I didn't get an idea how to stop the autoplay function..
1) What is the recommended/best practice method for loading videos (flv, f4v, mp4, etc.) from a play list. Some of the files might be on the local file system, some might be on a streaming server and uses rtmp.
2) Does the VideoPlayer.play internally use NetStream/NetConnection objects? I could get the files to play using both these methods - not sure if one is better than the other. I didn't see any references about streaming in the VideoPlayer.play method - but it does work with rtmp URLs!
3) For a long running standalone application, how do I make sure the VideoPlayer/NetStream objects are properly released/garbage collected? Right now I am closing the netstream/netconnection after playing every file - mainly because I do not know which server/file system the next video is being loaded from.
I am playing multiple short video clips behind each other and I want it to look like it is one continuous video. Is there a way to stich them together so that it's unnoticable when you set a new video source.
At the moment I am having a problem where a black frame is inserted when I set a new video source. The order of events seems to be something like this[code]...
I'm making an interactive film. At certain points within the film, the viewer has the ability to select from a few options that will direct them to an external video clip (they are flashback scenes). The main story pauses when the user selects a flashback scene and I'm clear on how to achieve this.
However, my issue is that once the flashback scene ends and the external video closes, I'm not sure how the main story will resume. Is it possible for it to auto-play (resume) in some way? My last resort would be to have the viewer select a play button - this is only because I do not want a break in the narrative and want to limit the amount of clicks the viewer has to make.

I have question regarding removing instantiated objects. Let's say i have a main class in which i instantiate a custom video player (or whatever) class:

From my experience, if i don't destroy for example event listeners from my VideoPlayer class and just remove VideoPlayer class the way described they still get fired with null exception messages etc. This is something that's bugging me for a while so i would really like to know what's best thing to do here?
The video seeks normally when first playing but when it finishes i canīt seek the video again. I used a listener to call a function after the event TimeEvent.COMPLETE occurs(video finishes). In the function i call the function player.seek(20) for example but it doesnīt work. The video keeps in the end of it.

View 6 RepliesWhen I export my flash movie to be hosted then embed it on my site (myspace) the flash banner(no controls) doesn't AutoPlay. I checked and unchecked Paused at Start in the publish settings, published and exported, but both times when I hover/click on the blank/unloaded movie the menu shows the Play option unchecked. My file has a preloader and the movie/content starts on frame 2. I have CS4/AS3.have the movie autopaly on it own. (I wish Adobe would have named the option Autoplay instead of Paused at Start,I wonder who came up with that).Here's my code:
Code: Select allstop();

View 2 RepliesIt's very often in game we need a clip auto-remove when an animation finished. In AS2 I attached a clip on the scene, then on a keyframe of this clip (which is in the library) I wrote this.removeMovieClip(). That's all and all worked good. Now in AS3 I make like that :
ActionScript Code:
var mc1:mc=new mc();
addChild(mc1);
and in one keyframe of the clip I write :
ActionScript Code:
removeChild(this); //I also tried : removeChild(MovieClip(parent).mc1);
I see my clip on the scene but I get an error when it's time to remove it. What change to make it works?
took me like 20 minutes to get why my code is not functionning... this line: tempRef.x=(limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2)+(tempRef.width+dist)*(i+1); after auto format becomes like this: tempRef.x=limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2+tempRef.width+dist*i+1; that's not the same thing at all...may I know why this is happening?

View 9 RepliesIsn't there a simple "remove all children" function in flash? I don't understand why this code isn't working. I add children via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChildAt(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i],i);
loadCount++
}
And then remove them via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChildAt(i);
}
But I get an error that the supplied index is out of bounds, and yet one clip is still left on stage. Likewise, if I try to add them without levels, like this:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
loadCount++
}
And remove:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
}
I get the same error.

The above code adds a listener to a couple of MC's. Originally the methods were anonymous but I have named them clickFunc() in order to try an reference them in my remove listener.
Here is my remove listener code. Both of these snippets are in separate functions. The add listener method is called before the remove method.
