IE tries to load all movies if set to 'autoplay'
I have created modules with many video clips included. These are all set to autoplay when the user gets to the slide. This works fine in Safari, Chrome and FF. However in IE 7 and 8 the browser tries to load ALL the movies when the swf first loads leading to crash/hang.
If I turn off autoplay it behaves - but I would rather the videos autoplay when the user gets to a page.
Any ideas!
Hi Vish
I have tested on IE7 under XP and IE8 under Vista
In both cases it seems that IE (only) tries to load the movies in the module
multiple times. I have used an Http analyser to log calls to the server and
with IE see multiple loads of the same movie before the module has started
like below:
18 False + 5.344 True 145.610 s GET 200
22.37 M (None)
http://learning.pukkafilms.com/file.php/2/moddata/scorm/13/mod1.flv
19 False + 11.578 True 139.345 s GET
200 22.52 M video/x-flv
http://learning.pukkafilms.com/file.php/2/moddata/scorm/13/mod1.flv
I have tried turning off autoplay on the movies, and tried turning off the
'prloader' option when publishing and tried turning off the autoplay when
publishing but IE seems to still try and download any movies linked in the
module.
If you want to try on windows 7 you can access the course at
learning.pukkafilms.com and use the enrolement key 'trial'
Of course it may be a moodle thing!

I have now run quite a few tests... each module I have contains around 5 movies. If I split the module into 5 sub modules and link from module to module, only the first movie loads in IE and they all play OK. But this is a bore as new SWFs have to load every 3 or 4 pages. However it is a workaround!
I am still interested in why IE tries to preload all the movies linked to from a single Captivate SWF. I have updated to latest players and am using the 'patched' captivate 5 to recover from last flash player update.
The problem is not evident when playing locally - but I suspect the overhead on IE is smaller.

Internal Server Error when trying to load a movie
Before I visit a friend to solve a problem on her Mac (latest OS and QuickTime installs already done), perhaps you can offer tips on things to look for: Whenever she tries to load a movie file from the Web (either in Safari or directly in the QuickTime app), she gets a "500 Internal Server Error".
What should I be looking for?
Lots Mac OS X (10.4.5)Try a different browser such as Firefox to determine if the problem is with the QuickTime Internet plug-ins and their related settings. (You might also bring with you a functional copy of the plug-ins from your /Library/Internet folder as reinstalling QuickTime can sometimes be a bit of a hassle.)
Next, Try downloading the movie instead of playing it. In Safari, paste the url of the movie in the Safari downloads window. If it doesn't download, obviously, it can't play. (Assuming its not a stream rtsp:// url)
Next, pull QuickTime preference and plist files from /Library and her user Library folders, restart, then try again. -
I am trying to load a movie onto my ipod touch and it is wanting to remove all my apps
I don't want to remove all my apps. I just want to load a movie.
What exactly happens when you try to redownoad by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
What exactly happens whne you try to download a free app?
Are the apps "waiting"?

Hi,
I have a "map_mc" movie clip that has over 500 movie clips(counties). I also have the countynames in xml format. I want to be able to
1. in a loop get a list of all movie clips
2. and in a dynamic text box assign the county name to the movie clip (from xml).
Is it possible to get the names of all movie clips and then assign the countynames?
I have the xml part semi working and on mouseover can display the name but is stuck on the movie clip part.
I am trying to avoid typing all the county names and in the future will be adding census and other data to the xml.
can someone help?if you had an xmlList of 500 countynames, and if the 500 movieclips inside maps_mc each had names such as mc0, mc1, mc2, etc, you could loop thru them like this:
for(var i = 0; i < xmlList.length(); i++){
//get reference to county movieclip
var mc = maps_mc.getChildByName("mc" + i);
//then add listeners
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overMe);
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, outMe);
function overMe(e:MouseEvent){
//the county you rolled over
var mc = e.target;
//extract the number from the name
var n = Number(mc.name.substr(2));
//use n to get countyname from xmlList
var countyname = xmlList[n];
trace(countyname);
//now add countyname to a textField
textField.text = countryname;
function outMe(e:MouseEvent){
//clear textField
textField.text = ""; -
This is becoming too much. I'll have Google Chrome open and nothing else yet it still reaches 70 to 85 degrees celsius. I've tried everything but nothing works. None of these forums or videos are helping. Does anyone know what could be causing this? And how can i stop this? I'd appreciate it
Take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

