Replay Button troubles...

Hello Everyone!
I am in need of some assistance with attaching the
actionscript to replay my movie (and the music to go along with
it).
This is what I have done:
1. My button has been created. I just don't know where to put
the actionscript.
2. I'm using Flash CS3.
Any response will be fine. Basically I just need to know
where to put the actionscript for this replay button.
Thank you so much!!! :)

Hi,
I am still having trouble attaching the code.
This is what I am doing:
1. Like I said before, the button has been created.
2. now from what i've been reading, you can only attach the
script to the main timeline of the movie, however I only want to
attach the code to the button and I cannot.
3. Something I did try was copying a replay button from
another movie into the movie i'm working on now. When I go to test
the movie, I get this error:
WARNING: Actions on button or MovieClip instances are not
supported in ActionScript 3.0. All scripts on object instances will
be ignored.
I really want to get this accomplished today, any help is
appreciated. Thank you all so much.
This is the code that is attached to the copied replay button
from the previous movie:

Creating a Replay Button for a Flash Video

I want to replay a flash video by clicking on a "replay" button. I know how to creat the buttons. I can't figure out how to create the action script. Thanks in advance for any help.
I know how to create the Action Script to replay flash, but when I have a flash video that I want to replay that's when I run into trouble.

Hi,
This snippet should hint a solution to you (NetStream class):
netStream.seek = 0;
netStream.resume();
Anyway, you would need to know when the movie has finished playing.
On a Flash Media server, there should be an event just for that.
If you are not running on such a kind of server, make yourself a cuepoint to listen to, at the very last frame of the movie, so your app knows when its time to offer the replay functionality. You can insert cuepoints in a movie when you are in the Flash Video Encoder options.

Replay button problems

Hi, I am having trouble creating a replay button in AS3.
I have two scenes named BEGINNING and END. At the end of the
second scene, END, I inserted a button and when clicked, I want it
to go to frame 3 of scene one, BEGINNING.
I have tried several of the solutions from this board and
because I am a newb, they don't work. I have a preloader at the
beginning of the first scene.
I have a start button on frame two of the first scene, which
starts the animation.
The code on the first frame of scene one is:
stop();
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);
function loading(e:Event):void{
var total:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal;
var loaded:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded;
bar_mc.scaleX = loaded/total;
loader_txt.text = Math.floor((loaded/total)*100)+ "%";
if (total == loaded){
play();
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);
It loads properly and stops on frame two where the start
button is. The code on the second frame is:
stop();
start_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,startmovie);
function startmovie(event:MouseEvent) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
The movie plays and stops on the last frame of scene two
where I inserted a stop. But I don't know the code to get it to go
to frame 3 of scene one.
Thanks in advance.

For the replay button code, did you try gotoAndPlay(3,
"BEGINNING");
Hi, NebWebs, thanks for the help.
It works now, I had the 3 and the beginning switched around.

Replay button

hello,
i've got a pretty simple CS3 animation. Just about at the end
of the timeline a replay button appears. However, so far I can't
get it to work.
In the replay button's timeline, I have defined keyframes for
up, over and down states. (the button is changing images properly
when I hover the mouse over it, and press down.) For the hit state,
I've created a keyframe. I've also tried to insert some Action
Script there. The window for the Action Script says "Current
selection cannot have actions applied to it." So, my first question
is: Does CS3 allow for Action Script to appear in the timeline of a
button? I keep reading how people are applying AS3 in button
timelines, but I can't put my AS3 in the "hit" frame's keyframe.
So, i've tried to get the button to work using the main
timeline. I've given the button an instance name: btnReplay. In the
first frame of the timeline, I've got AS that says:
function replayClick(event:MouseEvent):void
trace('inside onClick');
gotoAndPlay(1); // plays the current timeline from 1
} // end of onClick
btnReplay.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, replayClick);
Unfortunately, i get a compiler error with the first line.
(I've changed my AS version to 1-2, it still gives me the error.
So, I'm currently running AS3.)
The compiler error says '{' expected. I've compared this
first line (i.e., "function...") with other examples that I've
found, and I don't see what the source of the compiler error is.
does anyone have any advice? Thanks.

