Professional :: Bevel Filter Not Showing In Playback?
Feb 14, 2012I'm using Flash CS5.
I applied a bevel filter to a movie clip. Looks fine in authoring mode but the filter effect doesn't show up when playing back in Flash or in a browser.

Actionscript 3 :: Add Bevel Filter On MovieClip After Changed Its Color?
Dec 13, 2011When I change color with

MovieClip.transform.colorTransform = blue;
[Code]....
How can I add this bevel over or on the new color that I changed?
It seems like that the bevel takes all colors as the new color that I changed, not taking the one I specified

Dec 13, 2011When I change color with
var blue:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();

View 2 RepliesJoin Style Options For 2 Lines (miter - Bevel - Round) Won't Work
Jul 3, 2009Ok, I am new to Flash and I am using CS3. I just learned about creating lines and choosing their end cap styles and joint style. I created 2 lines that were connected, highlighted both with the selection tool and tried to change the join style to miter. It would not work. I also tried round and bevel but they would not work either. I did this over and over with many different sets of lines, and I could not change the join style. What am I doing wrong?

Jul 15, 2009To achieve a zoom effect in our 2D flash game, we make the background of the game much bigger than the visible stage. This becomes a problem when the background is complex or when we apply a grayscale filter to the background. Is there a better way to do zoom? Or, is there a way to apply the filter to only a specific area of a movieclip?
View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Apply An Existing Filter To A MovieClip?
Jul 5, 2011Flash Pro CS5 I have a plan view png made into a movieclip of a car which follows a motion guide changing direction as it travels. I select the MC in frame 1 and go to properties, filter section is currently empty and I select dropshadow from the filter choices, adjusting the angle and opacity. Looks good test movie and car runs without shadow after fr1. Methinks I need to apply it to the car in the last frame (no other keyframes between by the way), I select the car and then cannot see how to apply the filter that is now showing in the properties window. How does one apply an existing filter to a movieclip ?
Is this then what is needed to get the car to have the shadow cast north west throughout its journey ? Applying the filter to the MC at start and end of the tween ?
Professional :: Blur Filter On Graphic Symbols?
Jul 8, 2011I'm trying to export my flash animation to quicktime, but because for some odd reason the normal .mov exporter on flash corrupts the images, I'm exporting to .swf, importing to premiere pro, then exporting again to .mov. The problem is that .swf import on premiere pro only captures the first layer of the timeline, so I have to use graphic symbols in order to get all the animations out on the first layer. Now I'm trying to do blur on some of the symbols, but graphic symbols can't have filters, and movie clips won't show up on premiere pro.

Mar 13, 2012I'm currently working on combining a bunch of movieclips with variating color schemes that I'd like to condense into a unified pallete. Breaking apart a movieclip reverts the graphics to the original colors but it would be super-helpful if flash repasted the current color settings onto the graphics once its broken apart. Maybe implementing a few of illustrators color palette tools would be great too. If this isn't the proper place, then I apologize but I wanted to pass the info along as an artist who is currently using flash as his primary art development tool right now.

Mar 16, 2010I am playing an swf on a VB.net form which works fine but I've added an FLV to another layer in the same swf and when I run it, the FLV doesn't appear. If I run the swf by itself the FLV appears. I've tried using the FLVPlayback component and tried coding the FLV with AS3, both work when I run the SWF by itself but the FLV still doesn't appear when run in VB.

