ITunes data into a flash movie?

Is there any way to show what's currently playing in iTunes,
inside a flash movie. Even better, could it show the details of a
playlist? MSN Messnger for example can show what you are currently
listening to, so the same idea applies. This is not intended to be
online, it is purely on my computer.
~ Thanks, Alex

You can do this with AppleScript on OS X, not sure if there
is a
windows equivaleny.

Passing multiple session values from cold fusion into a flash movie

Hello all,
I know that to pass multiple variables into a flash movie
you could use the embed tag like this(with the & between each
variable):
<embed
flashvars="variable1=value1&variable2=value2"
></embed>
Now to pass a single session variable from coldfusion in i
did the following; which worked:
<embed
src="ASdb.swf"
FlashVars="UserName=<cfoutput>#session.userName#</cfoutput>"
width="550" height="400" autostart="true">
</embed>
Note that i had to use the cfoutput tags to get the value
stored in the variables. Now; i tried to do the same thing for two
session variables and the second one does not get read in. Here was
my code:
<embed src="ASdb.swf"
FlashVars="UserName=<cfoutput>#session.userName#</cfoutput>&testTypeID=<cfoutput>#session .testTypeID#</cfoutput>"
width="550" height="400" autostart="true">
</embed>
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you
very much in advance.

Hold on there was a little error: My final code that did not
work was the following:
<embed src="ASdb.swf"
FlashVars="UserName=<cfoutput>#session.userName#</cfoutput>&testTypeID
=<cfoutput>#session.testTypeID#</cfoutput>"
width="550" height="400" autostart="true">

Need Your Help with Loading SWF into another Flash Movie!

Hello,
I have created TWO Flash movies. They work just fine
individually, but I get problem when I put one into another one!
The main Flash is a Menu and the second one if a Photo Album.
The Menu is series of animation (Moving Objects) which finally
comes into rest and create the menu. The photo album is another SWF
file which is called with in the first Flash Movie (The Menu). The
SWF file is loaded as follow into the Main Flash.
MovieClip.prototype.drawRect = function(x, y, w, h) {
this.beginFill(0xFF0000, 100);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0);
this.endFill();
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc6", 6);
mc6.lineStyle (3, 0x000000, 100);
mc6.drawRect(-77, -17, 20, 20);
mc6._xscale = 100;
mc6._yscale = 100;
loadMovie("photoAlbum.swf", mc6);
Problem arises when I click on the Play Button of the
photoAlbum.swf (Photo Album) since the execution of the play button
causes the Flash starts once again from the beginning of the entire
Flash Movie (Beginning of the animation creating the menu) and it
simply jumps into the Firm One of my Flash Movie.
Could you tell me how I can isulate what is in layer 6 (Where
the photoAlbum is loaded to) from the rest of my Flash Movie?
I hope I managed to explain my problem. I would like to take
this opportunity to thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Hello Anya,
I have realized the problem arises from the Wait Function
which causes the Photo Album to pause for a period of time (Two
Seconds) once a Photo is fully displayed (I have Fade in/out Photo
Album). I realized everything works OK once I remove the function
and rather left the Photos to be flipped without any pausing (This
is an Auto-loading Album which simply Flips the photos!).
Here is the Wait Function which is causing all the trouble.
function wait()
stop();
var myInterval = setInterval(function ()
play();
clearInterval(myInterval);
}, 2000);
Thank you so much for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Does anyone know how to put Itunes music into a flash drive?

I'm trying to put my music from my Mac Book Pro into a flash drive so I can play it in the car.

cristian19862 wrote:

Highlight the tracks you want in your iTunes library. Insert the flash drive into your computer, open it so it looks like a folder, and simply drag the highlighted tracks to it.
This puts a copy of each file onto your flash drive, and does not change anything in your library.
If you normally run iTunes in full screen mode, make it smaller so you can do the drag,

Just copy the entire /Music/iTunes/folder (or use Migration Assistant to copy User folder).

Getting html into a flash movie

A client is concerned with getting some html text picked up
by the search engines. I've already created a flash site they are
happy with. Now they are asking if I can actually make part of
their flash site include some html text layed over the flash movie
or something like that.
All I could think of was some way (perhaps with javaScript)
of making the buttons in the swf movie load html text.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks.
A
P.S. Someone mentioned the "SWFObject method" but I was
curious if there was another way to do this. Remember the main
concern here is that search engines can pick up the text.

That's the way to go if you want search engines to spider a
Flash site.
SWFObject writes the Flash content to a <DIV> on your
page. Inside that div
element, you place your HTML page... you can do dynamic stuff
with PHP,
whatever. If your user doesn't have Flash, or if a spider
hits the page,
they will see the HTML content within the div. If they do
have Flash, then
SWFObject overwrites the div with the Flash, and your user
sees the Flash.
Works a treat...
If you want an example: www.arandell.com
Turn off JavaScript and refresh, and you'll see the HTML
version. Google
spiders this site perfectly.