Ned,
thanks for looking at my FLA file. I sent it to your email.
However, here's some comments:
1. when I run it, I get an error on frame 103, line 1. It
says '{' expected with this statement:
function replayClick(event:MouseEvent):void
2. frame 109 has some AS3 that doesn't work. Here's the code:
var request="
http://www.Adobe.com"
try {
flash.net.navigateToURL(request, "_self");
catch (e:Error) {
// handle error here
// trace('e:Error: ' + e:Error);
I'm trying to give the user about 5 seconds to hit the
"replay" button. If the person doesn't do this, then I want the
flash to force the calling page to load a new page. (So that the
calling page functions as a splash page.)
3. the replay button doesn't work.
Thanks again for looking at my FLA. I appreciate it.

Remove Video Controls and add Replay button on page

Hello,
I am trying to create a page in Adobe Edge that loads a video without any controls (play, slider bar, volume, full screen) and then displays a replay button after the video finishes which will start it from the beginning.
Currently I am able to load the video file and have it play to the end and stop, but I can't seem to get a replay button working. I also can't find a way to disable controls on the video so they do not show.
Here is the code I am using to load the video:
// insert code to be run when the composition is fully loaded here
$("#Stage").css("margin","auto")
sym.stop();
// original video play code starts here
// create a text object called vid;
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='none'>" +
   "<source src='video.mp4' type='video/mp4' />" +
   "<source src='video.webm' type='video/webm' />" +
   "<source src='video.ogv' type='video/ogg' />" +
   "This browser is not compatible with HTML 5" +
"</video>"
sym.$("replay_btn").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"-265", "left":"7", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
// stage symbol lookup, and append the above vid object to it;
// in other words, get the div called 'vcontainer' and attach the video control to it;
sym.$("vContainer").append(vid);
// additional options for the video object
vid.attr('autoplay', 'autoplay');
vid.attr('preload','auto');
vid.attr('controls', 'none');
// End original code
// this is the insert for the action after the video ends
$(vid).bind("ended", function () {
sym.$("vContainer").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "left":"0", "opacity":"0"}, 0);
sym.$("replay_btn").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"394", "left":"19", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
$("#Stage").on('click','#replay_btn',function(){
vid.pause();
vid.currentTime = '0';
vid.play();
sym.$("vContainer").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"133", "left":"0", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
vid.removeAttribute("controls");
As you can see, I tried a few ways of disabling the controls, and I also tried adding the replay function to the button itself, but neither of those worked. Any advice or information on controlling the video control display and replay function in Adobe Edge would be very helpful.
Thanks!

In case anyone is interested in the replay button, I was able to find code that worked:
var myVideo = document.getElementById("activeVideo");
myVideo.currentTime = 0;
myVideo.play();
This is executed when the replay button is clicked. Just be sure to set the video in question's ID to "activeVideo".
I am still unable to turn off the controls on the video. It seems like some of the code I have tried should work, but I haven't had success yet.
I've tried all of the following:
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='none'>"
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='0'>"
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls=''>"
vid.attr('controls', 'none');
vid.attr('controls', '0');
vid.attr('controls', '');
But nothing has worked so far. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

How do you make a replay button?

I made a flash movie and all i need to do is make a replay button, but i have no idea how. i am using cs5. my movies goes through multiple scenes so at the last scene i want them to click on the reply button to go to the 1st scene again. however, i have no idea where my actions layer and labels layer go or what action to put into my button.
i looked around, but every video i find, they seem to only be working in one scene and within one layer too.
--edit--
this works just fine:

assuming no variables/code need to be reset, you can use:
yourreplaybutton.onRelease=function(){
_root.gotoAndPlay(1);

It appears from many other posts that the " Keep This iPod in the Source List" function isn't included in iTunes 7 unfortunately. You can leave your feedback on it's absence at this link: Apple Product Feedback
You can check out a workaround at this link which may help out for now: Create ready-to-sync playlists for Shuffles in iTunes 7

Flash help for replay button

I have a simple movie that consists of 1 scene with some
layers. Each layer
contains a movie clip and there's an actions layer with a
stop action. All
the clips play at once. The clip that contains the ending
sequence contains
a replay button. The actionscript is as follows:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);
With simple buttons enabled within flash, it does what is
expected, but when
I save as a .swf, it goes back to the first frame of the
movie clip it's
contained in, not the movie itself. How do I add a replay
button to a movie
set up the way I have it?
Thanks
-mark

Thanks for that. I got it to work by simply having the button
reload the
movie. I got to thinking that since all the clips play
through and then stop
at their respective endings. Going back to the first frame of
the root may
not work as the root only has 1 frame and the clips have
already played
through. Figured I should reload the movie.
But I'll try your solution and see if it also works.

