Hiding SWF Sound Control & Spanning Loop Across Site Pages

Hi All,
New here and first post with two questions:
Is it possible to hide the play/stop SWF sound control on a
page? I have one on a page and the client doesn't want it visible
on the page. They want the music loop to always play. I have looked
and can't find a way to set its property to
"invisible" or anything like that.
Second question, related somewhat to the first. They want the
loop to play across all pages on a site and not be interrupted or
restarted on page changes (which would happen if I embedded on
every page). Is that possible? Just a thought...could I put it in a
CSS sheet that applies to the entire site? Doubt it...but thought
it would be a desireable goal ;)

I seem to have the same problem. The sound would play in some programs, would not in others, and in all of them when I stop playing, it would repeat the last half second endlessly. Could anybody shed some light on this problem?
in dmesg:
AC'97 1 does not respond - RESET

Load an SWF and control

Hi,
I want to know if you can load an SWF into another SWF and
control it for example:
load SWF b into SWF a and control SWF b from SWF a
is this possible because I want to be able to trigger a
particular mc or frame in SWF b but do it from SWF a?
Cheers
Scott

yes and yes: wait until loading is complete and then
reference the target movieclip or _level of your loadMovie(),
loadMovieNum() or loadClip() method.

Swf playback controls not working correctly

Hello all -
When I publish the Captivate project that contains a swf file
and an audio file everything plays well until I use the controls.
Stop/pause works fine,but when I use rewind or ff etc the swf file
will not rewind nor start over.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Uninstalling Glimmerblocker fixed the problem of Safari being able to access all web sites. One of the other many procedures I did must have solved the issue of the apps not launching.

Load internal SWF and control other SWF

I have 96 questions with radio button responses that control
movie clips. They are all in the same swf but I want to separate
the questions and put them in a draggable, scalable movie clip so
that the user could move the question box as convenient. Most of
the ActionScript is associated with the MCs, responding to a radio
button listener object. The two SWFs must advance from frame to
frame synchronously.
Here is what I did:
1. Split the original FLA into 2 pieces, a MC FLA and a
Question FLA
2. Renamed rbListener as _global variable in MC FLA
3. Used this code in the MC FLA:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("loadQuestions_mc",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
loadQuestions_mc._height = 400;
loadQuestions_mc._width = 600;
loadQuestions_mc.onPress = function():Void {
this.startDrag();
loadQuestions_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
this.stopDrag();
loadQuestions_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("containQuestions_mc",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
loadMovie("mccolor4_SplitBottom.swf", containQuestions_mc);
4. Used this code in the first frame of Questions FLA:
function specifyListeningTargets () {
i = cellNumber;
eval("QA" + i).addEventListener("click", rbListener);
eval("QB" + i).addEventListener("click", rbListener);
eval("QC" + i).addEventListener("click", rbListener);
// Button pops up at x:400, y:600, What is 10? Depth?;
clicking button advances to next frame.
function popupNav () {
i = cellNumber
if (((eval("QA" + i).selection.data) > 0),
((eval("QB" + i).selection.data) > 0),
((eval("QC" + i).selection.data) > 0)) {
this.createClassObject(mx.controls.Button, "popupNext_btn",
10, {label:"Go To Next Questions"});
popupNext_btn._width = 20;
popupNext_btn.move(250, 375);
function popupClicked() {
this.nextFrame();
_parent.nextFrame();
popupNext_btn.addEventListener("click", popupClicked);
5. Used this code in each frame of the Questions Fla:
stop();
cellNumber = 1;
popupNext_btn._visible = false;
popupNav ();
specifyListeningTargets();

Batch process video to swf with controls??

Hi,
I have hundreds of QT videos that I need converted to .swf
video WITH control bar and a watermark logo.
I can batch process them to .flv using the Media Encoder, but
I need them to be .swf in order to use them in Director 2004MX.
Plus, I don't see where I can add a watermark using Media Encoder.
I have CS3 and CS4 Master Collections so I assume there's got
to be SOME way to do this batch processing.
I did a few sample tests in Flash, bringing in the .flv file,
attaching one of the prebuilt skins, adding a layer for the logo
watermark, then exporting to swf. It works beautifully in my
Director project. But to do this process 500 times would take
forever.
Any advice on how to batch to .swf video with control bar and
watermark would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
-Karen

Thank you Heathrowe I appreciate it.
I guess as far as using the hotspot slicer in Fireworks, if I
export to an SWF it doesnt make that a clickable section in the SWF
file. Oh well. Would be a nice feature in the next version of
Fireworks.

