Flash :: Start A Song Half Way Through

GMG Audio Player: How Can I Make The Next Song Start Playing Automatically?
I've recently used the following tutorial to create an audio player.
http://www.gmg.com.au/assets/tutorials/flash-mx-audio/

Everything works great, I'm very happy with it. But, another feature that I'd like to add is for it to automatically start playing another audio file (not randomly) when each audio file ends.

The idea behind what I created is as follows, straight from the tutorial:

Quote:

And repeating all that once again for good luck:

http://www.gmg.com.au/assets/tutoria...-structure.gif

From left to right: we have a media-controller SWF file sharing out our controls to a second SWF file that has our audio media in it which is loaded and displayed by a third SWF file. Get it? Got it! Good.

So, in essence, what I need to do, but am unable to figure out, is to have the end of the audio file in the second SWF trigger the third SWF to gotoAndStop to a specific frame. I'm not sure what code to use, or where to put it.

Please take time to look through the tutorial, as I followed it to a "T":
At very least please view this page in order to get a better idea of how my player is structurally created:

Load 2nd Half, Whilst 1st Half Plays
I have a flash website that has2 scenes and is 800kb in total. It plays the splash movie, then goes to the website.

Before it does anything though, It gives you a loading bar, showing the percentage loaded of the 800kb.

Is there a way for it to only load the splash movie (400kb), and while that is playing, load the rest of the website?

Rewind, Pause, And Start Start Buttons For Base Movie And External Mov

I'm lost...

I have a base movie that contains three buttons (Rewind, Pause, and Start)

The code for the rewind button that sends the base movie to frame 2 which is set to play and then reloads the external movie (images/4_24.swf). works perfectly and is shown below.

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
on (release){
    function test(){
    _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container",25);
    loadMovie("images/4_24.swf", "container");
    container._x=15;
    container._y = 95;
}
test();}

My question is does any one know how to now pause both the base and external movie with the pause button and then start both movies again with the start button????  Some how I need to control both movies with these three buttons.

Code for play button is ---
on (release) {
play();
}

Code for pause button is ---
on (release) {
stop();
}

Thank you MJR

Start And Stop Streaming Sounds (start Stopping Currently Playing)
Hi there

I am novice user of flash and have no real AS experience.

What I want to do is..

I have 18 songs from an album and have taken 30 sec from each and down sampled them ready for flash.

I want to be able preview them all from one flash file.
I will be streaming the songs in, so the initial download time is minimal.

With 18 start stop buttons for each one, but because customers are lazy, they are likely just going to click the next play button for the next preview, so I need the play buttons to stop 'this' preview before playing the next with stop control also being a stop control for those who have had enough or are well behaved browsers : )

I hope this makes sense and look forward to hearing from someone.

Cheers

FLV Start Time? Can I Start It Playing 2 Secs In?
Is there a way with actionscript to tell an FLV to start playing 2 seconds into the video. What I have is an FLV that has 2 seconds of black at the beginning, but I don't want that to play.

Or if anyone knows a way to re-encode an flv so that I can get rid of the 1st 2 seconds. I've tried re-encoding it with Riva Encoder but it just gets all screwed up. And the Flash encoder won't even let me add it to the que. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Half Way There But Need Some Help
I am attempting to make a menu similar to dunun.com's menu functionality in that my little slider sticks to the buttons that it rolls under.
so far, my slider just follows the mouse as you see here:
http://iconblue.com/temp/menu.swf

can you help me make it stick?

here's my code so far:
///////////////////////
onClipEvent(load){
leftBoundary = 130;
rightBoundary = 355;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_parent._xmouse < (leftBoundary + 5)){

Half Way, But Not Yet There
Hi guys,

it's been a while since I used AS.
I am trying to achieve a very simple effect. I want to drag something when I click on the object with my mouse ( startDrag). The object should follow my mouse with a delay. The object should only follow when the mousebutton is clicked.

