I saw that I need a loader and I can load everything.. but how many loaders I must have? Can I use only one changing the function called on end event?
View 3 RepliesIs there way to get the browser to always load any swf files before everything else on a page (exept the external css and swfobject.js). Using Firebug's Net statistics I can see the swf files generally load last.
We have all our external js files inserted at the bottom of the page to help loading times.
When i create a menu, the dropdowns go behind the flash element. But in some sites, like Digg, it is shown above. z-index is of no use
View 2 RepliesI am looking to create flash movies that include video and that have dynamic text in them.Basically the concept is we send out an email with a link in it that has an ID in a query string value. Once the page loads It hits our database and pulls out the name of the person tied to the ID in the querystring, then the page would need to pass this information on to the flash movie and update a symbol with the text. Does this sound crazy or is it possible? We also want to export it to html5 so it works on all devices and browsers
View 2 RepliesI am cutting my teeth with some actionscript.My knowledge of programming and AS is limited but I am getting familiar with the language.In my fla i am using this code as a custom document class:[code]We managed to get it to preserve the aspect ratio when it detects a RESIZE event.Now, the fla file is empty. I want to use the swf this actionscript generates to call several different .flv files.The problem is, I don't know how to add functionality (for instance, a button) that is placed on top of the video. Seems the video is loaded ontop of everything else.

I need a video which has been embedded into Flash to stretch, regardless of aspect ratio.This video will then reveal some content which I don't want stretching at all.I've tried using the "exactFit" scaleMode property and tried to find a way of that only affecting the video and not everything in the swf, but I failed. I've also tried using Stage.width/height and applying it to the dimensions of the video but t

Is this performed with CSS and using multiple DIVs with varying Z Indices.

View 20 RepliesI'm using swftools and the jw media player in Drupal. The vids are coming in from another server. The generic player was set to be the default. The generic player only has autoplay which we do not want (that's all we want to change). I tried Flowplayer3 but it supposedly doesn't work with xml. I'm trying jw now, and can get the player working, but it has a skin I don't like (it also won't play the xml-called vids) and I think the skin is coming in from the other server with the videos as it looks too good to be the generic player skin. So in summary, I need to keep the skin and just turn off autoplay somehow. I've read something about Flash doesn't like to pass xml between servers. but if that's the case then how come the videos played with the generic player?[code]...

View 1 RepliesI am creating a Flash site for a client who wants to display many (about 15) fairly hi-res photos as well as a video. I am using the Video class to display and control the video, and the Loader class to load the photos. I preload them from an XML file up front, while "loading..." is displayed.
The video plays immediately after the loader finishes, and the user can also choose to view the slideshow, which has left/right arrows which show each photo with a simple fade tween between each one.
The problem I am having seems to be that when all these assets are loaded, the video and the "fade" effects are very choppy. If I cut down on the number of photos, everything works fine; but I have to include all of them, plus the video.
I am storing all the Loader instances in an array, and when they are requested, I add them to the stage and fade them in. When it finishes fading in I remove the previous one from the stage. So they are all stored in Flash's "memory", but there is only one Loader or Video instance on the stage at any given time. Is there a better way to handle this? Perhaps some way to cache the images but not bog down Flash's memory? I would prefer to have everything loaded up front in order to avoid needing a "loading..." for every slide.
We're putting together one of those "greeting spokesperson" videos for our website. The video is about 30 seconds long, and on the first load, it always disappears in the middle of a sentence. Refresh the page, and it works fine thereafter. The video plays through a FLV Player inside a SWF. The SWF is 695 frames long and has the following characteristics: 'fade-out' alpha tween starting at Frame 685A Stop action at the very last frameThe following code on the FLV player:
on (complete) {
getURL('javascript:removeIt();'); }
I am trying to simply load and play a simple video clip using as3 code only no flash studio as3 authoring. I have not found anyone that knows how to do this with only as3 code. This is a flv video file. I just need a starting point in AS3. I need only the the as3.
