Problem With Gotoandlearn Mp3 Player

Problem With Gotoandlearn Mp3 Player
Hi
I downloaded the mp3 player from gotoandlearn.com and the first part is workin correct, but when I add the controll buttons it stops playing the songs continously. It only play the first song and then stops. Any one having the same problem, or knows a way to fix it?
thnx..
here's the code by the way:

// Setup sound object
var s:Sound = new Sound();
s.onSoundComplete = playSong;
s.setVolume(75);

// Array of songs
var sa:Array = new Array();

// Currently playing song
var cps:Number = -1;

// Position of music
var pos:Number;

// Load the songs XML
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.onLoad = function()
{
var nodes:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(var i=0;i<nodes.length;i++)
{
sa.push(nodes.attributes.url);
}
playSong();
}

xml.load("songs.xml");

// Play the MP3 File
function playSong():Void
{
s = new Sound();
if(cps == sa.length - 1)
{
cps = 0;
s.loadSound(sa[cps], true);
}
else
{
s.loadSound(sa[++cps], true);
}
playPause.gotoAndStop("pause");
}

// Pauses the music
function pauseIt():Void
{
pos = s.position;
s.stop();
}

// Pauses the music
function unPauseIt():Void
{
s.start(pos/1000);
}

// Music Controls

// Play/Pause Toggle
playPause.onRollOver = function()
{
if(this._currentframe == 1) this.gotoAndStop("pauseOver");
else this.gotoAndStop("playOver");
}

playPause.onRollOut = playPause.onReleaseOutside = function()
{
if(this._currentframe == 10) this.gotoAndStop("pause");
else this.gotoAndStop("play");
}

playPause.onRelease = function()
{
if(this._currentframe == 10)
{
this.gotoAndStop("playOver");
this._parent.pauseIt();
}
else
{
this.gotoAndStop("pauseOver");
this._parent.unPauseIt();
}
}

// Next Button
next.onRollOver = function()
{
this.gotoAndStop("nextOver");
}

next.onRollOut = next.onReleaseOutside = function()
{
this.gotoAndStop("next");
}

next.onRelease = function()
{
this._parent.playSong();
}


And in the xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<songs>
<song url="chompSamba.mp3" />
<song url="cureForTheItch.mp3" />
<song url="sheLooksToMe.mp3" />
<song url="soWasRed.mp3" />
<song url="thisIsWar.mp3" />
</songs>

Gotoandlearn Mp3 Player Not Functioning
I successfully built the mp3 player from the Gotoandlearn.com tutorials. It works perfectly in a .swf player and when it's compiled in Flash, but the moment I try to play it in a browser... it doesn't connect. The textfield says undefined.
Being unknowledgeable of Flash, I have no idea why it can't connect to the files when it's being viewed from a browser.

Any ideas? Need to see the files? http://clay.bellmor.com/testsite/player

Also! Opening the player.swf file in Safari and FF doesn't work, but opening the player folder and then clicking on the .swf (so it loads the .swf by itself) works properly...

I'm 'guessing' there's something wrong with the class setting, maybe it doesn't know where to look...

Any help would be great!

[CS3] A Small Problem With The Mp3-player From Gotoandlearn
Hey guys!

Im posting because i have a (hopefully) simple problem! Ive been trying to use the mp3 player i created from the tutorial over at
gotoandlearn (http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=39) as a tracklist player.
The absolute path of the a track in the list is _root.topmain.main.media.track1 and the mp3 player is in _root.topmain

So i did a small modifiation and added:

_root.topmain.main.media.track1.onRelease = function()
{
cps = 0; // song index
this._parent.playSong();
}

The original "next song" button looks like this:

next.onRelease = function()
{
this._parent.playSong();
}

Somehow it doesnt work! Flash tracks it as a clickable symbol but when i click it nothing happens.
It works if i put the button in the same level in the movieclip as the mp3 player.
Its been driving me nuts for days and I've tried to write the line in diffrent ways but i haven't got it to work yet.

Thanks in advance and I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out!

Trying To Get GotoAndLearn's Vid Player Tutrl To Work In AS3
Hello,

I'm trying to put together a Remembrance Sunday package, but I'm struggling to iron out some problems in the code, and wonder if someone can give me some pointers.

