How to make a Poster Frame in a Flash 8 Video player

Hi to all,
I want to make a poster frame (a simple jpg)
to display before the FLV video plays.
So first the user to click the play button or on this poster frame.
The code below does exactly what I need, but it is in Flash CS4.
How could I do the same with Flash 8 Pro (ActionScript 2.0)?
Any help?
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
function showPosterFrame(event:Event):void {
    myPoster.visible = true;
function hidePosterFrame(event:Event):void {
    myPoster.visible = false;
function playMovie(event:MouseEvent):void {
    myVideo.play();
myPoster.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);
myVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, hidePosterFrame);
myVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, showPosterFrame);

How do I select the Poster Frame when exporting to video?

PP CS6
I cannot find how to select the frame that I want to appear as the Poster Frame in the exported video.
I can select it I can change one by right clicking an imported video OK but not the sequence!
I've been through every menu I can find & even Lynda.com training!
I'm sure that there must be a way but I'm blowed if I can find it!!

There are two common meanings for the phrase "poster frame":
A standalone image on disk (JPG etc) which is displayed by a player before the video is loaded - commonly used by video player apps on websites (YouTube etc), InDesign and PDF files, etc. so the video asset doesn't have to be opened in order for the viewer to see what they're about to watch - although the image is normally captured from the video it doesn't have to be.
An image resource embedded into the XMP/ID3 data of a video or audio file which can sometimes be shown in the player, but is normally set because it appears as the thumbnail image when viewing the files in Finder or Windows Explorer. It's not part of the content stream, it's in the file header. In MP3 files it's used to store album artwork.
You can create standalone JPEG images from PP using the camera icon below the monitor and can semi-automate the export of a still image alongside your video using presets in Adobe Media Encoder, but there's no option in PP (or via Adobe Media Encoder) to specify the embedded poster image in a rendered media file. Several third-party apps can do it, either during render (Compressor / Squeeze) or after the fact (Quicktime Pro), but support for these embedded resources depends on the wrapper for the video file.
The ability to set a 'poster frame' in the clip bins in PP is solely there to help you organize your project assets visually - for example if the imported footage starts from black, or if you want to choose a frame where the slate is visible - but your choice has no effect on the sequences at export and isn't written back into the original footage.

How to make a modal frame?

Hello!
My problem is quite simple, but I don't know how to make some MODAL frames (JFrame I mean). In my application, the user can open a same frame even if this frame is already opened and that's not really good.
So, I want the user to close the frame before opening another one.
Can anyone explain me how to do that?

Generally your actionListener will be an internal class of your main frame class. Usually an anonymous internal class. That means it can act on variables in the frame (which is the sensible place to keep the flags).
Something like:
class Class1 extends JDesktop {
boolean itsOpen = false;
openAction.setActionListener(new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    if(!itsOpen) {
       itsOpen = true;
       openAction.setEnabled(false);
       MyInternalFrame newFrame = new MyInternalFrame(Class1.this, ....);
       add(newFrame);
   });You do need some way for the internal frame to act on the variables in the main frame. There are various ways of achieving this.
If we're dealing with a genuine InternalFrame there's a special InternalFrameListener (?) which allows your main frame to listen for the window closing. You can use this instead of hacking the dispose method.
If you're main frame is a JDeskTop then you can use getDesktop() in your internal frame to access it, then cast the result to the real class of your desktop.
Our you can simply add a pointer to your class1 to the contructor of your internal frame class.
You could even get clever and create your own listener system.

First off.. Flash 5 is like.. Ancient. Dude. Seriously, thats
more than
3 versions ago, and there have been major major changes
since.
However, I'll give it a try..
First off, there has to be some kind of an event that kicks
it off. I
would build something into the score system that would
trigger this.
For example.
function updateScore():Void {
_root.stage.scoreboard.text = myNewScore;
if (myNewScore > 2000) {
jumpToNextLevel();
So, somewhere in your game a variable keeps the score.. if
your game
runs the updateScore function once in a while, if it hits
more than
2000, it triggers a new function called jumpToNextLevel.
In the jumpToNextLevel, you would have to do more functions
like
pauseTheGame(), and such..
In general.. break it down to small pieces of what you want
to do. Each
function would do a series of things.. Then when your going
though your
game, you call each function as needed.
Hope this helps

How to set movie poster frame in final cut pro x

Need some help on the following.
Objective-using QT 7 or later, Current Compressor, FCP X or any other video editing tool, export a mp4 movie that displays a "poster frame" when the movie is inserted into iBook Author. When started by the user, the movie would begin to play from the first frame of the movie (not the poster frame).
thx ra

This sounds like a question for the iBooks Author forum. I think you set the poster frame in that application. How you make the video behave in the iBook is controlled in that application not in the editing application.

How do I set poster frame in Premiere Pro?

Does anyone know how to set poster frame in Premiere Pro? Wasted hours trying to figure this out and reading all forum threads and sadly still to no avail. Any help much appreciated.

thanks at JSS1138 for this and that appears to enable me to select 'set poster frame' (albeit it not on static images). However, when I export the video the (supposedly now) set poster frame still does not appear as the preview image. Any ideas on this?

How to make a still frame of iDVD menu?

I want to make a DVD label and cover that copy the title menu page. How do I make a still frame that I could manipulate in iPhoto or Photoshop?
Thanks
Ashley

I do this all the time. Turn off motion at a point you like.
Go into the Applications folder. Find the Utilities folder. Open it. Find Grab. Double-click on it. Go into the Menu, click on Capture and select Selection. Now, drag your cursor across the menu and release. Name and save the image (to your desktop?).
Open in Photoshop (or Elements). Crop to 4.75 x 4.75 inches for Apple's CD case. Crop to 5.125 x 7.25 inches for DVD case. Print and insert.
Not exactly "easy," but it works for me.
