How do I get the playhead to move forward

Hello all - I have simple flash CS4 file (AS3) with a video playback component in a movie clip called "video". The only other thing in this flash movie is a script to load another SWF file as soon as the video is done playing.... I can't seem to figure out how to do this.
If I use stop() on the frame with the video - it will play - but then the playhead will not move forward to the next frame which has the next script and if I leave the stop() off - it plays only a a few frames of the video and moves on to the next frame and executes the script that loads the swf file.
Everything I've read requires a button event - and I don't need a button.  I just need the video to play - then the next script to execute.
Here are the only scripts in the flash movie:
***************************** // in the frame containing video component
stop()
*********************************** // in the next frame after video component.
stop();
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();                    
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("section_6.swf");
myLoader.load(url);                                    
addChild(myLoader);
Many thanks
Deb

Thanks again for your help!
I have this working if anyone is interested
stop()
video.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completePlay);
function completePlay(e:Event):void {
nextFrame();
video is the name of the flv playback component (NOT the movie clip - which is where I was having problems)
Best Wishes
Deb

    Thanks but I think it's more of a setting thing.
    Worked for years in 9 and know my the key commands. Just takes up  lot of extra time. I know there must be a solution just can't find it myself.
    Thanks again.
    Oh, I see…….when I want something like this to happen I would just engage the >Go To Start<  command (0 on the numeric keyboard in my case) and the play head will position at the beginning of a cycle area (if one is active of course)!
    Hope this helps a bit……..

    Read another post in the forum about this and it appears this app also installs a profile with a proxy service that you will have to try and delete as well. Check that out.

  • How on can get the plaback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Hi folks,
    I am not able to play the .mov files created by Red camera so..
    how one can get the playback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Well, one typically doesn't edit with any of the proxy-files the RED camera produces.  You need to convert the RED footage to ProRes.  Log and Transfer can do this, if you download and install the RED Log and Transfer plugin.  Or you might need to use RED software to convert the footage to ProRes.  But those Red proxy files won't import via log and transfer, and are NOT editable in FCP.  Gotta convert to ProRes.

  • Audio Selection in 3.0: How can I get the cursor to move smoothly?

    I need to be very precise in editing clips in Multitrack View. Right now, the only way I can get the cursor to move smoothly (and not in that herky-jerky motion between zero-crossing points or whatever that it defaults to) is by holding down the CTRL key while using the Hybrid tool. Is there a setting for this somewhere so I don't have to do this every time? Thanks.
    Steve

    Right click on the timescal at the bottom of the waveform display. You will get a drop down box that allows you to change DisplayTime Format, Snapping and Zooming. Go to the Snapping menu and turn on or off those that you want to use.

    If its a USB based mouse, try unplugging the mouse and plugging it back in.
    If it's a wireless RF mouse, make sure the RF dongle is properly plugged into the USB port. Make sure the mouse is powered on.
    If it is a bluetooth mouse, make sure it is properly paired with your Mac (you may need another mouse temporarly to check on this).
    And for any wireless mouse, be sure and try clicking the mouse a few times, many have mouse sleep routines to preserve the mouses battery life.

  • How do i get the playhead to start at the beginning of a clip?

    This should be an easy one.  For the life of me, I can't figure out how to play from the beginning of a clip (region).
    Isn't there a setting that will allow me do play directly from the beginning of a clip, and not just from the beginning of a session, or from a marker?

    Forgot about that one.
    I appreciate all the feedback from everyone.

  • How do I get the codec for .mov files recorded on an ipad, so I can edit them in premiere El. 12?