The URL for my package can be found below
http://i.thisis.co.uk/274136/binaries/Remembrance9.fla

Essentially, I'm trying to recreate something I've seen on the MediaStorm website http://mediastorm.org/0024.htm a scrolling banner of images, each of which acts like a button to click through to a video player that I've managed to find.

Anyway, the way I've tried to do it is to create a series of nested movieclips; the first is a two-layered movieclip in the library (which I've called fence) containing all of the pictures as profiles on one layer, and then a second layer on which I've laid a button overlay.

I've then set up event handlers for the various overlays which display rollovers and rolloffs to push the timeline to the video playing section.

You will see that the first section works, to a point, but because of the nested videoclips of fence and doublefence that there are times when the buttons don't work. Also the buttons are opaque black when the package is run - which is not as I planned it.

There are more problems in the second piece of code:

The second piece of code is taken from the video player tutorial on http://www.gotoandlearnforum.com which although it works when the stop() function is taken off the first frame of actionscript, it throws out an error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Remembrance9_fla::MainTimeline/mouseOutkenBettany()

I'm not sure what this means or how to fix it, can anyone help?


Code:

stop();
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();//this establishes a connection to the internet
nc.connect(null);//this tells Flash that this isn't a Flash Communication Server project

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);



theVideo.attachNetStream(ns);

ns.play("berrisford.flv");


rewindButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
rewindBtn);


function rewindBtn(event:MouseEvent):void
        {
            ns.seek(0);
        }

playButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, playBtn);

function playBtn(event:MouseEvent):void
        {
            ns.pause();
        }





var videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus, 100);
var amountLoaded:Number;
var duration:Number;

ns["onMetaData"] = function (obj) {
   duration = obj.duration;
};

function videoStatus() {
   amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded/ns.bytesTotal;
   loader.loadbar._width = amountLoaded*211.9;
   //211.9 px is the width of the loaderbar
   loader.scrub._x = ns.time/duration*211.9;
}


var scrubInterval;

loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
   clearInterval(videoInterval);
   scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit, 10);
   this.startDrag(false,1.8,this._y,209.8,this._y);
};

addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
scrubVid);

function scrubVid (event:MouseEvent):void
{
   
}








loader.scrub.onRelease = loader.scrub.onReleaseOutside=function () {
   clearInterval(scrubInterval);
   videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus, 100);
   this.stopDrag();
};




function scrubit() {
   ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/211.9)*duration));
}


Cheers,

Mp3 Player Questions (based On GotoAndLearn Tutorial)
Good-day men,

first of all, compliments for your tutorials.. they are great!

I have some "stupid" questions, if you wanna help me:

- how can I start the player from the position "pause" (so without playing a song when I open the flash) (and so with the button in position "play")

- I would like to add the button "previous track".. what code I need to create into the "mp3player.as"? (I think the button is the same of next but with "negative image" and with different names..)

- for a button like "stop" what I have to do? (a button with a simple action like: stop(); or stopAllSounds(); ?) (I've tried but without success...)

thanks to peolple will help me!

Custom Video Player By GotoAndLearn Tutorial - Problems
Hey guys,

first: sorry for my bad english knowledge, hope you are able to understand me

Okay, i did the Video Basic Tutorials and the XML Playlist, because this was a chance to insert more than one videos. Altouhgh, i customized the skin of the Videoplayer.

When i'm finished, the videoplayer shoud look like this:


Okay, so i took the functions shown in the tutorial. So i've got an XML-Playlist, play/pause button, replay button, mute button.

But as you see in the screenshot there should be some more

First of all i want to stop the "Autoplay-system" and "Autoreplay-System". I want to show the preview-picture and if i klick on "play" i want the TV to start. If one video is finished, there should be the "screenshot" again.

Screenshots -> Because i want to use the player with a lot of movies, i want to write down screenshots next to the videourl (XML Datei), something like this
Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<videos>
<video url="videos/rundengewinner08.flv" desc="Giga Homepage Award Runde 8" thumb="preview.jpg" />
</videos>

Than there are some "Arrowkeys" like this », so i want to switch between the screenshots to choose your video. Because i want this as "navigation", i don't need the Playlist next to the player (if i delete the layer i cannot use the player anymore).

Third: I would love the "minutes"-display (shown on the screenshot).

