Professional :: Choppy Performance After Returning From Fullscreen?
Jul 30, 2010
I'm creating a flash website in AS3 where the user can click a fullscreenbutton which works fine. Im not using the hardware mode because of the black borders it creates and I dont want that. The site is liquid in a sense it conforms to the browsers' size using Event.RESIZE.
The code is for fullscreen simple:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
I'm using TweenLite to make transitions between pages and it works fine
UNTIL
I release fullscreen mode (escape) and go back to the browser. From then on all my transitions are extremely choppy (like 1 - 2 fps) and I can't figure out why. I had video on the pages but even when I completely removed the video from the pages the transitions are still choppy. When I go back to fullscreen the transitions are smooth again.

A lot of users on one of our online apps complain about the app freezing in the fullscreen mode. I googled and came across many others complaining about this problem for other flash apps. Is it such a common problem, or are there known causes for it?

I just got a new laptop that is running Windows 7 (64 bit) and has Intel HD Graphics (driver version 8.15.10.2182) built in to the CPU (Intel p6000). The laptop came with Flash version 10.0.45.2. When I play HD video with this version of Flash on Youtube and on HULU, everything is fine, I can play 480p and 1080p videos at 30fps with no noticible problems (although there are occasional frame drops according to the right click menu option "Show Video Info" on Youtube, but nothing major.) Then the other day, flash told me there was a new version available, so I upgraded to 10.1.82.76.
Running this version, all HD videos on Youtube and HULU are choppy and unwatchable, according to "Show Video Info" on Youtube, I am getting only 8 fps, and the frame drops increment constantly. I unchecked "Enable hardware acceleration" in the Flash settings, but it has no effect. The only other people I can find who are having a similar problem are Mac users who are also using CPUs with Intel HD Graphics and Flash 10.1, I couldn't find anyone else complaining about this issue on Windows 7. Is anyone aware of any issues with Flash 10.1 and Intel HD Graphics on Windows 7? Will there be a future release of 10.1 that fixes this issue? Is there any workaround for this problem other then downgrading to 10.0 (which is what I am running now)?

The longer mouse is down, the speed of wich the ball is fired with should increase.My question to you is;
What is the most efficient way to accomplish this? With a timer or something like this;

I have a color picker which I set usingMenu.ColorPicker.selectedColor = 0x339900;It displays the correct color when ran. If trytrace(Menu.ColorPicker.selectedColor);it traces 0. Why is this? Even stranger is later I set some xml parameters using
xml.parameter[0] = Menu.ColorPicker.selectedColor; xml.parameter[0].@name = "color1"; xml.parameter[1] = Menu.ColorPicker2.selectedColor;
xml.parameter[1].@name = "color2";

I'm devloping some library classes for flocking/steering behaviours on large numbers of objects (2000+). I'm finding that at < 500 instances, performance is reasonable. As the numbers increase, framerate bogs down.
I've seen remarkable performance with libraries such as Flint or Box2D with ridiculous #'s of particles / objects, so it should be possible to optimize / refactor my code to be a bit better.
I'm aware of the basic optimizations, such as bitwise operations and optimized for loops. Are there any more fundamental approaches I should be considering? For example, currently each instance is a vector-based MovieClip. Would working with BitmapData be more efficient?

Will I take a big hit in performance using nested ViewStacks? Should I strive to handle all navigation in one ViewStack and push children manually or will the affected performance be negligible?
eg.
<viewstack>
<tabnavigator />
<tabnavigator />
<tabnavigator />
</viewstack>

We have a medium size Flex 3.6 application that contains around 20 different page views (managed via a single lazy ViewStack) each having multiple components. Most use custom renderers.All model data is loaded at startup and changes to model instances are communicated via binding and/or collection change events.Once the user has viewed each page at least once, all page views are instantiated and happily listen to update events.Which in effect means that each time a model instance changes, all interested views receive that event and compute derived data or trigger item-renderers.I have tested and confirmed this behaviour in a proof-of-concept application. Even when setting a list to being invisible, it still listens to collection change events and invalidates any renderer affected.What would you do?

I have created an app in CS5.5 for Android and iOS. I have tested on two Android devices and everyingthing works fine. However, on an iPad and iPhone the animations are really slow. Here are some more facts:
1) My project has many scenes and in the problems scene there are upwards of 1,200 frames. But even simple animations run slowly.
2) The frame rate is set for 24 fps.
3) I have created a universal app (iphone and ipad), publish resolution is standard at full screen.
4) Ironically, I have already tried caching as bitmap. That actually slowed my animations even more. I am truely at the end of the line here and don't have any possible solutions.

i have a question about loading an mp3 in flash. the mp3 is loading & playing fine, but if i click a button to go to a new frame, and then click another button to return to the home page, a new copy of the same audio clip is loaded over the one that is already playing, thus causing two audio files to play at the same time. it will keep loading a new copy of the audio clip every single time i return to the home page. how do i go about correcting this? the following is the code i am using:

Looking for some recommendations on tools that can be used independent of the source (that is just on the swf) to check for Frames Per Second, total size and how often the movie loops.

