Flash Version Check In Projector File
If I am not using an HTML doc with my Flash file, but just a projector file (the file will be on a CD and not accessed from a web site or page), how can I do a version check for the correct version of Flash? Will the version check from the HTML tab in the publish settings still work?

Old Version Of Flash Player And Location Of Flash Player In The Computer?
Hello forum!
I want to test the update process of my site but already have the latest version of flash player. So I have two problems:
-the first one is that I can't find older versions (fp6 or fp7) on the internet
-the other one is that (don't smile) I can't manage to uninstall the latest version of flash player from my computer! I unistalled all flash player programs in the control panel of windows XP, I don't find flash player in the "program files" folder, however flash player is always working!!

Flash Player Version 6 And AS2.0
Can someone please clarify this for me?
I am using several components and scripts which use AS2.0.
Will these movies still playback correctly when run in a browser with Flash Player 6 plugin? I am publishing to Flash Player 6 when creating my swf files.
I suddenly had a shocking thought that maybe, despite publishing to Flash Player 6, my AS2.0 scripts will not run properly unless played back with Flash Player 7.
Any info greatly appreciated.

Mac Flash 6 Player FPS Bug In Version 7 Gone?
Hi,
once I heard, that version 6 of the flash player for mac had a bug so that all framerates between 19 and 30 were played at 19 fps which can be quite annoying due to choppy animations.
So I decided to make all my films play at 31 fps.
It is obvious that 31 fps result in bigger filesizes than 24 or 25 which would usually be used.
Does anybody know if that bug has been removed in player version 7?
Thanks in advance
best regards

Old Flash Player Version
posting this here cause I wasn't sure what was a more appropriate forum.
Right, I've been wanting to check some work with the flash player 5 plug-in.
So I unistalled flash player 6 using the macromedia uninstaller, downloaded the flash player 5 .cab from their archive, set it up on my computer. Now when I right click on an swf to see the context menu, it says "About Shockwave Flash 3.0" - naturally I was expecting to see "Flash 5.0".
So how's that then? Why isn't version 5 coming up? I don't get it.
Additionally - when you publish a movie in Flash MX, with an old version of flash player selected in the flash section of the publish settings, does that actually work?
I ask because I'll publish from MX, but for version 5, then I'll look at the published html page and in the OBJECT tag it still says "version=6,0,0,0" (amongst a load of other stuff).
Some effects - e.g. movie clip masking using setMask simply won't work in old flash versions, right? And if that's the case, then what's the point of the option in th first place?
cheers for your time

Flash Player Version With Scrollpane
Hi all, hope you can help me out here.
I wish to create a scrollpane (got that working) but I'm exporting in Flash Player 5, because I was thinking maybe everybody hasn't got Flash Player 6 yet.
There are two ways to solve this problem, that I can think of.
1. Somehow get the scrollpane to work with Flash Player 5 (if that's possible)
2. The best way to detect current Flash Player version and install the requiered one. Without them even "knowing about it". I want to do it as smooth as possible beacuse these guys know nothing about computers, I don't want to scare them
Any help would be highly appreciated, thanks

Detect Flash Player Version?
Seems like an obvious question that someone out there knows... How do I detect the version of the flash player that a user is using? I am publishing as flash 6 and need to let anyone using flash 5 know that they need the new player.
Thanks in advance.

Most Widely Used Flash Player Version?
I'm just starting to design a site and my boss is worried about not enough users having the flash 7 player. He wants to publish with the flash 5 player, which I just can't even bear to think of because of the limitations it puts on me as a flash developer.
Do you guys think that backward compatibility is really that necessary? Or do you think a splash page that says 'page requires flash player 6/7, click here to get it' would suffice?
Thanks

Flash Player Version To Publish
I am about to publish my movie and upload to web. Should I publish it to version 8(then the user will have to download version 8 for it to run right?) Or should I publish it to any earlier version (any recommended?) so that less people have to go through the hassle of downloading a newer version to view my site?

Which Flash Player Version To Export To
Hi, I have a client who is not able to see my flash movie on a few of his clients computes using old versions of flash, and tells me he sees other flash sites fine.
When I export the swf file out of flash, it gives me the option to choose any flash player going back all the way to flash player 1. Will choosing an old export version like flash player 1 allow the swf file to be viewable on the most browsers? What other options do I have to ensure that is vieweable on as many computers as possible?
thanks tons!!