As faar as good... my problem is: I've got no knowledge about Flash/Actionscripts, so please explain "step by step". If there is someone who says "thats easy" i would give him the files (if it is easilier)

You can download the files from the tutorial at this link

I just eddited the Layout, nothing by the code


Thanks,

mr92

Can't Load Movies On Gotoandlearn.com
My computer loads most of the movies on www.gotoandlearn.com only for something like 20%, so I can't view the other 80%.
The only movies that I can view are these tutorials:
- all the video basics tutorials
- the 3d logo tutorial
- the running man tutorial
- video player interface
- XML video playlist
- PHP, MySQL and Flash

Does anyone has any idea why I can't view the tutorials and how I could solve that problem?

[CS3] [AS2] 3D XML Carousel Using GotoAndLearn Tutorial
I am slowly building up a small carousel based on the gotoandLearn videos, but I've reached a point that I'm stumped. This is the tutorial itself:

http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=33

This is my code so far, first is the AS2, second XML:


Code:
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 320;
var radiusY:Number = 90;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width/2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height/3.2;
var speed:Number = 0.03;
var home:MovieClip = this;

var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;

xml.onLoad = function()
{
var nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;
numOfItems = nodes.length;
for(var i=0;i<numOfItems;i++)
{
var t = home.attachMovie("icon","icon"+i,i+1);
t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);
t.onEnterFrame = mover;
t.icon.inner.loadMovie(nodes[i].attributes.images);

}
}

xml.load("icon.xml");

function mover()
{
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s:Number = this._y / (centerY+radiusY);
this._xscale = this._yscale = s * 100;
this.angle += this._parent.speed;
}

this.onMouseMove = function()
{
speed = (this._xmouse-centerX)/9500;
}

Code:
<icons>

<icon images="icon1.png" tooltip = "Knowledge"/>

<icon images="icon2.png" tooltip = "Logic"/>

<icon images="icon3.png" tooltip = "Focus"/>

<icon images="icon4.png" tooltip = "Speed"/>

</icons>
It so far seems to be recognizing the XML file, when it loads there are four rotating "inner" objects... however, the actual .png files are not loading into place like they should. I've followed the tutorial near-exactly, leaving out a few things such as the reflection effect and tooltip which will not be used in my own final version. The outer movie is named "item" with an instance name of "icon", while the inner movieclip is named "inner" with an instance name of "inner" What is going on?

Gotoandlearn Files Problem
Hi

I have downloaded the files used for gotoandlearn at flash blog site.
It seems to be a older version

Have tried to get it to work, but it wont.

Have tried this:
1: have changed:
//x.load("videos.xml");
x.load("videos.xml?cachebuster=" + new Date().getTime());
to
x.load("videos.xml");
//x.load("videos.xml?cachebuster=" + new Date().getTime());

2: Have tried to put flv files in a folder called flv (like at this site)

3: Have tried to put files i a file folder

4: Have tried to add <?xml version="1.0" ?> to the xml file

Nothing have worked.

See the result here:
http://www.techshop.dk/stream/player.swf

It seems like it found out that there are 2 videos in XML file. But it cant show or play them

Please help me

Question About Carousel Tutorial On GotoAndLearn
there is a three part series tutorial on building a sleek carousel withdrawing icons from xml file (Creating 3D Carousels III - http://www.gotoandlearn.com/download.php )

If you are familiar with this, the tutorial only covers showing text information along with the picture icon. What would be very cool is to have is show a movie clip when you clicked on an icon. Then is would be a full flash site, and a really cool one.

Here I am attaching the full action script that I got from the tutorial, so if you have an idea how to show a movie clip on clicking an icon, it would be great. I am a newbie to actionscript, so any help would be appreciated.


Code:

The Missing GotoAndLearn.com Mp3player Code
Hello there,

I was wondering if anyone here happens to have the supplementry .zip file found on gotoAndLearn.com, that accompanied the last Mp3player tutorial before the site was pulled and the content rendered unavailable.

its a bit of a long shot, but i'd thought i'd ask. I just can't find it anywhere on the web, not even http://theflashblog.com/ .

thanks Cam

Object Oriented ScrollBar At Gotoandlearn
I've been a total fan of http://www.gotoandlearn.com for a long time now. I learned about it in the first place from these forums here, quite some time ago, too. Now that Lee Brimelow is getting into Actionscript 3.0, the site just keeps getting better. Yesterday I watched the two topmost tutorials there (the Object Oriented ScrollBar ones); I even watched the second one twice. I was kind of awestruck. The guy is a genius, and he's a great teacher. It was an eye-opener about OOP for me (not that I've "arrived" yet).

