Play label in createChildSymbol timeline

Hi
How do i play a label in createChildSymbol time line?
I've tried ....
sym.$("content").empty();
sym.getComposition().getStage().createChildSymbol("Symbol1","content").play("label1");
and...
sym.$("content").empty();
var myNewChildSymbol = sym.getComposition().getStage().createChildSymbol("Symbol1", "content");
sym.myNewChildSymbol.play('label2');
but they only call up Symbol1 in the content box and play from the beginning of its timeline, not from label1
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can try:
var instance = sym.getComposition().getStage().createChildSymbol( "Symbol1", "content" );
instance.play( "label2" );
And, you can also try:
var instance = sym.createChildSymbol( "Symbol1", "content" );
instance.play( "label2" );
Both run.

  • Premiere hesitates to play anything on my timeline, and when it finally does it's all choppy. How do I fix this?

    I am used to using older versions of premiere, and I've never run into this problem. I worked on my video just yesterday and everything was working fine, and today it waits for like a minute or two before playing anything on my timeline. When it does play, the video is choppy, and the controls are unresponsive. I have checked to see if it's a renderer problem but i can only use the mercury playback software, and it has no problem playing any of the media when i view it in the source monitor. I've tried closing the program and opening it again, and I've tried turning my computer off and then back on as well and it still gives me the same problems. I have even go so far as to try one of the back up saved files and it still has the same issue. Can anyone help?

    Hy ... Check your Videocodec for the Preview and Programmonitor... Sometimes it gets hard with h264 so i'm using ProRes 422 ... u find it in the settings of your sequenze, if not u should check how much cache you let premiere use!

Problem came out the blue, made no conscious changes to settings. FCP 7.0.3. iMac, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5. OS10.8.4. If any other info needed please let me know, will be happy to provide it. Thanx.

    Thank you for the help. Below is my Source footage and sequence settings.
    The other footage I have on the timeline is an mp3 file made in Garage Band and some footage I sent to Motion to edit. I do have some offline media on there since I switched computers but FCP had been working fine for a few months with it on there. I have not tried trashing my FCP Preferences. If I did would I have to back up my project?

  • Unable to play preview clip on timeline Premiere Elements 10

    All of a sudden, I'm unable to preview clips, even in unfinished projects that used to work. I'm running Premiere Elements 10, Windows 8.1, Flash updated etc. These clips are activated, not rendered (red line above) but doesn't show. However, if I play the clip, I can hear the sound. Sometimes the program crashes, and I have to start all over again.
    Update: Now, when I click on the clip on the timeline, preview window shows one frame, while the marker continues to "play" the clip(without showing anything but the first frame as a still picture. When hitting pause again, preview window shows a still where the clip was stopped...This happens on some of the clips on the timeline. Some are just pure black
    Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz 64 bit
    Pls help

    Yes, that could be it!
    I do have a NVIDA graphics card! And it's updated with the latest drivers...
    Now, I'll have to find out how to do a roll back...I'll read the thread you suggested and hope for the best!
    Thanks for the answer!
    Additional info:
    Some of the clips that wont play in the preview or full screen window, shows a still picture when setting thetimeline to it AND THE clicking on the preview window. A still shows up, but nothing happens when a hit play. Some of the clips are from my GoPro Hero3 Black, but they seem to pay fine as long as I havn't used zoom on them. On many GoPro clips I've used zoom to minimize the "fisheye" effect, and then it wont play.

    Any chance you could be part of a growing crowd of Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA video card users who have run into the NVIDIA video card driver issue. For the now of this issue, the answer seems to be to roll back the driver version rather than assure that you have the latest version of it.

  • Playing different labels depending on timeline direction...

    Hi there.
    Here's the issue:
    - I have a timeline with stop() trigers every 1000ms.
    - I have several symbols moving horizontally, stopping at those triggers.
    - There's a central location at the timeline - 3000ms
    - When a symbol reaches (play) that central location, it plays, inside itself, the label "previous_to_center"
    - When a symbol leaves (play) the central location, it plays, inside itself, the label "center_to_next"
    - If a symbol reverses (playReverse) and reaches the central location, I want it to play, inside itself, the label "next_to_center"
    - Finally, if a symbol reverses again (playReverse) and leaves the center location, I want it to play, inside itself, the label "center_to_previous"
    I need the code for this.
    Thanx.

  • Anyone had video just not play when on the timeline?

    Video is just not playing when pulled down to the timeline.  Seems to resolve itself for a bit after I reboot the program.

    Using optimized media should be fine to work with given those specs.
    Does the problem happen often? When you say it doesn't play, I'm not exactly sure what you mean. 
    One thing to check for is that the timeline scrollbar hasn't moved (vertically) so that the issue isn't just that you can't see it due to a scrolling issue. This has happened to me a few times -- especially when zooming in/out. I think it's a bug. But all you have to do is scroll up to get your clips back into view.

