not a problem as I've seen other sites load many images of this size with no issues. Problem I'm having is that at some point--presumably the end of the load--the size of the image causes the player to stutter and so the scrolling motion that is occurring as these images load in the background gets jacked up and looks terrible.
You can see what I'm talking about here: [URL]
I've code in place right now that adds the image to the display list only between scrolls of the enlargements, as I thought maybe the point at which the addChild hit was what was causing the stutter. I was wrong, though, and now don't know what to do. It's def the image loading that causes this as I sub-d in 30k images into the "Stills" section and the problem goes away. Also the stuttering goes away once all images are loaded into memory.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Tween Stop Stuttering - Pictures Disappear And The Color Bars Start Roaming Again
May 19, 2009I'm fairly new to AS3 and I'm trying to make a pretty complicated (for me) set of behaviors. You can see what I'm trying to do here: [URL]. The Main class sets up the crosshair, the navigation, the color bars that randomly roam the stage, and the 3 words that float around. The idea is that when you hover over a word, the color bars split apart like a curtain and two random pictures appear. Then, when you roll off the word, the pictures disappear and the color bars start roaming again.
I've got the color bars, the floating words, and the curtain split working great. My problem is bringing in the pictures. For whatever reason, 60 to 70% of the time the tween stops before it is complete. I think it has something to do with the fact that I've got a hover on a piece of text, and the mouse sometimes slips into the empty spaces between the letters, but even when I put a semi-transparent rectangle over the whole word to act as a hit area I got the same results. The ZIP with all my classes is here: [URL]. Again, I'm new to AS3 and OOP,

Media Server :: 3.5.3 Freezing / Stuttering Server Playback Of Recorded Streams
May 24, 2010I'm using the server Stream.play() method to playback a recorded stream, it plays back fine until it hits the buffer limit (Say I set the buffer to 5 seconds, it will playback fine for 5 seconds). But then it freezes and playback is very stuttery (1 frame every 2/3 seconds). Is this a know issue? I'm using windows 2008 server. I've tried a few things to resolve this but no luck. The server is running the dev license and has no load.
View 13 RepliesSlideshow Forward/back In Flash?
May 26, 2009I am doing a slideshow in Flash. With AS 2, I would create frame labels for each slide with a stop action on each one in the timeline and a button underneath the background with the following script:
on (keyPress "<Right>") {
gotoAndPlay("2");
}
The keyboard right arrow (and left arrow) would move the slideshow forward and backward. I had another button for backward.I'm doing one in AS 3 now (dictated to me) and this script isn't working.
Flash - FLV Player To Allow Scrubbing Forward?
Jan 6, 2010Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on playing FLV video on a website. I'm currently using JW player and it works great. The only problem is people can't scrub forward past what is cached. For instance, I want to click on the video and immediately click half way through it to start playing in the middle of the video. Can this be done with JW player, or do you suggest another FLV player?
View 1 RepliesFlash :: Change The Basedir In Ant To Have Forward Slashes?
Nov 25, 2009I'm using Ant with FDT 3 and I have Ant creating a jsfl to compile fla's. When I use the built in '${basedir}' property in Ant it gives me the path with backslashes() in it because I'm on Windows. The problem is that when its run through jsfl the slashes are taken as escapes. I need to know how to modify the basedir property so the slashes are converted to forward slashes. I've tried splitting the basedir on backslashes in jsfl and joining it with forward slashes as a delimiter, but the backslashes still cause problems.
So what I need to know is how to change the basedir in Ant to have forward slashes?
Flash :: Forward Port 80 To Media Server And IIS?
Apr 7, 2011FMS and IIS are set up with separate IPs on the same server. Both are configured for port 80 because others, including 1935, are often inaccessible from certain environments. Problem is, the server's behind a router. Port 80 can only be forwarded to either the IP of FMS or that of IIS. Even if the two were on separate machines, I'd still have to deal with this.
