Flash Player That Can Show Several Movies
hi everybody,
i'm looking for a flash-player that allows me to show several flash-animations in succession. the player should show the flash-animations one after another in a definable order. it would be nice if the player supports some kind of cross-fading effects that can be inserted between the different flash-animations.
thanx mar.s.

Is This The Right Approach To Show A Gallery Of Flash Movies?
I am loading all the external swf onto thumbnails movie clips at the bottom of the page.
When the user clicks the thumbnail, it is duplicated and the property set to a bigger size on a different position on the screen.
Problem is the subsequent movies are stack on top of the first one even though they are on the same level/depth.
I tried to use the remove movie clip (using the instance name) but doesn't work, maybe because they are loaded movies to start with? don't kow.
Perhaps this is not the best approach. Wonder...
Thanks in advance to anyone who cares to help.

Show Flash Movies During Software Installation?
I want to jazz up the installation process of some software I made. I'm wondering if Flash can do the job.
Is it possible to put an swf file inside Installshield so that the graphics look Flash-cool as the user clicks through the installation process?
Or is it possible to build an Installshield-like installer program with Flash that leads the users through the installation process. Perhaps with the aid of Jugglor or some other third-party Flash extended-functionality program? (make an .exe to install software)
Basically, I want my software to have some eye-candy during the installation process. How do I do that with Flash?

If No Flash Player, Show An Image Instead
Hi,
This may be a very simple question, in which case apologies.: I've tried to find the answer without success. It may also be impossible. I'm too much of a newbie even to know!
If you have an swf file embedded in a webpage, is it possible to set it up so that if the viewer doesn't have flash player they can see an image that sits underneath the swf and don't get the horrible white square? How would you do this?
Many thanks,

Prevent Flash Player 7 Menu In IE To Show On Right Click
I have made a logg in system where i redirect the flash playhead to differnet
labels, depending on if the user has entered a correct password. It works OK.
But then i found out that by rightclick on the flash-file in Internet Explorer
a Flash player 7 menu displays. By choosing "play" in this menu the user gets controll over the Flash main Time line and can make it to play forward to all labels in the projekt.
That ****s up my log in system, i´m loosing control over label navigation.
Is there any way to prevent this Flash player 7 meny to display?
Thankfull for reply / Johan
Flash Video Player.Trying To Make Out What This Does....can Anyone Show Me The Light?
Hi All,
This is my first post here so please be gentle. I know this is a long question to start with but I´m pretty desperate to understand this.
Ok, I subscribe to a magazine called Web Developer (UK Mag) and this following script came with a tutorial. The tutorial shows how to build the player, that´s easy enough but then basically it tells you to copy paste the code in frame 1 of the main time. While this does work... I can´t make out what some of the code does or most of it that is.
Hopefully someone could shed some light on this for me? I´ll include the files also.
I think this tutorial could also help other people on the forum.
Here´s a description of video Players structure, but the file is included:
There are 3 movieClips on the main timeline with 1 frame duration (on separate layers), each with 3 FLV inside them. Through the keyboard, you can control the ones that are played.
Here´s the code I can include the Fla since its a bit big due to the FLVs included. I´ve included some comments of my own.
Quote:
---
/* these are the instances of the movieClips on the timeline. This causes them not to play initially*/
background_mc.stop();
foreground_mc.stop();
fx_mc.stop();
/* I believe that these are variables created to disable the layers with the movieClips but I´m not sure*/
var backgroundPlaying:Boolean=false;
var foregroundPlaying:Boolean=false;
var fxPlaying:Boolean=false;
/*from here on I´m lost*/
var nextBG:String="";
var nextFG:String="";
var nextFX:String="";
/*from here I understand the ifs to active certain keypresses but I don´t understand the ---- nextBG="city" ---- what is it referring to ? No frames are named so how does it know where to send the timeline to? */
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (Key.isDown(81)) {
nextBG="city";
}
if (Key.isDown(87)) {
nextBG="fire";

Flash Video Player Doesn't Show Up In Programs List.
I have successfully installed Flash Video Player (the latest version) on two different computers, but I cannot find the executable to open the player. I have more than one FLV player on my computer. I should be able to right-click on the video file, select "open with..." and select Adobe Flash as the player, however, it does not show up anywhere on the programs list - why is this?

