Professional :: Unload Swf After Done Playing And Return To Initial Frame In Containing Swf
Nov 18, 2010
I have a Flash animation that loads a quick animation and then on a button click loads and external swf while at the same time moves the playhead on the timeline to frame 2 so that it has a blank stage to play on. The external swf then loads and plays. At the end of the external swf's animation I would like it to unload and then return to frame one of the containing movie. I am assuming that on the last frame of the external swf I should be putting some actionscript that will unload the movie and then talk to the initial containing flash telling it to return to frame 1.
The main swf button that loads the external swf is using a code snippet from the AS3 CS5 library and looks like this...
[Code]....
It is also using gotoAndStop(2); for the same button.
So to unload the external swf and return would I use something like... this.unload(gotoAndStop(1));

I have tried several suggestions on this forum to resolve my issue, but it is obvious to me I am missing something because I am a NOVICE Flash developer. I have everything working in my Flash file EXCEPT I want to use this code to play a .swf file. When the swf file is done playing OR the user clicks the return to Main Menu button, they return to frame 1.[code]The .swf file plays and when I click Return to the Main Menu button, only certain items display from frame 1. The .swf file is still loaded hiding the items that should display on frame 1. I have attached a screen shot of what happens when I click the "Return to Main Menu" button.

When I use the play option under "control" menu every thing runs perfectly. When I try to test movie under control menu, play as exported .swf, or debug movie, etc. the animation is stuck at the initial screen.

I don't have quite a good enough grasp on AS3 just yet, but I'm getting there.I have a movie that has an intro to it. It also has buttons that take them to subsequent pages.Once they go back, I'd like the intro portion of the movie to not play. In other words, I'd like it to start at a particular frame after the initial visit to it.I think this can be done with Local Shared Objects,

The issue i'm having is that i want to have dispersed code-generated stars, and then they form a form (reindeer, santa, etc).
The idea is how i make the stars disperse and then return to their previous positions, knowing that the initial positions were randomly generated as well.

How do you return to a specified frame if the movie is idle for 2 minutes? I have a interactive flash movie that is playing on a touch screen. I want to return to a certain frame if no one has touched it in 2 minutes.

(i'm using addChild(); to show external swf)

Basically I have a flash website built on different frames of the timeline, the simplest way I think.Some of these frames have movie clips embedded into them using the flv playback component class.The problem I have is the following, the site works fine and videos play fine, but whenever I navigate offa part of the website to another, from a frame to another - the sound of the clips that were playing keepsplaying on the background and never stop and it keeps building up every time I navigate of.f each page.I want to remark that I believe is not only the sound that keeps playing "invisible" but the whole clip butThis is the AS code for my buttons on an example frame, would you be so kind to tell me what I should add or change
stop();cvbtn15.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onClick25);function onClick25(event:MouseEvent){ gotoAndStop(27);}showbtn15.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onClick26);function

I have multiple frames with stop-points and labels on my timeline and an action where if the user holds down the button for >1 sec it will go to one frame, if <1 sec it will "gotoAndPlay" a warning animation. after that animation plays i want them to be sent back to the initial frame that they were previously in.

When I trace the next highest depth at the initial frame of my SWF it returns 9877. Is this due to the way I setup the objects and layers through authoring? The reason I ask is that this is somehow interfering with my attachMovie and unloadMovie (unloadMovie stops working after another 6 extra depths).

I have noticed once I unload a certain SWF, which has a video embedded into it. The SWF is removed from the stage, but I can still hear the audio from the video playing. So I presume I am actually not fully removing the SWF from the stage.
Here is a link to my site cnrdesign(dot)net
I presume its happening to all my loaded swfs, but if you click on the "work" button, and then the "Interactive" button, and then click on the first thumnail, that opens the SWF with the "MoodApp" video. If you wait for that to load and start playing and then close that window, you still hear the video playing.
Im not 100% but I think this is the code used to remove my loader.
Code:
function tweenFinished (e:TweenEvent):void{
var my_loader:Loader = Loader (e.target.obj);
my_loader.unload();

I have two movieclips on the stage mc1 and mc2,the navigation for mc2 and mc1 is in mc1 as as3 and MovieClips suddenly now that I've added some tabs into mc2 (new layer, no instance names yet) the navigation code in mc1 has stopped working,if I change the initial stop command to a later frame in mc1 I can navigate back to the first frame and then to one other place in the menu but after moving away from the first frame I can't seem to get any of the buttons to work, its only if the stop command is on a later page that those buttons will workon the main timeline i'm using;
ActionScript Code:
stop();
mc1.stop();

