• loading an external swf that loads an object from url

  I am trying to load an external swf which in turn automatically load an object. I want the external swf will only be loaded once the object is loaded in it. for now, it loads the external SWF first, then the external swf file loads the object specified in a URL...

  exactly.  you will need a preloader that checks if your external swf finished loading its dependent objects.

• Problem with the playback of the external SWF sound

  Hello

  I need to load the external SWF file, which contains the simple + audio image sequence. I used the MovieClipLoader class for this and also a preloader, where I check if I can run the SWF safely, without having to pause later and continue with loading. It works similar to video YouTube, where the video is buffered.

  The problem is that when I load the SWF file and run it, the audio start to play later. I tried more cases and the reason is that even if I load enough of the SWF, I can be certain I can start reading, because it is not enough for audio, if you start playing a little later. When I insert more, the audio begins to play immediately.

  So the question is, is there a way how can I check if the audio is loaded and ready to play?

  Thank you

  Michal

  If you can inspect the external swf fla enough to know that synchronize sound is set to stream, you should be able to look at the scenario where the sound is attached and determine the number of images, the sound is.

• Stop the external external SWF sound

  I'm working on the controls for an external swf. The external swf load an external audio file. The structure at the moment is

  extswf.swf contains mcSound that loads soundfile.mp3. extswf.SWF playback starts automatically when it is called.

  movieController contains the icons for the buttons play/pause. This is attributed to CntlClass.

  CntlClass load extswf.swf and control buttons play / pause.

  So far, the play buttons / break stop and start and stop the film, but not the sound. I know that I need to access the sound from the external swf channel and sound transformation allows you to change the volume. We know not how to access this channel.

  The examples that I think have integrated audio files. Also, the examples seem to use the main class for the external swf. My external swf is not a class file, so I have no idea what would be the main class.

  If someone has done this successfully, who would be willing to share?

  you follow my suggestion.  use:

  SerializableAttribute public class CntlClass extends MovieClip
  {
  public var loader: Loader;
  public var movie: MovieClip;

  public void CntlClass()
  {
  loader = new Loader();
  loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, movieLoaded);
  Loader.Load (new URLRequest ("extswf.swf"));

  mcPlay.buttonMode = true;
  mcPause.buttonMode = true;
  mcPlay.visible = false;
  }
         
  public void movieLoaded(event:Event):void
  {
  film = MovieClip (loader.content);

  loader.removeEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, movieLoaded);

  stage.addChild (movie);
  mcPause.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, pauseSWF);
  }
            
  public void pauseSWF(event:MouseEvent_=_null):void
  {
  Movie.Stop ();
         MovieClip (loader.content).channel.stop ();
  mcPlay.visible = true;
  mcPause.visible = false;
  }

  In extswf.swf:

  var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("noise.mp3");
  var sound: Sound = new Sound();
  channel: var SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();

  function soundLoaded(event:Event):void
  {
  sound.removeEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, soundLoaded);
  channel = sound.play().
  channel.addEventListener (Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, otherStuff);
  }

  function otherStuff(event:Event):void
  {

  Channel.Stop ();
  channel.removeEventListener (Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, otherStuff);
  }

  sound.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, soundLoaded);
  Sound.load() (req);

• Pause/Play for external SWF

  Can someone help me witht this? I'm going crazy trying to understand because none does not work. I am trying to create a play/pause button that will make a break and play on the main timeline (easy), but also an external SWF that is loaded with the class Loader. Here is my code:

  var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();

  Create a new instance of the Loader class

  var url: URLRequest = new URLRequest ("MYCONTENT.swf");

  myLoader.load (url);

  load the SWF file

  myLoader.x = 134;

  myLoader.y = 148;

  addChild (myLoader);

  In the main scenario, I have a MovieClip that is the Pause/Play button. He alternates between the two. How to control the external SWF as well?

  Section 1:

  Stop();

  pauseBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, pauseMovie);

  function pauseMovie(e:Event): void {}

  gotoAndStop (2);

  MovieClip (root) .stop ();

  MovieClip (root).myLoader.content.stop ();  ///??????????

  }

  Section 2:

  playBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, regarderMovie);

  function playMovie(e:Event): void {}

  gotoAndStop (1);

  MovieClip (root) .play ();

  MovieClip (root).myLoader.content.play ();  ///????????????

  }

  Try:

  var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();

  Create a new instance of the Loader class

  var url: URLRequest = new URLRequest ("MYCONTENT.swf");

  myLoader.load (url);

  load the SWF file

  myLoader.x = 134;

  myLoader.y = 148;

  addChild (myLoader);

• How to determine the total number of images in the external .swf file loaded

  I have to be able to load both external .swf files and make them play in order. To do this, I need to know the number of images in the first .swf file so I can check _currentframe against _totalframes to determine when he is finished playing so that I can load another.

