Video Not Visable
is there anyway I could send some kind of code back to the html page that embeds the streaming video that tells me weather or not the video is being displayed to the website visitor. For example the first 10 users that visit my page can see the video but the 11th can not. I would like a custom message displayed to the 11th user that tells them to try again in 5 minutes for example. Does anyone know the code in how I would accomplish this

How Come My Invisable Buttons Are Visable?
I have a bunch of invisable buttons on top of movie clips which play to reveal the jpg beneath.
my problem is that some of the rows of invisable buttons obscure the movieclips and jpg underneath... they are 'visable'
also, in flash, the invisable buttons are shown in 2 different colors a transparent color and an opaque color, although they are instances of the same button
why are the invisable buttons visable? HELP!
thanks for your time,

i'm making a portfolio site and i have dynamic text in two different places.
- the loading percent for the load bar
and...
-the scrolling text in my bio
if i open a new document and try to use dynamic text, it shows up fine.
I even tried to copy the frame from the new document and paste the frame into my movie. The text did not show.
I deleted all my masks the text still does not show.
I tried copying the frames of my site and place it into a brand new file, the text still doen't show.

Global Visable=false Syntax?
Hi all,
New-ish to actionscript 2.0. I'm scripting the button commands in my flash application and was wondering if there was an easy way to globally hide all ui screens instead of having to discretely identify each and every screen.
i.e. is there any way to replace the following with some sort of global.visable=false command?
Code:
overview_nav_btn.onRelease=function(Void)
{
var x:String="transgenic.tg_overview";
trace(x)
_root.application.main.home.visable=false
_root.application.main.home.hm_overview.visable=false
_root.application.main.home.hm_about.visable=false
_root.application.main.characterizations.visible=false
_root.application.main.characterizations.char_overview.visable=false
_root.application.main.reports.visible=false
_root.application.main.reports.rp_overview.visible=false
_root.application.main.new-case.visible=false
_root.application.main.new-case.nc_overview.visible=false
_root.application.main.reports.visible=false
_root.application.main.reports.rp_pverview.visible=false
_root.application.main.transgenic.visable=true
_root.application.main.transgenic.tg_overview.visable=true
}
Note: if my application were only this large, it wouldn't be much of an issue to create script for each section to show and hide screens as needed. But when complete there are about 5 sub-screens to each of the above screens, as well as 4 other sections each with multiple screens and subscreens. When I hit a navigation button I want to hide ALL screens and subscreens, then rebuild the visable.
I'd rather do something like this:
Code:
overview_nav_btn.onRelease=function(Void)
{
var x:String="transgenic.tg_overview";
trace(x)
global.visable=false
_root.application.visable=true
_root.application.main.visable=true
_root.application.main.transgenic.visable=true
_root.application.main.transgenic.tg_overview=true
}
Basically I'm wanting to put my navigation buttons for this section on the _root.application.main screen instead of having to define the same buttons over and over on each sub-section. The downside is I'll have to discretely define the rebuilt visable ui with each button click. The upside is I'll only have to define about 7 buttons once, instead of defining 7 buttons 50+ times each.
Any help would be most appriciated.

Setting Dynamicaly Created Movie Visable In Loop

Making Only Content Visable Inside Of Movie Dimentions
this is quite possible a stupid question but,
i have a movie which is 600x500, it has animation inside of it but some of the tweens go over the border (outside of the 600x500 stage).
I have used the noScale setting so the user canot scale the movie.
But in flash player when i expand it and in my web browser you can see the gfx that go over the border of the movie.
I just want it so the user cannot scale and also so outside of the 600x500 stage nothing is displayed, so in a browser for example the 600x500 flash movie would sit in the middle with a thick white border around it (depending on screen resolution).
What do i need to do to achieve this? thanks

Is there a better way to do this? Thanks ahead of time for any of pointers... I'm still learning...

