View 8 Repliesi usually write my code with textmate.
a custom command for testing the proj directly in flash is:
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash CS5/Adobe Flash CS5.app /tmp/fc.jsfl
what about the flash standalone player?
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4/player/mac/Flash Player.app /tmp/fc.jsfl

View 1 RepliesThe flash player has a little window that can be opened (similar to flash->settings) telling the user to update the player if the movie loaded is for a more recent version. How can you instruct the player to do this? ITV have managed it with their catchup-tv player.
Context: I am allowing users to copy flash into their PowerPoint presentations and would like to tell them to update their flash player if necessary. I am not embedding a web page in the power point so no JS can be run for checking etc (because I know this is not necessary).
[code]I open IMAGEURL.txt, which contains a variable named "img" with a value in it. I call that value and set it to myurl. Then, I load myurl's image into img_container.This works when I test the swf while flash open, but not while I test in the standalone swf thats exported on my computer, or on a browser. Something about internet settings came up as well, til I published to "allow network only".

View 1 RepliesI am making a flash site and there is a main SWF which loads and unloads all other SWFs into and from it. For example, there are links to pages Home, Biography, Gallery, etc. When you click the Gallery link, gallery.swf loads and it is added to the main SWF.
So here's my problem: when I test my movie, everything works perfectly, but when I open the SWF that was created by testing movie in a stand-alone Flash Player or a browser, those SWF's sometimes don't load. If I click Biography link, for example, it usually doesn't load biography.swf but if I click Gallery link, which may or may not load gallery.swf, and then Biography link, there's a greater chance that biography.swf will be loaded.
I have a bunch of flv files and at the momment when a user clicks on the link to each of the files on my site, they are prompted to download each FLV file or asked how to open the video. Is it possible so that when the user clicks on the link the file opens and plays in a flv player( not embedded though), without asking to be downloaded or how to open the video ? Do i have to somehow add the player code to the flv file ?

View 2 RepliesI've created a custom video player which links to a specific Video with:
theVideo.attachVideo(ns);
ns.play("videoName.flv");
I have a client who wants multiple players on a page, each playing a different video. The tricky part is that they want to be able to add videos to their website with this custom player on their own, without having to go into the flash file.
Anyone have an idea or where I can find out how to do this? I dont' think XML would work, because it would still have to call a specific node inside flash...and this one swf should be able to work with any .flv they want.

View 2 RepliesI'm basically looking for something that can play/stream a variety of formats if possible (or if not, to have an easy way for non-technies to convert them to the desired format). I'm also looking for something easy to setup - like including a javascript tag at the top of the page and then perhaps using a div, or just 1 line of script code to make it work. If it's flash, then have to be simple to setup too.
