Problem with bottons in a clip

Hi
I created a clip in which I've put several bottons... the idea is to create a menu that drops under the botton to give a choice of several subclass... Exemple for my botton media I want a submenu dropping under with the bottons "video" "music" "photo"
I'm using flash CS3 and I've created an image on my timeline, at the end of the dropping menu animation, with the action scrip that follows:
     stop()
     photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5);
     function b5(e:MouseEvent):void {
     root.gotoAndPlay("Pho");}
The idea is to get out of the clip "media" which contains the bottons and to move at the label Pho on my main scene.

for help in forums, you should copy and paste your error message, if you see one.
in this situation, i believe this will stop the error message:
     stop()
     photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5);
     function b5(e:MouseEvent):void {
     MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay("Pho");}

  • A really annoying problem with a button/movie clip

    I am having a problem with a button! its driving me insane
    because i managed to do it last week, but that was by chance and
    now i can't remember how i did it!
    I can get the button (i'm using gelright from the common
    libraries panel) and convert it to a movie clip(by pressing F8) and
    even attach a behaviour but when i play the movie it doen't work!
    when i move the curser over the button it changes into a hand, but
    will not act like a button, even though i have set the behaviour to
    'on release, go to and play keyframe 2'.
    Please help me, for the sake of my laptop goin through the
    wall!

    ok - you are running yourself around in circles - why did you
    delete it to the stage only to add it
    again? once you converted it to a movie clip, you had what
    you wanted on the stage - but then you
    deleted it and dragged another instance of the same symbol
    back onto the stage - there's no reason
    to do that.

    Right - this is expected because yoyu are now inside the
    movie clip timeline - not the button timeline.
    > When i double clicked on it again, it brought up the
    right headings (top, down,
    > over, etc),
    Right - because by double clicking the button symbol you were
    then brought to "edit mode" for the
    button symbol.
    but there were about 5 layers that showed the different
    layers for
    > the original button.
    Huh? What "5 layers"? What do you mean "original" button -
    per your description there has only ever
    been 1 button you have been working with.
    > I think i have to add the button to each of the

    That's because you are applying a behavior for a button to a
    movie clip instead.
    I think you went wrong when you converted the button to a
    movie clip - i have no idea why you did
    that or why to think your button needs to be in a movie clip.

    I just think you don't understand how timelines, symbols or

    1. drag a button to the stage.
    2. select it and open the Behaviors panel (dont double click
    it to edit it).
    3. add your actions.
    4. test movie.

  • Problem with non loading movie clips in CS3

    Hi.
    I am making an animation ( Trailer for an upcoming handheld
    game i am working on ).
    And i have encountered a problem when i play back the
    animation with Flash player.
    There is two movie clips in the animation ( Normal vector
    drawing but with effects applied on it ( color adjustment , and
    blur ) ) and when i play the published swf back with flash player
    the two movie clips are in their normal Vector mode ( without the
    filters ) until the middle of the animation when they finally
    "load" , the filters finally have an effect on the two vector
    drawings.
    i use a very high end computer so that couldn't be it.
    And when i am going to upload the flash film there's going to
    be a loading screen ... i have no clue if it's going to fix this.
    But for now this is really odd and looks really awkward.
    If this problem persist i will not make the deadline. please
    help fast.
    Thanks everybody.
    -Jimmy Gonzo
    EDIT: oh and i also noticed that when the stuff isn't loaded
    yet... the animation goes too fast.

    It seems to me that you need to put a preloader in the first
    frame of your whole .fla. It seems that all your assets are not
    being loaded before the .swf playhead moves forward.
    A simple preloader could be something like:
    frame 1 label this as "preloader"
    frame 2 (insert the following commands)
    if (this._framesloaded >= this._totalframes) {
    this.gotoAndPlay("init");
    }else{
    this.gotoAndPlay("preloader");
    }

  • Problem with slow motion reversed clips

    Hi
    I've imported clips into iMovie 11 and can apply slow motion through Clip Adjustments. When I try to do both Slow Motion and Reverse all I get is a still clip. I tried both copying an existing Slow Motion clip and tried to reverse it and tried applying Reverse and Slow Motion at the same time to a normal clip without success. I've tried it with and without Stabilization. Any ideas?

    You are not alone! But I have not found a way to resolve the problem either! Could it be a fps problem?

