I am working on a cartoon and the sound synchs up fine from regular frame to frame. But it won't synch when I want the sound to synch up with the end of a motion tween.URL...
View 1 RepliesI'm working in Flash CS3. My animation is about a minute long, with a single audio track that plays from beginning to end. The sound quality is noticably better when I set the synching to Event, but unless I set it to Stream the sound falls behind the animation. Is there any way to maintain proper synchronization with the Event setting? Also: will the lag be consistent on different machines and players? I thought about adjusting the timing of the animation so that it matches the Event-set sound in playback, but that's such a clunky a solution it seems likely to cause other problems.
View 2 RepliesI have a 5 minute flash movie that has great sound synchronization with the motion when I export as a SWF. However, when I export as a Quicktime file (.mov), sometimes the sound is ahead of the image. Is there a setting I can tweak during Export to remedy this? (so far I have tried to save the Video as "H.264" as well as "Animation". And for sound I have had no luck with the setting of "None" or "Apple Lossless."
View 2 RepliesI have created a bouncing logo (similar to a screensaver). The MC loops and I have added some motion trail using dupe mc's, however when the main MC loops back to the start, the motion trail seems to go out of synch and fall behind in its positioning. I have attached the FLA to show you what I mean and you can see the AS that I have used.
View 2 RepliesMy movie is five about minutes long with audio and an offscreen timeline move clip containing action script to control other movie clips or play the root directory. After about a minute or so, movie clips get out-of-synch with the audio, apparently its getting bogged down. My swf file doesn't seem that big, about 2.2MB and my move clips aren't that complex, although up to three levels deep.
View 3 RepliesI have a video that consists of an imported FLV to thetimeline so I could put a new background behind the alpha-channeledbackground of the movie and put other thingsin front of it. When Iexport as SWF it plays just great. However, the download is akiller over DSL speed connection, so I thought I'd try making thefinished product into an FLV. To do that I have to export as QTmovie first, then from QT Pro export to FLV. It loads much quicker,however the movie's video and audio get out of synch by the firstminute (it's 4 1/2 minutes long), and by the end it looks terrible.

View 1 RepliesI have 2 movieClips loading images using XML files.
I need to set the position on this movieclips from the parent depending on their width.
The problem is that the parent have to wait that both children have loaded the images before to proceed.
I have a to movies on the timeline. And they are playing at different speeds depending on the processor available on the computer, so the get out of synch with each other, is there a way to lock the rate at which the movie symbols animate so that they never get out of synch? Wish I was able to be mare articulate, not exactly sure how to ask the question
View 3 RepliesI have swfs for every letter of the alphabet containing a story and a song. And one swf as a loader for each letter as requested from a menu. These are then published into html.
Every file is working as normal individually and when loaded in the loader swf.
But when viewed in a browser the audio karaoke for the letter I is out of synch. and only the letter I. this happens locally and online.
The I.swf file individually and when opened in loader swf work fine. Its only happening when viewed with a browser (IE and Firefox)
all the audio are mp3 loaded from external files. But Ie also tried placing the audio in the swf timeline but the same problem occurred.
A co-worker thought it might be the file size or bit-rate of the mp3 but thats not the case because all the audio files are the same compression and bitrate The file size of the audio or the swf are not the largest in the collection either. So this rules out swf/mp3 file size and or mp3 settings.[FONT="] Im really stumped by this, because every other letter works fine, and as far as I can see they are all the same settings.
I'm using narrator clips (imported mp3 files) that I place every so often, set to Stream (as opposed to Event). This works fine, as usual.That is, UNTIL I use a "Next" or "Back" button I've implemented to go to the next section of the program. I'm using a simple gotoAndPlay("Slide"+myCurrentSlide); where "Slide" is the first part of the frame label, and myCurrentSlide is a number that increments as the movie progresses.
When the user clicks the Next button, the flash movie successfully moves ahead to the proper frame on the timeline, but the audio is out of synch, (comes in half way through a sentence, even though the frame label is placed in between mp3 files on the timeline.
If I perform a motion tween along a curved path, Flash CS4 does not allow to change the curves to "corner point" or "linear" in the motion editor. URL...

