Projector Auto Start For Mac?
I am using flash MX and was wondering if there was a script that would make a projector auto start from a mac platform. As in, the user inserts the CD into their computer, and the flash movie automatically launches and plays. (not in a browser window, just through the projector)

I've had no trouble finding the script for a PC, just haven't had the same luck for the mac.

Thanks.

Auto-start 2nd Flash File
My first flash file was too large to post it as one file (exceeded 16,000 frames) so I'm attempting to automatically start a second flash file when the first one ends.

I can't find a way to do it within the html I'm working in. Am I missing something or can it be done with javascript in the html. If it can't be done in the html, can it be done in flash?

Thank you!

Flash Loadsound Auto Start Issue
I'm having an issue with an mp3 player I wrote in Flash 8. This issue only happens in IE(6 & 7 so far). Here is the rundown.

When the page loads the flash movie the mp3 automatically starts to stream and play. Once the mp3 has completely downloaded and you refresh the page the mp3 shows 100% downloaded, but it does not automatically start playing like it should. I have to push the pause and play button to make it start. If I open a new IE window or new tab in IE 7 and go to the page, the MP3 shows 100% downloaded and starts playing immediately.

Here is a test page:
http://www.findmotive.com/flashautostart/

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How To Prevent Auto Start Of Video In Flash?
Thanks for the help in advance.

I just need to NOT have the video start playing automatically when it loads. I use import video option in flash and then encode it, then publish it. I tried to put stop(); in frame/video but that didn't work and I don't see any properties when I click on the video object so I'm not sure how I can go about doing this. I just need to video to load as stopped. not auto-play. Thank you.

NEWBIE: Auto-start Slide Show
Hello Flash Gurus,
I'm a newbie trying to do the following; I need a flash with actionscript able to:

. load images (and other info) from an external file (this is working, already)

. auto start a slide-show with images swapping with fade-out/fade-in.

Additionaly:
. possibly configure the size of the flash by also reading from the external file
. possibly read a different transition type from the external file
. possibly change the fade steps and swap speed from the ext. file.

I'm attaching a zip file with the .fla I'm working on (no images and 'img' subdir, because that was too big to attach > 74K). The exteranl reading and LoadMovie works, but I just can see the last image, no transitions, no intervals.

I've problems understanding (have no good manuals) the structure of the program. What triggers events and which events?


Thanks for suggestions and examples applicable to mine,
bye nIc

Help Creating An Auto-play Loop
I had a post on here yesterday that addressed an issue I had with a loop, but since then I rewrote my actionscript and I believe it will work differently.

Basically, I have 4 images. Two of those images are identical, with the exception that the one that appears initially will not have a left arrow to go back to the previous image. Anytime you return to that image however, it will have a left arrow.

The user should have the ability to continue pressing the arrows to see the different images.

Here is my code:

Code:


stop();

// imports the easing and tween class for use globally
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
import mx.transitions.Tween;

var aTween:Tween;

// move clip functions
function scrollRight(curr:Number){

switch(curr){

}

//Events that happen when right lacerise button is pressed
function laceriseArrowR_func() {
scrollRight(2);
}


// start autoplay function





My issue here is that I'd like to create an Autoplay feature, so that the images just start progressing on their own from the start of the movie. If someone clicks an arrow, it would temporarily override the autoplay and go to the next image. The autoplay would then resume.

I wrote the actionscript so that there is a parameter to say what the current image is, I'm just not sure how to call that in a loop and create that autoplay.

I attached the file so you may have a better idea of what I am working with.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Auto Slideshow, Play Btn Won't Loop Function
Hi,
I'm trying to get my Flash Movie to loop a function that advances a slideshow by one jpg. The script worked when a "back" and "forward" button was used to advance the jpgs. I'm trying to alter the script by using a function that will run through all the jpgs when a "play" button is pressed. I have added a call to the function on that button and there is a setInterval on that button as well...So far, the play button only fades out the place holder image that is loaded as soon as the movie starts (I want this image to continue to load without the play button being pressed)...the script isn't looping, it never loads another image. Would someone mind looking my code in the fla I've attached? I've attached a zip file for you to download. It includes the folder with the jpgs.
What I'm I doing wrong? I think I've just overlooked a minor detail...I'm I wrong? Thanks for your help

On First Loop Start Next Movie Clip
I have two movie clips sharing the same frame on my main outline (two different layers though). One movie starts first and it loops three times with this script:

_global.count = count+1;
if (count < 3){
gotoAndPlay(1);
} else {
stop();
gotoAndPlay(_parent.nextFrame());
}

Ok, I want the other clip to start after this movie clip does its first loop and starts its second. What action script can I put in to tell it to make this happen. Will I need script for both clips to tell the first one to start the second and to tell the second to wait for the first?