  • Quicktime 10 problem with Export / Saving Edited Clips

    I can do all the editing, triming, adding of clips using Quicktime Player 10.3 (727.3) but CANNOT use export. I just get an export progress box as seen below. It never advances, only thing is the time estimate continually increases. This was for two clips that were 26 seconds as you can also see in the Movie Inspector Dialog Box. The 2 million+ hours seemed a little longer than I expected. Any suggestions?

    We have solved our problem.
    In fact, opening the Excel file disabling macros we had a sheet with the code.
    Analyzing ths code, we seen that the macro use English reference (R1C1) to the cells and not the French reference (L1C1).

  • HELP!!!! Problems with saving/exporting split clips in Premiere Elements 13

    I have Premiere Elements 13.  I have a 2 hr mp4 file I have set up into 8 split clips and want to save each split clip as it's own mp4 file so I can import it into Adobe Presenter as video for each particular slide.  I need very specific steps as how to accurately select each split clip and save it or export it as it's own mp4 file.  I was given instructions that instructed me to add these gray bars around the clip I wanted to save/export but I am unable to identify how to get those gray bars to activate around the clip.  When I save/export it is saving the entire 2 hr mp4 vs the individual clip.

    Please do not duplicate thread since it becomes confusing to the person asking the question as well as for those trying to respond.
    I have already replied to your latest request for further details on setting the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar.
    Please refer to your original thread and continue the discussion there.
    Elements 13 - How do you save clips
    Again, there are two requirements for selectively exporting a portion of the Timeline content
    a. setting the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar
    and
    b. having a check mark next to the Share Work Area Bar Only option in the export area.
    Details are in the original thread (with screenshot).

  • Problem with the imported video clips

    Hi! I'm very new to Premiere Pro, so please don't scold me :)
    I have a video file (.AVI) that I want to remove the audio from, and insert a new audio track.
    Here's my problem: When I import the AVI file into Premiere, and double-click it to preview it, it is really glitchy. The video is 1 minute long. During ~5 seconds in the very beginning, the whole video's "video" track is played, extremely speeded up (It plays through it all). The rest of the video consists of a freezed frame, and the audio is played in normal pace.
    I do not know which codec the AVI-file is encoded with, is this relevant?
    When I restarted Premiere the first time, it told me that it had to download codecs. I pressed OK and the codecs was downloaded and installed okay, but the problem remains.
    I copied the .AVI-file directly from my camera (Canon IXUS 700 I believe).
    When I play the original AVI file with VLC, everything runs perfectly with audio and video.
    I'm totally clueless, anyone have a clue how I can solve this?
    Any help at all appreciated, thanks in advance!

    >I do not know which codec the AVI-file is encoded with, is this relevant?
    Very relevant. Please provide
    these details to help us help you.

  • Problem with "Convert to Compiled Clip"

    I have a MovieClip symbol called BarGraph, set to Export,
    with Linkage Identifier BarGraph, and AS 2.0 Class specified as
    BarGraph. The BarGraph class is in BarGraph.as, stored in the same
    folder as the .fla file.
    When I right-click the symbol in the Library, and select
    convert to compiled clip, it places the compiled clip in the
    library with the name BarGraph SWF. When I try to run the movie,
    this is what shows up in the Output panel:
    "**Warning** The linkage identifier 'BarGraph' was already
    assigned to the symbol 'BarGraph', and cannot be assigned to the
    symbol 'BarGraph SWF', since linkage identifiers must be unique."
    I don't see how I can avoid this, since the compiled clip
    takes on the MovieClip symbol's linkage identifier, and you cannot
    change the linkage identifier for the compiled clip.
    Anybody know how to deal with this?

    I have the solution:
    Before jhs 10.1.3.1:
    #if (${JHS.current.item.property2}!='')
         ${JHS.current.item.property2}
    #end
    After jhs 10.1.3.2. Example on formTextInput
    #if (${JHS.current.item.property2}!='')
    #set ($propiedad = ${JHS.current.item.property2.replaceAll("&quot;","\"").replaceAll("&lt;","<").replaceAll("&gt;",">")})
    $propiedad
    #end

  • Problem with transitions after stabilizing clip

    Most often, but not always when I add a transition to a stabilized clip i get a jump, in frame size in the stabilised clip. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    I've seen some one ask this but not had any replies.
    Using latest which I think is 10.1.1

    Try turning the clip that "jumps" into a compound clip and apply the transition to that. (I'm just guessing here...)
    Also, the "latest" FCPX is 10.1.2 which seems to have fixed a lot of problems that were cropping up in 10.1.1.

