White flash when looping swf

Hi,
I have done a simple banner for a website in Flash which I would like to loop seamlessly but I'm getting a flash of white every time the movie replays!!
It works fine when I play it in Flash but won't work when exported. I've tried looking through all the publish settings but can't seem to find where I'm going wrong.
There are definitely no blank frames at the end of the movie.
Any help?

The wmode property is in the html page code. By default it is either set to opaque or not specified at all. You need to be sure that the wmode parameter is both specified in the html code and that it is set to be transparent.
I can't guarantee this will solve it, but it did for someone else the other day. It could also be a bowser shortcoming.

Using embedded SWF, get a white flash when its to play

Hi,
We develop e-Learning content using swf files embedded in
DCRs. We have started noticing a problem with the new Shockwave
player 10.1+ in that there is a noticable flicker or white flash
before the swf plays or is told to move on.
Has anyone had a similar problem? Does anyone know a
solution?
We are using Director 8.5 and Flash 8.0. files published for
Flash Player 5.0.
Simon

Well dont all fall over each other trying to post a possible
solution ;-).
Seems that we found the problem. We use shared script
libraries (cst & cct). It appears that there is a line in our
lingo code that sets the flash sprite cast member automatically
direct to stage. Shockwave player 10.1 + does not seem to like this
on standard speed machines and causes a flickering border around
the flash animations, which is really noticable. The line of code
reads as so:
sprite(channelNo).directToStage = true
We simply commented this out and the page functions fine.
Incedently, if I manually set the flash cast member as direct to
stage, we get the same issue, only more exagerated. This must be a
bug in the 10.1+ player as we don't get the issue at all on
machines running the 8.5 player.

Published Flash Bannerads but giving white screen when Linking SWF to website

my Flash Banner ads swf suppose load ASP program which retrieves affiliate ads from BANNERADSDBF.mdb database.
my Flash Bannerads Action script used in a document class has been passed as correct on this forum.
Below is an ASP statement passing
    (1) IMAGEURL
    (2) ADVERTISERURL
back to the Flash SWF File. although you may not know ASP just look at the Name Value string and see if it is
correct.
Response.Write "&IMAGEURL=" & HHIMAGEURL & "&NAVIGATEURL=" & HHADVERTISERURL
HHIMAGEURL and HHADVERTISERURL are just some variables containing information retrieved from the
BANNERADSDBF.MDB Access Database.
also can you see below if the object link to my website program file DOWNLOAD.ASP is correct
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="200" id="BANNERADS" align="middle">

    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
</object>

Good idea! But seriously, I am rather confused and frustrated by it too. I am not sure I am describing exactly what the problem is very well. I have spent SO much time flicking from page to page on this site in Firefox and sometimes it doesn't happen at all and the pages change smoothly. Then other times it has this complete page white flash which is quite disconcerting. I don't seem to notice this same problem occurring on other websites with Flash content. It is definitely caused by the Flash file on the page because on the events page it never happens. I have just tried to do the banner as an animated gif in Fireworks because it is just an image and fading text - but the result in Fireworks so far isnt very smooth.

Flash loop flashes when looping

When I create a flash movie and save it with looping enabled,
it seems to throw up a white frame when transisioning from the end
back to the beginning. Is there a way to stop it from doing
this?

Check that none of your layers have any frames after the
content actually
ends - it will play to the last frame of the movie before
looping, whether
that frame has any content or not.

Oracle forms display bright white flash when transitioning between forms.

We recently migrated an application from Oracle Application Server to WebLogic and we are noticing that in the WebLogic environment while transitioning between forms there is a quick bright white flash that has caused several complaints. We are not sure if this is related to a performance issue which may be preventing the form from painting quick enough or if there is a configuration problem somewhere. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
We are running WebLogic Server Version 10.3, Fusion Middleware 11gR1, and Oracle DB 11.2

Unfortunately we don't have any errors to work off of. The application works fine, it's just that their is a very short delay when transitioning from one form to another and during that transition the whole form turns bright white which has caused users to complain that it could cause an epileptic seizure. I assumed maybe there was some performance tuning/caching that could be done to make it so it loaded quicker. Our DBA team recieved a response from Oracle support stating that although the forms themselves are relatively unchanged, due to the underlying software changes in 11g we are to expect some differences compared to previous versions. We have since set background in formsweb.cfg to use a light grey image which seems to be more acceptable for our users.