Flash Player 9 Version Problems
I have a flash interface designed in flash cs3 with some dynamic UI elements created via actionscript 3 during runtime. I used flash player ver 9.0.115 for development and testing purposes and everything seemed to be working. Lately I have found that the interface fails to render on the older minor versions of flash player 9 , specifically I tried on ver 9.0.16 and 9.0.45. Some of the UI elements doesn't shop up(eg. textArea) or keeps flickring when loaded. I have been struggling to make my interface work atleast with all versions of flash player 9. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

[Q] Flash Player Version Issue...
Okay... Another dumb question for anybody who wants to grab...
Is it correct that if I make a Flash movie in FMX 2004 with the AS 1.0 and have it publish for Flash Player 6, then anybody who has Flash Player 6 SHOULD be able to play the movie, right???
Well... That sounds logical to me that it should be working that way, but one of my coworker's Mac and another PC didn't play the movie, so that's why I am asking the question...
As a side note, I went to MM site to find out that they don't have FMX trial version download anymore... Dang it... I guess I am forced to stay with the 2004... Don't I hate it??? I am sure that I am not going to use AS 2.0 since the final product will be pretty much for F5 and F6, but I don't feel good about this... Oh, well...

Problems With New Version Of Flash Player
I've seen all posts here but I don't know if what I am asking is covered.
I have Weather Channel desktop and I think that it may be causing a conflict because with the earlier versions, the information pop up window would always display temp., radar..
I know that this requires to have Adobe Flash Player.
when the window pops out, all I get is a blue screen with no information.
The temperature does appear on the system tray,
It's only when I double click it to see options, they are like faded, cannot change settings.
Anybody having this problem with other programs that require the flash player and does not display the information?
Thanks.

Combobox And Flash Player Version 9,0,16,0
Does anybody know that if you use a combobox component in flash, it creates conflict with specific sub version of flash player like: 9,0,16,0 and does not load properly and the flsh file is stuck on the first frame of the movie.
The file runs ok on sub version like: 9,0,45,0
Any suggestions to fix this problem?

SetVariable & Flash Player Version
I stumpled upon this odd problem. I guess when I make something with Flash MX, then IE and Flash Player version 6 should be enough to view and handle it correctly?
An example:
On a HMTL page where the Flash is loaded, I have a JavaScript function along the lines:
var x = document.movie.GetVariable ("_root.clip._x");
Which gives me the x-coordinate of the Movie Clip "clip". This part works fine in Flash Player 6. However, if I try something along the following:
var x = "100";
document.movie.SetVariable ("_root.clip._x", x);
It works fine in Flash Player 7 and the clip moves in the Flash Movie, but nothing happens in version 6.
Did I miss something or is version 7 just required for this?

Flash Player Version Confusion
Hi Guys,
I have a silly, yet important question about Flash Player versions. What happens if I publish a flash file for the Flash 8 player, but the user only has a Flash 7 player? Specifically, I want to use the new glow filter Flash 8 provides on a navigation bar on one of my sites. Does this mean that a user with only Flash 7 player will see everything but the new glow feature, or that the user will not be able to view the file at all without the Flash 8 player?
I know that the Flash 8 player has about 70-75% penetration already, and it would be worth it to me to publish under Flash 8 if the user could still use my navigation bar but would not be able to see the glow filter I am using. However, I fear that the user would not be able to view the flash 8 file at all and since it is my navigation bar in that case I would want to avoid taht and just publish to flash 7 instead. Any advice on this subject? Thank you!

AS 2 XmlSocket On Flash Player Version 8
I m currently developed an xmlSocket flash socket that connect to a php socket server.
Myserver was listening on "kent", which is my PC name and my flash will connect to the server, 'kent' obviously on port 1025.
When I tried this on Flash player 9, it work perfectly but not in Flash player 8 (maybe below will also not functioning).
However, if I change the server listen on localhost, it worked fine on Flash player 8, the code like this:
socket.connect("localhost", 1025); // work fine in flash 8 and flash 9.
socket.connect("kent", 1025); // work fine in flash 9 but NOT flash 8.
Any idea what will be the issue here???
Thanks in advanced!!!

Flash Player Version Question
Does anybody know of a way to figure out what version a SWF was published for. For example, how could I find out what Flash Player version YouTube has targeted for their video player? The player I have may be a more recent version.
Thanks for any advice!

Design For What Version Of Flash Player?
Hi chaps.
I was just wondering what everyones opinion was with regards to what flash player version one should design for
The easy answer is well, flash 3 of course. But you cant do much with flash 3 player can you plus it also adds loads onto development time catering for old players?
Personally I have the inclination to design for flash 6 and above :-)
Any opinions?
Cheers

Version Of Flash Player To Target?
Hi All,
I want to get a feel for what version of Flash player developers use for web sites with non-techically orientated users.
I'm working on my first relatively complex Flash project. Some of the features that I am using were only made available in Flash player 6. I'm slightly concerned, since in the past, I have kept to Flash 5 (for simple slide-show type tasks).
Is it reasonably "safe" to expect Flash 6 these days? Does anyone have any statistics on the % of web browsers with each version (if any) of Flash player installed?

private var stageHeight_num:Number = stage.stageHeight;
public function StageProblems() {
