View 2 RepliesIve made a movie that add strings from several input text fields to an array. This array is sent from the flash video to php. This is working fine when I preview the movie as Flash. The php script prints the variables as intended.
But when I preview it as html the arrays are all empty...

on (release) {
number_of_attr1 = main._currentframe + 1;
suggestions1 = new Array();

Simply put, I am making a flash midi player. I am using ENTER_FRAME for my timings. I set the framerate to 100 to ensure that the timing of each note in milliseconds is accurate. When I test the movie with CTRL + ENTER it works fine. When I publish it and open it in a browser (tested both IE and Chrome), it suddenly plays back a lot slower. I don't think it's a performance issue, since the code is very simple. If this slowdown is consistent then I can perhaps work with it so that the playback speed will be correct. Do browsers make the framerate slower or do they implement a framerate cap of some sort? What is going on?
View 2 RepliesIn frame one of "Scene 1" i have a movie clip that acts as a scrolling image banner, scene 1 is only 1 frame long and there is no scene 2 yet, or any other frames, But, when i preview, or publish, the scrolling image movie clip disappears, for like, no reason. theres no actionscript in any of the frames at all so that wouldnt be causing it somehow.
View 1 RepliesI have had to go back and update my first ever Flash/ActionScript project. I was just learning so there are 1000's of lines of code all in frame. However, it worked and at least I understand what everything means. he problem:I made a bunch of changes, always doing several tests (test movie). I then made a backup of the file (luckily). I then noticed a number of more things to change, and after changing them and fixing some typos caught by the compiler, I test again. The progress bar slides across, disappears, and my movie never comes up. I checked the folder, and no .swf is there. When I publish, the same thing happens, progress bar completes, but no file was created.
Here are some findings from my own troubleshooting:-While compiling I open the folder and see the .swf is created then deleted- Backed up version still works (as well as other files) -- suggests I changed something causing the malfunction- No compiler errors (if I purposely create errant code, it will throw compiler errors though) -- contradicts conclusion of above- Copied all code (I think, didn't document which code changed too well) that was changed between backup copy and full-up-to-date copy to new blank file and compiled fine- Re-Save As-ed the full-up-to-date copy under new name and folder -- did not fix problem -- interestingly this new file is substantially smaller than original (og. 4.5 mb new 1.8 mb) -- also while trouble shooting the original file went from 4.5 mb to 3.8 mb
- Restarted flash and then computer - did not fix- Tried testing on different computer - Errant video loaded with a runtime error #2004 unhandled IOError Error #2036: Load Never Completed -- interestingly enough I don't recall there being any loader or loading going on in the whole programI did a search, and found some recommendations for a similar problem, but for them test movie would work once and then the person would have to restart flash to test again. This is not whats happening (and I did the recommendation anyway and none worked). Each post I see the same problem as here, there are never any responses (lets hope I break this trend).
In Flash, if I Test Movie in normal mode (Ctr + Enter) I get no complaints about accessing URLs. The SWF's sandbox is "localTrusted". However when I debug Test Movie (Ctr + Shift + Enter), the sandbox is different. I then get complaints about accessing URLs; Security Sandbox Violation "...Untrusted local SWFs may not contact the Internet..." if localWithFile, and "...denied due to lack of policy file permissions..." if localWithNetwork.
Is this a "feature"? If so, I'd like to be able to turn it off. It would be nice if there was simply a warning, and not actual failure. To fix it, I could trust the file using global trust settings, but that seems silly just for debugging.
when i Control > Test Movie with an animation, the preview is not cropped to the stage size.i see eveything out in the grey, which i don't want to see. i just can't find the right settings, if they exist.i'm assuming the stage is akin to the page bounding box in illustrator, so test movie should behave like 'print preview'?