Replay Different Movies In The Very Same Flash Player
Hello guys,
I've got a little problem which I can't get over and I need help.
I'm developing some flash movies which will be published into a C++ application.
Each movie is an "exercise"; when an exercise is completed and the next one is loaded the second one seems to start stopped, just like it isn't playing.
So I gave up the C++ application and I've been working just with the files.
I've been trying to double click on the swf of the first exercise and then -with the first swf still running- draggin and dropping the next exercise on the same player...same result, the second movie is not running again.
If I play each movie separately I haven't got any problem at all but the minute I try to play those movies in the same player all the movies (but the first) start stopped.
How can I solve this?
I've been trying by declare "play()" and "_root.play()" on the first frame / first scene but no luck

Preview In Flash Player, Loading Movies
Hi,
When I preview my movie in FlashPlayer, with the download settings to 56K, I have the feeling the player doesn't react like it should.
I load several Movies (all between 10 and 20 KB, and with their first keyframe blank and a stop on it) into different levels into a Main movie on the first frame of the main movie. I give them enough time (about 5 seconds) to load by showing a little intro in the main movie. Then I can call the loaded movies to play.
This worked fine on another site I made. But when I preview my current project in FlashPlayer (pressing ctrl+enter two times), I have the feeling that the external movies are not loaded right away, but only when the user calls them by, for instance, pressing the menu buttons.
And I think this will be different in the 'real world' situation, looking at another project i have done.
Could someone tell me please if this is a know problem, or am I making a mistake? It's a lot easier to check the speed of my site in the previewer than to keep asking people to check it who have a slow connection!
thank you!

Flash Player File Size For Movies?
Hello all,
New to the forums. My boss set up our website and wants a 2 minute video to play at the top roughly 320x240. The drop zone can allow a 4 mb flash. Could this work? If so, what format should i output the video to get the best results when importing and exporting through flash?
I searched the forums for the last hour and couldn't find exactly that. Thanks in advance for the help. My knowledge of Flash is very limited. Thank you again.
Viewing Flash Movies W/ V.9 Player Crashes
Has anyone had any problem viewing flash movies on a Mac with the newest v.9 player? All our Mac's with the v.9 flash player take an extra 11-12 seconds to show up and have a tendency to crash our browsers. But viewing the exact same movie on the exact same computer with the v.8 player they work just fine. I've tried it on all our Mac's running different OS... both Power PC and Intell... different browsers and I am getting the same result. Flash 9 takes longer to load in and crashes the browser but 8 works just fine. However on a PC it works just fine with the v.9 player. I use Influxis and talked to them today...they can't seem to figure it out and are having their mac guy look into it for me. Thought I'd see if anyone else has had this problem. On a side note I like to listen to BBC Radio 1 and that site crashes on me all the time. But never happened before I installed the v.9 player. Did a little digging and found other people having the same problem. They say it has something to do with the banner ad's/video's being export to Flash 9.
If anyone has any ideas...please help me out. Below are a couple of links. The second one is a test Influxis set up as a test while I was on the phone with them. It uses a simple NetConnection with no player component. Both work great on all out Mac's with the v.8 player but not with the v.9.

Flash Movies Will Not Open In Macromedia Flash Player 5

Any ideas or suggestions?

