HELP! IE looping flash movies

My company's intranet home page has two flash movies on it
set to play once.
Some kind of Microsoft patch was initiated over the weekend
company wide and
now IE loops the movies. The source code has the loop set to
false but IE is
ignoring it. If you right click on the4 flash the loop is
checked.
Unchecking it fixes the problem but you have to do it every
time the page is
loaded. Anyone know what is going on?
Thanks
mark

I don't know why that is happening, but putting a stop();
action on the last frame should keep the movie from looping. It is
a hard issue to solve without seeing the problem first hand, but
since it is on your intranet that isn't going to happen.

How do I display a live webpage (live data feed) as part of my looping flash movie.

G'Day All, I've been tasked with creating a flash movie for a client (3 scenes, some text and images) simple enough, the challenge is one of the scenes needs to display a live page from a locally hosted website (it's a graphic display of a live data feed from a solar panel array on the roof). What I need to know is how do I set up the flash file to display the live page as one of the scenes of my looping movie? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Ben.

Looping flash movie

I have created a flash website... on the first page i want to
enter a simple motion tween movie( i imported it)... i can do that
but it keeps looping... i unchecked Loop in html and added stop();
in the last keyframe but still the movie loops any ideas how to
stop this??? I am using flash 8
ps im inserting a flash movie within a flash movie(this
should not make a diference)
here is what i have found.... i am trying to replace an image
in a flash website with a movie... it continuously loops it appears
you need to add the Stop(); asctionscript wilthin the website and
not the move (.swf) imported.... thats where the problem lies is it
not possible to add Stop(); in the movie itself???? I have tried
this and it does not work???
Puzzled

If the offending loop is from the main timeline of the
imported swf and on the last keyframe of that timeline you entered
a stop(); and that didn't help maybe you should call an exorcist.
Or maybe there is another timeline in the imported swf that's
looping like a MovieClip?

Help with multiple flash movies in same website

I'm trying to create a website in dreamweaver. I created the
artwork in fireworks. a slice of it i exported to flash to create
rolling clouds over the background. i also want in the same swf
file a screen for my main content. ( I used a scrollPane component
that works nice. But for each button on my web menu (home,
schedule, ect...), I want to be able to put new content in my
scrollPane. My buttons don't reside in my flash movie. Do I need to
create a new movie for each web page?
I'm not sure how to procede.
Can anybody help?

It seems that when you import an external flash movie into
Captivate 1, the full path is...
"_level0.slide0__image_mc.s0_i9_swf_mc.m_swf_mc"
...this was the start of the solution for my problem so I
thought it best to post in case it helps out anyone else.
BTW - The slide number changes (obviously) and so does the
'i' reference depending on the attributes you have given to your
imported movies.

Help with making a flash movie...go to frame and looping

How do I make it so that in my flash movie when it gets to a
certain frame in the movie it skis to another frame? Where and what
is the action script? like when it gets to frame 150 i want it to
go back to frame 1 so it can be animation for like a animated menu.
anyone know?

If your movie contains exactly 150 frames, then you don't
need to write anything. It will loop automatically. If it contains
more than 150 frames, put the command 'gotoAndPlay(1)' in the 150th
frame.

Flash movie slowing with each loop?

My main flash movie is made up with scenes, on each scene I have used the UILoader component to load external swf content to the main movie, the first one works fine but gradually with each loop the movie slows down, i have a globe in one scene which is looking really juddery... Can anyone help?
Thanks
Darren

First off, you should not use scenes - they have never really worked all that well, and just lead to problems. Aside from that, if you're adding listeners to your loaders you need to remove them - or use weak references, which you should always be doing anyway. Have you looked at task manager to see if successive loops are using more and more ram and/or more and more cpu cycles?

Flash CS3: Help me make my movie play, please!