I managed it the object to follow my cursor ALL the time with this AS:

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x += (_parent._xmouse-_x)*.2;
_y += (_parent._ymouse-_y)*.2;
}

Can somebody help me achieving this effect? ( follow mouse when mouse is clicked)

Half Preloader
I made a preloader using the FK tutorial:

(referring to the bar MC)
setProperty(this, _xscale, (_root.getBytesLoaded() / _root.getBytesTotal()) * 100);

I put it in "preloader" scene. But when I try it on-line, the bar happears only when the movie is half downloaded and then goes on normally.
The whole scene is 118Kb and I have a mp3 49Kb in my scene. Maybe it is the first file downloaded and once finished the bar shows up!? What do you think?

Got It Working Half Way. Need Some Help
I been playing around with loading movies into movies etc. I am trying to make a swf movie open right when I open the main swf. I can make it load no problem but would like to make it load into a certain empty movie clip as I have stuff on the first frame I want shown. If this loads the movie

loadMovieNum("Main Movie.swf", 0);

Then how do i direct it to my emtpy movie clip so it comes up smaller upon loading. I tried _root.Emptymovie. loadMovieNum(Main Movie.swf, 0}:
But had no luck.

I am sssigning this code to an empty keyframe.

Var Only Half Working?
Hi

I have this script:

PHP Code:

var panelPresed:Boolean = true;

panel1.onPress = function() {
    if (panelPresed == true) {
        panel1.swapDepths(10000);
        panel1.gotoAndPlay("grow");
        panelPresed = false;
    } else {
        panel1.gotoAndStop(1);
        panelPresed = true;
    }
};

panel2.onPress = function() {
    if (panelPresed == true) {
        panel2.swapDepths(10000);
        panel2.gotoAndPlay("grow");
        panelPressed = false;
    } else {
        panel2.gotoAndStop(1);
        panelPresed = true;
    }
};

panel3.onPress = function() {
    if (panelPresed == true) {
        panel3.swapDepths(10000);
        panel3.gotoAndPlay("grow");
        panelPressed = false;
    } else {
        panel3.gotoAndStop(1);
        panelPresed = true;
    }
};

panel4.onPress = function() {
    if (panelPresed == true) {
        panel4.swapDepths(10000);
        panel4.gotoAndPlay("grow");
        panelPressed = false;
    } else {
        panel4.gotoAndStop(1);
        panelPresed = true;
    }
};

I just cant figure out why the "else" statement on the "panel1" bit works fine.
But it doesn't on the "panel2" and "panel3" and "panel4" scripts.

Am I being dumb and missing something here?

Thanks for any help.

Half An If Statment?
this ones odd..
i have a load of functions inside of a button on press action, but i only want to make them work the first time the buttons been pressed.. so i add a variable and an if statement to the onRelease function.. easy enough, cept for some reason it only get up to the first tween then does nothing. diddly squat. just kinda sits there and nothing else works cept for some of the button animations.. heres the code fer one of the buttons:

home.onPress = function() {
if (_global.finished == true) { <----this is the statement thats giving the greif
new Tween(cont_mc.cont, "_alpha", Regular.easeOut, 100, 0, 12, false);
away = setInterval(awayer, 700); <-------coz it doesn't get past here
closed = setInterval(closer, 10);
function awayer() {
if (cont_mc.cont._alpha<=0) {
new Tween(cont_mc, "_yscale", Regular.easeOut, 100, 0, 12, false);
clearInterval(away);
}
}
function closer() {
if (cont_mc._yscale<=0) {
clearInterval(closed);
gotoAndStop(1);
}
}
services.enabled = true;
prices.enabled = true;
example.enabled = true;
test.enabled = true;
home.enabled = false;
_global.finished = false;
}
};

there are a few other bugs i am aware of but right now i'm only really intrested in this if thing, however any thoughts would be appriciated highly.
cheers!!

Here's A Longwinded Question And A Half
havin looked at a topic a few threads down I decided to experiment, but there was a problem.
I have an mc 'MC1'
in MC1 i have a graphic and a invisible button 'BUTTON1'

the code on MC1 is as follows

Code:

onClipEvent (load) {
_root.target1 = 100;
// initialise _xscale.
friction = .7;
ratio = .8;
speed = 5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.target1 != this._xscale) {
speed = (speed*friction)+(_root.target1-this._xscale)*ratio;
this._xscale += speed;
this._yscale += speed;
}
}
inside MC1 on the button BUTTON1 there is the following code

Code:

on (rollOver) {
_root.target1 = 200;
}

on (rollOut) {
_root.target1 = 100;
}
this two code combined provide elasticity for the graphic in MC1 on(rollOver) and on(rollOut)

but when i add the following to the code on BUTTON1 to make the main timeline goto the nextFrame() on(press)...

