Is flash playing?

I have spent a lot of time trying to find out if it is
possible to detect if a flash 8 file is playing or if it has
stoped. Basicly I need a property (boolean) in the MovieClip class
like "isPlaying". In earlyer versions of flash I have extended the
play - stop - gotoAndPlay - gotoAndStop functions and applied code
that sets a boolean value, but I have not succeeded in doing so in
Flash8. There are several solutions like using onEnterFrame, and
intervals to check for diffrences in _current frame, but I'm
looking for a more "clean" code. In my project I am loading several
swf's therefore I cannot create an extended version of the
MovieClip, unless it is possible to modify the class files in "Firs
Run\Classes\FP8"
I was supprised not to fint much about this issue, please let
me be adviced if you have any experiences in this concern.

I guess it is possible, but I still dont see how.
In my project I have to flash files, a main file which I
embed in html, and a "sub" file which is beeing loaded into a
container. In earlyer versions of my project I had a code in the
first keyframe of the sub file, which was simular to this:
this.play_org = function = play;
play = function () {
this.play_org();
this.m_bPlaying=true;
I olso had simular to the above code for stop - gotoAndPlay -
gotoAndStop. The main flash file checks on diffrent intervals if
the sub movieclip is playing, and triggers diffrent events based on
the result.
The old code does not work in flash 8, so I have to find
another way/code. Do you know if it is possible to re-write the
code in the folder "Firs Run\Classes\FP8" that adds the above
functionality to all flash files I create?

Firefox mobile 6 is still not support flash playing?

Waiting for several months, ff6 mobile is still not support flash playing...have a bit disappointed!

Adobe and Google made several non standard changes to the standard plugin system. This has required the engineers working on Firefox mobile to try and understand the changes without any guidance from Adobe or Google. This takes a lot of effort and is not trival.

Hiya, Mike,
It's pretty tough to work through pasted-in code. If you can, please upload a page to a server, so we can see your pages in context. We'll be able to download it and look at it.
That said, you can do this: Find the beginning of an editable region in Code View. It will look like this:

Click anywhere in that tag, between the opening bracket and the closing bracket.
Then, on the vertical toolbar on the left side of the Code window, click on the "Collapse Full Tag" button. It is the one with two arrows pointing at each other. This will collapse that entire editable region. Then click the button with the two arrows pointing away from each other. That will re-open the editable region, but will highlight it.
If you have nested regions, you will find the other inside one of the editable regions. If you copy the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable and do a search on it in that document, you will find the nested region.

Safari and adobe flash play

When using safari and try to use adobe flash play a pop up window shows saying I need to download adobe. I have down loaded adobe and installed the latest version and nothing. Adobe works on firefox. Any help?

1. System Preferences > Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
     Press the "Delete All" button
     Install Adobe Flash Player.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
   Download it first.
    Follow the prompts and install it.
    Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
2. Allow Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins > "Allow plug-ins"
    Enable it.
    Press " Manage Website Settings" button for more options.
3. Safari > Preferences > Privacy
    Press the button “ Remove All Website Data”.

Flash plays the ad video, but cannot make the switch to the main video.

Flash plays the advertisement video that runs prior to the main video, but then always displays "We're sorry, an unexpected error has occurred. Please try again or select a different video." when it should automatically switch to playing the main video - IE8 has no problem seamlessly switching from playing the ad video to playing the main video. This is a consistent problem across various websites with ads playing before videos.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Where can i find simple flash play/stop button tutorial

Can anyone help me where can i find simple flash play/stop
button tutorial. All i need to import a icon play/stop button, when
click it load wav file.
How can i attach media.fla
when u click btn
on(release) {
CodePlayer.start();
on(release) {
CodePlayer.stop();
action script
CodePlayer = new Sound();
CodePlayer.loadSound("ContactUs.wav",true);

OK your sorta close. the .wav file "ContactUs.wav" couldn't
be too large a file, and you can't use 'loadSound' with a .wav, it
would need to be an mp3 file and you also have it set to be a
streaming file, which I would image is not necessary.
So under File>>import select the wav file and add it to
the Library. Select it, right click, and select 'linkage'. Enter a
name for the identifier like 'contact_id' and hit OK. Now go back
to your code on frame one, main timeline and change the code you
have to:
var CodePlayer:Sound = new Sound();
CodePlayer.attachSound("contact_id");
Now in your button handlers change to:
on(release) {
_parent.CodePlayer.start();
on(release) {
_parent.CodePlayer.stop();
}

Down loading flash play on a table

down load a flash play on a table.

