Movie Clip not playing correctly (Flash CS3, AS2)

Hey, I'm making a tutorial for a board game and there's this movie clip that mimics a piece being played. It's basically empty for about 9 frames and then the piece is on the 10th frame. On the 10th frame, I placed a stop(); script. The movie clip has no linkage and no label.
For some reason, on a certain frame, it didn't work. It worked fine on other frames so I copy & pasted from those frames and replaced the movie clip that did not work right. Oddly enough, after I copy & pasted the movie clip, the error spread to the movie clip I copied! I tried it again and again the error spread to what ever clip I copied from. The other movie clips (same item) still functions properly. I never encountered a problem like this. Can anyone please help?

1. you should have no code attached to objects. assign your objects instance names (eg, mc) and use those names in your code.
2. that code should not be in an enterframe loop.
if(_root.action_ryu==1){
mc._alpha=100; // not _Alpha
mc.gotoAndPlay(4);
_root.Ryu._alpha=0;
} else {
_root.Ryu_Attack._alpha=0;

AS3 to make movie clip not play on default?

I created a movie clip that I want to play when a button is
clicked and
stop when another button is clicked.
I have a stop action on the first frame where the 2 buttons
appear and
the movie clips resides. When I test the movie, the movie
clip plays by
default.
How do I set it up so the movie clip does not play until the
user clicks
the play button?
The code I am using:
myPlay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMc);
myStop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopMc);
function playMc(e:MouseEvent):void{
my_mc.play();
function stopMc(e:MouseEvent):void{
my_mc.stop();
Thanks!!!

Not sure if I understand. Where specifically should this be
added to the
code:
myPlay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMc);
myStop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopMc);
function playMc(e:MouseEvent):void{
my_mc.play();
function stopMc(e:MouseEvent):void{
my_mc.stop();
Thanks!

Placed .swf does not play correctly

I have placed a .swf on a page. When exported to pdf the movie does not play correctly. It plays correctly before being placed. I used flash cs4 actionscript 3 to create the .swf.
I have selected the highest level for pdf when exporting.

ok! I figured it out. This is what is happening. Apparently when you place a .swf in indesign and make a button on the page to show the movie when clicked and then export to pdf -- there is a time delay from the time you click on the button and the movie starts to play in a floating window. Its just a few frames of 24 fps movie but that is enought for whatever gaget that reads the movie to miss the first few frames.
So in effect any info in the first few frames is not read. So i had a stop on the first frame that was not being read. I put the stop on frame 7 and now it plays just like I had hoped.
I hope this helps anybody else out that has had a similar problem.

MOV files from Ipad not playing correctly in 2010 Windows PPT presentation

I inserted .mov files taken from Ipad 2 into a.ppt on my work PC. I saved these files to the folder containing all of the videos I am showing in the ppt-- the same folder where the .ppt is located as well. Then I inserted them as I do all videos (I create ppts often for work) -- and the clips that are horizontal play fine but the vertical ones do not play correctly- audio and video not in sync. any remedies? (using ppt 2010, converted files to wmv, didn't work either). I should add that when I viewed these files on my PC (by just clicking the file) they play fine, but they are not rotated correctly. This must have been my fault when I took the videos. However, when I insert them they are rotated correctly but just don't play right - looks like a Japanese movie. please help!

Your page code doesn't give instructions to any browser plug-in and uses the out of date "embed" tag:
embed src="hippiehouseshowreel09.mov" width="460" height="360" hspace="2" align="left"></embed
The same code is used at all of your other popup windows and Internet Explorer doesn't know what to do (so it does nothing).

Online video clips do not play correctly on all browsers

I am unable to play video clips at the right speed without them stalling and stuttering. For example, a typical YouTube clip will not play correctly, so the video will stutter and the sound won't play in time with the video.
This is especially frustrating when wanting to play music video clips as the song will stutter. This happens regardless of browser - Firefox, Safari or Netscape.
I have a broadband Internet connection but wonder whether I need to adjust speed settings somewhere so sound and music play correctly.
I have no problems playing songs via iTunes or watching video clips using Quicktime, it's just the embedded video clips on YouTube etc that won't play correctly.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

Flash video is very CPU intensive, open activity monitor and look at your CPU usage while trying to watch a YouTube video, no doubt it is at 100%.
Unfortunately there isn't much you can do about this - my 400 Mhz G3 can't handle flash video and by the look of some previous posts on the forum I'd be surprised if any can .

Certain flash movies will not play - including Adobe TV movies with Dreamweaver tutorials

For months, certain .swf movies will not play. No error, won't even load the player. I thought it was because of IE8 which I installed several months ago. Now I loaded Firefox and Opera and the movies still do not play in those browsers either. At least I get an error message "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference".
I have newly installed Dreamweaver CS4 and when I launch it, there are links to Adobe TV videos. These will not play. Here is an example of a video that will not play: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/inside-the-dreamlabs/dreamweaver-cs4-live-preview/
I have googled the error but the results seem to be developers talking about code in Action Script 3.
Can someone please help? I have spent hours trying to get this resolved.
My Flash Player version is 10,0,45,2 and I had the issue when I was at 10,0,32 whatever as well.

