Accessing movie clip from flash swf file

I have the situation where in flash i created a simple
animated movie clip with few stop() commands on timeline. Movie
clip consists of simple animatio played on roll over and on roll
out which is controlled using actionscript. I loaded movie clip
into flash using [embed] tag but actionscript code is stripped,
there is no stop() action so movie clip loops continously. I guess
that's normal behaviour for embedded flash swf files but i would
like to know is there a way to still achieve that? Can i load swf
some other way with its actionscript and then control movie clip
from flex?

You need the FLA's to open in Flash.
You could download the free trial of a flash decompiler
(www.sothink.com). The free trial won't give you actionscript, but
it will give you all of the art in the swf.

  • LocalConnection: Receiving message from flash(.swf) file

    hi
    I have got a flash radio file (.swf) from third party which playes the songs. I need to integrate this inside my application.Application is portal and written in asp.net which launches this flash file as pop-up

    where title is string, thumb is image and albumtitle is string

  • Trouble Copying and pasting a movie clip from another flash scene

    Hello,
    I have been trying to copy a movie clip from the library of one flash and paste it into the library of another.  But when I do this, it always gives me, "One or more library items already exist in the document.
    I have tried finding and renaming those items, renaming the existing movie clip, and even changing it into a graphic instead.  Still it always replaces these certain movie clips in my main flash file.
    I even tried the following:
    Creating a new movie clip in the new file.  Then going into the movie clip of the other file I wish to copy over, and trying to copy its frames and put it into the new movie clip i created in the main file.  Even then, it says I'm replacing library items!
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks

    The easiest way to be sure you are renaming everything is to probably to copy the movieclip into a new empty file's library and then rename each symbol in there.  Unless I am missing something, when you do that, each isolatable symbol inside that movieclip will appear as a separate symbol in the library, making it easier to be sure you have renamed them all.

  • HT2518 I am trying to move across & view my home movie clips from my PC to Mac, but I can't view them.  What do I need to have installed on the MAC to view such files? (Originally put onto the MAC from a Canon video camera)

    I am trying to move across & view my home movie clips from my old PC to my new Mac but I am unsure what software I need to view them.  They are from a Canon video camera originally.  Please advise how this is done!

    Do they have a file extension?
    How about anything on the camera which might indicate what it is, like AVCHD?

  • How do I stop a movie clip from looping

    I am using Action Script 3 and the 'stop()' function is not working to stop my movie clips from looping continuously.
    I have added the 'stop()' function to the last frame on the timeline of each movie clip.
    I originally built the .fla file in Flash CS6 using Action Script 2 where it was working with no problems (I have since upgraded and don't have access to CS6 anymore).
    I have all the separate movie clips positioned on Frame 1 of my main stage with the following script to start them playing:
    Cigarette_Reveal.play();
    KickTheHabit.play();
    BallMove.play();
    BallFlip.play();
    Offer.play();
    I want each of these movie clips to stop playing after one animation sequence is complete.
    Please help!

    Turn on strict mode in your publish settings. This will allow you to see the compiler errors that are preventing the actionscript in your fla from compiling correctly.

  • Bringing Flash .swf files into Captivate

    Greetings,
    I use Captivate 2.0. I have been trying to bring a Flash .swf
    file into Captivate with very little success. The flash file is
    clickable (so that users can review case study information as they
    complete Try It simulations). When I bring the Flash .swf file into
    Captivate, it works. However, correction (or failure messages)
    display every time the user clicks the Flash .swf file. Is there
    anything that I can do within Captivate to stop this issue?
    Ideally, I would like the Flash .swf to run on top of the Captivate
    file so that users can view the case study details without having
    to see the failure messages.
    Please let me know if you have any questions about this. I
    hope it makes sense to you.

    Hi Zabcde (or PMW or P?)
    Can I just understand (sorry for being thick) your situation.
    You're trying to get a flash movie into a captivate session that
    the user can work on, see, interact with whilst they're also going
    through a Captivate simulation (try it)? Does that mean that slides
    are advancing for the simulation whilst you're watching the flash
    movie? Or are they watching the Flash movie as a kind of help to
    then go and do the Try It session?
    If it's the first, then I would suggest calling the Flash swf
    and the Captivate swf as seperate instances in flash (using
    loadmovienum or something). If it's the second, you should be able
    to remove the failure captions from that slide so they don't bug
    you.
    Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick though
    Cheers

  • URL, email links in Flash swf files shows up in search engine

    Hi, can you please help? I post this problem a while ago.
    My problem is: I developed a website in Flash 8 on the Mac.
    The Flash swf file is displayed via Dreamweaver doc. When I do a
    search and, when the site is found in Google, all the links used in
    the Flash swf file appears in the snippets below the main title. I
    would like to know where I'm going wrong, and how can I prevent
    Google from displaying the URL and email details.
    Do I need to use a preloaded, or do I need to put the Flash
    swf movie file in a table in Dreamwever.
    Many thanks,
    Blue_Mac

    >I don't know how this is happening then. Search engine
    spiders don't
    >read through compiled files like Flash.
    Thanks, this is reassuring. Although it seems to have done
    just that.
    The following action script is where the details are coming
    from. I've used the name 'whatever" as an example. I don't mind the
    URLs on view as much as I mind my email address because of security
    issues.
    on (release) {
    //Goto Webpage Behavior
    getURL("mailto:[email protected]","_blank");
    //End Behavior
    I'll check my files again to see if I've miss anything out -
    I have done this so many times already.
    Regards,
    Blue_Mac

  • How do I transfer movie clips from iPhoto to iPad?

