Flash :: Smoothly Playback A FLV At Different Speeds?
Dec 21, 2010
I will need to display the frames of an FLV at different rates.
Here are some examples:
the user will 'scrub' through the flv frames(front/back) the flv will need to play at half the speed on a user interaction.
Currently I'm using LoaderMax and it's VideoLoader object to load and play FLV files. I've tried using the playProgress property, but only the keyframes of the FLV are displayed. I got the same result with the basic setup(using the NetStream class)
As a workaround, I playback the FLV once, and cache BitmapData instances in which I draw/cache each frame of the video. After this is done, I use the BitmapData Vector to update a Bitmap on stage. Scrubbing/changing speed works fine with this method, but still the user needs to see(wait for) the sequence once, while it gets cached, which I don't like.

I know as of 3.5.3 you're supposed to be able to use the Smart Seek functionality to do trick modes like 1/2x, 2x, etc.ow is this actually done?I understand the new seeking/stepping, just not how to playback at a different rate.

I am pretty new to flash and only know basics of animating in it and a bit of action scripting. I made a movie and used action script [code]...
to create pauses in middle of movie to conserve on frames and file size. I used this script for other banners and never had problems. I have several pauses in the movie and the first few pauses work fine but then when the movie loops it ignores the action script and speeds up the play back. What I am doing wrong see the included FLA file.[url]...

I've got a website w/ a few different pages (each it's own swf file). When buttons are pressed the first time things seem good. But if you return to a button that's already loaded once, the movie clip file that has the navigation (and is the background), loads either too slow or too quick for the other swf files and it gets stuck in random spots. It's hard to explain, but something is not working properly.

why these two movieclips are moving at different speeds? I would like them to be moving at the same speed (while increasing xspeed every second).
actionscript 2, flash mx.
Code:
var xspeed = 1;
countDown = function () {

I've been testing my website's intro banner on a few different computers.
On my computer, in Safari and Firefox, it plays at the same speed as when I play it locally.
It runs fine on all machines I checked at work, but one. On my slowish laptop, ran slowly there too.
It's a pretty small file 87kb. Is it a cpu issue and not being able to process multiple animations at the same time?
Is there a way to remedy that or just don't worry about it? Is there some sort of standard when it comes to cpu/swf testing?
My concerned file is the middle banner at [URL]

I'm building a game with two main objects on screen.
1) An animated MovieClip with 144 frames inside.
2) A ball that will be moving around the screen.
I've animated both objects with two different timers. One has a delay of 0.0333 seconds (30 fps) and the other has a speed of 0.0222.
Now there is something I do not understand. If both objects start moving/animating at the same time... When my ball reaches certain point on the stage, I check the currentframe property of the other animated moviclip but it's never on the same frame at that point. It varies...
If they are both at a constant speed, even though they are different speeds, why would the animated movieclip be on a different frame each time? It varies a few frames each time I output it to check.[code]...

How can I have an MC play at different speeds upon a button click. For example, I want button one to play the MC "cars" at one speed, and button two to play the same MC (cars) at another speed?

I've got a problem in actionscript3 with moving large DisplayObject-s. When the size of the DisplayObject is quite large (more than screen size) the movement loses smoothness and it looks like the object starts jumping forward and backward, which overall looks very unpleasant. Does anybody know the way to fix that? I am trying to make a sort of a race game, where I need to move the background sprite to make the illusion of movement.

I recently posted my first online Flash photo gallery. It flows perfectly when viewing on my desktop using a Flash Player, however, when viewed online it can look "jerky" and stutter in spots. This doesn't happen every time. One friend said it flows smoothly and another noticed that it stutters. On my own broadband connection it does both. One day it flows smoothly and another time it stutters and jerks.Any suggestions on how to ensure smooth animations? The frames per second on the .fla files are set at 18. Would bumping it up to 24 fps help? But that would increase file size, yes? Maybe there's not much I can do and I'm at the mercy of download speeds and web traffic?
Here's a link to the gallery. [URL]..

I have created a galley with dynamically loaded multiple swf files. Half of them contain animations running at 60fps. The other half are flash movies at 30fps. If I select the speed of my gallery file to be 30fps animations play slow. If speed of gallery file is 60fps flash movies play too fast. How can I override the speed of the individual .swf's so they all play evenly.
some AS3 script for each individual movie? i.e. animation speed (individual file) speed: 1/2?..

