Is it necessary to unload Movies in Flash, or can I keep multiple movies loaded simultaneously? Are there memory requirements that make it necessary to limit the number of Flash movies loaded at one time?

View 1 RepliesI'm a graphic designer, so my skills on AS are not that great. However I've managed so far with quite a few websites, until now. What I'm trying to do is the following: I have a main movie (which i'll call for now movie1.swf). I load a movie on Scene2, on level1 (which I'll call movie2.swf). So what I want to do, is to be able to whenever i click on a specific button (which I can place either on movie1.swf or movie2.swf, depending on recomendation), and gotoandplay to a specific frame label on movie2.swf, and gotoandplay a specific frame label on movie1.swf. Is this possible?

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to load multiple .swf's into a horizontally expandable flash page (it's for a portfolio). The problem is, being a bit of novice when it comes to actionscript, I can't work out how to create the correct spacing for my images. I've got the code below but obviously the x position is simply a fixed amount (210px) which is no good as some images are much wider than others. I've tried to use _width to make the spacing dependent on the swf width but nothing seems to work.

I really hope someone can help me with this one! I've been trying to loop several embedded flv files in one flash document. I've found some really useful script that works when applied to one flv file in the document, however I don't really know how to adjust the actionscript so that it applies to the other three flv files on the page.[code]

View 13 RepliesI've created a movie, and have decided that I want to change the timing of one element in the middle of it. I have searched and searched but can't find any way to change not only the length of time this element stays on screen, but also all subsequent action, all of which is on different layers.
Surely I don't have to manually move each element on each layer individually? I've been trying to select multiple layers and move the frame I want, hoping that the frames on other layers would also move by the same amount - but no luck.
Is there a way to do something like this?
PHP Code:

I was making multiple remote calls and they are done sequentially and when I am getting a result event back it's triggering calls to all the methods with ResultEvent as an argument .

View 1 RepliesI have been working on a flex uploader, where the user can select multiple files.It works fine when the files are uploaded in a queue (one at a time), however as soon as I try to have it upload 2 files at once I run into issues.
It seems that files will often lock up, and either stay at 1% until every other file is uploaded, or just not complete at all. There is never more than one file uploading at a time.Is there some issue with calling .upload on multiple files at once in Flex?
I have created an AIR application that makes use of Flash' build in capability of taking multi touch gestures (TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_ZOOM & TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_ROTATE)
It works fine on my Mac using the computers trackpad. It also works fine on a Windows 7 machine with a touchscreen attached.
But I can only modify one object at a time. Is that a limitation in Flash or is it possible to modify more objects at the same time and that way possible to make a multi-user multi-touch application?
ShockwaveFlashObjects_TLB works fine, but I can't see any way in which I can play multiple .swf at the same time.
View 1 RepliesHere's the issue. I have a movie with 8 different movie clips on the stage. Each one is just a simple animation with a button. When the movie runs, all the movie clips run their respective animations until they hit a stop action in the middle. The stop basically seperates the intro from the outro of each clip. Once the user clicks a button, I want all of the other movie clips to start playing again and then load the next movie, depending on which button was clicked. So the button AS, in plain english speak, would be something like this:onRelease, make movie clips a, b and c play then load movieXYZ.swf to main stage.
View 1 RepliesI have five videos playing at the same time in a .swf. They are each .flv files of the exact same length, I'm keeping them external rather than embedding the files within the Flash, and it's imperative that they each play at the exact same time so I'm avoiding using streaming.They all need to be kept at the same time code as any other of the movies at any given time. Is it possible to make a scrubber or other controls that will allow the viewer to move positions within these videos simultaneously?

I saw a similar question posted on Aug 15, 2007 ([URL].. but the "Look Here" link that describes the solution is not available (removed by Adobe for security reasons).
I have 4 live f4vs that I'm using with interactive server 3.5. Thus they are running in dvr. I'm trying to find a way to control all 4 videos so that when you go back on one video all 4 videos go back to the same time. This is very important with camera 4 as it is the only one with sound.I have tried putting all 4 videos in one swf file and I have tried putting each video as its own swf.

View 6 RepliesI have obtained the Free Video to Flash Converter v 4.7.25 build 602 from www.dvdvideosoft.com, and find it creates flash movies from my .wmv files fine.
I selected the 'New Maxi' player and after converting a file, sample HTML script is provided to put onto a web page. Also, it directs copying the contents of the folder in which the movie is created into the folder that contains the web page.
I've done this OK, as can be seen on [URL] where there are four movies selectable amongst the 'still' pictures (e.g. 9th row, first column).
Each uses a hyperlink to a separate page for each movie containing the script provided above in its own folder with the copied contents mentioned above. This all works OK, and enables a full-screen view of the movies if required.
My query concerns the fact that I duplicate most of the files and folders for each movie page, when only the actual .flv and preview .jpg are different.
I've tried putting the 'common' files into a separate folder ( fl ) and only keeping the html page and settings.xml in each movie page folder. I put all four flv files in the fl.videos folder.
I amend the references to swfobject and videoPlayer in the individual four movie html pages by putting ../fl/ in front, and similarly with the videos location in settings.xml
When I do this, I get a black rectangle, but no controls, no start picture and no video.
I bought a template from flashmo which comes one main flash file and photoalbum fl. file. The main flash file plays swf. file from photoalbum.

I'm using the MovieClipLoader () class to load 1 swf and 1 jpg, what I want is that once BOTH are loaded a certain command get executed.
Right now the command get executed twice, since it does it once the swf is loaded, and once the jpg is loaded:
[AS]
var pagecontent = new MovieClipLoader();
pagecontent.loadClip(page + ".jpg", _root.mc_foto.mc_fposition);
pagecontent.loadClip(page + ".swf",_root.mc_cposition);

i save this code from some forum, but it has some problem I do understand,look and try it and see if it can solve this out.

function preloadClips(nr) {

In short I am trying to have a looping movie clip (already an flv) on the 1st frame with a button that goes to the next frame where the movie only plays once (transition) and goes to frame 3,loads up a menu with a movie clip thats looping and from then a menu that links to other looping movies on different frames with text etc.