Simple swf movie control

I am still getting used to scripting from within Flex. I have
a very simple flash movie that indicates a value from 0 to 100% -
one frame for each percent. I want to embed that movie into a Flex
application and control the swf's position in the timeline from
within the Flex application.
I know that I cannot just use:
"SWF.gotoAndStop(currentFrame)" or
"MovieClip(SWF.content).gotoAndStop(currentFrame)" ...
but I would like to find a simple solution - if one exists. I
do not want to create 101 separate swf files and change the source
every time I need to change the frame.

You can communicate with a loaded SWF through the
SWFLoader.content property. This gives you access to any public
members of the swf.
If you implement a public method, like setPos(iPercent:int),
you should be able to call that method thropugh the content
property.
Note that there are timing issues wotking with content in a
loaded SWF. SWFLoader has to be complete, and you need to listen
for the Application.complete event before interacting with the swf.
If you have difficulty with this, I have an example on
www.cflex.net. Search for swfloader.

How do you build SWF play controls?

Hi sorry for the post I know this is probably a well covered topic, but I've been googling all day and everything I find is linked to using buttons with an imported flv; which is not what I want.
I actually am working on 2 different senerios. the first I have a new video that is all keyframe and AS based but I need a way to control it. I've placed a graphic on the timeline then built an invisible button over it the graphic is just a basic play button with a gradient. can some one help me with the code to get the invisible button to play/pause the video from the 2nd key frame? Also I'll need to add a stop button.
I used the code
play_bttn.onRelease = function(){
_root.play();
on earlier videos I've made but I can't figure out/remember how I got it to work, I'm just getting statement must appear within on handlers errors with this new video.
The second issue I'm having is different. I have a SWF that is already built and I need to control it, so I'm importing the video to the stage with AS code
stage.loadMovie("medialocation/movie.swf");
which is working fine, now I need to create buttons to control it. Shouldn't the code be the same for both files? They are similar, where everything is being controlled after you export the swf's
I have no flv's, avi's or mov's involved just 100% flash
Thank you

The error message you're getting is indicating (to me) that you are trying to place that code on the button. The code you show for the button goes in the timeline, not on the button. As for the other bit, yes, as long as your swf file is a timeline based animation, then similar code as what you use for the video should be appropriate.

Loading external swfs and controlling their actionscript

I'm in need of some tutorials/examples for loading external
swfs placed in empty movie clips using loadmovie into the main
movie.
I have actionscript and alot of interactive features within
these loaded swf files and I'm having a heck of a time figuring out
how to code and path the AS from them to work in the main timeline.
I'm also open to using loadMovieNum and working with levels
if it might be easier, however I'd like to keep this as simple as
possible.
PLEASE ANY HELP!!!????

I am by no means an expert however it is my understanding
that if you have a loaded swf within your main application and you
wish to control features on the main timeline you need to use the
_root function.
Without knowing exactly what type of controlling you need
it's hard to explain in great detail.

Swf video controls

I have a swf video file that I put on a page on my website. I
was wondering how I would assign play and stop buttons to it,
instead of having the movie autoplay and loop.
I am a newbie, so sorry if this is obvious.

Well, SWF video is timeline based video so using basic
play(); stop(); action
targeting the main timeline will do just fine. Tho, if you
are loading it in leve
or movie clip holder than adjust the action accordingly.
If MC Holder:
mcHolder.stop(); mcHolder.play();
if in level3 (example):
_level3.stop(); _level3.play();

How a SWF Child can control a Parent's function/variable ?

For instance, in the below code a parent can control a SWF
child’s function “alert ()”.
But how a SWF child can control parent’s function
“ReceivingChildMsg()” ?

Hi clbeech
I simplified the code to simply get the swf child controlling
its parent variable tp ( textfield ) and its content.
I used your suggestion (parent.ReceivingChildMsg( ) and
root.ReceivingChildMsg( )) but I get an error message:
quote:
“1061: Call to a possibly undefined method
ReceivingChildMsg through a reference with static type
flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer.”
Here is the code:
package
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
public class Child extends MovieClip
public function Child():void
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickHandler);
public function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
//root.ReceivingChildMsg( "Received Child Message");
parent.ReceivingChildMsg( "Received Child Message");
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
package
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.*;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
public class Parent extends MovieClip
private var loader:Loader;
public function Parent():void
loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onLoadComplete);
loader.load(new URLRequest('Child.swf'));
private function onLoadComplete(e:Event):void
var loaderInfo:LoaderInfo = e.target as LoaderInfo;
addChild(e.target.content);
var swf:Object = loaderInfo.content;
swf.x = 75;
swf.y = 50;
public function ReceivingChildMsg(msg:String):void
// tp textfield object is created directly in flash
tp.text = msg;