Please help

Thanks

Loop, Change Visibility, Start Over...
I am using FlashMX 2004.
I have searched for a post regarding this situation, but have found nothing. If one is out there please direct me to it and sorry for the repost.

I am trying to make a loop of somesort where 5 images are continuously looped. I want the loop to count from 1 to 5 (each number representing an image at the end of the loop) In other words, the loop will start at one (showing the first image)then once a tween has been performed the count will move up one to number two and the second image will become visible and the others will become invisible. I want it to do this for all 5 images and then start over at one again. If you need more explanation please ask, I have been working on this for a couple days. Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Need To Loop Flv Between Midway Start And End Points
Does anyone know how to create in and out markers that you could drag along a scrub bar. These would allow you to set the start and end position anywhere along the scrub bar and then loop within the two markers. I see it being used on this FLV play:

http://www.vanderbilly.com/Guitar-Lesso ... 741,1.html


I think I've stumbled across the right approach. Although it doesn't work! I should be using a scrub handle to set an Actionscript cuepoint for the start and another for the end. Then setup a listener to loop at the end scrub cuepoint back up to the start scrub cuepoint. Now I need to know where to find the coding. I've already setup the scrubStart and scrubEnd onPress and onRelease functions. But I don't know what to do next. Here's what I have: This is not php. It's actionscript.



PHP Code:



var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
theVideo.attachVideo(ns);
ns.setBufferTime(30);

ns.onStatus = function(info) {
    trace(info.code);
    if (info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full") {
        bufferClip._visible = false;
    }
    if (info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty") {
        bufferClip._visible = true;
    }
    if (info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
        ns.seek(0);
    }
};

//plays video
ns.play("flv_test.flv");

//Control Buttons
//playButton
playButton.onRelease = function() {
    ns.pause();
};
autoRewind


//stopButton
stopButton.onRelease = function() {
    ns.stop();
};

/*
//rewindButton
rewindButton.onRelease = function() {
ns.seek(0);
}
*/


var videoInterval = setInterval(VideoStatus, 100);//set this so it may be cleared later on during scrubing.
var amountLoaded:Number;
var duration:Number;

ns["onMetaData"] = function (obj) {
    //onMetaData is an undocumented feature.
    //onMetaData sends an information object. In the object is the duration
    //onMetaData only works if FLV is created with an app that uses a
    //flash video exporter 1.1 or greater.
    duration = obj.duration;
    //catch the duration object.  duration will be the total length in seconds
};

function videoStatus() {
    amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded/ns.bytesTotal;
    loader.loadbar._width = amountLoaded*250;// 250 = width of scrub bar, animates loader along loadbar
    loader.scrub._x = ns.time/duration*250;//animates scrub along x axis of the loadbar. "time" returns
    //current position of playhead in seconds.
}


/*Begin basic scrub*/
var scrubInterval;

loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
    clearInterval(videoInterval);//clear var in prep for scrubbing
    scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit, 10);
    this.startDrag(false,0,this._y,250,this._y);// allows scrub to be dragged the full length of scrub bar
};
loader.scrub.onRelease = loader.scrub.onReleaseOutside=function () {
    //event triggered in or outside the scrub hit area
    clearInterval(scrubInterval);
    videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus, 100);
    this.stopDrag();
};

function scrubit() {
    ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/250)*duration));// 250 is full width of scrubBar
}
/*End Basic Scrubber*/






var scrubStartInterval;
var scrubEndInterval;

/*begin Start scrub cue*/
loader.scrubStart.onPress = function() {
    clearInterval(videoInterval);
    scrubStartInterval = setInterval(Startscrubit,10);// 250 is full width of scrubBar
    this.startDrag(false,0,this._y,250,this._y);// allows scrub to be dragged the full length of scrub bar
};
loader.scrubStart.onRelease = loader.scrubStart.onReleaseOutside=function () {

    ns.addASCuePoint(myStartCP);
}


/*begin End scrub cue*/
loader.scrubEnd.onPress = function() {
    scrubEndInterval = setInterval(Endscrubit,10);// 250 is full width of scrubBar

I have looping background music going on in the menu and I have it set so when the user clicks the first project1.exe it stops the song playing in the menu.swf so it can load and play all the effects etc... from the project1.exe. When the user clicks exit on that project and comes back to menu.swf, the music is still stopped (no surprise).

