Professional :: Version 10.2 Freezes Computer And Makes Screen Melt?
Feb 16, 2011
I'm having trouble with my computer and the latest version of Flash. What happens is that everytime i get in contact with a flash-based media on the internet (Youtube, banners, games, etc.) my computer freezes and after 15 seconds it starts 'melting', as in the pixels slowly turning blue and black. This happened right after i installed the latest version of Flash. I have to take the battery out of the computer to get it working, which is offcourse not healthy.
Does anybody have an idea what this is due to and how it can be fixed? I am pretty desperate.
I'm running Vista, 32 bit, and the latest version of Firefox. Any time I enlarge a video I'm watching on a website that uses the Flash Player, (youtube and others) to full screen, the computer eventually locks up. The video continues normally, but hitting escape does nothing to reduce the video back to the smaller size. I then hit CTRL ALT DEL and still nothing changes. The mouse can't move the cursor, hitting tab doesn't work, nothing.
I've tried uninstalling the Flash Player using the offline uninstaller, and reinstalling the latest Flash Player using the offline installer. I've gone to the Flash "about" page after each of those 2 actions to make sure that Flash is completely uninstalled, and reinstalled. I've also run CCleaner after uninstalling Flash Player just to make sure no registry entries, etc. remained.
the experts here please recommend some product to record a computer screen session that then imports well into Flash? I want to build training videos that record the screen session and my voice and am looking for a software product that can do this.
I've just stumbled upon a case when Flash app freezes in production Flash Player and works smoothly in a debug version. It doesn't throw any errors or exceptions. Has anyone ever encountered anything like this? Why is it happening or how one is supposed to debug in such case?And a side question - what exactly is different in debug version from internal point of view? Any good writeup on the topic?
UPDATE:I didn't mention, but the trouble is with Flash Player 11, it probably matters, cause Flash Player 10 doesn't have any problems with the same code.
Why the same fla source code publish different size of swf file in different computer with same version of adobe flash which is cs4?1 is about 3mb only and the other is about 20mb.The different is too big!What can i do?
i am creating an interactive application that will run independantly on a computer.I have implimented the full screen stage display state to a btn, and it works great!
-------code----- import flash.display.StageDisplayState; function goFullScreen():void {
[code].....
however as soon as i add a video [i will be adding several] the video takes on the full screen property, and that is not the desired effect.I have used several diff ways to import the video but as soon as i call the full screen, it goes to an all black screen.
I've got this really weird problem. I have the following code:
[Code]....
The thing is, after I setup the onMouseDown, Anywhere I click on the screen run that function, not only the listMask movieclip! The movieclip is just a plain rectangle that was drawn by code, nothing special, no hidden graphics. Even if I don't draw anything in the movieclip, the whole screen is still clickable (as well as areas outside the screen, if we maximize the player window). This movieclip was created with .createEmptyMovieClip
The code that I'm working on is HUGE (over 10 .as files, each with 1000+ lines), so I won't post any of it, but you should be able to follow the general idea.
What I'm doing is loading movieclips within movieclips.
For example, let's say I have a movieclip with a black background and two buttons. When I click on one of the buttons, it loads an XML file which contains labels and images and data. However, this XML file is loaded INTO the same movieclip, so that it is kinda on top of it. That means that the black background is completely covered up by the new images loaded. However, since the XML file is getting changing data, I have a refresh function which removes the XML movieclip and loads it again.
The problem is that when the XML movieclip gets removed temporarily to refresh, the black background and buttons underneath can be seen and that doesn't look very good.
The code is too extensive for me to figure out how to put everything into a new movieclip dynamically.
What I thought of doing was to create a movieclip in between these two movieclips which displays a blank white screen. I got that to work, but I had a few problems with the back button because now it needed to remove two mcs instead of one. However, that is also working now. Is there a better way to do this instead of creating a blank mc?
The ACTUAL problem I have is this: When the page refreshes, the labels from the XML file remain...which makes it look ugly before the pictures get loaded. I think that this might just be that the labels load a lot faster than the pictures, thus, giving the illusion that they never refreshed in the first place; I'm not sure about that though. Is there any way to get the images to load before the labels get reloaded (if they do in fact get reloaded)?
I've been adding some components to a Flex 4 app (it was originally Flex 3 but has been ported). Some of these components make the app go blank when it loads. I'm not even able to see the loading progress bar. Just white.
To the root tag causes this. I also was able to make it happen when I tried setting a custom components skin from my style sheet instead of from the skinClass property.
