Flash Player v.10 ignores actionscript 2.0 or 3.0 commands.

Hi,
I am using Flash CS3, and have downloaded and installed the latest version 10 flash player from Adobe site.
When I create a new flash document, I select "actionscript 2.0" for the new document.
Having completed the animation when I test the file (Control > Test Movie) the swf file runs from frame 1 till the end ignoring the stop(); and gotoAndPlay(); and all other actionscript commands in between.
So I send the fla file to my friend, he sends me an swf file which obeys all the actionscript commands in the fla file.
The same thing happens if I create a new actionscript 3.0 flash document and make it into an swf file.
Why is this happening ? How do I remedy this.
Thanks, regards,
Deepak Gokhale

Yes, I did manage to get around it but it was by a lot of trial and error, and fluke.
Always open a new flash document as Flash File (Actionscript 3.0) document. You can save it as Flash CS3 Document .fla file or Flash 8 Document .fla file. It works. At least this is what happened to me.
All the best.

Flash Player Detection

I am trying to implement flash player detection using the
Flash Player Detection Kit - the actionscript way ie. using
the 'flash_detection.as' and the 'flash_detection.swf', (not
forgetting the 'update_flash.html' file also! )
I put the swf onto my 'index.html' - it being the first page
that is accessed when anyone goes onto our site - and I altered the
.as file to direct users once they had installed FPlayer8 to a page
called trueindex.html ( which was a copy of index.html without the
flash_detection.swf on it )
All that happened when it had installed flash player 8 was to
keep going back to index.html over and over again!
Because of a desire to sort out flash player detection issues
previously, I had already changed the code on index.html to include
the java script stuff to check for version 8 ( you could look at
the source code on the index page )
I'm just a little clueless as what to do now - my main desire
is to let the un-initiated install the flash player ver8 without
having to restart their PC or do a lot of messing about!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Too small window size in standalone flash player in FLEX

Hello,
I have unchecked the option "generate html wrapper file" so I
don't have to bother about closing the browser tab each time I make
a small change to the code and rerun the application.
This works fine as the standalone flash player closes when I
terminate the application from Flex. However, the standalone flash
player always starts in a fixed window size smaller than my
application size so that I cannot see the whole application. So I
have to enlarge the window size of the standalone flash player each
time which is annoying!
Is there a better solution?
Maybe get Flex to close the browser tab after I terminate the
application. I still prefer to use the standalone flash player
during development as my application doesn't depend on the browser
though.

Right clicking in flash player now brings up pop up menu.

Previously I was able to right click within the flash player while playing a video game, which enabled certain game commands. Now suddenly that functionality has gone away and the settings menu continues to come up every time I try it. The Flash Player is 10.2.152.26. It's a 64 bit computer, brand new. Using Explorer 8. Any thoughts?

I'm having the same problem and it's very annoying when you're trying to play a game where you have to right click to change something.
I've read some old posts on this topic and have tried UNenabling the update but this makes no difference. Is there a solution?
Thanks.

Do you need to use Actionscript 3 code in Flash player 9 and above?

Can anyone tell me if I need to use Actionscript 3 code instead of Actionscript 2 code in the following situation:
I am running a swf file which is contained in a browser window (all files are contained on a CD and I have a 'trust' file set up to let them play properly). Up until now, I have been using the following Actionscript 2 code to close the browser window (the Actionscript 2 code is on an 'Exit' button within the swf):
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:window.close()");
This Actionscript 2 code has always worked and still works in Flash player 8 and lower. However, it does nothing when played using Flash player 9. Can anyone tell me if Flash player 9 won't recognize Actionscript 2 code? Is it essential to use ONLY Actionscript 3 code if you are using Flash player 9?
I am having the same problem when I try to launch another html page containing a swf (popped up from the swf contained in the main html window). I have the following code on the button to launch the popup html window. It always worked, but suddenly no longer works with Flash player 9. Here is the code I am using:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:launchWin2('webpage2.html');");
I have all the necessary background code to launch 'webpage2.html'. It works everywhere except in Flash player 9. Can anyone tell me if it is essential to use Actionscript 3 code ONLY on these buttons in Flash player 9? I am pretty new to Actionscript 3, so any help with syntax would be appreciated.
Please note that I don't want to use the projector.
Thanks!

You can use both AS2 and AS3 based applications in both Flash 9 and 10.

OpenScript ActionScript Error from Adobe Flash Player 9

I get a popup ActionScript Error from Adobe Flash Player 9 when trying to record a Flex Tree object using OpenScript 9.2.1.0 Production. Specifically, I click on the Triangle that opens/closes the view of the child nodes underneath the parent node of a Tree. Initially, the triangle arrow already pointing down and the child node is already showing. When I click on the triangle, the node underneath goes up and disappears under its parent node and the traingle is then pointing to the parent node.
When I click this triangle in Firefox without OpenScript recording, I don't get any errors, popups, or issues. It seems to work correctly. During OpenScript recording, the recording seems to crash with a popup that is titled "Adobe Flash Player 9" and has the text "An ActionScript error has occurred" with the following error message:

I can click "Dismiss All" from the Adobe popup and Firefox isn't affected. Openscript doesn't appear to have any issues and the recording can be continued or stopped. It records the click on the tree and the "Dismiss All" from the popup both as "Click object("@id='main'") as type "web" instead of "flexFT".
I am using OATS 9.2.1.0 with Firefox 3.6.17. I am testing a Flex 3.3 SDK built application. I installed the Adobe Flash Player 9 that came with the Flex SDK 3.3 before installing OATS.
Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.
Some other information that may prove to be useful: I cannot seem to get OpenScript to consistently play back the actions on the same tree described above. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. I've tried using "Select Tree", "Select List", and "Click Tree" and each one is inconsistent on playback. It will report "Target Not Found".
I have the console output for a "Target Not Found" failure below, where line 100 is ".select("GRID1>server1", TriggerEvent.Mouse," from the following Java generated on recording with OpenScript:

Flash Player IGNORES Settings?

I've set the global security settings on the Adobe site
(always allow external website links to open). The setting appears
to "stick" (i.e., it keeps the Always Allow value), but each time I
attempt to open an external link the same error message is
displayed ("Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe
operation.").
This message appears in both Firefox v3.07 and IE v7.x (fully
patched). Anyone else seen this issue and if so, know how to
resolve it?
Russ Foszcz

I had the same problem with my X-Fi and its software upmix (useless in the case of flash player). Apparently, Adobe thinks that upmixing flash sound to match the system speaker configuration is the right way to go (ignoring the horrible results in the audio quality, like in the bass balancement and in the center speaker being too loud), and they are not going to change this behaviour soon.
However, i found a workaround in this old post ( http://forums.adobe.com/message/5352195 ): you need to add the line
UseWAVPlayer=1
to MMS.CFG , located in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash in 64bit windows.

From where did you download that update? Did you download the content debugger instead of the standard player?

Help please? Static audio, Crashes, ActionScript Errors and more issues with Flash Player 16

So, this is the first time I'm posting in here and I'm sorry if I mess up or smth.
Anyway, this is what happened:
- Firefox tells me Flash Player 15 is vulnerable
- I update to the newest version
- After the update I run into several things that are highly annoying.
First of all:
- I can't watch any livestreams anymore, neither on picarto nor on twitch. The video keeps loading and buffering, then works for a second or two and then goes back to buffering OR alternatively the video would stop whilst the sound continues or vice versa. (My wifi connection is super fast and I never had any problems until the update)
- On youtube videos only load for a second or two, then the audio vanishes and the video crashes. (Never had that issue before, EVER)
- The audio is incredibly wonky, aka, depending on the bass or sounds I hear static noises and weird sounds. (This only happens on videos that require flash, the sound is fine when playing CDs )
- When watching videos and pausing it or going back a few seconds to rewatch something, the audio suddenly is completely gone.
- Flash player crashes A LOT
EDIT: Another Issue appeared:
- When watchign videos using the Blip player (used by some websites) I get ActionScript errors which then result in crashes
I'm using:
Packard Bell EasyNoteLS
Windows 7 Home Premium
Firefox 34.0.5
Adobe/Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.235
What I've tried to do:
- revert back to an older version of Flash (but it kept telling me to update so I gave up on it)
- Try to enable "hardware accelaration" BUT, when right clicking on the Flash Symbol on Adobe's site FF freezes and tells me that Flash player crashed
- Found out that I already have hardware accelaration enabled and it still keeps crashing
- I deleted all of its local cache
- downloaded and installed the debug version
But none of it helped in the slightest.
I really hope someone can help me fix this OR that adobe soon comes with a patch/update that fixes all these things ;_____;
Thanks for reading and helping!

Just to let you know, I don't tend to send all reports but here are a few from within the last week:

I tend to submit crash reports most of the times lately but yeah--
Also, someting that really bugs me are these Actionscript errors because I can't upload a crash report for those--
(they are more rare now but still happen occasionally)
EDIT: Added photo of one of the Actionscript Errors when trying to play videos using the blip-player

Adobe Flash Player 10: An ActionScript error has occurred?