Ya, it's a very old post. This forum actually has a very high response rate (more than 90%+) thanks to people like Pat, Carl and Xircal who volunteer their time and knowledge to help the community.

Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc

Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc. help!

I would like to offer you some additional hair, but I've pulled mine out as well. I have created a slideshow of my daughter's new house (a very nice place indeed) as a house-warming gift, took all the pix myself with a throw-away camera made into CD's, imported all of the photos, cropped and enhanced with Iaza online free photo editor, re-saved the new ones to a folder, imported the selected ones into iPhoto, had the best thematic photo printed in 8x10 format, bought the black DVD's, made the MPEG-4 movie as well as the suggested exportable to iPhone, created a folder with the slides, crafted a nice playlist in iTunes, merged it all in iPhoto, but cannot successfuly export it into iDVD. The technical documentation and writing for some of this stuff is sloppy and sometimes unintelligible. The instructional videos are incomplete. The One-on-One fellow was most helpful the other day and said Apple doesn't really have or support an functional DVD creation tool and suggested I choose one or another "app" at the "app store", but the reviews for the two major ones are shallow in depth and I haven't yet sprunf for the $20-$40 download so I can re-experience the difficult learning curve. The Macintoshs I once used were incredibly intuitive; the iMac requires some study. The slideshow I have is imperfect becauae it keeps reverting to custom slide-specific choices I have decided (several times) that I do not want, but it keeps slipping back into "Ken Burns" mode and some of the photos don't work in that mode because of their format. But I will settle for less-than-perfect if I can figure out the best way to export the MPEG-4 I have created into a Maxell DVD-R some time before my daughter's toddlers aged 4 and 2 get into kindergarten.

I would like a movie clip to play repeat itself everytime a button is pressed

Hello,
I am new to actionscripting but not Flash, I am using Flash
MX 2004 for a college project at the moment. I have created an
interface which features four buttons, each button activates a
different movie clip. This works fine but only on the first time to
press the button if you press the button again the movie clip does
not play again, I would like the movie clip to play EVERY time the
button is pressed. Here is the script that I have created in a
seperate layer called actions, if that helps:
ellaimage._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
pellabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = true
textboxmc._visible = true
Pellaimage._visible = true;
Pellaimage.gotoAndplay(1)}
Betabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = true
Betabox._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Betaimage.gotoAndplay (1) }
Yakuzabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Yakuzapic._visible = true
Yakuzapic.gotoAndplay (1) }
Pornobutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Pellaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Betaimage._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = true
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = true
boxmovie._visible = true
Pornopic.gotoAndplay (1) }
// this command stops the timeline
stop ();
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance

No that doesn't work, that isn't what I want to to be
repeated.
In the below script I want textboxmc (which is a movie clip)
to restart and play again everytime pellabutton is released.
pellabutton.onRelease = function () {
stop ();
Betaimage._visible = false
Yakuzapic._visible = false
Pornopic._visible = false
textboxmc._visible = false
Betabox._visible = false
Pornobox1._visible = false
Yakuzabox1._visible = false
boxmovie._visible = true
textboxmc._visible = true
Pellaimage._visible = true;
Pellaimage.gotoAndplay(1)}
Please can anyone help?

*Class Project - Please help: Why does my movie clip keep playing over and over?

I am desperate for help on this one as its my Final Flash
class project and I just can't get my scenes/movie clips to play in
the order I want them to.
I have Scene 1 (movie clip 1) that plays and then Scene 2
(movie clip 2) plays. The problem is that Scene 2 (or movie clip 2)
repeats itself over and over again. I can't get it to go back to
Scene 1 (movie clip 1) to play that again.
I want it go to to this Scene 1 and actually start at a
certain frame to continue on with the story.
I have named my movie clip instances.
What am I doing wrong? I went into movie clip 2, into
actions, and movie clip control, and I don't really see a way to
tell it to go back and play movie clip 1. Trying to see how to
refer back to the instance name of the movie clip and get it to
play.
Ideas? Please please? I would be forever greatful.
Angie

As Nickels55 said, above, scenes add unnecessary complexity.
So the answer to this is: YES. Scenes are awkward in Flash. Never
use them in any final project. Put everything on a single timeline
in a single scene, and you will have much better control of the
project.

Embedded Quicktime not playing correctly in InDesign PDF - please help!!

ok - I have an issue that I can't work out and I'm hoping someone can help - tried searching for an answer to no avail. I've just built my first interactive PDF portfolio in InDesign. I should point out that I'm a producer/editor, so my knowledge of InDesign & Acrobat is not extensive. The PDF includes some embedded Quicktime movies. The movies play normally on one of my monitors (Samsung 1680x1050), but will not play correctly on my other two monitors (2x Samsung 1280x1024) - the audio plays and the play controller appears to be working but the video area is just all white...HOWEVER...if I open the PDF and play just one of the videos on my 1680x1050 monitor first, then all videos play correctly on all monitors. Have tried opening the PDF on another desktop and the movies do not work (in the same manner as above)- also tried on my laptop and the movies play correctly. Please help if you can - I need to get this out to clients and I'm baffled!! Thank You!

