Flash :: Move The Flv Out Of That Folder For Later Playback?
Aug 9, 2010
I've been wondering something, websites like youtube (pandora does mp4s) play their music through a flash player. while each track is played, they're downloaded to the user's computer, e.g., /tmp/FlashXX*** This allows users to go and move the flv out of that folder for later playback.
However, when the user moves the flv out of the /tmp folder, the player continues to play the music/video quite happily. How does the flash player handle the removal of its file and why doesn't it throw errors from this?
More importantly, why are the flvs downloaded to the user in the first place if the player plays happily without them?

i am trying to create a flash movie for my browser page. i am able to import and export the movie just fine, the problem comes after i export the movie. As long as i leave the flash file in the folder it was created in things work great. If i try to move the folder or rename the folder it stops working. It acts like it cant find the flv file i created the flash with. if i rename or move the folder back where it was created things work fine.

My brother is currently living overseas with his girlfriend and is flying home for a visit in August/September this year so I have decided to mark the occasion by creating a 3-scene Flash movie. Just there now I had the plane on the stage, I had the names moving towards the plane but when I played the scene back the text and the plane weren't on-screen at the same time, as the text and graphic were in different layers. My question is how do I make it look like the text is moving to get on the plane and vice versa as in the next scene I obviously want to have the plane flying towards the airport, (more text) i.e how do I merge the layers or is merging the layers not what I need to do?

I don't really know how to describe this problem but I'm going to give it a try. I am working in Flash cs3 using as3. I have a project with 5 scenes and button nav to jump between them. When I test the project scene 1-4 play fine however when I get to scene 5 the playback head doesn't move, it just stays parked on frame 1 (button nav works, animation does not). When I re-arrange the stacking order of my scenes the same problem will occur in a different scene that had previously played fine. This issue only occurs when i test the whole movie - if I test any scene by itself it plays fine. I am not getting any AS errors which adds to the frustration

I'm using Flash CS3 Actionscript2 I'm using the FLVPlayback component and using SteelExternalAll as my skin.I noticed that the SeekBarHandle does not move while the video is playing. I can drag the handle to go to different parts of the video, but it does not move by itself as the video plays.I've already tried setting the total FLV video length in the parameters, but that didn't work.

Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.

I have a flash app (deployed as Air or regular app for iOS) which displays pictures.
It has to work offline, so I need to bundle my pictures with the flash app. I wrote a script to download all pics from my server to a specific folder before deploying the flash app. Currently, I remove all existing pictures from the FLA and add the new ones, but I was wondering whether there is a way to define a system folder for flash and it will take whatever exists there during the deployment process?
So basically all I'll have to do will be to run my script (to update the folder with the new pics) and recompile the FLA.

I'm not sure what's going on...basically, I have a flash file that loads images from a xml file and this works fine without any problems. But when I try to load the swf file into html, the images only load if the html file is in the same folder as the swf.I'm not sure if this is related to a problem with the xml link in the swf file or something else... this is how the xml is being called from the swf:
Code:
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;

I dont know if its the right forum for my post or not. But I need to ask if there is anyway to show the folder structure of a clients PC in flash when the user clicks on a browse button in a web site just like the one below? I googled for a "Multiple File Uploader using flash" but what I found there is that an open file window opens and we are able to select multiple files from it. I could not found anything like below. So my question is that whether we will be able toshow all the folder structure or not?

I want to embed all xml files of a given folder. For now I'm doing something like this:
[Embed(source="../somefolder/file1.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var MyClass1:Class;
[Embed(source="../somefolder/file2.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var MyClass2:Class;
[Code]....
The list of XML files will grow to 10+ files, so I'm looking for a more elegant and dynamic way to embed those files.
The files should be embedded on compilation, to load them via URLLoader is not an option.

I usually work with many AS files in the same folder and it is easy to address those files to each other. But I now have a sub folder inside the name folder which stores most of my files; and there is another as file inside that sub folder. How can I change variables of the AS file(inside the sub folder) from the AS files from the main folder and vice verses.