Hi I have tried to erase all data and setting
Hi I have tried this so many times and I just get stuck with the blank screen and the white circle I have done it for over six hours and nothing has happened… hence to why I want to restore factory settings… I just seem to be going round in circles and nothing is happening… I have the Ipad 3 4g and it’s version is the latest one… Please can anyone help me to either a different way of restoring it which I may put out there a successful and easy and quick way!! Please help!
Since you've just admited that your iPad is jailb%%^&, there's nothing anyone here can do to help you. It is against forum rules to discuss a JB'd iPad and since you've done it, and you're stuck, you should now see why doing this is just not bright.
Sorry, but you'll have to turn someplace else........ -

I have thousands of favorites and Firefox is my web-browser of choice. Sadly I'm backed up on what bookmarks I have stored and if the websites are still active or not.

My PC supports Windows 7 OS which I have as a multiboot alternative when my PC starts up.
I have continually waited and it says Firefox is not responding and I may be able to see the multiple tabs opened in my browser but cannot navigate or access them.
I have read on various sites that users have had as many as 1500 bookmarks load at once in tabs in the Firefox browser version that are outdated.
I have not been successful with just loading 50 bookmarks my goal is to be able to have 500 tabs loaded in firefox with webpage loading stopped on all of them. I will choose reload for about 10 tabs at a time to view webpage content and then close and move on to the rest.
My ultimate goal is to clear up the Thousands of bookmarks I have piling on for the past 6 years and some are duplicates or similar page sites.
Their is no Firefox 3rd party addons that I could locate that would allow this. Only to restrict the number of tabs loaded by giving warning messages when limit is reached.
Please assist me as it will greatly help me with finally deleting and re-organizing my Favorite and frequent websites in my Browser of choice Firefox.
The email is generic for privacy but it is valid please respond with methods on how I can achieve my request or suggestions on how I can modify my browser or PC settings to allow this. Thanks Firefox Administration Team.
I edited with a recent Workaround added to Troubleshoot section.
If there is a keyboard shortcut or easier way to do this would someone please let me know?Firebug is notorious for causing problems like you described.
Disable it when you don't need it or install it in a 2nd Profile. Then you can launch the 2nd Profile separately to use Firebug and not affect what you are doing in the 1st Profile, -
Loading a movie to a particular frame of that movie
hello all, i am trying to load a movie and make it stop at a
frame number 3, so i am using this script
on (press) {
loadMovie("pressLarge.swf",_level2.gotoAndStop(3));
so i would load my movie presslarge.swf on level 2 and make
it stop at frame 3 of that movie, what am I doing wrong? thanks in
advanceYou can't do it that way.
You need to load the movie and then tell it to go to Frame 3.
But...if you simply stack the actions like this:
on (press) {
loadMovie("pressLarge.swf",_level2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(3);
It will work in the Flash IDE but fail on the server because
the movie is not fully loaded when the second action is called.
You need to track the loading and when it is done tell the
movie to gotoAndStop. This is much easier using MovieClipLoader's
loadClip than loadMovie. -

I 'm having a problem trying to load all my pages on Facebook,......iPad loads maybe one full screen here and then won't go any further. Even the loading circle ....lefthand top.....won't go round? I'm getting my emails in just fine ,it's just a few sites .......news.com.au loads okay and I can 'turn'over to the next screen etc but the minute I get on Facebook, this darned pad has a 'brain lock!'
My big PC is working okay ,can get everywhere on Facebook but not my iPad?
Wireless is connected too so what can be wrong? Only had this for 8 months ,not an old pad by any means. It's been like this for about 24 hours now .when I hit a page link ,it just sits and looks at me:) No loading circle or anything!
Appreciate some suggestions,please?
I live in West Oz.

I have an iPhone 4. I recently updated. It loaded all my iTunes music purchases but not the music I had on my computer. This music was on my iPhone before I updated. I have tried re-sycing but not getting anywhere. Says it cannot locate my music files but I see it on my lap top but cannot play it or get it on my iPhone. Can anyone walk me through this?

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again. -
im trying to play my online classes and it worked fine yesterday and now today its stuck on the loading screen
I think you are trying to import some movie that is not supported by QuickTime. As is known to all, MOV is the best format for QuickTime, so, you can try to convert your movie to MOV. Just have a try using this MOV Converer in iTunes store.

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.
