I am following this tutorial (Url...) on how to build an audio mixer in Flash. I am trying to display the duration/position of one of the sound objects in the mixer (all sounds in the mixer have the same length). I have tried adding this code to the actions under frame label "ready".[code]I have two dynamic text fields named Text01 and Text02 on the main timeline. Yet, nothing populates.
View 2 Repliesis it possible to make the duration of a movieclip equal the duration of the preloader, i mean is it possible to make something like, the time the preloader needs to reach the 100% = the duration of the movieclip? i'm using AS 3.0 and flash CS4 just in case it helps here is my code for the loader:
Code:

View 1 RepliesI have created an animation in Flash which is 2mins long at 25fps, so 3000 in frame length. However when I export it as either a swf or a mov it plays for 6mins! The frame rate is definetely 25fps in Quicktime export settings also but still it doesn't play for the correct duration? The Quicktime movie says 6mins also desptire the fps matching.
The movie is a standard timeline animation?
I've developed a neat WindowSWF panel after watching Lee's demonstration video. I got everything I needed to work, but I'm having trouble getting information from my sound files. Basically I have a list of sound objects (.wav format) in my library and I want to find the duration of each file so that I can add them to existing movie clips, then add or remove frames depending on the length of the sound file on the frame. I've been pouring over the jsfl actions libraries and can't find any method to get the duration of a selected sound file.

How to get video duration in as3 ?
View 6 RepliesI noticed many players display audio track duration before loading the sound file, but I cannot figure out how that is done. So how can I get the duration of an mp3 file in Flex without having to load the file in a Sound object ? Think about loading 1000+ files in an application that has to immediately display the duration for each track.
View 2 Repliesi have a tween function which fades in a display object over time.
when i set my tween duration to 0 nothing happens. isn't the tween suppose to animate in 0 seconds (or frames) to emulate no animation at all?

I was wondering if it is possible to get the duration of an MP4 video. I am attempting to make a scrubber bar for my video player following Lee's tutorial however in the video he uses an FLV with metadata. Is there any way to produce the same effect with an MP4?
View 3 RepliesMy project is about a video player who read an xml list, but I have to play FLV video from an exact point, so I'm using xmoov-php, and it works perfectly. My problem is that I have to calculate this point from the total duration of the xml list (the sum of every FLV duration it cointains)... so I have to get the duration of every FLV in the list.
I know I can use onMetaData for get the duration, but I need it of ALL the video in the list, and it works only if I play the single video, don't it? And I cannot play every video in the list for obtain it... I also tried to put the play() function in a for-cicle, but it doesn't work: it gets me the duration of only the last video in the list cause is the last element the for-cicle passed trought.
Is there another method for get the duration without have the FLV to play?

always displays 0.

I have a project that requires a rollover. When the object is rolled over, a quote animates (fades in). On roll out, it fades out. The easy way would be to do it on the timeline, but if the roll over isn't long enough for the animation (fade in) the roll out starts at 100% alpha then down to 0%.
how to expand the animation for 3 more quotes.

Is it possible using command line, or a php file to get the duration of an flv file using the flash media server. I used the flvcheck file to fix the meta data, and was using the duration operator but it didn't come up with anything. I am guessing the duration operator just shows if there is errors with this?

I need to use tween alpha, but I want to change the duration of the tween with some buttons. Does anybody have any suggestion or example?I think that it is possible if I use variable for the duration and create a new Number by each button, but I don't know how. The tween is as below:var TweenPulseA:Tween = new Tween (right_mc, "alpha", None.easeOut, right_mc.alpha, 1, pd, true);
View 8 RepliesI have a mp3 file and I would like to play it from one position and for a certain duration. I have first used the Sound class, the play method where I can specify the start but not the duration. I have looked then at SoundEffect class where you can specify a duration and a startTime. However I do not know how to play it from a AS3 class not from MXML : there is a play method ... but I get no sound!

The problem is, when I move the scrubber, it doesn't load the duration accurately wherever I scrub it. If that makes sense? Is there something that I'm doing wrong? The width of the SeekBar is 728px.
resources for building (or skinning) your own video player aren't nearly as easy to find as I thought they should be, and these tutorials are fantastic. The only things missing, that how to achieve, are (a) the video counting in 0:00 as it plays, and also being able to list the duration - so display something like: 0:00 / 5:47
View 13 RepliesI have a controller that works well (play, pause, restart, and a scrubbing playhead), now I just need to display the time remaining vs. the total time of an external swf, preferably in MM:SS format (Ex: 02:36/03:51). I'm getting better with my ActionScripting all the time, but the more I learn, the more I realize just how little I actually know. Anyways, my files are setup as follows: HTML w/ JavaScript that hides the main swf (giving it time to load)Main swf revealed when button is clicked on HTML pageExternal swf pulled into an empty MC (mcContent)Instance of controller in the main swf targets mcContentDynamic text field labelled "txtTimer" is inside of controller waiting for the right script to display time remaining/total timeSo, anybody know where I could find some script to get this final touch added to my project? Either time elapsed or time remaining would be cool. I've gotten a lot of really good help/tips here in the past and am hoping to keep that going.