So here's the deal: I have been getting into programming with classes more and more, but I don't have any OOP background or training, except for self-teaching. So you can know how to make classes and packages and how all that works, but then the question becomes what kind of classes of objects should you make so that they are reusable and work together well. Also, what kind of division of labor should you use, like, what should ideally be the responsibilities of each class.

These two video tutorials seem like they've filled a gap in my knowledge and skill set. For one thing, they explain how to create a custom event class and make the scroll bar class use it to broadcast the position of the thumb so that outside code can use it. Now I understand better the role of the event object, even how the existing flash classes implement it.

I just thought I'd pass this along. This is sure to help someone, somebody needs this...

Gotoandlearn Basics Of Papervision3D Tutorial
Hi,

I apologize in advanced if this is in the wrong forum or if this has already been posted. I tried searching but couldn't find anything relevant to my problem.

I'm trying to complete the Basics of Papervision3D tutorial here and I'm running into a compiling problem. I'm fairly new to Flash so I'm not sure if this is just a really stupid error that I'm overlooking or not.

The error is :

InteractiveSceneManager.as, Line 38 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: XrayLog.

I'm pretty sure I've set up my class path right, being C:usersmeDesktopActionscript. Within there is com, livePreview, et al.

Here's my actionscript code just in case.

Code:

import org.papervision3d.cameras.*;
import org.papervision3d.objects.*;
import org.papervision3d.materials.*;

var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
container.x = stage.stageWidth * 0.5;
container.y = stage.stageHeight * 0.5;
addChild(container);

var scene:Scene3D = new Scene3D(container);
var camera:Camera3D = new Camera3D();
camera.zoom = 5;

var bam:BitmapAssetMaterial = new BitmapAssetMaterial("FlashIcon");
bam.oneSide = false;
bam.smooth = true;

for(var i:uint=0; i<50; i++)
{
   var p:Plane = new Plane(bam, 90, 90, 2, 2);
   scene.addChild(p);
   p.x = Math.random() * 1000 - 500;
   p.y = Math.random() * 1000 - 500;
   p.z = Math.random() * 1000 - 500;
   p.rotationY = Math.random() * 360;

GotoandLearn.com Source Code Question....
I have downloaded the source code for the FLA of this site...and by the way THANKS...what a great starting point to jump off into a cool world of design from...

But here is my quick question....

I have a series of flvs to play in a certain order....

I would like for the player, when finished to play the next one in the sequence...

I found all the code to do this...

but it looked like it wanted to repeat the same one...


I am loading everything from an xml file....in fact four different XML files load according to a pushed button...

So say I pushed button 1...got xml1 to load and clicked the first list item that loaded...that video plays and I want it to play the second on and so on...

but if the person clicks the third item on the list, i want it to play the fourth from there...


So if I do series of ++ codes to get it to work, then the user clicks around it could scary...

I could hard code a variable number that each of the 30 flvs are...

like video1 = 1
video 2 = 2 and so on...

then load that variable into a container variable to hold it...

and then just add one to that number I guess...

Basically, my question is

within the gotoandlearn code....what is the easiest way to assign the next video to be played?

Changing The Gotoandlearn Interface To A Swf Viewer
Hi I'm experimenting with changing the interface for the gotoandlearn.com site into a SWF movie viewer rather than FLV - the zip file has been posted here in the past - although today I did have to decompile it in order to view the file. Not trying to steal the work - but as Lee had it posted at one time I figured it was ok to use it as the basis for some experimentation.

As written the .fla requires FLV files in order to populate the movie viewer - and SWFs won't play as it utilizes the Video class, etc.