Movies Don't Show Up In The Browser
I published my main movie, in which I had several movies loading in using loadMovie property.
I wanted to see how fast the web site would load on the internet, so I opened a free geocities account.
I loaded all the movies that are used in the main movie in one subdirectory, including the main movie with an .html extension.
When I test the web site, the main one shows up, but when I click on the buttons the other movies are not loading. Do you know why this is happening?
When I published my movie, and tested it on computer to see if everything works, it was all just fine, everything was working properly, but after I uploaded it on the internet, nothing loads except the main movie.
I hope you can help me
Movies Show Locally But Not On Web
The symptom: I'm not able to get a swf to show or play in an html page on a web server. The html page shows blank (though right clicking confirms there's an invisible swf on the page).
I followed the well written Adobe Design Center tutorial at http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/tutorials/videoencoderwizard/ (explicitly, and dozens of times) With each iteration, I first cleared out the files on my local drive and webserver and started fresh.
The process followed was:
1. Created a fla in Flash 8
2. Imported a MWV movie to the stage, following the parameters of the tutorial, and saved it as a FLA, FLV, swf skin, and swf movie to a single folder on my PC.
3. Created a blank html page in Dreamweaver 8. Inserted a Flash Video in the page. In the "Insert Flash Video" dialog box I set the following:
-Video type = Progressive Download Video; URL pointed to FLV file; Skin set to "Clear Skin 1"; Width 250
4. FTP'd one folder containing all files to the website: html, flv file, swf video, Clear_Skin_1.swf, ClearExternalPlayMute.swf (this is the control skin I set in Flash, but it wasn't available in the dropdown of the "Insert Flash Video" dialog box in Dreamweaver so I picked Clear_Skin_1.swf),
5. called up the url in several browsers: IE 6.0.2, IE 7, Firefox 2.0 - all with same result: blank white screen.
Any ideas/suggestions will be much appreciated by me - and probably others here too. Tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this!
Best,
Steve
Show / Hide Movies
Hi there,
I've created a movie clip that will act as a corsor, and when a key is pressed it will show and hide, between two movie clips. The two clips have instance variables setup - castle_in and castle_out.
Also, can i make it so it's binded to a letter-key for instance, rather than the mouse as it is right now?
This is my code but it only works after one press:
Code:
_root.castle_out._visible = false;
_root.castle_in._visible = true;
_root.spotter.onPress = function() {
if (_root.castle_out._visible=true) {
_root.castle_in._visible = true;
_root.castle_out._visible = false;
}
if (_root.castle_in._visible=true) {
_root.castle_in._visible = false;
_root.castle_out._visible = true;
}
};
Any help will be helpful thanks,

Flash "elements" Occasionally Do Not Show-up In Flash Player
i am using Flash Professional 8 and publishing for FP8. I have multiple Flash files that contain a variety of "elements' such as movieclips, text fields, text, graphics, graphic elements (.jpgs, .pngs, .swfs, etc...). About 10% of the time, when my Flash movie loads, some of these elements do not show up in the Flash player, e.g., i'll have a Flash file that contains some text, a few imported .pngs, etc., and when it is viewed in a browser, sometimes, a graphic of a car will not show up, or a few lines of text are gone. when i refresh the files pretty much always appear, but this is extremely frustrating when you are showing something to a client, or just in general.
any ideas why this might be happening? different browsers, different computers.