HELP PLEASE: .swf Controls take over in Powerpoint Slideshow

Hi,
I have a .swf embedded within an Powerpoint slideshow. When I
use the controls I've set within the .swf file (pause, play, replay
animation) I no longer can use the Powerpoint slideshow mode
controls (forward or backward to next slide). If I don't touch the
controls within the .swf, letting the .swf animation play through,
the Powerpoint slideshow controls work fine.
Can anyone offer any workarounds that may enable me to use
the .swf file controls while in Powerpoint slideshow mode, yet not
loose the ability to advance to the next slide (using the arrow
keys) in Powerpoint?
Thanks!!

Hi Michael,
I'm not an expert however if I understand the links correctly, it's saying that you are missing the .webm extension for apache which is server side. I'm not a dev geek so I really can't dive into it with any type of authority.
I viewed it with IE and I got "invalid source". Which means the files maybe corrupted, something is just slightly off in your coding, or you need to add that .webm extension (which I have no idea how to do). It seems highly unlikey that your server is not set up for this though >
For some reason this doesn't seem right to me. If the files are .mp4, ogg and vp8 then what is the reference to shockwave?
<embed src="Laser.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="650" height="400" />
Try this link: http://www.htmlgoodies.com/html5/client/how-to-embed-video-using-html5.html#fbid=96yfRXf_d N9
Give that technique a shot and see how it goes.
Hopefully somebody with more technical expertise will put in their "two cents".
Good luck.

Can't load swf into editable region

Am using DW CS4 in W7 64.
Have designed an html site with one page that has a swf to control dynamic content with php.
All the pages are created based on one template and al is fine until I try to place the flash file in the editable area of the html page. It seems that no swf files can me placed in this or any other editable area of the page.
When the swf is put in the follwoing error comes up "While executing object Tag in Flash htm, a JavaScript error occurred"
Any one else had this issue? More to the point anyone found a work around?

Cevema wrote:
To test the theory, as I had previously loaded CS4 onto my old XP pro machine, following a fresh install of XP Pro, and as Dreamweaver had never been started on the is machine before, I then created a brand new page from the template and tried to load in a swf file, but got the same error message. For a fresh install this couldn't be a corrupt file. A friend also tried this on his machine and had the same result.
I don't normally use either templates or SWFs, but I have just done a quick test in Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows Vista 32-bit. Dreamweaver inserted the SWF into an editable region without demur. It's definitely not a Dreamweaver bug.
Did your friend use the same template?
Since a JavaScript error is being generated, I suspect you have invalid code somewhere in your template, or perhaps you have given more than one element the same ID. Validate your page with the W3C validator (http://validator.w3.org/), and eliminate any errors it finds.

Missing controls (skin) on playback

When trying to play back a Flash video from my root
directory, the skin controls are missing. I do have the flv, swf,
skin and .js files all in one subdirectory (example:
/av/Hill_Hearn_Bonnie.swf, and the html in the root directory. The
original html was transferred from my computer to the server. I
have tried going all the way back to the flv file and making
another swf without any luck. In fact then the movie doesn't play.
In the current file the movie does play perfectly, but no controls.
I'd sure appreciate any insights on the topic. Here's the url to my
html file:
http://www.authorlink.com/interview_templ_video.html
Additional question: Does the .js have to reside int he same
directory, and can the skin and .js files be common to several
files in the same directory. Sorry, I'm a newbie.

Here's how I solved my problem. I hope this will help other
beginners and hopefully someone will give me feedback if this is a
good and/or correct way to go about this. I certainly don't want to
give out bad info...
File/New/flash document
Import file to stage
Opens window: select video
I selected a file on my computer
progressive streaming
clearoverplayseekmute.swf
Finish
Control
Enable simple buttons
Enable simple frame actions (Though I'm not quite sure what
that does)
Publish settings
Publish
I uploaded the .swf, the .html and the .flv
Now it has settings for start/stop and mute. I still haven't
gotten it to go back to the beginning when it finishes and to get
it to go to full screen but I'm very encouraged.
Best,
Jay in Paris

I think you'll need to use localConnection.