Anybody have any idea how to switch out the movie box for a swf loader instead - keeping the XML reading intact? The relevant code appears to be here:

function playtime(who)
{
ns.play(who + ".flv");
loadInt = setInterval(loadFunction, 50);
buffclip._visible = true;
} // End of the function
function loadFunction()
{
var _loc1 = ns.bytesLoaded / ns.bytesTotal;
if (_loc1 < 1)
{
pl._x = ld._x + ld._width - 20;
pl.perload.text = Math.round(_loc1 * 100) + "%";
pl._visible = true;
ld._width = swidth * _loc1;
}
else
{
pl._visible = false;
ld._width = swidth;
clearInterval(loadInt);
} // end else if
} // End of the function
function videoUpdate()
{
var _loc1 = ns.time / dur;
pr._x = -2.585000E+002 + swidth * _loc1;
} // End of the function
function rewind()
{
ns.seek(ns.time - 30);
if (ns.time == 0)
{
clearInterval(rewInt);
ns.pause(false);
} // end if
} // End of the function
function ff()
{
if (ns.time / dur < 9.500000E-001)
{
ns.seek(ns.time + 1);
}
else
{
clearInterval(ffInt);
} // end else if

Font In The ActionScript Editor At GotoAndLearn
What is the font Lee is using in the ActionScript editor, for example in this video: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=64 ?

I don't know if it is a default font on OSX since I'm using Windows. The font is clearly a monospaced one, and very good looking. I found some similar ones, but not the exact match (for example "i" wasn't matching).

GotoAndLearn Preloader Tutorial Question
Can anyone help me fingure out something that's probablly really easy to explain? I did Lee's preloader tut. and the only change I made was instead of the grey bar moving it's width along with the bytes loaded I created a mask over some text...making the mask move to it's maximum width (so it appears that the text is slowly changing color from right to left).

When I take the mask off and just move the regular box it works! Can I not apply the code provided in the tutorial to a mask? Thanks![/i]

Gotoandlearn Carousel / Limit Reaction Area
hello
i'm tweaking the well known carousel from gotoandlearn v3 flash 8/as2 as a navigation.loading external mc's onto stage.
i searched the forum but couldn't find a post on my problem:

is there a way to restrict the carousel movement e.g. when the cursor moves a certain distance away from the carousel ?
it's slightly disturbing when you load something onto stage and the carousel keeps moving

thx for reading

[F8] 2 Flash Objects - Audio Player Passes Pause To Video Player
I have 2 flash objects on my html page.

One is a video player and the other is an audio player.

The video player starts playing by default.

I'd like to somehow set this up so that if someone clicks on the audio player, it automatically pauses the video player.

Please note that these are 2 SEPARATE FLASH OBJECTS on my HTML website. I'm not developing an all Flash driven website.

The audio player was added as an afterthought, originally there was only going to be a video player on the page.

How can I send a pause command from the Audio Player to the Video Player?

FOO

How Do I *completely* Uninstall Flash Player And Then Install The *full* Player?
I lost the ability to to hear the audio on YouTube videos and other (e.g., news feed sites) videos served via Flash Player. Several people who encountered this problem claim to have solved it by reinstalling Flash Player. This has not helped me, though the Adobe sites I download from all serve up either the Flash Player *plugin* or the ActiveX player (I prefer Firefox to IE).

The uninstallers I've downloaded from Adobe run in a few seconds, and I suspect are not doing a complete uninstall. If I search my registry for "Flash" or "Macromed" I find many, many entries. Is there a special utility that will do a complete cleanout of Flash registry items and files?

Is there a site where I can download the *full* player, not just the plugin?

One point of information about my problem, however, that makes me think it is not a problem with the Flash Player itself is that I've also lost all Windows sounds (which I find mostly annoying, so I don't mind that), and there's no Windows sound icon in the system tray.

I *am* able to play (and hear) mp3 and wma files played directly off my hard drive. So I think the sound card and audio device drivers (mine is SoundMAX Digital Audio) are fine.

I've gone through the various "solutions" that fixed this for others--codecs replacements, cookie clearing, regisry repair utilities, I even reinstalled the audio driver from the Gateway disk.

I'm stumped and am almost tempted to buy an external (USB) sound card and try directing Flash to it.

But I'm sure there's another solution.

Oh, this is XP SP3 (upgraded to SP3 *after* the problem manifested).