  • Safari Problems with websites w/video clips

    Hello, this is my first MAC so please don't flame me.
    When going to sites that play video/audio clips I'm getting "plugin not found" but there's no link where to get the plugin (reminds me of the netscape days).
    Specific Error:
    has content of MIME type “audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed
    Please tell me where I can get Safari plugins. Thanks in advance. By the way, the audio plays fine.

    How strange then - that removing the real plugins will give a MIME type “audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin message in safari - yet as soon as they are installed.... the pages work again.
    Have a look for 'mime' in help on a mac - esp in the QT sections. An example...
    MIME Settings: When files are downloaded over the Internet, each file is assigned a MIME type to indicate what kind of file it is. Your browser keeps track of which plug-in should be used to display each kind of file.
    QuickTime can display a wide variety of file types. To make QuickTime handle more or fewer file types, you can edit the MIME type settings. If you edit the list, you can return to the default list by clicking Use Defaults.
    mime, of itself.... is absolutely not something incompatible with macs or safari.

  • Problems with artifacting when importing clip from After Effects...

    I have spent nearly 100 hours creating some effects in After effects within the last few weeks but have noticed some terrible verticle artifacting when I import them into FCP. I have tried exporting using Uncompressed quicktime codec as well as DVCPro/DV and the "none" option with the best quality settings(all using the same FPS) and it still creates these verticle lines. I have also tried not only using the settings for anamorphic(720x480) but exporting with naitive 16x9 (which I believe is 856x480)and still get these lines.
    I need help please!! I am stumped on this one. Even when viewing the files outside of FCP using the Quicktime player the footage looks perfect.
    I would appreciate any help!
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    My FCP settings are 24p advanced pulldown removed using DVCpro/DV 16x9.
    I have exported using the same settings with the after effects codec to a .mov and still get the problem.
    I am not viewing on an external monitor, only on the canvas. Could this just be a display issue?
    Thanks

  • Premier to Audition Problem With Multiple Channel Audio Clip

    Hi Guys, I am trying send clips into audition to remove noise. The clips have 8 channels of audio but in audition only one shows up, and it seems to randomly choose one. The audio channels are all on one file so I don't understand why audition doesn't recognize this. Premier for sure sees all of them. So when I remove the noise, it only works for one channel.
    How can I solve this? Merging all the channels into one clip and then sending it?

    Hummm, you got me. I take my multitrack, open the individual sound files, do my effects and save as .wav
    then I import the .wav back into Premiere
    depends, some times I do the mix down into one file, save and import
    I quit doing the render and replace or whatever it was called in CS6

  • Problems with Playback of HDV clips captured w ProRes422 codec

    I am trying to edit (FCP 6.0.5) with footage captured using the ProRes422 codec, shot with Canon XLA1 at 1080p30. The playback is terribly slow, stop & start. Sometimes the audio will play but not the pic. Sequence is set for ProRes422 and I have all the playback settings low to reduce processing load. I've tried changing settings, etc. nothing seems to work. I'm thinking I may have to recapture the footage in native hdv (have some of that and it seems to playback fine but the data rate is much lower) Any suggestions?

    You'll likely find that is the solution. USB delivers the video in bursts while FW provides the steady stream necessary for video playback.
    Make sure whatever drive you use has at least 15% free space and is formatted MAC OS EXTENDED.
    Let us know how you make out.

  • Problem with socket packaging

    There seems to be a problem with the plastic cpu clip i work as a tech in a computer store we build many systems with msi boards, the plastic clip on the 915G series most times has fallen off and pins in the cpu socket have been damaged.
    You should use a plastic insert under the cpu hood to prevent it from falling off.

    Quote
    Not sure either why DelUK thinks this is not a suitable topic for this forum.
    Probably because Del interpreted "You should use a plastic insert under the cpu hood to prevent it from falling off." to mean that "You" was MSI, and not the members of this forum. Oddly enough, I interpreted this the same way.  I don't see where Del indicated the topic was not suitable, though.
    As Del said, and as mentioned in the Forum Rules, MSI does not participate here. If you feel there is a manufacturing problem, contact MSI directly.
