Professional :: Forward And Backward Playback?
Apr 26, 2010
I 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.

I beleive there's an Action Script or possibly an attached Javascript (maybe) that would allow an FLV video to 1st stream forward and then play backwards and repeat this proccess over and over to simulate an endless trend. The perfect example can be simply viewed here url...Their video is a short 13 sec clip of the pup licking the screen, but they managed to reverse it when it reaches the end.

I have an animation of a rotating 3d object, and I'm playing it backward and forward through simple nextFrame() and prevFrame() actions inside an onEnterFrame event.Everything seems to work, the only technical problem is that if I go backward, the animation is not as smooth as if I went forward. I understand that a prevFrame action is 'less natural' than a nextFrame.. but does anyone know how I could fix it?

how to make my "animation" (more of an interactive slideshow) skip forwards and backwards by two frames rather than one.
Each frame's action starts with stop(); and I know how you can implement the Action script to register keystrokes, the problem is I can't get how to jump by 2 rather than 1 frame at a time.
It would be preferable not to have to use gotoAndStop(#); on every 2nd frame as I have over 350+ frames.

well what i am trying to do is move between 2 text boxes through a motion tween. but thats not going to work because you can't tween backwards. so what would be the best thing to do?
this has probably been posted before but i have no idea where it is. i tried the sliding menu tute but that didn't work.

Im trying to produce my online portfolio but for that i need to play movieclips backward and forward to various frame numbers.I found a very good script (as2) and it works great in the main timeline but inside a mc it doesnt work at all. this is the script
1. Call to Action Create an actionscript layer that extends the full length of your movie. In that layer, include the following actionscript:
function Movement() {
if (_root._currentframe > _root.mytarget){
prevFrame();
[code]....
Using the code above, the movie will play either backwards or forwards to the desired destination.As i said before this script is great but it doesnt work inside an mc.

I simply want to move a video forward and backword when it is already playing, but the seek method is not working properly. I can't figure out, where the problem is.I have two buttons (pluz_btn and minus_btn). Plus button is used to move half second forward and Minus button is used to go back half seconds.The plus button is working but it is showing about is moving the video to about 3 seconds.The minus button should move video backword. But it is also moving it forward.[code]......

Background: I have a slider / scrubber that works well and controls the timeline of a movieclip both forward and backward.Lets say I have a movieclip of a lightbulb onstage that starts in a turned off state. When the movieclip plays through normally I have frame based actionscript to toggle a lightbulb movieclip to _on.

minus_btn.onRelease = function() {
first_ns.seek(first_ns.time-.5);
streamCount -= 1;
streamTime_txt.text = streamCount; };

I would like to control the embedded video by advancing the playhead forward and /or backward by increments > 1 frame. I have tried:
on (press) {
stop();
for(var j = 0; j < 4; j++)
nextFrame();
}
- and -
on (press) {
stop();
mc.gotoAndStop(mc._currentframe + 4);
} (mc = movie clip)
I enabled Simple Buttons and clicked on the buttons containing the AS; they are not functioning. Although, the play, stop, goto first and last frame buttons work. I am perplexed. I have tried creating a new .fla file with a different .wmv, and the failure to function persists.

I have created a slider with the following code:
stop();
//DRAGGER1 CODE
dragger1_mc.onPress = function() {
//constrain dragger to line width
[Code]....
What code would I add to have a seperate movieclip play frame by frame based on where my slider is. Ex: My slider is on the far left, seperate movieclip is at end of its timeline. If I move the slider quickly back to the beginning the movieclip plays backwards quickly to its beginning and stops.

I've got these 3 separate animations moving forward and backward based on simple rollover interaction. It all works and all is well with the world, but I know this can be done in a more efficient manner. Instead of duplicating all the functions with different numbered versions of their name, how can I group this stuff together and call it once? Just curious as I'd like to be more efficient with things like this moving forward.
ActionScript Code:
//CLIP ONE CONTROL
function loopback(event:Event):void {
this.celebration_mc.prevFrame();
this.light_mc.prevFrame();
} function backwards() {

I am trying to work with this flash tutorial -[URL] So far it draws with a simple rounded line. I have been extending this application by making the drawing board bigger and other small things. I now want to be able to choose the line style. Currently it is rounded and I want to choose and draw with other shapes - square, forward slash (/), backward slash (). Is this possible? If so, could you explain how I could go about it?

simple one this, or so i thought! basically, i want a mc to play from start to finish (11 frames) upon rollover and upon rollout i want it to play backwards to the first frame. Accurately.
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
if (activ.currentFrame <= 11)
{
[Code]....
Currently i JUST goes to the next frame. So i need something like currentFrame +1 or something?

I am trying to get the f4v movie called myMovie.f4v to move forward one frame at a time every 10 seconds. I created a countdown that makes the movie play after x amount of seconds but I need to make the movie advance only one frame and the count again.
import fl.video.*;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var flvPlayer:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
addChild(flvPlayer);
[Code] .....
I need to change this line to step the movie one frame forward kind of a play next frame.

[URL]
Above is the webstie in question. When you hit the Benefit button for example it takes you to a url /benefits.html/.
When I originally created the flash project I accidentally wrote in the url with the finishing slash. Now that I have gone back and removed the slash from my project, saved and uploaded .swf to my web, the project still redirects to benefits.html/

I have simple flash CS4 file (AS3) with a video playback component in a movie clip called "video". The only other thing in this flash movie is a script to load another SWF file as soon as the video is done playing....If I use stop() on the frame with the video - it will play - but then the playhead will not move forward to the next frame which has the next script and if I leave the stop() off - it plays only a a few frames of the video and moves on to the next frame and executes the script that loads the swf file.
Everything I've read requires a button event - and I don't need a button. I just need the video to play - then the next script to execute.Here are the only scripts in the flash movie:
***************************** // in the frame containing video component
stop()
*********************************** // in the next frame after video component.
stop();

I have a group of pictures which are going to be overlapping. I want the user to be able to view the whole picture (bring it to the front) when they roll the cursor over that picture. I'm sure this is very easy to do but I'm not so experienced with flash coding yet.

I 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.

I know you can put a playback component on a FLV. Is it possible to have a playback component on a swf?

I have an ad banner in which I am certain I touched nothing that would affect the lack of looping in the file and lo and behold some elemnts loop even though in the actionscript it says to stop looping it....The trace says it played out the function to stop looping but it still does. I am not an actionscript pro but could anyone PLEASE possibly look at the file and tell me how to make sure EVERYTHING stops looping? The looping is causing google to prevent us from putting up the banners

Problem is that my rewind and fast forward buttons do not work properly in the sense that they start to mess up when you fast forward or rewind past the current scene. It seems to just skip through the whole movie and totally mess up the animation.the code for the controls is on a single layer and reads as the following:
stop();
play_btn.onRelease = function (){
play();

As 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.

I 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 ??)