XML Image & Video-playing Gallery Issue. Video Doesn't Hide When Online.
Hi guys,
I've created a gallery using kirupa's tutorial that loads in, through xml, both images and streaming video swfs.
here's the link (then click on 'Real Art', then on 'Roster' in the menu):
http://www.studiotonne.com/tira/
All links (xml and content links in the xml) are pointing to an online server, so it should work offline in the same way it does online.
So offline, it all works fine and browsing through the gallery in the Roster for each artist, selecting each number in the gallery closes the current image/video and displays the new one, as it should.
Online however, the issue is different. For instance, clicking on 'Build', then on number 5 in the gallery (which is a streaming video embedded in a swf pulled in via xml), it streams in the required video. However, upon trying to select a different picture in the gallery, or choosing to view the gallery of a different artist, the video doesn't want to disappear and allow other images to be seen, as it does when viewed offline.
I'm sure its quite a simple thing to make the streaming video swf that the xml loads in, to disappear. I just don't understand why it works properly offline, whereas online, the video issue occurs.
Could it be a netConnection or netStream issue?
Here is the code for the build gallery in the roster:
Code:
stop();
function loadXML(loaded) {
trace("XML loading...");
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
displayPages();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("clientupdates/build/xml/build.xml");
p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;
/*
if(blnPreview) {
previous_btn._visible = false;
next_btn._visible = false;
} else {
previous_btn._visible = true;
next_btn._visible = true;
}
*/
} else {
preloader._visible = false;

picture._alpha += 10;
}
}
};
function nextImage() {

p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
}
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p--;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
function firstImage() {
trace("firstImage");
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
// Only show the artwork data unless we're not in preview mode
//if(!blnPreview) {
desc_txt.text = description[0];
picture_num();
//}
}
}
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
trace("Pic num:" + current_pos);
}
function displayPages() {
for(var i=1;i <=12; i++) {
if(i <= total) {
this["PageMC" + i].pgNum.text = "a";
this["PageMC" + i]._visible = true;
} else {
this["PageMC" + i]._visible = false;
}
}
}
function setPage(pageNum) {
if(pageNum>=0 && pageNum <total) {

picture.loadMovie(image[pageNum], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[pageNum];
picture_num();
}
}
var my_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
my_nc.connect(null);
var my_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(my_nc);
Thanks for reading guys. I hope you can help.

Video Stops And Audio Continues - Individual Scenes Work, Together Video Freezes
This is my first flash project ever, but I think I got a handle on layers, scenes, using streamed audio, etc. The sync works for every scene when tested independently. Those exported .swf run fine. But when I try to publish the entire movie as a .swf or .exe or any other format, it always freezes at a certain point. The video stops but the audio continues.
Can anyone help me or give me an idea of where to start diagnosing the issue?
I've resorted to converting each individual .swf into .avis then combining the segments into the video that I want, but, of course, this doesn't retain the size, scalability, and quality benefits of a .swf file. Please help!

Flash Video Gallery €“ Link To Specific Video Upon Launch
I saw this question asked before when first doing a search on this topic, but have yet to see any replies, let alone any that work.
How can I link from within a web page to a specific video that is contained within a modified version of Adobe's Flash video Gallery tutorial?
When a user clicks on a link that says "View Dr. Jones Lecture", I want the Flash Video Gallery to launch with Dr. Jones' video loading and playing immediately. As it stands now, the video player just wants to wait until someone locates and then clicks on the video of their choice WITHIN the video player itself. That is fine if a generic "Launch our Video Gallery" link is clicked, but not if the user is expecting a specific video to play.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Cheers!

Embedded Video Object In Video Basics - Part 1 Tutorial
I am a total newbie at Flash, so please bear with me. In Lee's Video Basics - Part 1 tutorial, one of the first steps is to create a Embedded Video object in the library. Flash Professional MX 2004 is being used in the tutorial and I am using Flash Professional 8, so maybe that is the reason I'm having a problem. The tutorial shows that by clicking "New Video" in the library panel, the embedded video object is automatically added to the library. When I click "New Video", I get a Video Properties dialogue box that defaults to "Video (ActionScript-controlled)". When I check the Embedded option, the OK button becomes disabled...only Cancel and Import are enabled. Clicking the Import button gives me an open dialogue box for a *.flv file. I'm not sure what to do here. Am I supposed to select the .flv file that I am going to use? I was under the impression that the tutorial was creating a generic object that I would be able to reuse whereas selecting a .flv file would make it specific to what I'm working on now. Can someone that is using Flash Professional 8 clarify what I should do?
Thanks,
Pat