Well, Pat has a point - you're mumbling. Anyway, what version of Flash Player you will need depends on what tabletz and we don't know that. That aside, Adobe has ceased support for Flash Player mobile and only provides critical security updates. Games or whatever therefore should be downloaded as native apps.

* How about flash play 8 Garbage Collector working?

Hi, I need to add some Image controls dynamically, yes,the
number of those are unpredictable.
My code to create them like this:
quote:
public function addImg(name:String, x:Number, y:Number):void
var sm1:Image = new Image();
sm1.source = "imgs/down_medium.gif";
sm1.name = name;
sm1.x = x;
sm1.y = y;
this.addChild(sm1);
Then, it appeared in my application. if I add numbers of
Image in my stage, they eat my memory crazily.
so I want to kill some Image which is not in use, but I
crashed.
An Image named "img4kill" in stage, it's index in
this.getChildren() is4, and it holds a image which size is about
230K.
I tried to kill it like this:
quote:
this.removeChildAt(4);
yes, it's remove from the stage in faith, but I watched the
memory that the browser using, before and after killing it.
I found the memory it takes is not released.
How can I kill it from both the stage and memory ? I tried
the global function "delete" ,but failed too.
I know that flash play 8.5 and later use a powerfull
GC(garbage collector), but in the sample above, it dose't work for
me.
who can save me from this mud layer?any ideas?
thanks a lot .
(sorry about my ugly english)
[email protected]

Don't worry, the garbage collector will work very well in this case (and in every other case too :) ). It will only collect an object when no more references are pointing to it. Your array still holds a reference to all the items it contains (unless you explicitly do array[index] = null).
There are only three ways that I know of to destroy a reference to an Object: 1). Set the reference to null 2). Let the reference fall out of scope 3) reassign the reference to another object
The garbage collector will also be able to collect objects that have a cyclical references as long as none of the objects in the cycle are reachable.
It pays to understand the ins and outs of garbage collection and memory management in the VM. Knowing that will let you know, for example, that allocating an Object in Java is a very cheap operation (while it is pretty expensive in C/C++).
Check http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp10283/ and http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp11253/ and for more details about the GC
Also don't worry about the performance impact of setters and getters, either the javac compiler or the Virtual Machines Just In Time Compiler will inline those small methods.
In short don't worry about such low level performance problems and concentrate on your coding style and algorithms. The Hotspot JVM is an amazingly efficient piece of software. It also include a lot of optimizations that work very well in optimizing "standard" code. The more normally you code, the faster your program will be, so don't try clever optimizations tricks, they probably won't work well in java.
Read the following articles for some discussion about performance in Java:

Should i have an install in the flash play settings under Plug in Version?

Should i have an install in the flash play settings under Plug in Version?

I'm not sure I understand the question.
Do you have an "install" and want to knwo if it shoud be there, or are you looking for one?
I've never seen "Install" as an option in the plugins manager for any browser, because the plugins listed are already installed, or they wouldn't be in the list,

Flash plays very laggy/slow in firefox.

I have this problem for a while, The Flash player doesn't work in my Firefox browser. It works great in Chrome and IE.
When I log on a site that has flash, the mouse cursor gets really heavy and the flash video is very laggy and slow.
It's not the case on YouTube or any other Video site I try. However if I go to : http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
the flash animation on the top of the page is laggy and slow.
I had recently found out that this is also the case with another application I use: CakePoker (http://cakepoker.com/en/Default.aspx).
It's makes it impossible to play.
I've been trying to fix it for a while, uninstalled and reinstalled several times, with no success.
Help please.
Thanks in advance

Are you saying it's a well known issue?
At least It isn't only me...
Can anyone help me please?

Flash play works, but not test movie

Admittedly, I am still very new to Flash and have worked
through some of the tutorials. I created some animated text using
the size and rotate feature as well as the alpha to lighted it up.
I have 4 different layers with different text on each layer that
comes in at different frames. When I "play" the frames it works
great, but when I choose "Test Movie" it shows 2 frames of my work
around 25 and 26. What am I missing and/or should I have created
this another way?
Thank you
