Can't get movie clip to play on Mp3 player
I have a Coby mP3 player that works well with Mac, except movie clips must be in MTV to work. I have a Quicktime movie clip off the internet, i want to put on the Mp3 player, if possible. Any way to convert the movie so it functions??
Thanks
taffers is right, especially since I have never heard of "MTV Format," so if this is a real thing, it is probably a proprietary Coby standard.

I have a Flash movie that plays a movie clip called DR1 at
frame 113 using this code:
DR1.play();
There is nothing else going on in the movie for the length of
the clip, but when I play the movie, the clip does not play - I
just have a blank screen for those frames.
Also, if I try dragging an instance of the movie onto the
timeline at that point, the same thing happens - blank screen for
the amount of frames that the clip is present.
If I play the clip in the library it plays correctly.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
BethOK - I realize now that I have to actually publish the movie
to have the clip play, whether by dragging an instance onto the
timeline or loading it via AS.
Now I have another issue. I'm sorry if these are stupid
questions, but I have a hard time finding things in the help file -
maybe I'm too much of a new Flash user to understand what to look
for!
Anyway, when I play the movie, I have three problems:
1) the clip starts playing immediately, even though I don't
issue the play() command until the middle of the movie. I do the
attachMovie in the first frame so that it has loaded by the time I
want to play it, but it starts playing right away even though I
don't tell it to play.
2) the clip seems to be centered on the upper left corner of
the screen when it plays. I have tried setting the _x and _y
properties of the instance to 0,0 but that doesn't seem to make a
difference. I want the clip to be centered on the screen (it is
sized to take up the whole stage) but can't seem to move it no
matter what values I plug into the _x and _y properties.
3) the clip loops continuously. I only want it to play once
but can't seem to find a property to control the looping.
Here is the code in the first frame:
var mc1:MovieClip;
mc1 = this.createEmptyMovieClip("DR1",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.attachMovie("DR1", "mc1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc1._x = 500;
mc1._y = 500;
mc1.stop(); (this was added to get it to not play until
later, to no avail)
And the code at frame 113:
mc1.play();
And finally at frame 412:
mc1.stop();
Help, please!
Thanks,

Can I include movie clips be played in the LR4's Slideshow module?
Hi, I'am just starting to learn about LR's SlideShow module. I recently returned from a vacation in eastern Europe and want to create a slideshow of my best pictures and short movie clips. The slideshow is mostly still photography, but I also want to play a few of the clips shot in movie mode and play these clips inside the slideshow. Is this possible in LR4's Slideshow module?
No, unfortunately that is not possible in this version.
Other people have felt the same need though: you can support this by adding your vote in the feature request forum

How can I get video clips to play in a browser?
Scenario: A client visits my Web site. A shockwave movie plays automatically. It contains a video clip. When the SW movie encounters the frame containing the movie clip, it simply skips over it and continues. The video never plays. I have tried avi, windows media, mpeg and quicktime with the same results.
I have found that the video plays fine as long as I open the director movie with Director. But when I open it with a browser, the video clip does not play. I have tried Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers.
Does someone know what I am missing to make the video play in a browswer?
Thanks.
DeweyWhen the SW movie encounters the frame containing the movie clip, it simply skips over it and continues. The video never plays.
Presumably you have code to stop the playhead from moving while the video plays? You might want to post it.
If you are testing this locally, you need a folder named "dswmedia" somewhere in the path or linked content, like your video file, won't be found. Check the docs for more details. -
Can't get nested movie clip to play
Hi everyone,
I have a movieclip on one of the frames on the maintimeline.
Within this movieclip is a nested movieclip which itself is
contained by another clip. The first movie clip plays to a certain
frame where I've got some code telling the nested movie clip to
play at that frame but this nested clip doesn't play. I'm not sure
if I'm targetting the nested clip incorrectly or whether something
else is wrong with the code.
The .fla file can be downloaded at:
http://www.officelinkonline.com.au/Ad/
if someone would take a look. The movie clip in question is
on the layer called text5, and within this mc on frame 15 is the
code I'm trying to use to get the nested movieclip to play at that
point. The code used on that frame is:
this.innerText5_mc.free_mc.play();
stop();
pauseAnim = setInterval (this, "nextFrame", 4000);
I wondered if someone could take a look and see what I might
be doing wrong? Basically the free_mc clip just makes the word
"FREE" scale up.
Would really appreciated any advice.
ThanksThanks again. I'm a bit worried that you weren't able to see
the font that I used. All of the text used in the animations are
static text fields. I don't seem to have the option to embed these
characters since it's static text. It'll only let me embed if the
text fields are dynamic. Does this mean I have to change them all
to dynamic text fields, and if so do I need to embed the font in
every text field in every frame of the animation or can you do this
in one place?
Appreciate your continued help. -
How do I get a movie clip to play fully in an iphoto slide show.
How do I get a movie clip to play fully in an iphoto slideshow. Right now it only plays for a few seconds, while the complete clip is 22 seconds.
Bring up the Settings pane for the slideshow and click on the movie clip in the tray at the top. Then in the Settings pane click on This Slide button and set the play time to the actual length of the movie clip.

