Play a video clip in an existing Flash animation

I am a newbie to Flash and editing a Flash model. The model has the animation and sound that loops during the display of the page. I want to insert a button that will play an external Flash clip. I already have converted my video in .flv file and can view it using 'test movie'. (I won't include it because it comes a clip of 30 sec.) My question: how to trigger the display of this film using a button? How can I include a button on the clip so I can get back to the main .swf file and resume the display once the viewer has finished with the clip? I don't need to include a 'sound stop' to avoid conflicts with the sound running on the page? Is there a tutorial on how to do this?

For any other beginner reading this post of my problems had to do with the fact that my original film was written like AS 1, which did not support most of the instructions I found on the Internet and in books. Once I've re-edited the page in AS 2, components appeared I needed and I am able to make progress on that.

Beginners... after hours of searching I never found anything that makes clear the difference between AS 1 and 2 of the ACE (AS 3 is another story) especially regarding import video clips... that I could follow, at least! So, beware.

  • Impossible to play a video clip of the flash player

    I had 2 video clips recorded on my USB key, (I was asked if it had to be either windows or mac) I said windows but when I click on the video it says it can not play, but the solution Center has not detected a problem. Any suggestions?

    It is a wmv file. I downloaded what you recommended, but he won't play again although he repeats to me windows media player cannot play the file.

    Video takes a lot of memory in the computer to manage, sound does not need as much memory and that's why you will always hear.  Did you check to see that you still have a lot of space memory hard drive?  What are the specifications of your computer compared to what you need to run Media?  Before drag you it to another monitor, it works ok?  You may need to increase the speed of your computer, if not live without doing this operation.

  • Help, please... Flash is ignoring my Video Clip

    I create a slide show on Flash 8 and I want the last slide actually be a video clip. It's a slideshow where images just play themselves, fading and fading, one after the other. No interactivity of the Viewer.

    So I imported the .mpg file, I need and set it in the last image in the slideshow. But for some reason any Flash is ignorant. Preview SWF Gets the last frame before the video clip, ignore the video clip and starts in the first frame of the timeline.

    The funny thing is, I've done this before and I can't understand what I'm doing wrong this time.

    MY LINE OF CONDUCT:
    1 file > import... > import video
    2. in the import of video, under the section SELECT VIDEO dialog, I select 'your computer' and with the ' Browse... '. ", select the desired .mpg file.
    3. in the DEPLOYMENT section, I mark "Progressive download from a web server." I prefer not to embed the video in the SWF file, because the video is about 6 minutes long. What I said 'embed video in SWF and play in timeline' can cause audio sinc questions involving more than 2 minutes long video clips.
    4. in the ENCODING section, I select profile high quality Flash 8 and leave the settings as they are. My encoding settings:

    Click here to see the Configuration of the encoding

    5. I select 'None' for the SKINNING

    6 then I press "Finish" and wait for flash encode my video file. When it is complete the encoding process, in my library I find the FLVPlayback instance and on the stage, is what I assume to be the first frame of the video clip (in my case just a black frame) with a Flash Video icon in the Center.

    When I saw the SWF or post - the video is ignored. Flash it jumps just as if he were not there.

    I tried to import a much shorter video file and it worked. So I think maybe this has to do with the length. But first, I used the exact same 6 minute video clip in Flash before and it worked fine. Secondly, I don't remember hearing about the problems with video clips of 6 minutes, Flash 8 or so.

    I also tried to import the same .mpg to a new Flash document, it set the default image single layer 1. But same result - the video would not play.

    I use a PC, quite capable of managing this kind of work. The .mpg file made from a .avi file using Sony Vegas video editing software. He played in all of the media players and seems perfectly fine.

    Any ideas? I am really puzzled. The fact that it worked before and suddenly gives me problems is particularly frustrating. Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    Are you going to put a stop(); action on the frame with the video? If not then flash will just a loop around the beginning or skip your video file.

  • How can I list the instances of video clips if the clip that I am referencing is nested?

