I want to play a video on my website - in its present state its 15 seconds long and stops abruptly so I want to set it to loop continuously to avoid this. I imported the video using flash, and now it is embedded in my .fla file. I've tried several things to get it to loop in CS4 and I'm stumped!! Is there any easy way I can do this? Im new to flash,

View 11 RepliesI have a simple FLA which loops through some keyframes and randomly places movie clips on the stage.
Frame 1:
Contains nothing
Frame 2:
Code:
_root.tile.duplicateMovieClip("tile"+i,i+1)
_root["tile"+i]._x=Math.random()*800;
_root["tile"+i]._y=Math.random()*600;
[code]....
On Frame 4, I add a button which I'd like to use to restart the whole thing.
The button has this AS on it:
Code:
on (release) {
i=0;
var ref = null;

I have an issue with SWFAddress in Flash: when the user navigates to a page within my flash app, I call "setValue". This changes the URL in the browser's address bar, which in turn calls the "externalChange" event in flash. This event causes the flash app to load the page displayed in the url bar... so the app keeps changing the flash page and updating the url bar into infinity.
How do I know if the url bar was changed by flash or manually by the user?
Any way to cancel the flash application if it gets stuck in an infinite loop? I keep having to close the program because it's getting stuck somewhere, either infinite loop or something redundant, but taking forever to track it down...

I've got a game going where portals are randomly placed across the map every X seconds.However, I can't figure out how to stop the portals from spawning on top of each other. I know how to easily do the collision, and check if they're too close to each other.Pretty much what I do is create the portal object, then randomly assign it X and Y values. Then, I do a for loop that loops through all the portals in the portals array, check THEIR X and Y value, checks to see if they're too close...then what? I can't just go "okay, it's too close" and randomly assign it new X and Y values, otherwise it could be on top of ANOTHER portal.What I'm looking for is something that will check the X and Y values of all the portals, then if it is on top of another portal, it will assign new X/Y values. Then, if these are on top, it will do it again. And again, until it gets the job done!

View 4 RepliesI got the code from someone else's flash file and heavily modified it. The MAIN problem is that when the wheel hits zero rotation, the code tells another mc to jump to a frame and do the collisiion check. The problem is this code is in an onEnterFrame so the code has the mc jump to the frame over and over in an endless loop. I need to somehow get that part of the code OUT of the onEnterframe but I cant seem to make it work.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a swf within a html page. There is a function that opens an html page when an object gets to a certain x position. However, when the object gets to that point the new html page (in _self) opens over and over again and get stuck in a loop. Any way to escape this loop and what would be the best way to trigger this new html page to open when the x position of the object is true?[code]
View 3 Repliesim trying to make a website in flash andd everytime it just cycles through all 4 pages in a loop. if i redo the entire site it will work if i test it but as soon as i go to file save as and save it as a new name it goes back to looping and cannot be fixed unless i redo it again. i have 4 layers and the first frame in layer "action" has stop(); as the first line. the syntax is correct and i get zero errors.

View 7 RepliesI have simple sliding pages mechanism in my flash file, all done with AS3 code. Now the pages, which are movieclips, are slid off the screen on a button press. Sometimes, everything goes smoothly, but on some people's computers the sliding pages get stuck in the middle, and then the next slide starts from the wrong position. This throws everything off the loop.
View 1 Replieshow do I get this code to repeat itself continually, because it just executes once. Im not that good with listeners, i know functions and variable etc though im not that bad.
Code:
if (health<=0) { gotoAndStop("mainDead");}
Its on a frame, not a MC.

I am creating a thumbnail scroller and I have everything set to work. The last final issue I'm having is this:
The scroller displays 25 items.
8 at a time.
When you page left/page right it scrolls to the next(or previous) 8 thumbs in the list.
This is what we want to happen:
Once the final (25th) thumb is reached it starts over on the first thumb again and we are back at 1. So that it becomes an endless loop.[code]...
I'm not a Flash developer, but I'm working on a Flash advertising issue where a Flash ad (movie/SWF file) is sometimes having portions of its animation panels or timeline (specifically some text copy) getting stuck and then they stack/layer/overlap on top of each other at the end of the final frame of animation.We were able to reproduce this only sporadically in IE7 but someone else reported the issue using IE8.A screenshot of the portions that are overlapping is pasted further below.The "Dr. Ted Lawrence" and "A pioneer in tumor radiation therapy." text copy portions are sometimes getting stuck and are sometimes overlapping onto the final frame of the animation.
URL to the Flash SWF movie file:

I do not have the .FLA file.Would that be needed to troubleshoot this issue further?I know I'm probably not using the correct terms exactly, etc,

View 1 RepliesRight now I have a flash movie that runs about 100 frames then stops and acts as buttons.
I don't want it to loop from the beginning, I just want it to loop the last 10 frames over continuisly.
I have a movie which is serving as a button.When you rollover the image, it grows, and stops.When you rollOut, it shrinks, and stops.This code works fine. The Problem:When you scroll the mouse over quickly, the animation get stuck and doesn't execute the rollOut code.This is most likely because the first rollOver action hasn't yet completed.Here's my code:
thumb_test_4.onRollOver=function () {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}[code]....
Using a bunch of the tutorials on this great site, I've been teaching myself AS, and inparticular the XML parse, etc. with the loop commands to load an ideterminate number of images, etc. attributed in an XML file.I've got the attached code to work before - and it works well here too, loading all the thumbnails in their correct location, and as per the XML file. BUT now it's part of this page, the 'current_thumb' seems stuck on the last thumbnail, and a rollOver of any thumbnail will cause only the last one to action. In addition, when I put the trace command in on the onRollOut function (trace(current_thumb_mc) I get "_level0.menu_mc.item3_mc" no matter which of the four tumbnails I rollOver.

I've created a menu that appears as a series of cubes. The action script for these boxes will work on a stand alone file... The main menu uses a series of buttons that work like variables and also works fine in a test file... when the movie for the "architecture" button is loaded it loads the content_mc and then sub menu goes nuts. The buttons continue to cycle their movie clips regardless of the mouse position.