Back button & Replay button for Flash movie on website

Three questions all related:
1. I need to add a "Back" and a "Replay" button to a Flash movie that plays full screen when the link is clicked on a website. I have created the two buttons and placed them on the stage. I've given them the names back_btn and play_btn. I've tried several scripts from postings on the Forum for the replay button but all of them come up with errors such as, "1119: Access of possibly undefined property onRelease through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton" when I use this script:
stop();
play_btn.onRelease = function()
play();
I also tried this script:
stop();
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);
function playMovie(event)
play();
It didn't report any errors, but it didn't work.
2. I saw a posting that said one needs to name the movie clip and reference it in the script. Would this be the file name of the movie after it is exported? I am unclear on this.
3. For the "Back" button, would I include the whole url to get the viewers back to the previous page or is there a shortcut way to get them back there?
If you can help, please provide detailed script as I do not know Action script.
Thank you,
Marilyn

Hi, Ned:
I have a presentation completed that is already up on a website and now I need the "Back" button and "Replay" button, so whether I'm ready or not, I have to find a solution. I know I'm missing some important step. I have Lynda.com and I can usually figure out what's wrong with the lessons on there, but this one has me stumped.
I did try the code change you sent and I was unable to get the movie to replay. I'm attaching two screen shots so you'll see that I did have the button instance named properly and the Action Script correctly written. You can "Ctrl" "Scroll" to enlarge the images on your screen.

Flash video replay button

Hi all..
I'm working on a flash video.. I have no problem converting/linking the video, etc - however, need to have a replay button as well as another button (to go to another page and such) after the video is done playing... Can anyone help me out or diret me to a tutorial about this? I'm assuming that I need to check for when the video is done playing and than make the buttons visible?
Thanks a bunch ahead of time!

here's an example, it assumes you have two buttons on stage or instantiated(restartButton and goButton), and your vid file/playback linked up etc
restartButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, restartVideo);
goButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goSomewhere);
goButton.visible = false; // hiding it till you need it
myVideoPlayBack.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, setGoButtonVisible);
function restartVideo(event:MouseEvent):void
     myVideoPlayBack.stop();
     myVideoPlayBack.seek(0);
     myVideoPlayBack.play();
function setGoButtonVisible(event:Event):void
     goButton.visible = true;
function goSomewhere(event:MouseEvent):void
     //whatever this should do, be it load a page, go to a frame etc

AS3 Replay Button

OK, so here I am having finished my flash project and I have
no reply button. I tried adding the code to the button, but had to
slap myself very hard seeing as how I created a AS3 document! Now I
have no idea how to make a replay button with AS3. I read some
gibberish somewhere online, but don't understand it. There was a
mile of code and something called a listener....wha?
There has to be a simple easy way to add a replay button like
on action script 2....
If not, can someone made a step by step tutorial on how to
add a replay button? Please T.T
Thanks
D

I get this error:
quote:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label beginning not found
in scene DEATH.
"DEATH" being the scene name.

Replay button in Cp7

How can I add a replay button to a slide in Captivate 7.0? I saw online a way to do that using advanced actions, but I didn't understand. Thank you!

Replay button problem

Hello,
I have a problem with my Replay button. I've created the same advanced action that I've used earlier withount issues. Instead of replaying the slide it just freezes.
Anyone seen this before or have an idea of what the reason could be?
I use Captivate 5 on XP. I'll attach a pic of the advanced action.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Patrik

Hi Anjaneai,
Thanks for the prompt reply.
The button is set to infinite attempts, I have not changed it anyway.
I tried to insert a blank slide with just the replay button and a caption, still the same problem.
On an average slide there is basically four buttons, next, back, home and replay. With this there are captions and basic shapes, nothing fancy.
This has worked just fine before, but with this project it doesn't. Confusing to say the least.
Kind regards,
Patrik