    Hello world

    It's me again and I am running into a problem. So I have this clip which is nested in several video clips. I mean Flash to perform an action when this clip from movie hits another video clip in the main timeline. It's just a collision for a game detection using the hitTestObject code. I was thinking of using MovieClip (root), but that won't work because it is so nested. Can someone help me? I would like to know if I need to explain more. Thank you!

  • Video clips play in reverse in AS 3.0

    Hey all. I change all my files in AS 3.0 because of a few new elements, I would like to use in flash CS4.
    Here: http://www.iaw-atlanta.com/IvyLeague1-13-09.html I have the bottom navigation menu with 4 buttons. When the buttons are speckled on they go up and when they are mottled the film plays in reverse so they go down. Essentially in the clip, I stopped him, and the next frame gotoAndStop when the button is wriggle on and then have a script of saying things reverse when wriggle on. I know how to do this in AS 2.0, but how can I translate the script to 3.0?

    DjPhantasy5,

    > Ok thanks, I'll see what he also has to say as well.

    In fact, NedWebs pretty much nailed. :) The approach you have taken
    is an interesting question, because it evolves all the way back to Flash Player 5.
    has not yet supported the MovieClip.onEnterFrame event. Without
    event, you need something like your "controller" - a separate symbol
    a loop of timeline - to run the code that depends on the loops of the frame.

    Available from Flash Player 6, this event allows you to
    consolidate your code a bit by putting everything in a unique setting and avoiding
    the additional movie clip symbol. This does not mean that your approach is wrong, by
    any stretching. In fact, it's good to know your options, because if you always
    need to publish for Flash Player 5, you had probably better to use the installation program
    you took.

    I'll demonstrate onEnterFrame in just a bit, in case you want to take a
    Watch this.

    > There is no mention of _root in AS3, but you can use a
    > MovieClip (this.parent) (which replaces what _parent)
    (> used to do) to find something outside the immediate
    > movieclip.

    The term "parent" in this context, is technically a property of the
    The class MovieClip, which means all the clips in AS3 have access to the
    feature 'parent', which points to the timeline that contains the video
    in question. Buttons have also a property 'parent '. In AS2,
    property has done exactly the same thing, only it was preceded by an underscore.

    In fact, the proposed codification of the NedWebs works the same in your existin file.
    Instead:

    Your existing code...
    If {(_root.animation._currentframe>1)}
    _root. Animation.prevFrame ();
    this.gotoAndPlay (2)
    }

    If (_root.animation._currentframe<=1)>
    this.gotoAndStop (1);
    }

    ... you can use this:

    Alternative code...
    If {(_parent.animation._currentframe>1)}
    _parent. Animation.prevFrame ();
    gotoAndPlay (2)
    }

    If (_parent.animation._currentframe<=1)>
    gotoAndStop (1);
    }

    ... because this range - in other words, from this point of view - this
    MovieClip._parent property points to the same scenario as _root done.
    That changes, of course, based on how deeply nested the current scope are.
    The word 'this' in the code above is optional, because Flash understand
    What place you are in. From the point of view of the present code, _parent is
    interpreted as referring to chronology parent of the current, just as scope
    gotoAndPlay() is interpreted to the timeline of the current scope.
    You might precede either of those of 'this' or not.

    Many people will say that _root is probably best to avoid, only because
    It's a slippery slope. It does not always refer to the main timeline you
    think he does, according to whether or not your file SWF is loaded in another
    SWF when running. Meanwhile, _parent * always * refers to the immediately
    relative chronology.

    Then, when you look at this way, this perfectly valid AS2:

    If {(_parent.animation._currentframe>1)}

    ... is not very different at all from its counterpart of the AS3:

    If (MovieClip (parent).animation.currentFrame > 1) {}

    It would be nicer if you need convert the parent as a reference
    Movie clip here, but if you haven't, AS3 do not realize that the scope in
    This is a clip.

    > You can string them along like...
    > MovieClip (this.parent.parent)

    Exactly.

    > Your _currentframe in becomes the controller
    > currentFrame. That's all. The rest of what I have
    > saw will fly as is.