Is there any way to make the music start back up or continue where it left off when the user comes back to the menu.swf.

Knowing my luck, I am sure it's really simple.

Thanks.

Flv Player Auto Hide
Hi, I was wondering if someone could helf me to include an auto-hide function for a flv-player. I was thinking about adding all the control components to a mc, which you could fade in and out (mc roll-over). I did it already, but is wasn't working, just flickering. I think I have to change the rooting or the levels, but I have no idea how.

example: http://vimeo.com/

gotoandlearn flv code
Code:

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

theVideo.attachVideo(ns);

ns.setBufferTime(10);

ns.onStatus = function(info) {
   trace(info.code);
   if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full") {
      bufferClip._visible = false;
   }
   if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty") {
      bufferClip._visible = true;
   }
   if(info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
      ns.seek(0);
   }
}

stopButton.onRelease = function() {
   ns.pause();
}

ns.play("Showreel_fs.flv");

playButton.onRelease = function() {
   ns.pause();
}

rewindButton.onRelease = function() {
   ns.seek(0);
}

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 * 208.9;
   loader.scrub._x = ns.time / duration * 208.9;
}

var scrubInterval;

loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
   clearInterval(videoInterval);
   scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit,10);
   this.startDrag(false,0,this._y,208,this._y);
}

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

function scrubit() {
   ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/208)*duration));
}

var theMenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
theMenu.hideBuiltInItems();
_root.menu = theMenu;

var item1:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("::::: Video Controls :::::",trace);
theMenu.customItems[0] = item1;

var item2:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Play / Pause Video",pauseIt,true);
theMenu.customItems[1] = item2;

var item3:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Replay the Video",restartIt);
theMenu.customItems[2] = item3;

var item4:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("© 2005 Lee Brimelow",trace,true);
theMenu.customItems[3] = item4;

function pauseIt() {
   ns.pause();
}

function stopIt() {
   ns.seek(0);
   ns.pause();
}

function restartIt() {
   ns.seek(0);
}

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("vSound",_root.getNextHighestDepth());
vSound.attachAudio(ns);

var so:Sound = new Sound(vSound);

so.setVolume(100);

mute.onRollOver = function() {
   if(so.getVolume()== 100) {
      this.gotoAndStop("onOver");
   }
   else {
      this.gotoAndStop("muteOver");
   }
}

mute.onRollOut = function() {
   if(so.getVolume()== 100) {
      this.gotoAndStop("on");
   }
   else {
      this.gotoAndStop("mute");
   }
}

mute.onRelease = function() {
   if(so.getVolume()== 100) {
      so.setVolume(0);
      this.gotoAndStop("muteOver");
   }
   else {
      so.setVolume(100);
      this.gotoAndStop("onOver");
   }
}

Stop & Start Buttons For Sound Loop
Hi, I'm new to flash and I'm experimenting having a looped sound that is controlled by a stop and start button.

http://www.tarotrealm.co.uk/flashtest.htm

Why is it on this page the stop button manages to stop the looped wave sound but after a few seconds the sound starts playing again?! And when the sound is stopped after pressing the button, the play button doesnt seem to work? Ive used the actionscript play and stop movie controls for the buttons.

Any help appreciated!

Auto Install Flash Player From CD
I am creating flash/projector content to be used in an interactive enhanced section for the CD release of our forthcoming album. Amongst other things I'm using it to play a video we have had shot for one of our songs. This uses features that need flash player 6. It runs fine on my computer but when tested on another, the video wouldn't play because of an old flash player.

If I include the installation program for the player on the CD, is there anyway I can get it to autodetect and install??

Auto-Scrolling An MP3 Player Listbox
I'm curious if anyone has worked on this problem:
I've created an MP3 player based on the now classic code at:

http://www.thegoldenmean.com/technique/mp3player01.html

One of the shortcomings of the player (that users seem to notice) is that the listbox doesn't scroll to reveal the currently selected item when the player is in "continuous" mode. The selected items disappear from view. I'm wondering if using FListbox.getScrollPosition and FListbox.setScrollPosition could be used to get the listbox menu to update and scroll the current selection to the top of the menu screen. If the listbox data object siimply returns an index number it seems like that number could be used to feed the getScrollPosition function.

I'm spending the holidays with relatives (away from my computer) so I can't actually test this. Has anyone else found a fix?

Cheers.