    How do I transfer movie clips from iphoto on my iMac, to my iPad?

    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Problems loading Adobe Flash SWF file

    Our users are experienceing problems loading Adobe Flash SWF
    files.
    One example of a problem file is:
    http://www.adobe.com/enterprise/accessibility/popup_acr8_accessibility.html
    User traffic is flowing through a Cisco ASA firewall - these
    problems do not seem to occur from home networks or a Netscreen
    firewall. The Cisco ASA does NOT have http deep packet inspection
    turned on, and any traffic initiated by clients inside the firewall
    should be allowed. The symptom is that Internet Explorer will begin
    to download the video, but will hang at some point along the way
    (for this particular URL it hangs at about 7%). No error messages
    are displayed, but the video never displays on the screen either. I
    would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have run into this
    before, or if someone can explain what is different about this type
    of file from regular Adobe Flash, that might help figure out what
    the ASA is objecting to. The ASA does not appear to generate any
    log messages about denying this type of traffic either.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

    Thanks, but I use publish/export settings with GPU hardware acceleration and flash version 11.2 (and 11.8) but nothing happening.
    And why gif file is not all transparenty then I insert on lightblue background? It can't export good quality? Also I use Photoshop, After Effects, Adobe Edge Animate. And nothing happening. Egde animate file .oam is not good for old website navigation. It can't be inserted in freeshop site from navigation... I use logo file .oam just for example here - http://e-shoptagras.graphicsrim.eu
    In reality I want swf file, but we don't find why logo flickering? here http://tagraseshop.graphicsrim.eu
    All file's are transparenty - https://mega.co.nz/#!f8B2CD5R!J8uCJt9Sdq4Suz4HLhTHz8bzJcSWXMBIKcKZgkD3z8c

  • Hide movie clip of external swf

    Hi there.
    I have my main.swf and in the second frame i load an external swf called first.swf with this method:
    [AS]var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("myGalleryContainerproducts",5);
    myGalleryContainerproducts._lockroot=true;
    loader.loadClip("first.swf",myGalleryContainerproducts);
    myGalleryContainerproducts._y =86;
    myGalleryContainerproducts._x =50;
    [/AS]
    In first.swf i have two movie clips with instance names ena and dyo
    I want in main.swf in the third frame to hide these movie clips of first.swf  (only the movie clips not the whole .swf) or to move them (change x and y values) so they practically hide.
    Any solutions?
    Thank you in advance

    You will need to wait until the file is loaded to be able to interact with it, so if that might be an issue timing-wise then look into using the addListener method of the MovieClipLoader class.  If the movie is loaded you should be able to access the movieclips within it using the movieclip name you assigned (mygalleryContainerproducts) to target them.

  • How do I move clips from one Event to another?

    How do I move clips from one Event to another?
    As soon as I got the new iMovie, I started importing clips and making video's. Unfortunately, I hadn't fully understood the Events feature, so all of my clips are in a single "New Event" Event. I have now created several other Events and named them properly and would like to sort all of my clips into their proper "Event" folders. How do you do that?

    Ahh, Ok. I actually had to go to Lynda.com to watch a training video of this highly bassackwards maneuver, but now I have it. In other words, while the intuitive thing is to make a new event to hold the clip you want and then open the old event and drag the clip into it's new event, the only way to accomplish this maneuver is to NOT create a new event, but rather, go to the clip AFTER the one you want to move, select it and then Right-Click on it and select SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP (or go to FILE>SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP). Then you wait a few seconds while the program thinks a bit (no feedback it is doing this - just a pause) and then it automatically creates a new event with the clip you wanted. Now just double-click the new event and name it something meaningful.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Flash SWF file within Swing JFrame

    I was wondering whether its possible to open a Flash swf file within a JFrame
    I am looking for a solution similar to the usage of Flash Activex control in .NET
    thanks in advance
    Vikas

    I have read the forum link and other such entries in this forum. I have found the following:
    1.) JFlash - a java based flash player. https://jflash.dev.java.net/
    Could'nt find the app or the official site
    2.) a few projects on sourceforge.org :
    java flash bridge where you embed the flash inside an Integrated Browser Component
    3.) SWT Flash integration.
    I do not find any of these solutions satisfactory.except the SWT/Flash integration which I havent tried.
    My question is that isnt there an easier and simpler way to :
    Embed Flash into Swing app where actionscript and java can communicate.
    I am aware of Remoting and web services. But It is a desktop app I am talking about.
    Can anyone suggest anything?
    thanks in advance..
    from a very frustrated programmer....