  Most of the stuff I see indicate that _totalframes on an external .swf can be determined by loading the .swf in a container clip and then check using a listener in the .onLoadInit. Like this:

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------

  this.createEmptyMovieClip ("tester_mc", 1);
  var mcListener:Object = new Object();

  mcListener.onLoadInit = {function (target_mc:MovieClip)}
  target_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {}
  If (this ._currentframe > = this ._totalframes) {}
  trace ("total frames =" + this ._totalframes);
  delete this.onEnterFrame;
  } else {}
  trace (target_mc._currentframe + "OF" + target_mc._totalframes);
  }
  }
  }

  var test_mc:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
  test_mc. AddListener (mcListener);
  test_mc.loadClip ("Ad_Group.swf", tester_mc);

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------

  Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work. The trace will always return a total number of frames of 1.

  I guess it's because the container clip has only 1 frame, and the external .swf timeline seems to be ignored.

  I would appreciate any ideas on how to raise the total number of frames of an external .swf file or, Alternatively, put it another way when it's done playing. (Not only the loading, but play until the end.)

  TIA,

  C

  I guess it's because the container clip has only 1 frame, and the external .swf timeline seems to be ignored.

  I wouldn't imagine. My guess is that the main scenario for the external swf file has only 1 frame and the rest of the animation is inside a movieclip in this timeline. You publish this swf? Can you open the FLA and check how many images is open on the main timeline?

  The approach that you have mentioned is about what there is. But he knows check a chronology. If there are many nested movieclips, it may be impossible to understand what timeline you really want to be 'THE' full chronology.

  If you have the FLA, you can have the video call function on the _root timeline which tells the main swf that has completed a movieclip or something like that.

  Also, I have in my head somewhere that I recently saw something that someone made similar to this one, but do not remember... If it appears in my head that I will post.

• Loading an external SWF that loads XML

  Hey all, I have a SWF that loads a swf file in that load images from a XML file with Ned Murphy.  I have a new problem with him.  It works everywhere I try except on the Web server.  When I try I get nothing.  It does not seem to load external SWf file or it cannot load the XML file.  I don't know why.  Has anyone encountered this before? Thank you.

  EDIT

  It works if I try the SWF for the Web server but when I embed in an HTML file and run it through a broweser I get nothing.

  If the swf file is one of the html page that incorporates, you might have to adjust how target you files that loads SWFs.

  When you embed a SWF in a web page, whatever is in that loads the swf file must be targeted as if the swf is in the same folder as the html page that got him.  So if the html page uses something like "flash/main.swf" to integrate the SWF of high level, so if the top-level file is loaded another swf from the same flash file that it should also use the "flash/other.swf" without worrying that it is in the same folder on the server.  When it is embedded in the page, it's like being anywhere where this page.

• Loading an external SWF in Actionscript 2

  I'm creating an animation in Flash CS4 Actionscript 2.0 / Flash Player 7

  At the moment I have a Manager (video Clip) called myHolder which is used to play other swf files in a main swf file, when it is called by a button

  Within a button that loads the SWF in the main scenario - for example

  on (press) { loadMovie("BulletTrainDRAFT.swf", myHolder); }

  It works very well with bring the other swf files in the timeline of the main swf file, but when I put them a swf file that has video controls for a video it contains, they are not in Manager when played, but they do not work when the swf file is playing in its own window of external flash drive (the video is (Clip) on his own script in its fla design)

  Video buttons - ActionScript 2.0

  btnStop.onPress = function()
  {  _root.vid.stop();  } 
  btnPlay.onPress = function()
  {  _root.vid.play();  }  
  btn_fastforward.onPress = function()
  {  _root.vid.nextFrame();  }  
  btn_Rewind.onPress = function()
  {  _root.vid.prevFrame();  }

  I tried ActionScript 3.0 code so

  Pausebtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pauseHandler); 
  Stopbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopHandler); 
  Playbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playHandler);  
  
  function stopHandler(event:MouseEvent):void 
  { // Pause the stream and move the playhead back to // the beginning of the stream. video.gotoAndStop(1); } 
  function playHandler(event:MouseEvent):void 
  { // Pause the stream and move the playhead back to // the beginning of the stream. video.play(); } 
  function pauseHandler(event:MouseEvent):void 
  { // Pause the stream and move the playhead back to // the beginning of the stream. video.stop(); }

  Problem I have I think, is that an external swf movie load on the current timeline as a child and don't dump the chronology leading to the non-functional actionscript code, but I can't solve this problem.

  If the swf containing the video is an as2 swf, add:

  This ._lockroot = true

  It is the main timeline.

• Loading external SWF - I thought it would be easy...

  Apologies: I do not really have my head around AS3! All I want to do is stop the main timeline until an external SWF is loaded and then run the external SWF file. Everything works fine locally, but the server stops just the timeline. The ext SWF appears to load but then when it ends, nothing happens, the timeline is stopped and does not play the loaded SWF file.

  Here is the site: johnmarshallmedia.com/default.aspx

  Any help appreciated.