View 2 RepliesI am facing a problem in one of my animation with flash CS4 - I have nested a Shape Tween in a Motion tween to get more control over the easers and effects, unfortunately I am not able to view on the timeline of my Motion Tween the action of the Shape tween nested inside.
It only show the first shape of the Shape Tween during the entire Motion Tween and that is really a problem for me because I need to see the final frame result of that Shape tween to be able to position it in a precise way on my scene according to other instances.

I'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...
after I create a motion tween, why is it that I don't always see the path of that tween? It seems that I've got to shuffle stuff around a bit before I actually see the colored path. Is there some trick to this?
View 5 RepliesI am trying to move the instance in a particular path, but by the time I finish defining the entire path, the first few points all go astray. I then completed only 5 change points, but by then the 2nd, 3rd and 4th point were all astray, as in, not in the position I had originally defined them.
I am very frustrated with this as I have been working on this file for ages now, and nothing of this sort happened before. I have redone the tween atleast five times but it still acts weird by the time i move ahead a few frames.
I created a motion tween. I stried to put an action script, stop();, at the end of the tween but it says "Current selection cannot have actions applied to it.". How do I stop the tween then?
View 15 RepliesI am new to flash and working on creating a simple animation. I have the objects ready, but problem is I can't seem to get motion tween working. Following this, I tried a very basic motion tween just increasing the size of text from one frame to another and can't get even this to work. I followed the basic steps, converted the text objects to symbol etcetera. What is seen is for frames 1-9 there is no change and in frame 10 there is sudden change in size. I also notice that there is no 'arrow' observed in the tween as shown in a sample tutorial.
View 10 RepliesI'm finding it useful to add labels to my timeline so I can easily see where animations start and stop for different symbols. However, I can not seem to label sections that are motion tweened. The entire motion tween section is selected when I just click on any section of it. Even if I use CTRL + click to select a single frame, there is no option for "label" in the properties window like there are for other frames. It shows the motion tween options.So is there a simple way to label a motion tween?
View 2 RepliesI have an object with 500 Frames. I gave it a Motion Tween. Now I want to cut it down to 100 frames,without changing the Tween duration. Usually you can insert a blank keyframe, or remove the last 400 frames on that layer. But since it's a Motion Tween you cannot?
WTH is going on with Flash's timeline editor, this is ridiculously unintuitive.
I'm trying to create a Motion Tween where at a certain point the initial image it's replaced by another one.I've tryied to do "Swap Symbol" but the symbol changes in all the tween.

View 3 RepliesI've made 3 different symbols of a running Super Mario -- the first one is his first running frame in the Super Mario Bros. video game, the second one is his second running frame, etc. I would like to create a motion tween of these 3 symbols, so it looks like he's running from one point of the screen to the other. I'm unsure of how I would go ahead to accomplish this.
View 5 RepliesI'm rather belatedly getting to grips with the new tweening system introduced in CS4. To be quite honest it's been a nightmare, but I'm starting to see its good points now.One thing that still drives me crazy is when you create a new tween and Flash creates a new layer for you and puts the tween into it. Why? And how do I stop it? Over the course of a 10 min animation with a lot of tweens I could end up with hundreds of layers
View 2 RepliesI have no problem creating shape tweens in Flash CS4, but motion tweens are a problem. Here's what I do:
- I draw a rectangle and convert it to a symbol on frame 1.
- I create a key frame on frame 25, where I place the symbol in a different position.
- On frame 1 I create a motion tween.
When I run this nothing happens until frame 24, and on 25 the symbol appears on its final position. I can do the movement with a shape tween, but I want to do it with a motion tween, as this may be a question at the exam next week.
When I go to edit a layer with a motion tween, it records all my movements. How do I edit motion tweens correctly?
View 2 RepliesThis is a ridiculously easy problem but I'm drawing a mental blank at how to do it so in advance I apologize for the simplicity. I'm trying to get a movie clip to rotate and scale automatically without being clicked. I would like it to gradually rotate by 90 degrees and scale by 150%, but I can't figure out how to get a motion tween to do it and am having to do it manually frame by frame. What is the code to do this?