  • Label colors in timeline

    I had hoped to organize my used footage in my timeline by highlighting the currently blue label for video clips to a green color.  In the timeline I am able to do that, however when I look at the bin where the clips originated the label colors for all clips, including my used ones, remains blue.  Is there a way where a changed clip label is updated throughout the project?
    I can also used the metadata display to use the video useage field.  Is there a way that can be turned on for the entire project instead of having to go into every single bin and add the metadata display field for video useage?

    There's no way to have the label colors automatically change with usage.  You can file a Feature Request for that.
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    For the columns, you can save your settings and switch to them easily in the Metadata Display window.

  • AS3 plays all Movieclips in timeline before a given frame?!?

    Ok, I am going to try to explain this problem as best I can,
    but it is kind of hard to put into words... It seems like a bug to
    me, but I could be wrong, maybe this is the way AS 3 supposed to
    work.
    I have 4 movieClips in my library named
    "MC1","MC2,"MC3","MC4" Each with 2 layers and 2 frames, on Layer 2
    is just a textfield that says what movieclip it is, Like "MC1"
    which spans 2 frames, on layer 1 I have trace commands...
    On frame 1
    trace("MC1 Start") //this obviously changes to MC2
    Start...etc with whatever movieclip i am in
    on Frame 2
    trace("MC1 Stop")
    On the Stage timeline here is what I have
    Frames 1-4 -- Blank
    Frames 5-10 -- MC1
    Frames 10-14 -- MC2
    Frames 15-19 -- MC3
    Frames 20-24 -- MC4
    If in frame one I say--
    gotoAndStop(15)
    which is where MC3 resides, here's what I get in the output
    window:
    MC1 Play Start
    MC2 Play Start
    MC3 Play Start
    MC3 Play Stop
    If I put:
    gotoAndStop(20)
    Which is where MC4 resides, heres what output says:
    MC1 Play Start
    MC2 Play Start
    MC3 Play Start
    MC4 Play Start
    MC4 Play Stop
    So in AS3 if you go to a frame number each and every
    movieclip before that given frame is loaded into memory and the
    first frame plays?!? Is this how it is supposed to work?
    The reason I even started examining this, is because if you
    have an embedded sound in any of those movieclips and you go to
    frame 20, all embeded sounds before that clip will play as well. Am
    I missing something here, or is this a bug? Please let me know. If
    there are any questions about the problem, I will be happy to
    provide an .fla.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply, but this makes no difference. The
    results are still the same.

  • PP CC not playing back footage from timeline. Playhead moves but program window doesn't update.

    I have an issue that usually comes up a few minutes after using Premiere Pro CC. Everything is fine and then the program window will stop previewing video from the timeline. Nothing else is frozen though. I can still move the playhead in the timeline around and select/highlight clips. But the program window will freeze on a frame and not update when i press play or move the playhead in the timeline. If I quite PP it will close but the icon still shows it as open so I have to "force quit". When I re-open the program it plays fine but the issue eventually comes up in a couple minutes. I'm guessing this has something to do with render issues… I'm using a Macbook Pro bought in early 2011.
    Here are my specs:
    Processor  -- 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory -- 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Startup Disk -- my internal Macintosh HD
    OS -- Lion 10.7.5
    Graphics -- AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
    Thanks!

    Yes I downloaded PP CC on Decebmer 3rd, 2014. I can do that, would that help? I will google about doing that.
    Ok… googled it… It turns out my graphics card doesn't support OpenCL (or CUDA)… it doesn't show up in the lists here: System requirements | Adobe Premiere Pro
    So I will switch to software only. Do you think that will solve the issue?

  • Good quality quicktime movie looks poor when played thru Final Cut timeline

    I created a quicktime file with moving text in After Effects 6.5..when i play the movie file it looks fine..no aliasing or jagged edges on the text...
    when I import the .mov file into finalcut (4.5HD) and immediately launch & play it in the viewer, it also looks fine...
    but when i place the .mov file onto the timeline and play it from there, or when i relaunch that .mov file from the timeline into the viewer, the quality of the text looks degraded...
    ...so i'm thinking it's a setting issue...i don't think it's an AE issue because I was able to get a good quality image into the viewer in Final Cut...I'm using the DV NTSC 48khz standard settings...720 x 480...could it be the 'millions of colors' or the 'YUV video processing' settings selected in the sequence settings?
    ...thanks for any help!
    peace
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    thanks...that helps...i've been watching it back on
    the computer monitor..guess i'll have to do a quick
    dvd burn to see how it appears on tv to see if that
    was the issue...(no monitor or space to use a tv as a
    monitor yet)
    Whoa there! You shouldn't waste time burning a DVD to check the quality of your renders. In fact, you should be working with the video monitor (or TV) hooked up to your DV Deck or DV Camcorder as you work. That way, you can always be aprised of your quality. This is the way the manual says you should be set up at all times. However, you are cutting in a space that does not have room for a small video monitor? Wow, must be a closet or something.
    If a video monitor is not convenient, then you can see an aproximation of the quality you'd see in a video monitor if you do the following: Zoom out your Canvas to precisely 100% and Uncheck Sq. Pixels in the Zoom pop up. You may need to resize the Canvas to see the whole image and if you are working with a small computer screen.