Making A Presentation/commercial/training Video...(using Video)
Hail everyone...
I wanted to know what best to use if I wanted to make the above mentioned (in the topic subject)...
Seeing as tv res is 350x200 (or somesuch) the res won't be a problem (using DV cam), but as soon as I import the movie in flash, it pixalates BADLY (no quality for use in a TV commercial)...
What is the best format & encoding to use for this...
Or is there an app that can import layers from flash...
Because I need intricate shapes over my movie (playing as part of background, or only displayed half way across the screen)
I have to whip out a miracle with limited resources & I need some help please
Thanks before hand...

Unable To Scroll Video Until Video Plays In Entirety
Hi all.
I'm making a simple flash file to play a flv off a server. I'm using a flash skin with seekbar but the scroll triangle on the seek bar doesnt show up until the movie has played in its entirety. I would like to have it show up as soon as the movie starts playing.
Here's the steps I did using Flash Professional 8 on a Mac
import video (set the url path)
custom skin URL (typed in path) to SteelExternalPlaySeekMute.swf
My component inspector looks like this
autoplay - true
autorewind - true
autosize - true
buffertime - 0.1
contentpath - the url of the file
cuepoints - none
islive - false
maintainaspectr - true
skin - url of the skin
skinautohide - true
totaltime - 0
volume - 100
so what do I have to do to make the ability to scroll the video once the video starts?
I've tried this with numerous skins and all have the same results
TIA
- Pete

Play Diffrent Video Infront Of Bigger Video
Hey guys, and many thanks to all the gurus for taking the time to help us none gurus out.
I'm using Flash CS3 with AS3, and using .swf to stream .flv
Here is want i would like to do:
I have some video clips that i am playing in a .swf (MAIN.swf)(i am doing this via streaming .flv) and its working fine. What i would like to is have a shorter video (SMALL.swf)(which will also be a .swf via .flv) play before the MAIN.swf, and i want to rotate or change the SMALL.swf every 3 times the SMALL.swf gets played and keep the MAIN.swf constant. With a cycle of about 3 diffrent SMALL.swf's going down a list SMALL1.swf, SMALL2.swf, etc. I would, if it is an all-in-one .swf, to have a preloader. Kinda like this:
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL1.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL1.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL1.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL2.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL2.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL2.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
Page loads...
Preload....
SMALL3.swf...plays....MAIN.swf.....done.
etc.....
I'm pretty sure you have to store a varible somewhere, somehow to keep up with the loads.
I'm not sure where to begin with this, Im not the best at AS...so any code you can give me would be awesome. Thanks

XML Video Gallery: How Do I Target A Video To Play In Popup?
Ok, so we have an XML driven video gallery... pretty common.
On our site, we have various stories that will need links to open a popup containing the video gallery and play a specific video from the library.
How can I target a certain video (define the contentPath) with a link on an HTML page thru the window.open javascript command.
For instance:
This link will open videoA.flv
This link will open videoB.flv
Hope that makes sense.

Making A Music Video -- Audio-video Sync?
Apparently, the sound file must be set to stream to assure synchronization.
I also read this somewhere:
Note that it's critical to add a preloader to allow the music file to properly stream down to the player before playback begins. With the sound file set to Stream, the animation and song may be out of step with each other if this step is not taken.
What does this mean? If the song it's set to stream it just isnt loaded in the preloader -- how do I make it load?
One more question, what is the optimal framerate for a music video? 30?

Pull Video From Client Or Push Video To Server
Hi,
In windows media server there are options such as pull or push.
In pull mode the server asks clients to stream data when required.
In push mode clients continiously stream data to the server.
push consumes more bandwith because it is a constant stream-it does not care if there are users who want to view live stream or not-it just streams.
pull is more intelligent way of publishing because it only generates traffic between clients and server if someone wants to view the stream.
So is there such a configuration in Flash Media Server? If not, does the push mode always streams the data?
Thanks in advance!

Video Encoder Can't Read MPEG-2 Video Track
I've recorded some MPEG-2 videos from a new Sony camcorder, and I can't turn them into FLV files using Flash CS3 Video Encoder. Each time I open the settings window, it says "This file has no readable video track."
However, the mpeg's play fine on ALL my media players (Real, Windows Media Player, etc.).
I've found a workaround -- I have to use some freeware to convert the MPEG-2 files into MPEG-4 files, and then the encoder can read them. But I'm still mystified as to why the Adobe encoder won't read the MPEG-2's.
Any ideas?

What's The Best Method For Video Loop + Precached Video Transitions?
Hello, I am hoping that a kindly Flash guru can send me running off in the right direction.
What I want to do is make a SWF which works in the same manner as a DVD menu, using Flash video.
Simply put, that means having a video loop for the background of each 'page', with links to other pages. Each of these links would travel through a video transition to reach the next page.
I am an experienced Java programmer; After Effects user and DVD Author but I have to admit that as a beginner to Flash, I find the number of ways you can embed video... symbols... media server etc. quite confusing.
All I want to do is have my loops and transitions as FLV files on my normal HTTP server, play the current loop while precaching the possible transitions etc.
I am very happy to research the precise coding aspect of this but I am hoping someone can tell me which of the (apparently numerous) methodologies available is the best one to go down.
Do I need to have all my objects in the timeline, or can I have a single object and reassign the video with code?
If it helps my video loops and transitions are 400x300 and around 4-10 seconds, so the bandwidth requirements aren't unreasonable.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

AS2 CS3: Video Player Class W/ NetStream Video Object
is it possible to use the properties of the videoPlayer class with a video object that is not wrapped in a flvplayBack component. I am having trouble using the maintainAspectRatio property with my current video object. Additional question, If you use a flvPlayBack component are you forced to use a skin for the controller or can you use a controller that was built in the swf of the video object?

FLASH 8 Video / Flv/skins In Subdirectory Cause Video Not To Display.
When I do my flash work, I usually keep my flash files in a directory that's not the same as my php or html files.
I usually keep my .swf files in /siteswf/
When I upload the html that calls my flash movie , for example siteswf/movie.swf
it would normally play fine as long as the html and the .swf are uploaded. but for some reason the .swf won't play because it wants the flv and the skin of the flash 8 movie (flv) to be in the same directory as the html file calling it. How do I fix this so I don't have to put the movies and the skin in the same directory as my html files?

Video Sharing Site (like Youtube) With AS3 Video Player?
I was planning on using YouTube to upload some content then stream the videos (as swf's) back into my project. The problem is that the YouTube player is AS2 so I have to use some workarounds to be able to control the video. I was wondering if there were any other video sharing sites that used an AS3 based player so I could control it from within my own code without the workarounds needed for you tube.

No Video (only Audio) When Playing Basic Video Player.
Hey everyone.
I used to be fairly good at flash, and then i had a break. Now i'm struggling with this really simple problem, that no one else seems to be having...
Here is my actionscript for playing the video
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream (nc);
theVideo.AttachVideo(ns);
ns.play("antena1wheel_1.flv");
When i preview it, it comes up with the white stage, and you can hear the sound... but no sign of any video.
Thanks, and appologies for my stupidity...
Tim =)

Interactive Video; Action After Video Is Played.
Hi everyone,
I'll skip the "I'm new to flash.. yada yada", you probably find out when reading this anyway, since I think this might be a basic thing.
The scenario:
A video is played. When the video finish, a screen pops up with buttons with options. Depending on what options the person picks a new video plays; Option A plays video A and option B plays video B, and so on..
Problem:
How do I make this happen? How do I assign this option screen to pop up when a movie clip is finished playing?
The video clips are .flv's at different labels in the timeline, is this the right procedure?

Flash Video Encoder - Sizing Video
Hello
I have an uncompressed video at 720x486. I need to encode it to Flash video at 640x480. When I import it into Flash Video Encoder, I use the custom settings to output a 640x480 movie at 30fps and 550kbps using the VP6 codec.
Flash video outputs a 720x486 movie.
What am I doing wrong?