URL: http:schoolsignsonline.com
This is an electronic sign company, so I'm trying to put a Flash movie of one of their signs onto their preexisting site. No sound, no skin, no controls, just the movie, looping endlessly.
I imported an .avi video (from a PC) from the client into Flash CS3 (on a Mac), and made sure my stage was the same size as the file parameters.
Saved the file. Tested the movie in Flash. **The movie plays just fine**. It's a picture of brightly colored balloons ascending on a black background.
I publish the movie.
I copy the .fla and .swf into the flash folder at the root level of the site on my local server.
I go into Dreamweaver CS3 to insert the movie using their Insert>Flash into the div I've created for it on the index page (which uses server side includes for the nav & footer only - no PHP involved - so each page has an .shtml extension).
I test the movie in DW by clicking on the green arrow in the properties toolbar. Nothing but white. Movie doesn't play, or if it is playing, it's only white.
What the heck. I save the page, letting DW generate the script.
I upload the revised index page, the flash folder (with the .swf and .fla files in it), and the Scripts folder to the site on the remote server.
Go to a browser. Nothing but white where the movie is supposed to be.
I asked about this on the Adobe DW group on Yahoo Groups, and they really didn't know, thinking it was a Flash problem. One of them said the movie couldn't be found. Dang it! This is a script that DW generated when I placed the movie into the page! I don't know anything about JavaScript (yet), so I'm not going to muck about in the code to break it.
BTW, the HTML for the page with the movie on it no longer validates - I hear this is typical of a CS3 Flash insertion by DW.
Can anyone PLEASE help me figure out what I've done wrong? What other info do you need from me?
Thank you in advance.
Theresa

For the Flash-generated html file, you basically want to copy the script tag in the head section....
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
into the same place in the head section of the real file.
and copy the entire section of code in the body starting with and including...
<script language="javascript">
if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {
.... all the stuff between....
</object>
</noscript>
into the div you mention
And in the case of what's shown above, you would want to have the AC_RunActiveContent.js file in a Scripts folder.

Need help with Different approaches to setting variables in a Flash movie in Adobe Flash CS3 Professional Version

Hi,
I'm using Adobe Flash CS3 Professional version of Flash

I need help and guidance on
Different approaches to setting variables in a Flash movie,
what I should do in the fla file, and in the html file.
Thanks, Gil

I hope this helps.

Please Help!!!!!dynamically changing a flash movies size...

Hi i'm working on my final year dissertation and have become
intensely stressed out/frustrated & almost mental in achieving
this particular aim!!!!
what i need to know is how to
dynamically change a flash movies document size in real time,
without squashing or stretching the content,much like the banner
adds frequently seen on hotmail by companies such as orange,lexus
etc.. where the flash movies size expands on interaction
Help on this will be greatly greatly appreciated!!
Thank you.

RE: "P.S. I found it aggravating that I couldn't copy and paste text here, it wanted me to insert as a link or an image, how do you insert plain text?"
I take it you tried using the "right click" menu? That doesn't seem to work, as you noted, but, you should be able to paste text by pressing your CTRL key and while holding it down, press the "V" letter key.
CTRL + C = COPY
CTRL + X = CUT
CTRL + V = PASTE

HELP!! White frame where Flash movies should be!!!

Can't figure a single reason why this is doing what it's
doing. Everything works fine before I create the projector.....but
once I launch it and test, all my Flash movies are just white
frames of the same size as the movies are supposed to be. No sound
or anything. Does the same thing on the Mac or PC side. I've tried
checking and unchecking DTS, etc. but I can't figure this one out.
My project is due TODAY....first time I've had this problem
before, ever.....HELP!!!

I thought about that (actually made that mistake with the
Buddy API Xtra), but I just now got it to work....seems as though
it doesn't like talking to a shared drive space between my Windows
and Mac partitions, even though it'll play just fine within
Director while I'm working on the project. I copied everything
over, all the directories, etc. to my Windows side, created a test
projector from there, and voila!
Thanks for the suggestion; I used to make that Xtra mistake a
LOT.

Help targeting flash movie

I am trying to find a way to have my flash movie play on the
same dreamweaver page.
I have five buttons on the left. When I click each one I want
them to play a different flash file in the same location on the
right. As you click a different button a new flash file replaces
the old one in the same location on the right. Each flash file is a
different size. Also I designed this and sliced it in photoshop,
saved for web and devices the opened the html file in dreamweaver.
Can my issue with this still be solved.
Please help. Thanks

Look at Wimpy Streaming audio/video Player. One player can
handle all your
flash videos and MP3 audio clips. Very easy to install, dirt
simple to
update playlists later.

Need Your Help with Loading SWF into another Flash Movie!