Whenever I browse the web with Firefix, I get this sort of error message if the site uses Flash:
Adobe Flash Player 10
An ActionScript error has occurred:
Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: http://content.openforum.com/membersproject/getContentList.jsp?numitems=3&pillar=CAUSES

    at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
    at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
    at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()
This only started happening when I upgraded to CS4 Professional. Does anyone know why this is happening?

first go here and check if you have the debug player: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
if yes, you can download from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
(be sure to untick that mcafee garbage.)

Flash Player ignores my sound settings

With my Creative Xi-Fi Sound card software I have accurately configured how stereo sound has to be upmixed. This especially includes the crossover frequency and volume of my subwoofer. Unfortunately the Adobe Flash Player is the only software (I am currently using), which does completely ignore this and does its own 5.1 upmixing. Unfortunately this gives me way to much bass and makes youtube less entertaining (especially when watching music clips).
Why isn't there any option to disable this 5.1 upmix and let the user decide (system wide) how stereo sound has to be treated?
Best regards

I had the same problem with my X-Fi and its software upmix (useless in the case of flash player). Apparently, Adobe thinks that upmixing flash sound to match the system speaker configuration is the right way to go (ignoring the horrible results in the audio quality, like in the bass balancement and in the center speaker being too loud), and they are not going to change this behaviour soon.
However, i found a workaround in this old post ( http://forums.adobe.com/message/5352195 ): you need to add the line
UseWAVPlayer=1
to MMS.CFG , located in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash in 64bit windows.

Why did you ignore my post about Flash Player failing to register its ActiveX Control?

Three days ago I submitted a precisely-worded description of a persistent installation problem: Every time I attempt to download and install Flash Player V. 16 on my laptop running Windows Vista 64 bit and IE 9, the download completes successfully, but at the end of installation, a dialog box gives this message
"ActiveX Control failed to register."
I presume that your installation software was unable to write something into the Windows Registry. Other software has no trouble writing to my Windows Registry. My anti-virus software is not blocking the Registry.
I expressly asked for an Adobe staff member to guide me on how to debug this failed installation.
All I got was zilch. Your forum software assured me that my request was posted, but I have not seen it on the list of recent posts. You made it disappear and did not respond to it. Your company does not provide any other avenue for a distraught user to obtain technical support. Your dismissive attitude toward your customers and user community is even more distressing than your bloated, malfunctioning software products.
Without Flash Player installed, my computer has been dead in the water for ten days. I can't do my work. If I am forced to write my own Flash emulator just to get my work done, then I won't need Adobe anymore.

Hi Pramananda,
You're previous post wasn't ignored. Assisting users on forums is not staffs primary responsibility and we try to assist users as our time allows, in between our responsibilities. Creating multiple posts for the same issue also doesn't help as it simply forks the problem and results in responses to both, causing confusion.
Failure to register errors are normally caused by registry permissions issues, not user permissions issues. Please review the Flash Player | Windows registry permissions tech note as it addresses this issue.

P.S. I locked your other thread so that responses will only be posted to one location, eliminating forked responses and confusion.

Communicating with FLASH player via actionscript

I was wondering of there's a way to control the FLASH player
(if playing back a .swf directly from the harddrive) with
Actionscript, so that
1) the movie opens and plays in "full screen" mode
automatically
2) the application can "quit" on button-click (= the
equivalent of the user hitting the esc key on the keyboard).
Can I do that? Is there a way to communicate to the actual
"Player" application in this way? Help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks...

Sunil,
Still no luck getting the SWF to run under 11.4.402.265 with any of my Mac browsers. The SWF runs fine on PC browsers with 11.4.402.265 installed.
I confirmed that uninstalling 11.4.402.265 and downgrading to Flash Player 11.3.300.27, the one just prior to 11.4, allows the SWF to run fine again on all browsers.
The iOS note you provided wouldn't have any direct applicability since we're talking about a web application failing to load. But maybe the "Secure socket connections fail | Mac OS 10.8" issue may have some correlation or side-effect??
The debugging on this one is a challenge to say the least...

Closing Flash Player Actionscript 2.0

Hi - I've got a project written in AS 2.0 and the end deliverable is an EXE file to be played back locally. I can't for the life of me figure out how to have the Flash Player close either on button release or at a certain frame in the timeline.
Is it possible to do this?
Thanks in advance...

The command to close an as2 projector is fscommand:
fscommand("quit");
You can put that in a frame script or apply it to a button like:
someButton.onPress = function() { fscommand("quit"); };

Flash Player v.10 ignores actionscript 2.0 or 3.0 commands.