IPhone 5 white flashing when on camera in the dark?

iPhone 5 when I go on camera in the dark I notice a white flashing dot above the option button. When I slide it on to video or face time camera it goes? Help!!!

The flash on a smartphone camera is tiny. It only lights up a very small area right in front of the camera. It won't light up the whole scene.
Have you seen the size of the flash on a professional camera? Even they can't light a whole scene in the dark.
Fact is, a smartphone camera is not capable of taking good photos in the dark, even with the flash.
You'll need to buy and learn how to use a professional, dedicated SLR camera to be able to take good photos in the dark. It is not easy.

White flash when previewing movies on full screen

Sometimes, when previewing my current editable movie project on the full screen I see a brief white flash at the end. Any idea why this is, please, and can it be avoided? No problem, I guess, if it does not appear in the final iDVD version or on the burnt DVDs. Thanks, Keith.

Hello, Keith,
Welcome to the discussions.
Some users reported a brief white flash in association with a transition. Is yours related to a transition? The 'cure' was to move the playhead frame by frame until you see the white flash, then 'split video at playhead' to isolate the flash. Usually it is only a frame or two in duration, and you can delete it.
If it is with a transition, you will have to delete the transition, find the white flash frame, delete it and redo the transition.
Post back if this is not helpful.

White flash when wake from sleep

Just upgraded my 2007 iMac to ML. Notice that when I wake from sleep there's a white flash, or perhaps a bit longer, on screen before the desktop appears. It's similar to the white screen when booting, just before the worm gear appears.
Anyone else notice it? Normal behavior?

Yes, on a mid-2011 MacBook Air. Tried resetting SMC, no luck. I've installed all the prior firmware updates. It only happens when running on battery power. I'm going to experiment with disabling Power Nap when running on battery to see if that makes a difference.

Ie white flash blink solution

hi,
just wanted to share that i've managed to get the menu to
work well in firefox, safari and chrome but in ie6 and sometimes in
7 it was blinking a white flash when changing between the menu
items.
to solve it all i had to do is remove this line from my code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
even when it was commented it was still doing it. i also
tried it with a combination adding the UTF8 attribute into the tag
but only removing it helped.
cheers,
aaron.

I dont see anything flashing in IE7, FF, i only see the arrow
disapearing and showing on mouseover in IE6. or is this what u
mean?
Also im seeing your using /* SpryMenuBar.js - Revision: Spry
Preview Release 1.4 */ <-- 1.4
I suggest downloading version 1,6 and check if the problem is
still there.

White screen flash when I use Preview to look at pics!

GDay all
About a week ago my G5 Duel started flashing a white screen (like a camera flash) when I load any jpg tiff or pdf using Preview. I minimise the photo file, then load it back to full size and I get a white flash.
Its like someone is taking a screen dump of my screen every time I use the preview program... If I was on a PC I would think I was being hacked...
Any ideas?

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
If the problem is present in the test account also, then it is systemwide. In this case try repairing this with the 10.5.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
If the problem does not appear in the test account try starting in "Safe Mode" (It will take a bit more time to startup because it runs a directory check first).
If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If there are still problems, go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving /Users/Home)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
Let us know.

Zen 4GB... Flashing white screen when powered o

I was wondering if anyone has encountered this problem.
My new Zen... since the day I received it, flashes a white screen when it is just sitting there on my desk. It turns on then off real quick randomly... I notice it because I keep it at my computer desk... it happens at random, I actually see it happen maybe to 4 times a day. It does it on 4 different firmwares including the newest firmware. I was hoping the next one may fix it but it does seem more logical that this is a hardware issue. It works perfectly whiled turned on... but it seems possessed by turning on by itself and I am thinking of returning it before it turns into a bigger problem. I'm assuming bad wiring... maybe just with mine...
Don't let this discourage you though... it is a great mp3 player.