Hello,
I have created TWO Flash movies. They work just fine
individually, but I get problem when I put one into another one!
The main Flash is a Menu and the second one if a Photo Album.
The Menu is series of animation (Moving Objects) which finally
comes into rest and create the menu. The photo album is another SWF
file which is called with in the first Flash Movie (The Menu). The
SWF file is loaded as follow into the Main Flash.
MovieClip.prototype.drawRect = function(x, y, w, h) {
this.beginFill(0xFF0000, 100);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0);
this.endFill();
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc6", 6);
mc6.lineStyle (3, 0x000000, 100);
mc6.drawRect(-77, -17, 20, 20);
mc6._xscale = 100;
mc6._yscale = 100;
loadMovie("photoAlbum.swf", mc6);
Problem arises when I click on the Play Button of the
photoAlbum.swf (Photo Album) since the execution of the play button
causes the Flash starts once again from the beginning of the entire
Flash Movie (Beginning of the animation creating the menu) and it
simply jumps into the Firm One of my Flash Movie.
Could you tell me how I can isulate what is in layer 6 (Where
the photoAlbum is loaded to) from the rest of my Flash Movie?
I hope I managed to explain my problem. I would like to take
this opportunity to thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Hello Anya,
I have realized the problem arises from the Wait Function
which causes the Photo Album to pause for a period of time (Two
Seconds) once a Photo is fully displayed (I have Fade in/out Photo
Album). I realized everything works OK once I remove the function
and rather left the Photos to be flipped without any pausing (This
is an Auto-loading Album which simply Flips the photos!).
Here is the Wait Function which is causing all the trouble.
function wait()
stop();
var myInterval = setInterval(function ()
play();
clearInterval(myInterval);
}, 2000);
Thank you so much for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Website Homepage flash movie, help

I am managing a website and would like to create a flash
sideshow to replace our static looking image on our homepage.
Nothing too fancy just a simple fade in and out between about
4 pictures, click on the picture it takes you to a url for the
product, and buttons at the bottom to go back to a previous
slide/frame.
Here is a link to a site with exactly what i would like to
accomplish. May be a tad faster rotation speed.
Sferra the big
flash thing on the homepage
I am pretty new to flash, but i am knowledgeable in photoshop
and have dabbled with dreamweaver and fireworks. If there are some
tutorials that could help me out, or any advice someone could give
me on how to accomplish this I would really appreciate it.

If it's the flash you want to edit, you need Flash or Swish

Adding link to Flash movie to HTML Help

I have to output the same help in both CHM and WebHelp, and I
have to include a Flash movie (SWF) in both versions. The only way
I've found to get a link to the Flash movie to work in the compiled
CHM is to add all the Flash files to the project as "baggage" and
then insert the link. Compiled CHM then includes the Flash files.
Is this the recommended approach? Is there an easier way?
Thanks,
mel

Hi mel and welcome to our community
Indeed, adding to baggage will not hurt a thing and is
recommended. I recently published a second article dealing with
Flash content and RoboHelp that you may find useful. You may view

Variables into flash movie - Urgent help needed, please

I am hoping this is simple:
Here is my HTML code:
<param name="movie" value="orig2.swf" /><param
name=FlashVars VALUE="sname=video1.flv"><param name="quality"
value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
I need to pass video1.flv to the flash movie.
Here is the MOVIE data. I was told this is how to do it, but
I am sure it's missing something basic.
//insert sample link below
mediaDisplay.directLink = "
http://flash.xxx.com/flashgen.cgi?sname=&aname=xxxxxxxx/_definst_";
//pulls sname from param value in HTML
mediaDisplay.simplePlaylist = sname;
streamnameTxt.text = sname;
So, it should pull the SNAME variable from HTML and feed it
into player. If I type in SNAME variable and manually place it in
DirectLink line above, it works, but I need it to feed from HTML.
PLEASE HELP!!

I know how to pass the variable TO flash, but how do I get
the FLASH movie to receive it??
Again, here is the code in the FLA file
//insert sample link below
mediaDisplay.directLink = "
http://flash.xxx.com/flashgen.cgi?sname=&aname=xxxxxxxx/_definst_";
//pulls sname from param value in HTML
mediaDisplay.simplePlaylist = sname;
streamnameTxt.text = sname;
