I am having trouble getting a function to work within flash. I basically am creating a video where the intro video plays through then the user is prompted with 3 choices to select which video will play next. I am using keyboard input to make the selection. I have the keyboard input capturing working, pretty basic, but I am having trouble getting it to switch to say scene 2 (where I have another video).
Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
function reportKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
[Code] .....
And I get a compiler error stating "Scene 1, Layer 'content', Frame 1, Line 11 1120: Access of undefined property event.
I've created a new layer in the scene 1 and put that code in and everything compiles fine. I created scene 2 and imported a video into it from the library but the video plays and does not respond to any key input and the output is not showing the trace any longer. Enter does work to pause and play the video though.
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
function reportKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, reportKeyDown);
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER){
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2");
}}
No matter whether you embed a flash video using Flash Satay, swfobject, or some other method, there are a number of parameters that can be passed to the embedded video. I'd like this to be a community wiki for the following questions: What parameters can be used to embed a flash video? How can the parameters be accessed via ActionScript?

View 4 RepliesI've been struggling with this for a few weeks, but I still can't get it right, and all the info I found is too ambiguous or uses AS2. What I want to do is to retrieve info from a MySQL database, using PHP, and send it to Flash; and in the other way, input info into the database from a Flash form. I want this to make a series of Flash tests for my website. show me a simple example code (on both PHP and Flash) of how to exchange data? PD: I know how to work with databases on PHP, so the only PHP code i need to see is the php-flash communication part.

I'm completely new to Flash and this forum, so please take 'er easy! I have spent the last several days on lynda.com and searching the internet for various tutorials and trying to get a crash course in AS3. Here's my question:
I am working on a project with multiple FLV's where the character is traveling along a path, and gets to a certain point where the movie pauses and the viewer selects from several options where the character goes next. It's actually a kayaking going down a river and at each rapid the viewer selects which line he's going to run, but that's irrelevent.
At first, I thought I would do this in one long FLV using cuepoints, where I'd use an event handler to pause the video at a certain cuepoint and display button's presenting the options. The button's would skip the video to the appropriate cuepoint down the line in the video and it would continue. It would be one ridiculously large FLV file though, so I don't think this is the route to go.
Then I realized, I could just chop each "option" or "route" up into smaller FLV's. Then, the character is going and the FLV ends when the viewer is presented with their "choices." At the end of the video, I'd like to have the last frame of the video remain on the screen (simulating a pause) and the options buttons pop up so the viewer can select where the character goes. The button's then link to the appropriate FLV correlating with the viewers selection. [code]...
i'm remodeling a website i've done ([URL]). i want to exchange information between XML and Flash files. i almost did it, but where shoul display information about one item, the whole content of this 'field' is shown. i'll explain better. this swf displays works of an artist. but the field 'date' (or any other text field) display the content of all works (separated by commas). i'll post the xml code and the actionscript code.
View 2 RepliesI am developing a non-real time browser RPG game (think Kingdom of Loathing) which would be played from within a Flash app. At first I just wanted to make the communication with server using simply URLLoader to tell PHP what I am doing, and using $_SESSION to store data needed in-between request. I wonder if it wouldn't be better to base it on a socket connection, an app residing on a server written in Java or Python.
The problem is I have never ever written such an app so I have no idea how much I'd have to "shift" my thoughts from simple responding do request (like PHP) to continuously working application. I won't hide I am also concerned about the memory and CPU usage of such Server app, when for example there would be hundreds of users connected. I've done some research. So, considering the fact I don't need real time data exchange, will it be wise to develop the server side part as socket server, not in plain ol' PHP?
Let's say i have a class that simulates a 'button section'.The button bears a title. Like news. I click on it, i transfer the title in the button and the respective news to the body.The body exists outside the class. It's a textField variable. let's assume.
ActionScript Code:
public function xmlLoad()[code].....
keeps giving me an error.1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.but i've seen this done before, except it was on a loader variable...but i don't see how that would be any different.
I'd like to gain read only access to the following parameters of embedded Flash videos located on sites that I do not own through my own custom browser extension/add-on:
Time location of playback head (so I can display the current time in the browser extension via HTML5/JavaScript) Frames (so I can make capture them to an image file, save it and display image in browser extension) Original Dimensions in pixels (so I can display the original video dimensions via JS/HTML5 in browser extension)
Is this possible by using Javascript and HTML5 from a browser extension?
Would I have to use something like the SWFObject Javascript API [URL]

You know how when you load xml you use this code.
Code: Select allxml.load("data.xml");
which is the file path to the xml. I would like to know how I could exchange different xml files from the same component. Their must be a way to do this. Like say-
Code: Select allbutton1.onPress = function(){
xml.load("data.xml");
}
button2.onPress = function(){
xml.load("data2.xml");
}
[URL]. You can use it to download and parse into an object the ASE files from sites like Kuler or ColourLovers, for those who want more control than their RSS feeds provide. You get all the group and color info for RGB, CMYK, and Gray color modes (Sorry, didn't do LAB). The object just needs the ByteArray representation of the ASE, so it can be used on embedded or dynamically loaded files.
