HTML: How to start playing a swf at a certain frame?

Hi, is it possible to start a swf (test.swf) not in the beginning but at a certain frame (comparable to gotoAndPlay) in between the html-file?
... Or is there any other way to start a swf at a given frame? Thanks, Ute

Hi Ned,
now I found the solution by myself:
on (release) {
     var my_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
     my_mcl.addListener(mclListener);
     my_mcl.loadClip("ecomo.swf",30);
and in ecomo.fla:
     level30.abatimoaktiv = true;
     level30.kollektion.abatimobtn_inst.gotoAndStop(2);
     _level30.gotoAndPlay("abatimo");
But one more question: what level ist he best one to choose?

Send loaded swf to a certain frame

I'm sure this has been answered here before, but I can't find
anything in Search.
I load an external .swf file into a Loader. There is a button
on the main timeline which is supposed to send the Loader's Child
to frame 4. This has to be a simple operation, but I'm stymied. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the quick response. Do you think you could
expand on that a bit? I don't know how to reference the loaded
swf... is it something like
Loader.child.gotoAndStop(4)? Thanks again.

IPod shuffle 4th Gen. How to start playing podcast from the very beginning once again?

Hello to everybody in this forum,
I bought a new iPod shuffle 4th Gen music player for about two weeks ago. I love this device, it works great as well as it's sound quality amazes me after Windows Mobile 6.0 Phone, Transcend MP3 and even Samsung Galaxy Ace devices use experience. It's much better and it made me got used to podcasts feature I never tried before, But if I want to replay the very same podcast item from the very beginning - I simply don't know how to rewind it back. If I press next/prev buttons it doesn't help. The podcast itself starts to play at about 5 minutes before a podcast's end as if I were listened to the whole podcast continuously from the beginning of a podcast. A podcast appears to be divided into chapters and I don't understand how to switch chaprers. Even if I did, the amount of chapters is big and it's inconvenient to swith every chapter with prev button pressed. Shuffle's manual tells me nothing on how to get things work I want it to. Any help is appreciated.
Best regards, Alexander Chernyaev.

How do you play a swf file from the desktop

I have created a swf file using flash. It can be downloaded
onto the desktop. It is zipped. When unzipped it is called
yadayada.swf. It does not get associated to the flash player or the
shockwave flash player which are both installed. So if i double
click on it it won't play.
What do I have to do to make it play from the desktop in its
plain swf file format. I want people to be able to download it onto
their desktop for both Mac and PC users. I published it as a
projector .exe file but mac users cant run it.
What should be my next step?
I have installed Flash on my development box so this isnt an
issue but it is for my test computer that doesnt have flash
installed.

HI
mm 2 things you can do.
1. Create a html page that loads this SWF file, This will
work on both OS's.
2. Create a Projector file for PC and HQX for the Mac. You
cannot have one
file todo both.
Hope this helps.

How do I play FC swf with animation & video inside interactive pdf?

Hello...good people! I want to create an interactive PDF using a published FC swf (offline view version) with flv video and animation. The problem I'm having is with video playback inside the pdf. EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS EXCEPT VIDEO! It's as if Acrobat is not reading the asset folder (where the video file is located) created by FC. All animations work and even the video control (skin) appears! Just....no....video!
When I RUN PROJECT (inside browser), everything works perfectly!
As a matter of fact, I am able to create damn-near-the-same SWF (with flv video playback and animation) inside InDesign CS5 (hint hint!) using the animation and media panel and Export> SWF command (and again everything works perfectly!)
In case you want to know how I do it, here's how it works....
1. Drag-and-drop your SWF created in InDesign into Acrobat 9 Pro or Pro Extended.
2. When the INSERT FLASH dialogue box appears, check SHOW ADVANCED OPTIONS. Click the RESOURCES tab. Click the ADD DIRECTORY button. Then, locate the asset folder (with flv/f4v video) associated with your SWF. Click OK.
3. And bam!!...the SWF (video playback and animation) should appear and play as soon as the dialogue box closes.
But remember...this is with InDesign CS5! How do I do this with FC? Why does everything work BUT the video playback when I follow these same steps after publishing from FC? WHAT AM I MISSING OR DOING WRONG?!!! I know I can do a lot more with FC and I want to see the same awesomeness of FC interactivity in my PDF as I see in my browser!!! If InDesign can do it, I know there's a way FC can!!!! Now....a little help please!
Thanks,
Big Waddy

Hi,
Interesting application for the Fc output. I tried this out and it seems to work fine. Here are the steps I went through.
Created the fxp file and output the result
Created the pdf
From inside Acrobat Pro, I selected the Multimedia > Flash Tool and then chose the area in the document where I wanted to place the Fc output
I chose the Main.swf for placement
Acrobat Pro places the file
I saved the pdf and then opened the file in the browser
A play button appears and works when pressed
Not sure what would happen when placed on a server. Expect that you would need to keep all the files in the correct path/relationship to each other.
Hope this helps.

How can I play many swf files back to back in AS3

I have many swf files
fileA.swf , fileB.swf, fileC.swf
I want to play them from a MainFile.swf back to back, fileA.swf , then fileB.swf then fileC.swf ...then to remove them and have the MainFile.swf only.
How is this done in AS3.
can anyone send me the code needed to do this. i don't know AS3 very well. I know how to do this in AS2 , i used to put code loadmovie in each files last frame that loaded the next file to a mc object in the mainfile.
I would apprciate to have all the code appear only in the main file without haveing to code each seperate swf file.