I am trying to improve the frame rate of a game that draws many floor tiles. Currently, the floor tiles are vector graphics and stored as different frames in a movie clip. I wanted to experiment with rasterizing a floor tile and seeing if that would provide any frame rate boosts. I did this by converting one of my tiles (one of the frames in my movie clip) to a png and replacing the vector version of this tile with this raster version. I then tested two worlds--one filled with tile A (vector) and another filled with tile B (png).
In all my tests, world with tile A (the original vector version) outperformed the world with tile B. I am guessing that the reason I am not getting the expected performance gains is because I am still rendering the tiles in the old style and not using any strict bitmap drawing calls?why it is that this method fails to boost rendering speed? Would I have to switch my rendering code to strict bitmap draw calls?

when I create a medium or large text block, Flash (cs4) starts to work very slow, only a objet move or a click on stage takes a lot of time to process. My computer features should be ok... 4gb ram, intel 2 core duo 2.4 hz... The only thing that I think can be a problem is that I'm using Windows Vista 64 bit.

I have an image converted into MovieClip (background) and I have a mask MovieClip (bgMask) set to mask the image MovieClip like this:
[Code]....
In bgMask I have a few linear gradient shapes which I animate with shape tweens using keyframes. If I don't set cacheAsBitmap for both, nothing will happen since what I need is alpha masking and it will work only then. In this scenario is cacheAsBitmap working for me or agains me? (not that I have any choice). Still I could try to replace some of the shape tweens with MovieClips with solid shape in them and just move them around to uncover some part of the background, and where I want a smoother transition I would stick to the shape tweens. If the object that I've set cacheAsBitmap true to is no longer being animated moved sized and so on, would it be better to set cacheAsBitmap to it to false?

I am working on this cd-rom and have just reached testing stage for part 1 (of 5). There are lots of interactive activities, video and animations. For the activities, I dont know if I am just too tired but there seems to be items which are visible on my .swf on my computer that sometimes are visible and sometimes are not visible on the cd-rom, also in testing yesterday there sere some activities that seemed to not be working correctly (Althought they perform fine on the desktop version, on a reset of the cd-rom they then seemed to work. Is there anything that I need to take into account for the code being read off a CD to make it more bullet proof? I am stressing out a bit at the Unknown factor- I cannot continue to produce this resource if I cannot guarantee how it will perform in real life?

Flash freezes when in fullscreen, youtube or any other site. Disabling hardware acceleration works but significantly lowers the playback quality. I'm running XP SP3 and WIndows 7, same problem with both OSs, in IE, Firefox, Opera, and Google chrome, so it's definitly the adobe flash player that's causing the problem. Tried unninstaling adobe flash player and adobe activeX completely, than downloaded latest versions and installed them. Then I tried unninstaling them, unninstalling all the browsers, restarting, then installing the browsers and then the latest flash player.

I had an old version of air which loaded an swf that runs an as2 swf using as3 The as2 swf included keypressing and regular as2 stuff. I just installed the new version of air and exported the AIR file again Keypresses don't seem to workhow to fix this?I thought about exporting to an older version of air but I have no idea how since the only option I have in CS5 is 2.0

10.1 Does not work with SisM760gx chipset. I know its an old chipset for this notebook. I cant get fullscreen when watching youtube movies or something else.. The pixels stays dead and with strange colours. I know I can uncheck the use hardware acceleration , but the quality of the video get a lot worser, so i dont think this is a solution. I reinstalled the flash 9 and i got the problem "solved".. Is there plans from adobe to work on this issue for older platforms?

Is there anyway to have a projector ALWAYS fullscreen, and use an flvplayback component with fullscreen button at the same time? It seems that they're somehow incompatible. If I have multiple instances of an flvplayback component on different scenes, when the projector is fullscreen, jumping to a scene with an flvplayback on it, leads to having a black screen only!

I've to develop an interactive presentation for a customer and was thinking of flash.But I would like to have anyone opinion.Before this project, a dvd player was playing in loop a simple dvd video.Now, we would like to play an interactive video on a touchable device (http:url]....).The main menu will only present 4 button to play each video, any click on a playing video will return to the main menu.
First of all, will I be able to play a fullscreen video in high quality ? 1366 x 768 ? Which video format do I need ? FLV seem to be pretty poor quality ?

I'm in the midst of creating an extremely rudimentary game show display. It will essentially function like the big screen in Jeopardy.
I want to be able to have this operate in four stages. First stage: One frame will have all the question categories and values laid out in a grid. Second stage: I will click on a category and have it link to a frame that displays a question. Third stage: Once my participant answers the question, I will click once more and be linked to a frame that has the answer. Fourth stage: I click a link back to my initial grid of questions, but the category I just went through is now a different colour/blacked out/faded
I can do steps 1-3 quite easily, I just don't know how to make step four work. Just to clarify, say all the questions are in blue and I click "History for 200". I want to be able to go through, answer that question, come back to the grid, and have "History for 200" now be in red (or something). This would have to work for multiple questions, as it should show the participants which questions have already been asked.
I'm a quick learner and am just looking for the actionscript or whatever that requires this. My question wasn't really short enough for searches of Google and this forum to yield anything.