*Class Project - Please help: Why does my movie clip keep playing over and over?
I am desperate for help on this one as its my Final Flash
class project and I just can't get my scenes/movie clips to play in
the order I want them to.
I have Scene 1 (movie clip 1) that plays and then Scene 2
(movie clip 2) plays. The problem is that Scene 2 (or movie clip 2)
repeats itself over and over again. I can't get it to go back to
Scene 1 (movie clip 1) to play that again.
I want it go to to this Scene 1 and actually start at a
certain frame to continue on with the story.
I have named my movie clip instances.
What am I doing wrong? I went into movie clip 2, into
actions, and movie clip control, and I don't really see a way to
tell it to go back and play movie clip 1. Trying to see how to
refer back to the instance name of the movie clip and get it to
play.
Ideas? Please please? I would be forever greatful.

As Nickels55 said, above, scenes add unnecessary complexity.
So the answer to this is: YES. Scenes are awkward in Flash. Never
use them in any final project. Put everything on a single timeline
in a single scene, and you will have much better control of the
project. -
How can I get a song to play automatically on a web page ? iWeb 1.1.2
Can I get a song to play automatically when my web page opens? iWeb 1.1.2
As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

I would like a movie clip to play repeat itself everytime a button is pressed
Hello,
I am new to actionscripting but not Flash, I am using Flash
MX 2004 for a college project at the moment. I have created an
interface which features four buttons, each button activates a
different movie clip. This works fine but only on the first time to
press the button if you press the button again the movie clip does
not play again, I would like the movie clip to play EVERY time the
button is pressed. Here is the script that I have created in a
seperate layer called actions, if that helps:
ellaimage._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
pellabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = true
textboxmc._visible = true
Pellaimage._visible = true;
Pellaimage.gotoAndplay(1)}
Betabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = true
Betabox._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Betaimage.gotoAndplay (1) }
Yakuzabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Yakuzapic._visible = true
Yakuzapic.gotoAndplay (1) }
Pornobutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = true
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Pornopic.gotoAndplay (1) }
// this command stops the timeline
stop ();
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advanceNo that doesn't work, that isn't what I want to to be
repeated.
In the below script I want textboxmc (which is a movie clip)
to restart and play again everytime pellabutton is released.
pellabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = true
textboxmc._visible = true
Pellaimage._visible = true;
Pellaimage.gotoAndplay(1)}

How can I get an album to play in order on Itunes? The songs keep skipping all around to other albums that I did not want to listen to at that time?
It sounds like you might have the shuffle button at the bottom left of the iTunes (the button with the squiggly lines).
If that's not the case, then maybe you just need to sort your library by album by clicking the album tab at the top.
Is your music in a playlist, or are you trying to play it from the entire library? -

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

I have an I phone 3g and I downloaded the newest software and I can't get any music to play. I can't change my playlists and the songs I have on the phone just get skipped over. What can I do to correct this?
it recognizes the iPOD but I can't get any of the new songs to import to the iPOD
are you getting an error message, Odessa? if so, what does it say? include error message numbers if you're getting any.
if you're not getting an error message, describe what happens when you try to transfer songs to the ipod as best you can.