You should work out how to do it with just one file first in AS3. The approach to doing many sequencially would be similar to what you did in AS2... the simplest way being to add a command at the end of each swf to trigger the main file to remove it and add the next swf. I don't know of any way to detect the end of an swf... it has to tell you it's done.
In AS3 you use the Loader class to load swf and image files. You use the addChild family of methods to place things on the stage, and you use the removeChild family to get them out of the picture.

How can you play the project from a certain point without having to watch it over from the beginning?

I'm doing a project on iMovie and whenever I want to replay it replays from the beginning not from the point in the project that I would like to preview it from. How can I change this?

Move the playhead to wherever you want to start then press the space bar.

Start playing from the middle of a playlist?

Hi all,
I was wondering how to start playing from an arbitray song in a playlist on iTunes. When you go to a playlist, you see a play button next to the title of the playlist on the upper left corner of the playlist pane. If you press it, iTunes starts from the first song of the playlist. What do you do when you want to start from a song in the middle and continue to play songs in the order of the playlist?
I selected the song from which I want to start and pressed the play button on the upper-left corner, but iTunes started to play from the top of the list. When I double-clicked on the song, iTunes started to play the song but it stopped at the end of the album, not at the end of the playlist.
iTunes 11.1.3 (8).
Regards,
Ryo

Oh hi... seemed like I've got the problem fixed. :") For this particular case, just get the server side to stream the video to the clients (possibly one instance is created for each IP address, if resources allow). The server can quickly seek to any particular position within the media clip, and start streaming from there. The clients' players just need to listen to the stream from the appropriate instance on the server.
JMF can do the streaming just fine. I've switched to VLC before I knew that, so now I'm having problem making the JMF on the client work with the VLC streaming. This is weird, considering the streaming protocol to be identical. But I should get that fixed soon.
Thanks anyway! Hope this helps someone.

How to stop the animation at a certain frame?

Well, as the title already says, how can I stop my animtation at a certain frame. Is it only possible due setting up a timer, or can I also enter a code that stops at a certain frame?
And when I stop the animation, will my buttons still be able to get clicked?
Greetings,
Coyke

Thanks for the usefull reply, the problem was that i forgot the add a new keyframe that's why I couldnt make it in the frame I wanted.
I will have between 15 and 20 buttons that need to be able to get clicked when my animation is stopped, I first imported them to my library, then placed everything where I wanted it to be. Then created them as a Symbol (Selected Button!). Then I created instance names for every single of them.
With the code that's downstairs I want to let my animation go to frame 200 when I click on the button "Middenknop" while the animation is paused. But now i get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Kan geen eigenschap of methode benaderen via een verwijzing naar een object dat null is.
at Animatie2_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Here's the code I am currently using:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//---Middenknop eigenschap verandering---\\
Middenknop.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, basisClick);
function basisClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(200);

How can I get a .swf to stop playing using a button?

I've placed two .swf files inside my InDesign CC doc. and would like to control them using specifically created 'play' and 'stop' buttons. My InDesign file will be / is exported as a .swf also, as it has animations and interactivity.
One .swf is a looping animation (created in a separate InDesign doc.) and the other is a Captivate file published as a .swf.
When I create a 'play' button to play the .swf it works as expected, however when I create a 'stop' button and assign the Action 'Stop' or 'Stop All' it does not work and the .swf continues to play on the page.
When I change page within my InDesign document the two .swf's continue to play; I know this because despite not being able to see them still playing (as I'm on a new page now), one of the .swf's - the Captivate file - has audio and continues to play on the new page I'm viewing.
When I return to the page where the two .swf files are located they appear to have stopped and can be re-played, but what is actually happening is that the .swf's are still playing in the background with the option to press play for the same two .swf's - meaning I'll have a total of 4 .swf's playing at the same time - two behind the original two.
I know there is a similar 'unload' issue when playing a .swf inside a swf. in Flash and that you can create ActionScipt to either unloadAll or killAudio but I don't know how to resolve this with InDesign as I'm not aware of either being able to access the InDesign code or there being an actual fix for this.
Would appreciate some help, if possible.
Thanks.
James.

Hmmm. Behind the safari window? Try command-tab for quicktime X and bring to the front? Quit all apps and start over?

My computer tells me I purchased the Rod Stewart Christmas album, but I did not. How can I get iTunes to cancel this "purchase". Also this thing has just started playing when I turn on my computer, how do I stop it?

My computer tells me I purchased Rod Stewart's Christmas album. I DID NOT. How do I get iTunes to cancel the purchase. Also, this thing has suddenly started playing when I turn on my computer. How do I make it stop?

It is probably too late to cancel it, but contact the iTunes store support staff at http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html and see what they can do for you.

How do I add songs to a current playlist now that I've downloaded iOS 7 to my iPhone 4? I don't seem to be able to add songs anymore-- when I try to add the song, it just starts playing it instead.

I used to be able to open the playlist, choose to Edit it, then go to the song I wanted to add and the song would have a plus sign next to it and if I tapped the song, it would be added to the playlist however many times I tapped it. Now when I Edit the playlist, I go to the song I purchased to add it and there is no plus sign, but I figured, hey maybe that's new too, and I tap it anyway. Instead of going on my playlist it just starts playing. I even thought, after multiple attempts at this, that if I let the song play all the way through it would go on my list, but that was a failed idea as well.
Does anyone out there know how to fix this? I realize I can probably start a new playlist---or maybe I cant!!! --I haven't even tried! But even if I can, I don't want too because this one has lots of songs in a particular order, and I just want to add my new purchases!
I already greatly dislike the visual changes that came with iOS 7 - so I hope these other issuesare easily fixable....
Thanks!

Hi TakesTwo2Tango,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you should definitely be seeing a plus sign after tapping Edit, so I would try a couple relatively easy things (closing the Music app, resetting the iPhone):
iOS: Force an app to close

iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