  • Play a frame in timeline from inside 2 movieclips.

    Hi. I have tried everything but it just isn't working.
    On my main timeline I have a MC called "rainbow." Inside "rainbow" I have a MC called "greenbow."
    Inside "greenbow" I have a MC called "meetbtn2"
    I want it to play frame 134 on the main timeline when you click "meetbtn2."
    my code inside greenbow is as follows:
    meetbtn2.onRelease = function () {
    _root.gotoAndPlay(134);
    however it doesn't work! is it because i am inside two MC's?
    I have also tried
    _root.rainbow.greenbow.meetbtn2.onRelease = function () {
    _root.gotoAndPlay(134);
    any help? Thanks!

    i believe you miss understood me. the actionscript and the MC are on the same frame on the same timeline.
    however
    on the main timeline: the MC "rainbow" doesn't appear til frame103
    inside "rainbow": the MC "greenbow" doesn't appear til frame 48
    inside "greenbow": the movieclip that acts as the button"meetbtn2" doesn't appear til frame 11
    however all instances have been named correctly and all actionscript is on the same frame-space as its objects....

  • *** Clips playing white in the timeline

    I just received a FCP project file from my editor and when I play it back in the timeline it all plays back white. We have the same source files but he's on the lastest version of FCP 6 while I'm on the latest of FCP 7. Since I'm the one with the higher version and trying to open it, it shouldn't be a problem, so I'm wondering why this is happening. I tried trashing my preferences and also starting a new sequence and copy/pasting the files in but it still plays back funny.
    Any suggestions would be greatly welcome!
    Thanks in advance.

    What monitor setup do you have?
    I know that the button is missing on MacBook Pro models but your profile lists a Pro tower.
    Let's try something else...
    Deleting FCP Preferences:
    Open a Finder window. Set the view mode to columns:
    Click the house icon that has your name next to it.
    Click the folder "Library" in the next column.
    Find and click the folder "Preferences" in the next column.
    Find and click the folder "Final Cut Pro User Data" in the next column.
    Move the files "Final Cut Pro 7.0 Prefs", "Final Cut Pro Obj Cache" and "Final Cut Pro Prof Cache" to the Trash and empty it.
    When you have a stable set of preference files, download [Preference Manager|http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm] to back them up.

  • Play animation on main timeline from within a mc

    this is probably the most basic question of the day, but how
    do you get the main timeline to play from within a mc?
    say I have a mc called jolly_mc and within it is an action on
    it's timeline at keyframe 10. That action needs to jump to a
    certain frame on the main timeline and play.
    I've tried
    _level0.gotoAndPlay(492);
    _root.gotoAndPlay(492);
    _level0.gotoAndPlay("animation");
    _root.gotoAndPlay("animation");
    and non of these work, can anyone clear the haze in my day :)
    thanks in advance.

    _root.mainText = "Obtain 0.2 grams of Ascorbic Acid using the
    Spattula.";
    This line is fine. It's fine to have full-stops inside a
    string. It doesn't effect the code.
    this._root.bkg.gotoAndStop(3);
    Your pathing is a little strange in this line. As you can't
    go any further up the hierarchical tree than _root, if you're
    referencing objects via the root, it should be the first object in
    the target. So if you want to refer to your target using an
    absolute reference(ie by using root) then your line should read:
    _root.bkg.gotoAndStop(3);
    alternatively, since your AS is in a movieclip inside bkg,
    you can refer to your target using a relative reference like so:
    this._parent.gotoAndStop(3);
    this._level0.bkg.power.powerOne.gotoAndStop(2);
    similar story here. _level0 is the highest up you can go, so
    putting this before it is a little strange. Fixing this using
    absolute referencing:
    _level0.bkg.power.powerOne.gotoAndStop(2);
    or:
    _root.bkg.power.powerOne.gotoAndStop(2);
    or relative referencing(assuming the movieclip where the AS
    is is not power):
    this._parent.power.powerOne.gotoAndStop(2);
    if it is power then you could have simply written:
    powerOne.gotoAndStop(2);
    yes, the syntax you suggested for trace is correct.
    but anyway, i don't think that any of this advice is helping
    you with your problem. sorry i can't see the solution with the
    information you've provided. maybe upload?
    how'd you go with sourcing a flash book?

  • XprtHelp: buttons in mc linked to labels on main timeline?

    and use gotoandStop on that label. But when I click them in testing
    the movie, they don't work. I posted the (very) unfinished swf to
    my url:
