I am looking for a video player that can be embedded in a webpage and can play .swf files. I have tried Strobe Media Playback but it has a lot of bugs to it for .swf.
View 3 Replieswant to preload the embedded swf's as you would images using javascript or css. I have so far been unsuccessful. I am trying to avoid having the great big white patches in the site while the menu or stocklist(on the stocklist page) load, and id prefer not to have a loading bar while it does. If possible id like to have all images and swf's loaded and cached before the page is displayed so it appears seemingly instantly. Is this possible?I first attempted to do this with a standard image preloading javascript and failed. Is it at all possible to preload swf's with javascript, if not what are my options?
View 6 RepliesI am trying to get a Flash movie I created to stop looping in my browser AFTER loading it into Dreamweaver. Here's what I've tried:
a) Place an AS3 "Stop();" at the end of the action script for the file (in Flash CS4).
b) Publish with "Loop" in HTML tab unchecked.
c) Open the tandem created .html file in my browser (Firefox)......and the movie plays then stops as hoped
d) Open Dreamweaver CS4
e) Import the swf file into a blank HTML page and Save the file.
f) Test the document in my browser. Movie plays, but the movie continues to loop.
as mentioned above, how can I stop the movie from looping after it's embedded in my web page in Dreamweaver? Is this a Dreamweaver 'problem' rather than a Flash one? The DW help file says to use Flash to control the loop....
I'm a virgin to CS4, and a historian wanting to copy some documents that are in SWF files into JPG format.Is there a simple, "dummies method" for me to copy the SWF file, and then what are the basic steps for conversion.The website of interest is the Mexican national archives:[url].....When moving through the site it is possible to select images (Ver imagen/s).This is where I'd really like to be able to copy the image to JPG.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash movie embedded on a webpage, it's an intro of sorts, when the movie has finished it removes itself from the DOM but I also want this functionality on flash movie click.so far to remove it after it's finished playing I'm using[code]but it never gets called. I also tried adding the click event to the body and it worked everywhere but not over the top of the flash movie.
View 2 RepliesI am entirely new into flash. Never ever written even a line of action script.I am triying to develop an image editing tool to be embedded in my webpage.The key features I want in the tool are: I have a fixed background image. The user may chose to over lay text or images over the image, with resizability, etc.My questions are:
1) can I consider Flash with action script and javascript a platform for this?
2) Where do I start.
3) what all do I need to start with.
I have a flash file and I want to be able to hover over it and see the cursor change and when I click I want to be sent to a page I specify on a website.
I've tried "on(release) etc" in ActionScript (although I know nothing!) and it says I need to use NavigateToURL so I tried searching on the Internet and couldn't find anything?
I want to have a movieclip "button" that when clicked will go to another page on a website, a different URL, not another frame in the flash application. I am trying to use this actionscript
var targetPage:URLRequest = new URLRequest("update0709-2.html");
procedures_mc.p_dropdown_mc.p_body_mc.newPage = "update0709.html";
procedures_mc.p_dropdown_mc.p_body_mc.buttonMode = true;
procedures_mc.p_dropdown_mc.p_body_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLIC K, goToPage);

I'm new on FMS, but I've managed to create a web page with an embedded player that shows a live stream that I capture with a webcam and FMS. What I need is to be able to pause the live stream from the web page player and to play it again from the point I've paused it. I thought to stream a live video and save it to a file on the server as well, but I don't know how to tell the player to start from the end of the file rather than the begining of it. The client should connect to the page and see the live stream, but he can pause it and continue watching it later from that point, but if a different client connects, he should see the live stream.
View 1 RepliesMy flash media player is not playing automatically when my webpage loads. I have changed the settings from 0 to 1 (which should auto start the file), but still does not start the song automatically. This occurs in IE, FF, and Chrome.

Im trying to create an implied webpage link to twitter, facebook, you tube ect. I have buttons with the logo on it! However for my work i can not just link to a webpage as it all needs to be contained in the files i.e. on a computer that doesnt have an internet link! I was thinking of having the page as a swf that loads in on a seperate layer on top of the main site, which can then be closed via a exit link on the page!
However im not sure what script i would need to put on the Facebook button to crate it to load, and what script to put on the x to make the link close! Or am i even doing it the right way! Should i be some how enbeding the webpages in the the flash file?
Right now I have everything set up and linked correctly except when you click the button it opens up a new tab rather than just going straight to the suggested URLHere is the code I have now...
button_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void

I've built a SWF with the top layer being an invisible button. As a test, I simply uploaded the file to the server and clicked it. Here is the URL where the file is located: [URL] When clicked anywhere, it should take you here: [URL] and it does. I sent the SWF to a third party vendor who have placed the masthead at the top of a page: [URL] which its on their server. When you mouse over the image, it appears clickable, but if you click it, no action takes place. It's the exact same file. Why is it working from one place, but not the other?
View 4 RepliesI want to make it so that when I click anywhere on the embedded Flash element, it takes me to a destination URL.
Here is my current code, which does not produce the desired effect:
<div class="contentdiv" style="margin:-72px 0 10px 0px; cursor:pointer;" onclick="location.href='http://example.com/';">
<object height="410" width="720">

Right now it is making the space behind the .swf file clickable for the link, but the Flash element is not clickable.
If the right thing to do is to edit the .swf file somehow, I don't consider myself a Flash developer, but are there any resources on where to get started or how to do something this basic with an existing .swf file?
I have a problem that my slideshow works great when not embedded, I can click the pictures and the link opens in the same window just like I want. However, when I embed the slideshow the links do not work. I attach my embed code.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to make a movie swf to load different .swf files but pressing html links in the same page it's embeded. What I got is that links are passing good a variable called 'video' to swf... Using a jscript in html page, and html links as follows:
<script language = "JavaScript">
<!--
function PassFlash(){
window.document.movie.SetVariable("video", "video.swf");
} //-->
</script>
<a href="#" onClick="PassFlash()">Load this video into flash please!</a>
But I think I didn't build the actionscript correctly.. I can't find the way to make the movie to load a determinated .swf using that variable...If I put a loadMovie (video, "mclipholder") and a stop (); in a frame the variable is not useful because the movie doesn't load. If I add a gotoAndPlay (1) for making the movie loop, the swf loads again and again...I want the main movie to be able to recognize when an html link is pressed (and passes the variable called 'video') and then to load the correct movie....
I have a flash website www.sitzmarkgolf.com. I have a couple of embedded swf's in my main flash page.

View 4 RepliesI wrote a flash (ActionScript3) based radio streaming player, there is a link in the player for users to click. It's is a "a" tag in TextField. The code looks like this
textField.htmlText = '<u><a href="' + url +'">' + htmlEscape(text) + '</a></u>';
It works fine if I put my flash player in same domain of web-page, however, if the domain of web-page is different from the location of flash player, then the link is not clickable.
For example:
A radio example page
You can see there is a link in the title bar of radio player, I hosted the flash player on CDN, its domain is different from the web-page, therefore, the link is not clickable.
Why the link cannot be clicked if it is embedded in a cross-domain page? It doesn't make any sense. I did set the crossdomain.xml file properly, but it appears that it doesn't work. I want to make the link clickable everywhere, no matter what domain the web-page is located.
I got my HTML embedded in my flash file, finally!But now I want some parts of the text that is in the HTML file to link to a specific label in flash itself.What variable can I use for this? or even a Href link?