Yes, i have that flashing screen, too. It?s so very annoying ...
With the stock firmware, the .03, I have only problem, the hold-mode.
If I turn hold-mode on, the display shuts down, quite normal.
If I turn hold-mode off, the display shows only a white screen, nothing else,
music keeps running and I can push keys, but i can't see anything ...

That means that it can't find an OS to boot. You might try booting off the CD that came with the system and running Disk Utility on the Hard Drive.

Flv "white flash" in between videos playing when button pressed.

Would really appreciate any help,

Hello all,
Yes to follow up Ben, I'm experiencing the exact same problems as him. I changed browser to Firefox 3.0.11 a couple of months ago and hence downloaded the Flash plugin for Firefox. I noticed the issue straight away in Youtube, but not on other sites. As I attributed the problem to Firefox, I then downloaded Opera 9.64 - but experienced the same problem. This led me to believe the issue was the Flash plugin, as both browsers are served by the same Adobe plugin for 'alternative browsers' to IE.
I then tried IE6 again in youtube and it didn't have the problem on standard view, however the problem was (and still is) occurring in full screen view. I'm nearly 100% sure this problem didn't occur before I downloaded the Flash plugin for Firefox / Opera. Regardless of whether that is the issue, the problem was definitely not happening on my system in IE6 earlier this year.
As Ben said, my computer is fairly old but well managed and up to date. OS is Windows 2000 SP4, system is AMD Athlon 900 (slot A), 512 Mb RAM, 16Mb Voodoo 3 graphics, m/board MSI MS-6191.
I've also tried removing the Flash plugin for Firefox/Opera and for IE6 and reinstalling it but had no joy there either. I would try an updated version of IE too but IE6 is the last version compatible with Win 2k.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Dreamweaver CS5 wont loop .swf file???

Hi there,
I am having a problem where i am trying to get a swf file to loop. I read on another thread that there is a bug in dreamweaver and although it automatically selects the loop button in the property inspector it does not add the code. But when i correct the code it still doesn't work! here is the code i am using:

I have also read that it could be because the code for the .fla file has a <stop/> value at the end instead of the code to make it loop. I made the swf file from an mp4 in flash so ive never had the original .fla file. I have tried using a swf decompiler to get the fla file but it doesnt seem to have worked but this is a side issue...
I really just want to figure out how to get dreamweaver to loop my swf file.
Can someone please help me, ive spent all day trying to solve this!
thanks,
Matt

Hi

.fla file. I have tried using a swf decompiler to get the fla file but

First welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately without being able to edit the stop() function out of the fla file, your swf will not loop.
You could use the html5 video element for your mp4 and if you have the original video file convert it to other formats for use in the html5 video, and then use the swf file as the fall back, this would allow your video to loop in those browsers that support this.
There are also 3rd party players available that will allow the swf to loop without editing but these will only work on windows.

My MacBook Pro just turned itself off while installing Windows 7. It has now got a black screen with a white flashing bar in the top left corner...what can I do?

I was just installing windows 7 onto my MacBook Pro. I selected to have 200GB for Windows and the rest leave for Mac.
I clicked install and the bar filled up as it should do. However, once the install had completed, my MacBook turned itself off. I assumed this was normal. Now, my MacBook has a black screen with a white flashing underscore in the top left corner.
What is wrong and what should I do?

Hold down the Option key when starting up then on the sceen that comes up select Mac OS X to boot from.
The Win 7 install didn't go well and is hung in some way. You should use boot camp assistant to remove the win partition and start over.
Make sure you are using a Retail version of Win 7. A Branded OEM version, like ones from Dell and HP, will NOT work to install Windows 7 on your Mac.