Windows Media Player Or Real Player Through Flash
Not sure if this can be answered all that easily, but does anyone know of a way for streaming video to be displayed through a flash movie. My guess is that it has something to do with java script and Active X. If anyone know any possible directions I can go with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks - J

FLash Cd Player .cda Files Launching Media Player?
So I need a solution to this problem. I dont know if it can be solved in flash but any help would be great. I'm making an Enhanced cd. If you pop it in you cd rom it autolaunches a flash movie. There are two options one to goto the website contained on the cd the second to listen to the audio files. Is there a way to launch a media player or open the .cda files with flash so when you click the listen button it starts the cd? help. It needs to play in a cd player otherwise this owuldn't be a problem.

[CS3] Trying To Make 2 Player Tetris Game With 1 Player Code
So I picked up a Tetris tutorial from Webdesign.org made by Tutorialscene.org.

Instead of just copy and pasting the code I went through every line in the tutorial typing it in manually. So I have a kind of decent idea of what's going on in the code but I'm no expert by any means.

I know that for two games I'd have to have seperate key inputs which I've figured out how to do. Up, Down, Left, Right for player 1 and W, S, A, D for player 2. Down however does not work and it's moving pieces around on the 1st player screen.

Basically to make it as easy to get what I'm trying to do across I'm posting the 2 swf's and the fla below.

This is the one player version:
http://www.cycloneinjapan.com/upload...1/tetris-1.swf

Works fine.

This is the broken 2 player

http://www.cycloneinjapan.com/upload...r%20broken.swf

And here is the fla.

http://www.cycloneinjapan.com/upload...tetris%202.fla

If anyone can give me some pointers or help me out it'd be greatly appreciated.

Site Working Under Player 9.0.47 Or Later, But Not Older Player 9 Versions
Hi all,

I've discovered that all my as3 websites are fine with flash player 9.0.47.0 or later but not older sub versions of player 9. The problem seems to be located after the preloading of the site but I can't figure what is happening exactly.

I've checked my code and I don't do anything special. I load the Root, than some XML, and then I jump to the third frame and init the site. There are some movieclips on frame 2 for preloading purpose.

I would really like to understand what's the difference between those flash player versions that causes my website to stop after the loading, in all versions between and including 9.0.16.0 -> 9.0.45.0.

Here are two of those problematic websites :
www.dankastudio.fr
www.robinsonlesbains.com
www.asylum.fr

Thanks a lot,
Greg

XSPF PLayer, Webjay.org, Flash Player Woes.... What Do You See?
Hi All,

I'm working on making a jukebox, which, to me works in Firefox on Mac, and IE 6 in Windows.... can you guys check it in your browsers and let me know what you see, and if it works? My client says that it isn't working, but I've tried it in all browsers and to me, it seems to work.

Here's the URLs that have the jukebox code on it:
http://donohoemusic.com/index.php?page=projects

http://donohoemusic.com/index.php?pa...-book-of-songs

I'm not really sure what's going on, whether or not he needs to update his flash player, run another browser or what...
To create the jukebox, I logged into Webjay.org, and made the list, hard coding where each MP3 was on the server, as well as the images. then I outputted the code and pasted it into my cms made simple pages.

Could any of those elements be conflicting? For now, I just want to see if it's working for everyone else.

Thanks for the help!
God Bless!
Josh

PS. I'm using Webjay.org, XSPF player and CMS made simple and I'm on Mac/firefox, win/IE 6

Pop Up Audio Player Silencing Page Player
I recently added a pop up player to my site, which pops up the audio player in a new window if you care to listen while navigating other pages (or want to listen without having the songs start over each time you change a page, because i'm working primarily html, and only using a flash player, so each time you load a new page it starts over). What i'm wondering is if there is some kind of global function that will have the media player on the page check if the pop up player is playing, and if it is, then not to start the audio. I'm not sure if that makes sense or not, but basically i want one audio player to be playing at a time, so you don't have songs clashing against each other.

Updating File From Player 6 To Player 7...can't Get It Working Right
I need to migrate this file from FP6 to FP7 and i thought it would be as easy as just declaring the variables and making some changes here and there, but apparently not. I also need to find a way to delete an onEnterFrame when mouse is not moving, but then stat it back up again, when the mouse starts moving.( I figure it will help cut down on processor load ). Anyway, attached is the file i need some help with. Any help/suggestions etc woud be appreciated.