I'm trying to create the effect on the dreamers site [URL] during the main intro where all the kids are sitting in the theatre and the one kid is smoking. Anyone know how to create this effect that has different images move at varying speeds based on the mouse location to show depth.

I am making an animation that tweens two different objects at different speeds dependent on the position of the mouse. This is working fine, however, when the user takes the cursor outside the flash box and enters the frame it jumps to that position.
I have created a tween for this first instance however, if the user continues to move there cursor before this tween has finished it continues to jump.
Here is the code I have written
Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, CheckDirection);
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

Working on a 'video heavy' Flash site that has an intro video. While the intro video is playing, assets(images,flv files) should be loaded in the background. The problem is that, while the assets are loading, the intro video play gets jittery. What can I do to make the video playing smoothly while still loading assets? It might be the single threaded nature of actionscript, not sure. After using @Demian Brecht suggested method, I noticed that the culprit might be Memory allocation. As the FLVs load the memory usage goes up by ~266MB and while the videos are written to memory, the framerate drops to 1FPS.

I am currently making for fun a racing game. When it started to get in shape, I decided to try it in a browser.
Now, when using CTRL+Enter or running the swf file, it was all working really smoothly. But when I ran it through a browser (when publishing, I generated html file and opened it in FireFox) it was extremely sloppy.
My first thought is that there are too many calculations which resulted in low fps. I downloaded and put a script to measure the fps. In both, IDE and browser, the movie was played back with max fps of 24. When I increased it to 50 it was still reaching max fps in both, yet in browser movie was still really sloppy (though it was a little bit better than with max fps being 24). When raised to 100, playback in browser was capped at 60fps on different computers so I guess it's a flash player cap. Movie was still not smooth at all.

I am doing an animation with a movie clip that needs to follow the mouse on the Y axis only smoothly and needs to stay inside a fixed dimension. (e.g. the mc could moves 200px left or 200px right maximum) And I want it to stop smoothly too when it reach the limits.

I am developing a ipad game using flash CS5. When I run it in flash or web browser, it run quite smoothly but when I published it into ipa file and run it on my own ipad, it became very very slow. Since my game has many stages and characters, the amount of symbols may up to more than 50. That makes the flash file more than 100mb (but the ipa is only 11mb) All of the symbols are exported in frame 1.
1)if I used preloader and exports the symbols in frame 2, will my game run more smoothly? is one preloader when the game is loaded enough? or it is need for every game scenes?
2)Is there any other technique that a big game developed in Flash has to follow in order can be run in low configurations devices?
3)Why many other big game can run so smoothly although it contains a lot more characters and background than mine?

Right I have a movieclip called Menu1 and I currently have a function that when called moves that movie clip to a set of co-ordinates. The function is run on a onEnterFrame. The codes is as follows
Code:
function moveMenu(xValue:Number, yValue:Number){
if (this.Menu1._x> xValue) {
[Code].....
So at the moment, the values (x and y) are passed to the function and it moves to that location 45px per frame and when it is within 45px of the target it jumps to the exact point.
1) I want the movieclip to accelerate and deaccelerate as it moves.
2) At the moment it doesn't take the direct route it only goes up down left right and at a 45 degree diagonal. I want it to go to the point in a straight line.

I have 2 problems. I need to make a blur transition system where I can blur objects in and out smoothly. I'm thinking I could base it on timers and certain events/variables/values. Don't know if the blur class goes with the transition class or not. My 2nd problem I may make another thread. How would I influence the 3D angle of an object via actionscipt? I'd like to do a cool viewpoint/angle effect as you move your mouse across the screen.

take a peek at youtube main pageWhat's your thoughts on the "Lost" TV show preview there. It's huge, it has sound, nonetheless it runs smoothly and almost instantaneously. And the quality is greatIt is interactive therefore it's kind of like a tiny mini website within the website, swf with video in it, right?now how do you get video of this quality to run this smoothly as far as AS goes? Looking in the Safari Activity window I don't even see things downloading (of considerable kilobyte size that is)