Rolloves - Hide And Show Movies
Here's a link to what will be a navigation bar.
http://users.rcn.com/rmkerr/long%20head.html
I still need to add invisible buttons behind the text so it rollsover nice
Heres a link to the animation I would like to occer when one rolls over a link. In this case the first link.
http://users.rcn.com/rmkerr/long%20headover.html
What I belive i need to occur is: I need, upon a rollover, for the buttons to be hidden and the movie clip with the animation to load in over it. The individual movie clip will have a button within it with the same link, an html page. I also need for the animation movie to unload if a user rolls out, and for the original buttons to be visible again.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Movies Won't Show Up, But Everything Code-wise Is Right
I've got a code that works just fine for loading external jpgs into movies in a scrollpane when used like this:
Code:
_root.scrollpane_sp.contentPath = "movieclipbox_mc" //Movieclipbox_mc is the linkage id of an empty movieclip in the library.
//Set up the MovieClipLoader listener.
var myLoader:MovieClipLoader= new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object= new Object();
myListener.onLoadInit = function(mc){
_root.scrollpane_sp.invalidate();
trace("Scrollpane redrawn.");
}
myLoader.addListener(myListener);
//Load jpgs into newly created movies in movieclipbox_mc (instance name of spContentHolder) with MovieClipLoader.
myLoader.loadClip("file:////lee6/ltjones%24/Achievements/1%20Web%20Updates/Testing/FrontPageImages%20ColorChange/lezimages/fairy.jpg", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("fairymovie_mc", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.getNextHighestDepth()));
myLoader.loadClip("file:////lee6/ltjones%24/Achievements/1%20Web%20Updates/Testing/FrontPageImages%20ColorChange/lezimages/stainedf.jpg", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("stainedfmovie_mc", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.getNextHighestDepth()));
scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder["stainedfmovie_mc"]._x = 250;
myLoader.loadClip("file:////lee6/ltjones%24/Achievements/1%20Web%20Updates/Testing/FrontPageImages%20ColorChange/lezimages/stainedf.jpg", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("stainedfmovie_mc2", scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.getNextHighestDepth()));
scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.stainedfmovie_mc2._y = 300;
But when I modify this code to make it into a formula that grabs a list of images off an .asp page and loads each one into a movie in the scrollpane, the movies won't show up!, even though the scrollpane resizes itself as if they are there. They aren't selectable either, and they should be with this code. Anyone see some common mistake I'm making here? (Hopefully!)
Code:
cacheKill = new Data().getTime();
trace(cacheKill);
myVars = new LoadVars();
myVars.load("http://development.MYSITE.com/testing/homepageimages-testing/new-images-list.asp?"+cacheKill);
myVars.onLoad = function(){
trace(myVars.images_list);
image_array = myVars.images_list.split(",");
_root.image_array_length = image_array.length - 1;
trace (image_array.length);
loadPics();
}
stop();
_root.scrollpane_sp.contentPath = "movieclipbox_mc"
//Set up the MovieClipLoader listener.
var myLoader:MovieClipLoader= new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object= new Object();
myListener.onLoadInit = function(mc){
_root.scrollpane_sp.invalidate();
trace("SP redrawn for image" + i);
}
myLoader.addListener(myListener);
//Load jpgs into newly created movies in movieclipbox_mc (instance name of spContentHolder) with MovieClipLoader.
function loadPics(){
for (i=0; i<= _root.image_array_length - 1 ; i++){
myLoader.loadClip("http://development.MYSITE.com/testing/homepageimages-testing/images/new-images/" + image_array[i]+"?cb=11", this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("image" + i, this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder.getNextHighestDepth()));
//Image positioning.
myY = Math.floor(i/5);
myX = Math.floor(i%5);
trace("image"+i+" myY="+myY+" myX="+myX);
this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder["image"+i]._y = 344+46*myY;
this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder["image"+i]._x = 32+90*myX;
//Image dimesions.
this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder["image"+i]._yscale = 20;
this.scrollpane_sp.spContentHolder["image"+i]._xscale = 20;
}
}
//Default code.
myListener.onLoadComplete = function(targetMC){
targetMC.onPress = function() {
photoName = targetMC._name;
trace("photoname="+photoName);
photoName = photoName.slice(5);
cont.autoLoad = false;
cont.contentPath = "http://development.MYSITE.com/testing/homepageimages-testing/images/new-images/" + image_array[photoName];

Flash 6 Movies On Flash Player 7
Hi all,
I apologize if this issue has already been addressed...but I searched around here for a while and didn't find the answer...
I am wondering if you will get all the speed benefits of the new Flash Player 7 if you still export movies in FP6 format.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Forcing Certain Areas Of Movies To Zoom Out (show All)
I have a game where I'm making each frame a level, and one level you can zoom in as the menu appears, the next level the menu will not be available, and if they are still zoomed in they will be screwed.
How do I make a frame of a movie zoom out or show all of the frame upon entering it?
Thanks all.

FLV Player Doesn't Show Up
Hi,
Im sorry guys for duplicating posts but this is the general
question about my issue.
Well, here is a short FLV file I recorded for you to
see what my problem is about. Don't laugh about my
english - im not english and I know it sucks.
Sometimes is better to show you that way what's going on
then writing.. about it.
There is my loader html:
http://republika.pl/mrlame/my_movie.html
OK there is my FLV:
http://republika.pl/mrlame/my_movie.flv
Here is my FLA file
http://republika.pl/mrlame/my_movie.fla
On this FLV i chose the last skin (flv player)
and as you can see it doesn't show up.
When I choose the one which is placed inside my FLV movie area
it does show up as well.
I don't really know what could be wrong.
Please advice.
Second thing I want to learn is.
How to create your own FLV player?
- my own graphic buttons etc.
- any sersious tutorials?
Thanks