Oh...Also... if anyone can think of way to make the same effect work on buttons/mc's within external clips loaded into a container, that would be much appreciated as well... everything i have tried has been unsuccessful..

thanks in advance

Publish To Player 6, Will Not Play On Player 8, News To Me
In my years of using flash, and publishing movies for 'different players' I just realized that a movie published for Flash Player 6, will not work if you only have Flash Player 8 installed!! This is not what I was to believe about F8.
Is this really right? I only realized this because I completely cleaned out my computer of all kinds of 'temp' this and that, registry entries, and also clearing nearly everything to do with active x and shockwave components.
So, I really thought that a movie published for Player 6 would play on any computer that had Player 8 installed. NOT THE CASE !

Can anyone backup this statement?

Video Player Component Using Flash Player 6
I'm streaming video using Flash Player 6. The problem I am having is that the video will only play at a super small size, something like 180 x 60 (that's a guess). Is there a way to play the video at the 320 width that I redered it as?
I'm using Flash Player 6 because some code that came with my purchased Flash Template does not work unless it's published to Flash Plaey 6.
Thanks in advance!

Flash Player Vs Windows Media Player
Hi,
I am trying to decide between Flash and Windows Media to stream video content form a web server. I would like to go with Flash but do not want to do so at the expense of reduced video quality. My questions are:

1> Will Flash have an ability to show videos on Full Screen mode? If so, when should we expect that to happen?
2> Does Flash support variable bit rate encoding? If not, when do you think it would? How does Flash encoding compare with Windows Media encoding?
3> Besides the player being available on most browsers, does Flash have any other advantage over Windows Media Player?

Preloader, Worked In Player 6, Broken In Player 8
Hi guys!

I started with a .fla that was in version 6 and used this actionscript. Later on a made some changes that required player 8. And offcourse my preloader went shot down in flames

Could anyone please see what could possibly be wrong?

ActionScript Code:
lBytes = _root.getBytesLoaded();
tBytes = _root.getBytesTotal();
percentLoaded = Math.floor((lBytes/tBytes)*100);
loader.bar._xscale = percentLoaded;
loader.percent.text = percentLoaded + "% of " + Math.floor(tBytes/1024) + "K loaded.";
if (lBytes>=tBytes && tBytes>0) {
if (count>=12) {
gotoAndPlay(25);
} else {
count++;
gotoAndPlay("preload");
}
} else {
gotoAndPlay("preload");
}




Thanx in advance!

How To Make My Player 6 Code Work In Player 7?
hiya,

does anyone know if it's possible to change this code so that it works when exported as 7 instead of 6??

i have a thumbnail slider that brings in images from XML. the XML bit works in 7 so
i think it's all going wrong at the slider code below:


// MAKES THE THUMBAILS SLIDE USING NEXT & PREVIOUS BUTTONS
function SlideMenu() {

this._x += (newX - this._x + thumbWidth) / 5;

// stops the thumbs at the first one
if (menu_mc._x >= 116) {
menu_mc._x = 116;

// stops thumbs at the end.
} else if (menu_mc._x < -(imageCount) ) {
menu_mc._x = -(imageCount);
//trace ("imagecount: " + (imageCount - endThumbBox));
}
}
// This next line calls the funtion named SlideMenu
menu_mc.onEnterFrame = SlideMenu;
delete this.onEnterFrame;


// next & back buttons
previous_mc.onRelease = function() {
XNumber++ ;
newX =- XNumber * -580;
}
next_mc.onRelease = function() {
XNumber-- ;
newX =- XNumber * -580;
}


i'd really like it to work with 7 cos i've since figured out that css only works with player 7 & up...

hope that it's a simple problem to solve (i'm pretty new to this) & someone can help me out

cheers

Different Drawing Handle Between IDE Player And Standalone Player.
I've made Jigsaw puzzle component. http://www.winx.ws/IdeStandDifference.jpg When I test thru IDE everything is fine. (picture left) When I start the swf with standalone player by clicking twice the pieces become broken. (picture right) Can figure out how the drawing points are different or what? Is it some alignment or setting don't know. Exe publishing is fine too. And calling drawing classes without component has same issue. I've try to put stage.scale=No scale and stage.align=TL no changes. I'm getting mad. Thx

Works In Test Player But Not On Flash Player
Does anyone know why a SWF that loads another SWF works great in the test player but not in the Flash player?

The problem I have specifically is any _root references in the loaded SWF (calling mehods in the original Timeline) does not work in the Flash player, but works just fine in the Test Player.

Thanks