Is it as easy as wmode: transparent after shoving the swf into a table??? does the transparent option make everything outside the table dissappear? thanks...

Hi just wanted to let you know I solved most of my XP problems with my new IPOD. It won't recognise the IPOD or driver and froze and locked up and then the battery died. After hours of trying different things here is what I did. I completly closed computer down. Waited 15 minutes turned on and reloaded everything. I put the usb cable in but not hooked up to IPOD. I turned off Mcaffee (all of it). After my computer came on. I then went and closed everything I didn't need in the bottom toolbar. (taskbar). I then reloaded the software and waited. Took forever to reload and I don't know why but whatever it worked but I DID NOT HOOK UP THE IPOD LIKE IT SAID! I instead shut down the computer after loading the software and waited 5 minutes and turned it back on. I again waited and shut of mcaffee. It loaded everything fine this time and said new hard ware and drivers detected. I plugged my IPOD in and YES I WAS UP AND RUNNING (THIS IS AFTER 6 HOURS OF PLAYING WITH OTHER THINGS!) I am able to load and play, burn, watch movies, see pictures and everything your suppose too! The only thing I see different than the instructions is I left my usb cable plugged in and when it said to eject the disk I didn't. I also didn't plug in the IPOD (5th Gen) and then I shut down waited and then restarted the computer. I hope this helps others because I know the feeling of wanting to return something you paid dearly for and worked hard at saving money to buy one and it doesn't work. My only thing I dislike about apple is they didn't supply a ac adapter for the IPOD and the instructions say to plug it up when trying to charge battery. DUHHHHHH, ya can't do that if ya don't have one and stores are closed and won' open until Monday! But at least I am up and running. I just hate having to plug up IPOD to computer daily to charge the battery which only last a half a day1

HELP....AVCHD / MPEG files not playing correctly!

I have been trying to download video that was shot with the new Sony FS100 camera that I'm told are AVCHD or MPEG files to my older Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 timeline, but they are not playing correctly. When I reverse the field dominance, the image plays better but the sound is strange (I was able to speed the sound to 450% and it worked better, but then the balance of the sound from the clip is lost somewhere.).
Any suggestions to make these files play and work correctly? I tried converting them to AVI files but that showed up completely black on the timeline! Anything I've tried either affects the video or audio negatively! I try either makes the image play or stutterThis was shot in regular SD format, NOT HD, so they should be able to play on a standard timeline. Can anyone suggest anything to help please? Much appreciated!

Thanks for your reply, I ran it through Media Info. Here are the results:
Container & general information:
MPEG-PS: 290 Mib 4min22s
1 Video stream: MPEG video
1 Audio stream: AC-3
First Video Stream:
8833 Kbps, 720*480 (4:3), at 29.970 fps, MPEG video (NTSC) (version 2) (Main@main) (Custom Matrix BVOP)
First Audio Stream:
256 Kpbs, 48.0 Khz, 16 bits, 2 channels, AC-3 (DVD-Video)
Please let me know where to go from here. Thanks so much!

Musik with Dialog not playing correctly

Hi there.
Music with spoken texts is not played correctly on my T410i with Windows 8 pro installed.
For example, the soundtrack to Kill Bill1
Track 5: Queen of the Crime Council - dialogue excerpt from film
Track 6: "Ode To Oren Ishii" - The RZA
The problem occurs in all music players (iTunes, Windows Media Player, the Windows8 App "Music" also flash based player of Sky.fm have this problem (e.g. http://www.sky.fm/play/altrock) .
Hardware: Lenovo T410i with Nvidia / Intel graphic card combination.
What I've done so far:
* reinstalled Drivers (Conexant 20585 SmartAudio HD).
* reinstalled Codec pack (Klite Codec Pack (32-bit and 64-bit)
* turned off the advanced features (bass management, Virtual Surround, ...) in the options of the speakers
* switched off the detection of communication activities.
* Speaker Setting is "Stereo" (two Speakers)
I have no idea why this happens, as soon as there is a spoken text in the music, it starts sounding bad with echo, cracking noise and the spoken texts are very very silent.
I don’t know how to fix this.

I am having the same problem with my Jam Pack loops. I bought the jam packs a few years ago and have been using them fine with my iBook. I put them on an external drive (trying to keep the iMac HD empty) and dropped the folder on my loops browser. They've worked fine with my iBook for years. I just got a new iMac and, again, dropped the folder on my loops browser. They play fine in the browser, but when I drop them in the timeline I only hear a faint beat.
Any suggestions?

Playlist not playing correctly since updating

Playlist is not playing correctly. Anyone else have this problem and fixed it? 80 gig old black Ipod 5th generation. Since updating Itunes, play the first song, then will jump around to different songs not in playlist....

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
*[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check for problems with preferences.
You can check the <b>gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