    I have .mov files recorded from an ipad with these specs:
    AAC, Mono, 44.100 KHZ
    H.264 320x568 (yes the ipad was used vertically, not horizontally)
    29.96 fps
    I want to edit them in premiere 12, but get this error message:
    This type of file is not supported or the required codec is not installed.
    What are my options? Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply.
    As for orientation, there is a rotation feature in Premiere Elements 12....at the Timeline level, you can right click the clip and select Rotate 90 Left or Rotate  90 Right. So that may help.
    This is what you may want to try and see what this looks like
    1. Open Premiere Elements 12 to its Expert workspace
    2. Go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings
    3. In the Change Settings dialog, change the project preset to NTSC DV Widescreen.
    4. Before you exit that area, in the last dialog that you see (new project dialog), make sure you have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on this Project".
    5. Back in the Expert workspace, use Add Media/Files and Folders/ to bring your video into Project Assets from where you will drag it to Video Track 1. We can talk about edits if necessary.
    6. Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc with preset set for NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD.
    7. Place your DVD 4.7 GB/120 min disc in the burner, in the burn dialog, have a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space". Hit Burn.
    If you decide to take the Timeline to YouTube instead,
    Publish+Share/Social Websites/YouTube, using Presets = Flash Video for YouTube (Widescreen)
    Hit Next and follow the instructions.
    (Upload to YouTube from within Premiere Elements 12 has limits of 2 GB and 15 minutes. Anything exceeding that, you need to export to file saved to the computer hard drive and then upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site where you might be able to get extended limits.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the above information.
    Thanks.

    Add On...If you want to "decorate" the black borders in the Timeline content, drag the video to Video Track 2 and put a colored background on Video Track 1 directly below the Video Track 2 content.

  • Stupid question: how do i get the cursor to move in DWCS4???

    yes, dumb question i know. i'm not a web guy at all but have built a couple of sites years ago using an older version of DW. however, i just downloaded the trial of CS4 and everwhere i read it just says simply "place the cursor where you want the text" or object on the page. however, my cursor will not leave the upper left corner no matter what i do. clearly im doing something stupid. it cant possibly be that hard? help?

    The "frames" you're referring to are Absolutely Positioned Divs. "Frames" are a very different and out-of-favour tool.
    The page is constructed entirely of what used to be called Layers - now called Absolutely Positioned Divs or APDivs for short (weird name but technically more accurate and much less confusing trying to explain to newbies the difference between Layers in DW and Layers in Photoshop and Illustrator).
    If all you want to do is move elements arounds on that page, go to Window > AP Elements (F2) and you'll see your APDivs listed in the AP Div panel.
    Click on one (or all) of them and drag as desired.
    Note: AP Divs are generally a poor method for page layout for many reasons but they'll probably be OK as a very quick and dirty solution for the limited application that you have in mind.

  • Dead ipod with unsynched music and movies, how do I get the music and movies onto new ipod

    my old ipod died before i was able to sync the latest purchases to my computer.  How do I redownload purchases to new ipod

    If the iPod is dead and you never synced it and you have no backup, say "bye-bye" to the contents.
    You can individually download the apps and songs from iTunes without charge provided that you use the same Apple ID.

  • How do I get the Home, Reload and Forward/Backward buttons grouped logically together, rather than splattered randomly across the top of the browser ?

    In Firefox 3, all the buttons are grouped together, in V4 they are now scattered across the top of the browser, aping IE7/8 - plus the "stop loading" button has gone walkabout - it would be useful to get that back, as well.

    You can open the Customize window to make it possible to change the position of those toolbar buttons.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"<br />
    * Drag the Home button from its current position at the right to the previous position at the left of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position at the left side of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

  • I downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?

    i downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?

    hi philly, thanks for getting back to me, especially on such a busy day.
    I don't think that's quite the issue though. I bought an album and it appears in 'my purchases' within the itunes app. Yet, in order to listen to the music, i must use the 'music' app and in this application, there are only three tracks displayed at any one time from my downloaded album.
    I can 'download all' from the 'my purchases' section but that still doesn't help, it just keeps the last three tracks downloaded in the music app.
    I have the 'icloud' enabled and wondered if it had anything to do with that.
    i have successfully downloaded another full album totally into the music app, but this first album is causing me problems.

  • I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone?

    I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone 5. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel and are checked to select them. But they do not show up in iPhone Videos. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone? I recently upgraded Mac OS to 10.6.8

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4?  And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?

    How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4?  And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?
    My 3GS is dying and it's synced to an older computer.  I have tons of datafiles as well as apps, music, text messages, etc. that I need to get moved to the new iphone4 I'm getting.  Then I need to move the sync to a newer computer so that I can sync the new phone and new computer.
    I understand how to get my apps to transfer to a new pc.  That's not the issue.  It's getting ALL the data from the 3GS to the 4 and then to a new computer.
    Thanks.

    Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone).  Very clear. 
    However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer.  How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?
