Make "play" Button For Embedded FLV Disappear When Movie Starts Playing?

Oct 16, 2009

I can't believe how impossible it has been to find info about this. I'm sort of a beginner with actionscript, but this shouldn't be as hard as I'm finding it to be.
 
I'm using AS2. I have an ordinary FLV video playing with one of the skins that comes with the Flash software (CS3). That all works perfectly fine. What I need to do, however, is add a large "PLAY" button over top of the movie. I have made that work also. But, I need the button to disappear when the movie starts playing, because it is obviously in the way and making it hard to view the video.
 
Some forums suggested making that button disappear when it is clicked. That would be fine, except that the video player skin also has a play button, and if someone clicks that button instead of my new large button, I still need the large button to disappear.
 
So what I'm trying to figure out how to do is something like:   if the FLV is playing, make this object (the button) disappear or become invisible. This can't be that difficult!

Actionscript 3 :: Flash : Loading Bar Not Finished When Movie Starts Playing?

Mar 24, 2010

I'm using the same code I always use for preloading another swf but it's not working this time. The problem this time is that when the loading bar gets to 16% every time you can hear the movie I'm loading playing in the background. I can just add a stop to the first frame of the movie I'm loading ("trial_1.swf") but how do I tell it to go to the second frame once it has loaded?

Here's my code:

var myrequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest ("trial_1.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Load Jpegs Completely Before The Movie Starts Playing?

Jun 9, 2003

Basically my code at the beginning of the movie queries the server for the file names of jpeg files that are to be loaded into sequential frames. The reason is that the user can enter file names into a database and the application plays them back without the user having to do any flash programming. Currently, my code is using a preloader in each frame along with some additional code to center the picture etc.

This is fine *but* I need all of the jpegs to load before the movie starts, not when the play head gets to each frame. I can't have any delay from one frame to the next. Delay in the beginning of the movie is ok. Can anyone help me with a method to dynamically load these jpegs completely before the movie starts playing?...once loaded they must be available for any frame to call immediately.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Button Play A Movie?

Jun 27, 2007

Need the action script that makes a button (when rolled over) play a movie. I have a stop action in the first frame of the movie and know to point the action FROM the button to the second frame, but I need the rest of the script.

Imagine four buttons next to each other, each, when rolled over, make text movies fade in and out when user rolls off the buttons. Each text movie would play in the same spot on the page.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Publish Preview The Play Button With Load For A Split Second And Then Disappear?

Aug 21, 2010

I've been working on a AS3 script to control my FLVplayback component.  I'm very close to making this work.  Let me describe what I want to happen.On my homepage I have a DIV container where my video will be located. I want a still image of the video to load with a play button over it.Upon mouse over I want the button to change colors, upon mouse click I want the video to play.I have a .FLA project I'm working.  I've got a FLVplayback component, sourced to my .flv.  I've created a button and it works.  When you click it the video plays.I have 3 layers.

actions (this is the top layer)

buttons (has a button and progress bar)

assets (only the FLVplayer)
 
The following AS3 is set to frame1 in the actions layer.
 
I'm using FlashCS4, AS3 and DreamweaverCS4
 
Here is the weird issue.
 
#1.  While working in Flash.If I do a publish preview the play button with load for a split second and then disappear to be replaced by the still image.If you click on the center of the still image where the play button SHOULD be, the video will play.
 
#2.If I view this online.The play buttons NEVER disappear, however the still image NEVER loads.
 
import fl.video.*;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.Event;[code]............

Make An Object Pop Up Then Disappear When Clicking A Button In It?

Feb 15, 2012

So, here is what I'm trying to do. I have a page full of characters for a project I'm working on now, and I want to add some interactivity to the page by making each of the characters clickable and having a description of the character pop up that you can then close. I have included 3 images of what I'd ideally like tohappen.Picture 1: The page in just a normal state, nothing happening.Picture 2: On rollover, I would like the character to pop out and enlarge.I know how to make it enlarge on rollover, but I don't understand how you would make it come to the front above other layers. with understanding how to do.

Picture 3: I want a description like this to pop up when you click on the character. I have a layer at 50% opacity to fade the background out as well. I need to know how to:1. Make this image show up when you click on the respective character.2. Make this image disappear when you click on the red X button at the top right