About html banner into a flash movie

I have a web site done in flash which is a main movie and
everything else is loaded into this movie, and i created a space to
put my affiliate banners. But all affiliate banners is html code .
How do i put them o show them.Thanks

Okay, so my terminology is inaccurate. Sorry, don't mean to
be misleading. This is a sample of the AS code that you can use on
the button that you place over the image:
on (release) {
//Goto Webpage Behavior
getURL("
http://www.youraffiliate.com","_blank");
//End Behavior
}

Upload local PSD or EPS file into flash-movie at runtime

Hi there, I would like to upload a local PSD or EPS file into a flash-movie at runtime. I'm sure the data will have to be encoded into a PNG file for it to be displayed properly in the movie to include any transparency. Any ideas? I can't find an EPSEncoder or PSDEncoder. Thanks.

That's a bumpy road, especially considering the rapid pace of PSD evolvement. You can always find a disgruntled coder trying to deal with the process of unpacking PSD but if you look there's some older libs still out there trying to do it, YMMV. You really need to keep the PSD simple however.
I remember a while back AlivePDF could read EPS files, although I'm not sure to what extent. Might be worth a try.

'Reading' PDF into Flash Movie

All,
I have a client who is looking to have a 'configurator'
developed in Flash. What it needs to do is to 'read' a vector
graphic which is uploaded to the web server in PDF format into the
flash movie for manipulation. The manipulation may include scaling
the image size or rotating the image.
Upon completion of manipulation of the image the user would
submit the results of the manipulation which would pass parameters
back to the application server/database which would allow my
customer to print the resulting image in volume.
I guess the question are as follows:
Can you read the vector graphic from a PDF and pull it into
a Flash movie?
Can a configurator of this type be built?
Not only do I need to know IF it can be done, I need to
subcontract someone to do the work. I would also need to integrate
this into the rest of the application which will be ColdFusion 7
and Oracle 10g. Any takers, please email me.
Thanks,

Embedding video in a flash movie

I am trying to embed a video (.wmv or mpeg) into my flash movie and Whenever i click import video and select my video it says that it is not supported. I have looked online and it says that flash should support these file types. It allows me to choose a skin and everything for the player but it will not play when I put it in the timeline. Help please

No they are not. The pages are withing a folder called
"Pages", and the FLV files too. The main book file that calls the
pages is on the root folder. I'm not at home now, so I will have to
wait until I can test this, but you think this might be the issue?
Thanks a lot for your input, I'll let you know as soon as I
check that out.

Can Help be loaded into a flash application?

I am looking for help solutions that will fit inside another
application, a flex app, that would load inside a flash popup
window. RoboHelp outputs a hybrid of flash and html, correct? Is
there a way to output just swf format so it can be loaded into
another application?

Flash movie using XML

On the development version of a site, I have created a flash
movie that uses an XML file that refers to the filenames of images
and their respective captions that are then loaded into the flash
movie.
The images are loaded 2 at a time, into movie containers
within the movie, and then the movies containing the images cycle
through the images one at a time, one movie container fading out
revealing the next image below it, etc. etc.
Basically, I have used this on the site for many photo
galleries. Each one uses the same flash file (in its own folder on
the server, with its respective "images" subdirectory) coupled with
an XML file (all in the same folder on the server) that tells the
flash file where the images are, and in what order, and their
related captions.
There are 9 photo galleries, therefore 9 folders on the
server, each with their own flash and XML and JPEG image files. For
3 specific galleries, the flash file does not load images on some
computers using IE. On the same computers, all other galleries work
fine.
Can anyone even guess what could be causing this??
Many thanks in advance,
Armo

I have a copy of my iTunes data and I'm looking to restore it all back into a new version of iTunes reloaded after a hard drive crash. How do I do this?

After having a hard drive crash, I've reloaded Windows 7 and all of my applications on a new hard drive. I have also downloaded and installed a new version of iTunes on my computer. I now want to restore all of my iTunes tracks, videos, movies, books, podcasts and all my playlists into the new version of iTunes from a back up of all of my previous hard drive before it crashed. I have tried importing the data but iTunes drops all kinds of data (artist names, album names, track number, etc.) and have to now manually go through all of my iTunes data (18,000 tracks) to restore the data. The data consists of a combination of purchased tracks (approx. 6,000) and my own personal CDs copied into iTunes. I need help badly here as I'm lost on how to proceed. Thanks.

Hi Toboggan,
If you are looking to restore your iTunes data from a backup, you may find the following article useful (while it is focused on moving between computers, many of the steps should also apply to your situation):