View 1 RepliesI've created three swf-files and added to a website.Two are created the same way (AS2), by adding a quicktime-movie and exporting as a swf.
On my computer (mac) and n a PC I can view both movies, but on two other computers (mac) only one of them show up. I've tried to download quicktime player but without results.
Fundamentally my code seems to work on preview but when I actually publish nothing appears.Here's the code in full:

I am using a FLVPlayback to play a video on my project. Path to the video file is taken from xml file and loaded to FLVPlayback by action script, everything work properly in swf file.But when i publish this file and play as html, the movie never start. What can be wrong?
View 2 RepliesMy project won't allow me to preview or publish it anymore. It's about 10 megs and the swf was around 2 the last time I could check. It goes to the export/publish panel and the bar fills but then nothing. The application does not crash either and I can continue to work in it.
Other smaller files preview fine.
I could debug this? It's driving me crazy and I really can't afford to lose this project.
I have a flash document with only 1 scene, but several frames. On the first frame i have several buttons, their behavior is "button". I wrote a simple onRollover command on each one. Like this
on(rollOver){
gotoAndStop(2)
}
It works fine when I test the movie, however, when I publish it, nothing happens when I rollover the button. I suppose there is a simple answer to this, but i just can't find it
I was wondering if it is possible to get my iphone app to preview in landscape mode without having to manually rotate it. I have it set to landscape mode with the landscape stage size, but it launches the preview in portrait mode.

View 5 RepliesI've been working on a AS3 script to control my FLVplayback component. I'm very close to making this work. Let me describe what I want to happen.On my homepage I have a DIV container where my video will be located. I want a still image of the video to load with a play button over it.Upon mouse over I want the button to change colors, upon mouse click I want the video to play.I have a .FLA project I'm working. I've got a FLVplayback component, sourced to my .flv. I've created a button and it works. When you click it the video plays.I have 3 layers.
actions (this is the top layer)
buttons (has a button and progress bar)
assets (only the FLVplayer)
The following AS3 is set to frame1 in the actions layer.
I'm using FlashCS4, AS3 and DreamweaverCS4
Here is the weird issue.
#1. While working in Flash.If I do a publish preview the play button with load for a split second and then disappear to be replaced by the still image.If you click on the center of the still image where the play button SHOULD be, the video will play.
#2.If I view this online.The play buttons NEVER disappear, however the still image NEVER loads.

I've had no such problem like this until today. Basically when i try and drag an object from photoshop to the stage in flash, everything looks great on the stage and usualy everything looks fine in the test / debug mode. But suddenly i've come up against a very anoying problem. Everything looks great on the stage, but as soon as I go to test the movie, the image quality of whatever it is I have imported goes terrible. Like its been compressed to less than 10kb!The image looks fine on the stage but the problem accurs when I try to test to movie.I have tried importing different size images, not transforming the images in flash, making sure all the settings (I know of) are on high.
View 2 RepliesHere is my code in its entirety. It won't trace when I Test Movie, but when I debug, it works fine.
import flash.events.*;
function scrollWheelHandler(e:MouseEvent){
trace(e.delta);
}
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL, scrollWheelHandler);
I hate flash. This is in a new project btw. wtf is going on?
I purchased an elastic menu flash component that uses AS3. Unfortunately, I've only just waded into AS2.I'm trying to replace the generic colored background with an image that is masked. Unfortunately, turning the layer into a mask breaks the functionality. The weird thing is that it works fine in Test Mode (Ctrl+Enter) and if published as an EXE. It just doesn't work as an swf.Has anyone run into this weird inconsistency before? Also, what is the best way to get into that component and possibly modify it?

View 2 RepliesI'm having some trouble with getURL (I think). It works fine when I preview with Flash's html preview but it's not working on my server. It's pretty simple. [URL].selected1 is a user-defined variable pointing to a page: ie, when the user selects variable page1 the page to be opened is [URL]. Like I said, it works with Flash's preview, but not on my server(no 404 or any response). Does there seem to be a problem with my code or might I be overlooking a server error? Here's my code:

Working in Flash CS4. When I publish my flash movie it opens fine on my computer but when I copy the folder with all the contents to another computer the skin show up fine but I get a white box where the movie should be. The same goes if we try to place it on a website.
When I'm in flash should I be going to
File Publish or
File Export SWF