    Not quite. AS3 does not support on() or onClipEvent(), functions
    you will not be able to reach your management code for the button. Instead,.
    you will have to put in a keyframe - you can also do with AS2. There
    a good idea, anyway, because it allows to put all your code in a
    place, making it easier to find.

    Here's a quick word on the direct attachment:

    http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/Flash/museum-pieces-on-and-onClipEvent

    To convert your existing AS3 FLA structure, you could, for example.
    follow these steps:

    animation.buttonMode = true;
    animation.addEventListener (MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, outHandler);
    animation.addEventListener (MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler);

    function outHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    controller.gotoAndPlay (2);
    };
    function overHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    controller.gotoAndPlay (4);
    };

    That supports the code on (rollout) and executed in your current
    Version. The first line (buttonMode) is necessary because I got rid of
    the symbol button and, instead, handlers directly associated with
    your movie clip. (Video clips manage events of type button, too, if you)
    do not need the button.) In AS3, event handling is very simple:
    you are referencing the object (here, animation), invoke its hereditary
    addEventListener() method, then passes two parameters: a) the event to
    Listening and (b) the function to execute when the event occurs.

    You can see that noted above. In AS2, there are several ways
    to handle events, including one () /onClipEvent (), so it is harder to know when
    to use what approach. For the buttons and video clips, the principle works the
    same I just showed, but the syntax is different.

    Let's take a look to reduce all this code using the
    onEnterFrame event. First of all, check out this AS2 version:

    animation.onRollOut = outHandler;
    animation.onRollOver = overHandler;

    function outHandler (): Void {}
    this.onEnterFrame = reversePlay;
    };
    function overHandler (): Void {}
    this.onEnterFrame = null;
    This.Play ();
    };
    function reversePlay (): Void {}
    this.prevFrame ();
    };

    This code would appear in box 1. You don't need the controller
    video clip. The movie clip contains more an orb button, because
    We use the animation itself as the 'button '. (You can still see what)
    a feature that any object is looking toward the top of its class. If you are dealing
    with a clip, see the MovieClip class. See the position properties
    to find out what features of the object, see methods to know
    what the object can do and see events to find out what the object can respond
    (to).

    In the code above, it is prepared quite easily. It is AS2,
    don't forget. We have two events, we are listening to: MovieClip.onRollOut and
    MovieClip.onRollOver. these events are set up for the animated film
    clip using the name of the instance and associated to custom match
    functions. The outHandler() function associates a different function to the
    MovieClip.onEnterFrame event of the animation clip. Very simply, it
    load of animation to make the custom function reversePlay() whenever
    He meets an onEnterFrame event. The overHandler() function that kills the
    Association of suppression outside and saying animation to play, via the
    MovieClip.play () method. Finally, the reversePlay() function simply calls
    MovieClip.prevFrame () on the movie clip.

    Here's the AS3 version:

    animation.buttonMode = true;
    animation.addEventListener (MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, outHandler);
    animation.addEventListener (MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler);

    function outHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    animation.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, reversePlay);
    };
    function overHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    animation.removeEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, reversePlay);
    Animation.Play ();
    };
    function reversePlay(evt:Event):void {}
    evt.target.prevFrame ();
    };

    It seems wordier, but if you look closely, you will see that there
    essentially the same thing. The main difference is the scope of operation in
    AS3. In AS2, there are many references to "it", because the event
    Manager operating in the same scope as the object to which the
    Association is formed. In AS3, the references are not to "that", but rather to
    the same movie clip by his * name *, because in AS3, the scope
    works in the same scenario in which the code is displayed (IE, in this)
    case, the main timeline).

    In the function reversePlay(), in order to emulate a 'this' kind of
    the installer, I refer to the parameter that is passed to the event handler all the
    functions in AS3. I happened to name "TTE" (for the event), but you can call
    it what you like. In the case of reversePlay(), the evt parameter refers to
    an instance of the event class, which has a property to target. The target
    property refers to the object that sent the event - is be
    animation, in this case. Then evt.target, in this context, refers to
    animation, that's what I call the MovieClip.prevFrame () method on.