I have an air project which every seconds reads a txt file. Depending on the content of this file it loads an external swf file (the contents of the file is changed from an external program periodically)Every external swf file gots a flvplayback2.5 inside which loads and play a flv video (everthing is done locally).
The problem comes when the contents of the txt file changes and I have to unload the previous swf and load the new one.Despite the new swf loades plays fine I can still hear the audio of the previous swf playing in background.For the project I used only one Loader in which i load the external swf files. Before loading another swf inside it, I call the Loader.unload() but no luck.I thought that this method would remove also the loaded object but the Adobe reference about the unload() method says:
"Removes a child of this Loader object that was loaded by using the load() method.The property of the associated LoaderInfo object is reset to null.The child is not necessarily destroyed because other objects might have references to it; however,it is no longer a child of the Loader object.As a best practice, before you unload a child SWF file, you should explicitly close any streams in the child SWF file's objects, such as LocalConnection,NetConnection,NetStream, and Sound objects.Otherwise,audio in the child SWF file might continue to play,even though the child SWF file was unloaded.To close streams in the child SWF file,add an event listener to the child that listens for the unload event.When the parent callsLoader.unload(), the unload event is dispatched to the child."
I don't know how interal structure of the external swf is,beacause the customer gave to me only the compiled swf (I guess there's not a lot inside that swf, i think only the flvplayback control, but if i don't know the name of the flvplayback I can't invoke any stop method on it).So, do You know any method to brutally unload the loaded swf, by destroying it,no matter where it hides itself in the dark and misterious jungle of the Flash Player?

I have an urgent issue, I have created an swf file that loads the external FLV, however when finished playing the video stops on the final frame of the FLV.What I want is for the video to unload itself.
if(_root.video1 == undefined){
vStream = "15_IT_CURVES_BECKS_700x400.flv";

I'm developing a Flash application that uses several SWF-files. I have one main SWF and others are loaded into this one dynamically. One of the SWF's I'm loading is showing a video clip. This SWF contains code to load and display an FLV-file immediately after it has been loaded into the main SWF. My problem is that I can't find a way to unload this SWF. Once I've loaded it and it starts to play the video, the video keeps playing forever. Even if I remove it from the displaylist it keeps playing. I can't see it, but I hear the sound continuing.
I've recreated this problem in a small project (see code below). In this project I have a simple button that should toggle whether the video is shown or not. [URL] works as mentioned before: it automatically starts playing a .flv as soon as it is loaded. When I run this I get the following as I click the button:
Click 1: Video shows up and starts to play.
Click 2: Video is hidden, but it's still playing (I can hear the sound).
Click 3: Video is loaded AGAIN. Now I can see the video, but I hear TWO soundtracks!

I have used the following script to load a movie
but.onPress = function () {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
loadMovie("scene_1.swf", "container");
container._x = 150 ;
container._y = 20 ;
}
This works great, but now when the movie scene_1.swf is finished playing I would like the movie to unload automatically and return to the mainstage and continue the scene on the mainstage.

Does anybody know a way to detect what audio is currently being played through a sound channel. i.e. if I set a sound name to "_hitting", and attach this to "mySoundChannel", then mySoundChannel = _hitting.play(); is there any request that will tell me that "_hitting" is being played?

The first time visiting a page containing a ScrollPane, the graphic (a .jpg containing text paragraphs) overflows the ScrollPane. If I click another link on the page and revisit the first link, it works fine. Problem occurs on 3 separate links on the page that have a graphic longer than the ScrollPane.The three links are on the "about" page.I'm using CS5.5, publishing in Flash Player 10.2, ActionScript 2.0. Problem occurs in IE7.0, IE8.0, and Mozilla browse

I'm trying to build a very simple equalizer graphic inside my mp3 player. Basically just a bar that should move up and down with the music. I'm trying to hook it up to the leftPeak of the currently playing mp3, but that value comes back as "0" when traced and so the bar doesn't move. I have tried it with different files to see if its a mono mp3 issue, but no joy. I'm a newbie and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I suppose the title says it all. I can load an external video file (FLV) and I can have it play. I also have the custom buttons made to control the clip. The only thing I have left to do is to have the main timeline move onto frame 2 once the external video reaches its end. I am using actionscript 3 and flash cs 5.5.