Code:

on (press) {
if (_root._currentFrame == 104) {
_root.nextFrame();
}
}
to make it

Code:

on (rollOver) {
_root.target1 = 200;
}
on (rollOut) {
_root.target1 = 100;
}
on (press) {
if (_root._currentFrame == 104) {
_root.nextFrame();
}
}
...the elasticity function still works but the nextFrame scipt does not.

I was wondering if someone would be able to tell me why, and then provide a possible solution for me

OK, I've Got Half Of The Problem Solved...
With a lot of help from others here, I've been able to get a NEW window to open to a specified size from within a Flash movie! Cool....it took me a while, but I got it. Now I see how easy it is. THANKS for the help.

The problem is when I try to get the ORIGINAL window to open to a specific size. My goal is to be able to send a link (or the URL for those with non HTML enabled e-mail) that will open my Flash movie in a browser to a size I specify, not to a full size window or whatever the end user has set as their default.

I've looked all over the place and all I can find are tutes on opening a new window once already in a Flash movie.

How do I do this get the original window to open as I wish?

Thanks

Game Locks Up Half Way Through?
I wrote a trivia game in flash, based loosely on the format of the television show, "who wants to be a millionaire". There are 15 levels to get through to beat the game. The lower levels have easy questions. Because of that, I wanted to be able to use multiple questions and have them chosen at random. I did that by creating a start scene for each level that chose (randomly) from a number of scenes, each containting a trivia quesiton. I used gotoAndplay (random ( 12 )).

Anyway, because there are 63 question scenes in the game (even though there are only 15 levels) the game has nearly 200 scenes. The FLA file is over 4MB, but the game export/publishes down to 308Kb. The bug is that when you get to the first frame in level7, it freezes. I don't know why, except that it seems to have something to do with the fact that that is one of the first scenes aproximately past the half-way point in the flash game. I tested that theory by changing all the buttons at the end of level6 to go to level8 instead of level7, and the game locked up at the first frame of level8. I further proved that the flash game was locking up anywhere past the half-way point when I simply changed the intro scene to forward to the final scene in the game, and it locked up on the first frame of the final scene.

You can view the game here:

http://www.zenhex.com/secret_agent.htm

Keep in mind one bug that I have already fixed. The version of the game that you can view at the address above had a different bug. I didn't understand the random ( ## ) command, and I had put a gotoAndplay (random ( 30 )) on frame 18 not realizing that it could pick anyframe from 1 to 30. At first I thought it would pick any frame after 18. So that is why some of the level change scenes seem to loop. I fixed that bug and it had nothing to do with the fact that the game freezes anywhere past the midway point.

Half-Loaded... Page, That Is.
Very much a newbie, here. Have 3DFA and have mastered most of what it can do, but am having repetitive troubles making the animation work in AOL's FTP space. I'm a complete html bimbo, but the program helps me out in that respect by creating the html for me. I can't, however, figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I uploaded the .swf file and the .html file into my FTP space, and according to instruction that's all that's required. When I try to access the page, it stops loading at about halfway. I'm able to see my background color, but no animation.

If someone could be of any help to me in regard to this problem, I'd appreciate it.

Preload Half My Bytes

if (_parent.getBytesTotal()/2 == _parent.getBytesLoaded()) {
_parent.gotoAndPlay(2);

AS Only Works Half The Time - Bug?
I have some buttons that change all of the colours of the interface. But there is one clip that only changes colour some of the time.

It's really starting to annoy me as there is no logical reason for it. Take a look here - the clip that changes color sporadically is the highlight on the angled-off corner of the button-down state.

http://www.psychonauts.info/tests/home.htm

Try changing the colours and then pressing the different navigation buttons to see what I mean...crazy...!

Also - while I'm here - I noticed that sometimes Flash wont let me give a clip an instance name...I have to reference such a clip like:

_root.menu.instance2

This is really bad as when you alter things, it sometimes changes all the instance numbers! No amount of typing in the instance name (even pressing ENTER!) succeeds in naming the clip.