COuld Someone Please Show Me How To Determine An External Loaded Movies Frame Number?
HI,
I would be most greatful if someone could assist me with my problem here, my project cannot progress until i have resolved it - and i have been searching and searching for an answer.
To most, this question will seem basic probs, but to me... i havent grased the ideas yet.
I am using a loader component, instance named 'loader' to load in an external swf, called 'mc_1'.
I can load it in fine, and even have a progress bar - but my plight is two fold.
Firstly, and the most important - i want another event to trigger at the end of when the loaded movie has 'played' - and i do not know how to determine when the loaded movie has reached the ends of its internal timeline. PLease could someone assist me. I tried using the currentframe command attached to the 'loader', i.e. loader.currentframe - but when i do a trace it keeps saying that the frame is '1'. My logic is telling me, thats because in affect, the loader component im using does only have 1 frame - its actually the loaded in movie that contains the frames. So how do i actually access the frame number of the movie loaded into the loader component (man.. sorry if i repeated myself there a bit - im finding this quite difficult to explain)
Also... when a movie has loaded in using the loader component, how do i only get it to play when i require
I would be most greatful if someone could spend a little time here and help me
Thanks

Modify Mp3 Player To Show Weblinks
Hello, to everyone
I have this dynamic mp3 player that was sent to me from a previous post. I tried contacting the creator about this but no respond. I want to modify the mp3 player to show one more piece of info. The url. The reason why is because the authors of the music want to be credited by showing their information mostly their website. how do i go along doing this. I cant include the file since it's too big, If anything go to http://www.flashmatics.co.uk/ the mp3 player is in the downloads section. It might be called the library
I Want To Show My Videos With A Player Like On You Tube, But How?
Where is the best place to begin looking? I want to (if possible) be able to design my own skin for the player and then convert my avi mpgs or wmv's etc into FLV files to play inside the player. Just like on youtube.
Does anyone know of any online tutorials or free downloads that might be able to help me here?
Thankyou

Hide/show Dynamically Loaded Mp3 Player
I am trying to put a mp3 player on a website similar to how http://inqmnd.ca/ has in the top right corner.
I have the mp3 player movie loading dynamically into an empty movie clip on the stage of the main movie on load. When you click the speaker icon i want it to pop out and display controllers and track name. I have all this working but I can not figure out the best way to keep playing the song if you click the speaker to hide the controllers and track name.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steph

Flash Uses XML File To Show Pics - Can I Randomize The Show Order?
I'm playing around with a flash template at the moment which uses an external XML file to display pictures in a flash frame. The file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- <images>
- <pic>
<image>home/jpg/image6.jpg</image>
<myURL>http://www.yahoo.com</myURL>
</pic>
- <pic>
<image>home/jpg/image5.jpg</image>
<myURL>http://www.google.com</myURL>
</pic>
- <pic>
<image>home/jpg/image1.jpg</image>
<myURL>http://www.lycos.com</myURL>
</pic>
</images>
So in this case the site displays image6, then image5, then image1 - Can I do something to the XML to make them display in a random order instead of the list order?
Thanks

Many thanks and thanks in advanced for any help given.
Multiple Movies In One Player
I have gone through numerous tuts on flash vid and I am just sttill lost.
I have 4 windows media files that I want to insert into a small flash player and allow the user to select which video to play as he chooses. Also - I would like one to load and play by default. I would rather the others not actually load until they are activated by the user.
It seems simple bu I am lost.
The first problem I am having is getting the wmv files into something usable. If I simply import the video - it supposedly encodes them but when played they are merely white screens.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

Urgent Help: How To Remove The Accumaltion When Show Movies Step By Step With Buttons
I want to show the movie step by step by clicking the next button. Inside each frame, many movie clips are generated dynamically at runtime, and they can be played interactively.
I achieves the step-by-step display of those frames by adding another layer with the action stop(). But I got one trouble: all the movie clips from previous frames are accumalted. How to remove the accumulation from previous frames?
For the continuous display of the movie, I tried to use onEnterFrame() and change the _visible property of all the movie clips to false in this function. But it doesn't work for the step-by-step display. Once I click the next button, the movie clips at the current frame just show very quickly, then disappear. What should I do?
I need to fix this immediately.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