The navigation buttons in my .fla file are set to the font, Arial MT in Bold. It displays no problem on my desktop computer. However, when I view the website on my laptops, the font changes to what looks to be something like Times New Roman. The same thing happens with my "Read More" button text. It's also originally in Arial MT Bold. On my desktop it appears fine but on my 2 laptops it appears to be in Times New Roman. This is more of an issue because I have these buttons underlined. When viewing in my laptops, these underlines appear to be too long. If I shorten it, it'll probably appear to be too short when I view on my desktop. How can I get the font to be one consistent font for all computers?
How does [URL].. capture a computer screen from a browser using Java Applet? Any suggestion or a lead in how to accomplish this? Is there other way to do using using different technology such as Flash?

I want to make a flash animation that makes an object move across the screen to a certain point, depending on what is typed into a text box, and i want many of these moving objects at once, so that you can type in a number and then the object moves to that point. Can this be done?I have used flash but have done verry little with the actions of flash, so please walk me through any actions that will need doing
I made a gallery, and i have 5 buttons. For each button a movieclip plays (a fade efect from 0 to 1 alpha). The movie is shown as long as the mouse button is held down, by having the scene return to the starting frame which has no movie clip. The problem is that if the mouse is within the movie clip when the button is released the movie freezes until i click another. More precisely it doesn't go to the first frame. How can i fix the problem?
I am creating a map (a jpg) and when you click in certain hotspots it uses tween lite to change the scale of the map to 50 to show info on the region. There are 20 regions and every region has its own JPG (900x600px 60k each). All JPG are inside the SWF (its size is 1.3Mb). The problem is that when you are navigating the map sometimes freezes and you need to refresh the page to unfreeze it. Could be this because the large amounts of images or maybe the scale of 50 I am using?
I am facing a very peculiar problem while creating a preloader in flash. I have created a flash image gallery entirely in flash as requested. And a preloader. Now when I test my movie in local machine using simulate download feature the preloader works just fine. However when I upload it on the server the first frame of the preloader can be seen and it freezes there nothing happens though after some time the movie loads and rest of the animation then plays fine. I have checked my code it doesn't give any error on compiling. The flash SWF is being inserted in a Joomla driven website. However, that will not be a cause of problem I guess as an old preloader seems to run fine. I am using Flash CS5 Demo. I also tried saving file in CS4 and then publishing it. Still no luck.
I inserted a video into my movie clip. It freezes sometimes if internet connection is not fast enough but freezes at any frame. I want a loading icon displayed once it stops and disappear when it continues.
When I use TLF text in CS5 flash seems to use to capacity / I cannot do any clicks for around 10 secs when selecting/deselecting textfield. What could be the reason for flash slowing down so extremely?
Im using WinXP, SP3 System: HP xw6600 Workstation @ 2.50GHz, 3,25 GB GB of RAM,
I have a pretty long timeline animation to be edited; in CS4 editing the file was no problem, you could scroll through the frames without problems, using CS5 and trying to do the same the app freezes for several seconds and then reacts and performs the last click you did - honestly I can definitely no edit the animation with CS5.Is there any sort of option which may cause this strange/slow behavior?
Recently any flash videos I watch keep freezing even when the video is fully buffered. The sound continues to play but the picture stops. It can jerk into life after a few seconds but then it'll freeze again and keep doing this for the duration of the video. I have no problems on my Windows PCs on the same web connection.[code]...
I have built a flash game. It seems to load fine. I have a landing screen that clicks to the first question. At the first question I can mouse across the answers, but it will not progress. In addition the music does not play. After a few minutes it does play and plays each time. If I empty my cache file it does the same.
I got a new computer several days ago and it doesn't have Flash 8 or Higher. how to transfer Flash 8 programs from my old computer to my new computer? where to find free downloads of Flash 8 or higher?
I downloaded the trial version so I could work on the final project for class but for some reason when I tried to save it my computer froze up. Is this because the save feature is turned off for the trial version or was it just my computer? If I can't save using the trial version than I wasted memory on my computer and a lot of my time downloading the trial version that isn't going to be very useful to me.
What makes a camera compatible with flash? I have a camera I purchased from IDS Imaging and it shows up in my camera list in as3 with print out the array made from Camera.names. But when I go to use it, it just doesn't show up. I do have a lens on it, and it can see it working when I used the IDS software provided for testing. I've also been able to make it work in c#, but I want to use it for a flash app I'm developing.
I'm not really good with AS3 yet so maybe somebody can help meI found a pong game tutorial and it works fine.[code]Now I want that two computers play against eachother.So no player input only two computer that play.I tried a lot with the script but it doesn't work.