Professional :: Forward And Backward Playback?
Apr 26, 2010I am trying to create a small movie. Now I want to create an effect that once the mouse is in the right half of the movie - then movie should play forward. When the cursor moves to the left half of the movie then movie should play backwards. I have tried following some examples from online but I am kinda lost
This is what I have done so far:
- Create the animation named it "mc" of type Movie Clip
- Put it in the "main scene"
- The (first) keyframe at "main scene" has action "stop();"
- <<now i am lost >>
Note: Eventually the right and left part of the movie will link to different webpage.
Professional :: FLV Playback Not Smooth With Alpha On Swf
Mar 3, 2011As I have a gradient background on my website where the swf is embedded, in order to avoid the white screen that appears initially while the swf is loading, I turned transparency on for the swf. In order to really get it transparent I found out that you not only have to enable it in on the html site, but also tick "Detect flash version"and chose "Transparent windowless" in the publish settings. I used the html document created when I published the swf and the transparency now works fine.
However, the films I have on my site are now playing back with a very "jerky" behaviour and not smooth at all. I tried compressing the film as much as possible, but it's still not working as before. The site in question is [URL] if you would like to see for yourself. I've tried it on both my laptop, which is even worse, and my fairly powerful dual core 64 bit stationary PC.
Professional :: Best Method To Playback Video?
Mar 29, 2011I import the video manually from the File Tab. I change the stage size to match video (I want it full screen because I have "liquid layout" AS3 code in order to match browser window) I center the video on the stage.I make the video an Object (MovieClip)
And that's it.
The video play well, matching the full brower window and resizing accordingly.
My questions are :
1 - I am making the video a movie clip but is it necessary. I have tried without and it still works!! The only thing I find weird is that the "publishing" doesnt work when the video is not made a MovieClip. (I struggle to center the SWF in the HTML page)
2 - I don't know about the Netstream class. My server is a normal FTP (with PHP MYSQL) but not a streaming server. Would it be appropriate (better) to call the video through AS3 using the Netstream class ? (actually I am not sure of what the Netstream class is for)
3 - I have tried to loop the video using the classic AS3 code (that can be found anywhere). What is funny is that the code works when the movie is not converted to an object. But when it is, the looping doesnt work at all. Do you see a reason why ? (Maybe because the video is imported manually and not an instance created from the Video MovieClip Object ??)
Professional :: Playback Very Jerky At 720p?
May 18, 2011I've got a short animation at 720p - not much going on, just some symbols moving around the screen - but playback in flash player is jerky (more flashy, actually) - not smooth at all.
I've got the latest video drivers for my card, running a dual-core 2.4GHz with 6GB of RAM - my CPU meter says it's having no trouble playing the flash. The video card is an Nvidia quadro NVS 285 (pretty old & crap, but should have no problems).
I don't suppose anyone has got any ideas. I am using FlashEff2 for an effect but the entire animation is jerky, not just the bit with the FlashEff. I would post the fla but I can't see any way to do that on this forum - if anyone would like to see the source, please email me at elliot dot sumner at gmail dot com.

Professional :: Adding An Flv With A Playback Component To An Swf
Jul 1, 2011I created a video in After Effects and rendered the output to an .flv, works fine when I embed in html and upload to my server. But now I'm having a problem with the next phase and that's adding a link to the flv using Cue points. I read the tutes on this but cannot get past the following. First I tested this by importing the flv picking the skin for the player and importing straight to an html page in Dreamweaver. I uploaded the html, flv and player to the server and it works great.
Now I need to add a url link to a certain frame of the flv and read the tute on how to import the flv into a new fla file, I see where I can scrub the timeline inside the flv and thought I was home free as all I had to do was upload and add the cue points. But now I see where I had to take the .flv and import as video to a new fla and after importing the flv it clearly states that the component will only play locally. After making sure the flv was on the server I uploaded the html and swf. When I try to playback from the server I get a browser Which is named "Flash Player Installation" with a blank screen.
Professional :: Input Video For FLV Playback?
Sep 27, 2011I am using the FLVPlayback component to play a flash video. Currently, the input video I am using is a H.264 encoded .mp4 file. My question is regarding the type of video input which the component supports. In the sense, I understand the kind of videos which the playback component supports(h.264, sorenson spark encoded videos and the like). I specifically wanted to know whether there is a provision to play a video which has chapters and is there any skin to support such a feature?
Background Info: I am using Flash Professional CS 5 and the language is AS3. I am using flash on an embedded platform.

TIMELINE: 3 layers, -- Layer 1, flv video - converted to a Movie Clip. Layer 2, is my button. Layer 3, is my action script. My flv video file was imported and converted to a Movie Clip. My button was created using polygon tool and was converted to a button - and both have instance names.

Professional :: Inconsistent Playback On Various Computers?
Apr 6, 2012I created a Flash .exe that plays a couple FLV files, but in testing the files we've noticed some inconsistent playback on various computers and here's what we've found: On an Intel Zeon 3ghz quadcore 32bit Windows 7 machine, the playback is smooth and acceptable, using an average of 50% of all four cores during playback.
On a single core Windows XP PC, there is some playback hesitation using 100% of the single core during playback. On an Intel P4 3ghz with HT (dual core) 32bit Windows 7 machine, the playback is initially very choppy with continueing choppiness throughout to a somewhat lesser degree, using almost 100% of both cores continuously during playback.
We want to point this out because on PCs that are less than multi-core Intel Zeons, we would reasonably expect that the playback experience for the end user will be unsatisfactory. Is there anything that can be done about this to avoid this being a problem after the fact, as this client will be having many of these USBs manufactured.