Has anyone else had similar problems?

Creating A Half-radio
Gentlemen, most of you know Flash MX like the back of your hands so I'm sure you won't mind me asking a few questions.

I'm looking to create a radio guide website, and a feature I want is a sort of old radio frequency tuner, where the user can select a band 90-92 etc, I want to do this in flash. I have the graphics done in fireworks but its not the effect I want. I would like it if when the user scrolls upon the tuner, the red locator that would generally be scrolled to the band move with the cursor along a line. I would also want each segment to be linked to the appropriate page.

I will attach an image of what I mean. Ideas and tutorials much appreciated.

BTW: Goodradio is but a beta name

Best Regards,

the only problem is that when i put in html Code in the *.txt file it doesnt work in the flash movie.. it only shows the text and the code i typed... i'm only usign basic code like underline and bold , text colour etc..

i have checked to make sure that my text box is makred with 'render as html' but it just wont work

anyway i have been using this script to load the text

loadVarsText = new loadVars();
loadVarsText.load("YFCampsText.txt");
loadVarsText.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
YFCampstext.text = this.YFCampsText;
}
};

To The Nearest Half Metre
Hi, I am trying to do this efficienty - but I keep over complexifying things.

I have a room area calculator that returns a value in cm2.

I am trying to convert it to the nearest half metre.

For example.

8.55m2 will become 8.50m2

156.84m2 will become 157.00m2

101.12m2 will become 101.00m2

I've been up for a very long time and its now 2.23am in the uk.

But, I cannot turn in till this is done.

Any suggestions - I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

Swf Half Off Wondow In Netscape
Hi all,
Woking on an intro consisting of an index.swf which loads either ...girl.swf or ...boy.swf randomly. The trouble I'm having only appears in Netscape (I've only checked in 7), PC and Mac. The index.swf is embedded in index2.html, and when opened in Netscape the loaded swfs appear quite a bit off the top of the window. Also, the loaded swfs contain some gfx text and a skip intro button which don't appear at all.

When I load the swfs directly into Netscape the ...boy.swf and ...girl.swf appear fine, though full screen or course. The index.swf loads the others properly, but is scaled a bit too large so that the skip intro btn falls off the bottom of the window a bit. Not sure if that's relevent, but thought I'd mention it.

I published and loaded the remaining html files, ...girl and ...boy, and got the same results as with the index2.html file, off the top of the window and missing elements. This has me believing the problem lies in the way the html files are being published, but I can't figure it out.

All files are here:
http://www.slowcocoon.com/fond_intro/
fla.zip has all 3 fla's.
index2.html has the index.swf embedded that should load the others (just called it index2 so you can see the directory).

I've tried to explain the best I can, but if you check it out in IE you can see how it should look. You will get an error at the end, as I have moved the directory to a public area and the getURL is no longer valid, but I am aware of this.

Thanks to anyone who can help, and by the way I'm pretty knew to this so simple explainations are appreciated.

Help Half The Text Has Disappeared.
http://www.familia-uk.com/

The text boxes are cut in half down lenghtways and only the left half of the text shows up on my computer.

Please can someone help. Has anyone ever seen this happen before? It happens as soon as I even test the movie. It's just a dynamic text box for the sake of displaying the font, with no link to any external text files. Nothing is set to bold or any other formatting. No other layers, just blue set as background colour.... No AS either....

Is my Flash application corrupt?

My preloader doens't seeem to load the main image (flyer) either.... even though I've used the same preloader loads of times on other sites.

Anyway, I would be so grateful for any help at all, you guys have saved my life before.

Stylesheets Works Only Half
Hi,

I load this simple external stylesheet:
A:ACTIVE{
color: #FF9900;
text-decoration : underline;
}
A:HOVER{
color: #FF9900;
text-decoration : underline;
}
A:LINK{
color: #0066CC;
text-decoration : none;
}
A:VISITED {
color: #CCCCCC;
text-decoration : none;
}

It is loaded but the text decoration and visited link color don't work.
The text is supplied dynamicly like this:
var links = "<a href="http://www.numuseum.nl" target="_blank">link1</a> <a href='http://www.ns.nl' target='_blank'>link2</a>";

Does anyone have an idea why this doesn't work? Thanks very much in advance, Danielle.