  The following actionscript code:

  Stop();

  
  

  var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("intro2.swf");

  var loader: Loader = new Loader;

  
  

  function fileLoaded(event:Event):void

  {

  addChild (loader);

  }

  loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, fileLoaded);

  
  

  Loader.Load (req);

  Use Firebug or Charles or Fiddler to see what happens when you run it on the server. Use Flash debug player to see the execution errors. The html code integrates the Flash in the same folder?

• External SWF load on buttons

  Hi all..

  I am loading a SWF file outside on click of a button, however, when the external SWF file loads, it covers the buttons... Can someone help me please on how I can keep the buttons on the top? I even tried the external SWF to load in a clip and place the buttons on a layer above - and it does not work... Any help would be great appreciated. Thank you advance!

  Here is my code:

  Table external to use staples. Variable index refers to the next clip is displayed.
  var clip: Array = ["page1.swf", "page2.swf", "page3.swf"];
  var int index = 0;

  Stuff to load swf files
  var thisLoader:Loader = new Loader();
  thisLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.INIT, doneLoading);

  var thisMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
  stage.addChild (thisMC);            Add MC initially empty so that the nextClip function can be generic

  Removes the old MC and gets the following, waiting until what, when it booted transfer, adding to the scene
  function nextClip (): void {}
  thisLoader.load (new URLRequest (clips [index]));
  }

  AS of Tell the loaded file is a video clip and add it to the stage.
  function doneLoading(e:Event):void {}
  stage.removeChild (thisMC);
  thisMC = MovieClip (thisLoader.content);
  thisLoader.unload ();
  stage.addChild (thisMC);
  thisMC.play ();
  }

  
  'Next button' just calls a function that indicates the file name following (mod the number of files in the list)

  bttn1_mc.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playNext);

  function playNext(e:MouseEvent):void {}
  nextClip();
  index = (index + 1)%(clips.length);
  }

  stage.addChild (bttn1_mc);
  bttn1_mc. Visible = true;

  You are welcome.

• Why I can't load external .swf boxes?

  Hello world...

  I am trying to load an external .swf that contains check boxes. The external .swf has a script in the applications folder on FMS3 server-side.

  When I insert the external .swf locally, it works fine.

  If I load the external .swf remotely with an Apache Web server, the external .swf is loaded but do not appear the boxes...

  Why?

  Please, help me...

  Emiliano.

  Are these components AS2 or AS3? If the latter, I would advise you to place the components in a RSLS (runtime shared library) and active in the external SWF, then reference the RSL.

• Loading an external swf

  I am trying to edit the FLA of the developer who disappears when the link to an external SWF is somehow broken. The button that triggers the SWF has the next action associated with it:
  
  (release)
  {
  gotoAndPlay ("collection")
  }
  
  There is no sequence named 'collection', only an external swf called 'spring.swf '. When I change the actionscript code to refer to "spring.swf" I get nothing.
  
  There is a layer of script which has a unique setting with a reference to spring.swf. His action reads as follows:
  
  Stop()
  loadVariables("flash/spring.swf",placeholder).
  
  This action occurs on the same chassis as an instance of the button.
  
  I am a novice to say the least and I am totally baffled. Thanks for any advice.
  
  

  The mention 'collection' is an image tag, not a scene, if look back through the timeline (or the use of the movie in the Actionscript Panel Explorer/script) to find a framework with this name. The button has nothing to do with the external SWF file loading, it's the handle in the second bit of code you have there... but I have to say I've never seen loadVariables used to pull in a SWF file, which should probably be loadMovie instead.

  Hope that helps!

• Using the DateField in an external SWF loaded

  Hello
  
  I had major trouble trying to get a PHP contact form basis to work within an external SWF file loaded within a parent SWF. When I test the movie on its own it seems to work fine (example: I am able to select a date in the DateField component). However, when I open the SWF file parent and call the external SWF file with the DateField shape is essentially unusable (example: when you click on it nothing happens, no calendar is displayed to select a date).
  
  I have no ActionScript on it yet, simply because I tell myself that I need to work before I tell him what to do with the PHP file. The name of the instance on the DateField is 'survive. ' Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
  
  Also, I used successfully the contact form on the web. But, UI components only that I am able to edit the input text boxes, not the DateField or ComboBox I have in there as well. It is very strange, I was not aware that he had to do something special with the help of these user interface components in an external file.

  Hey 2 m.

  In fact, I found a post on this forum who answered the way back in February in kglad. The answer to my problem was simply place the following code on the layer actions where my components have been posted:

  This ._lockroot = 1;

  That's all. Thank you at least 2 m.

• AS3 external swf close self

  Hello

  After looking through the forums online and video tutorials...

  I am always facing errors of loading an external swf into my main swf (full step width).

  In my main.swf... i have several scenes.

  On one of these scenes, I have an external SWF that loads my main.swf step size.

  Which works very well...

  BUT

  I now want to close the external swf on a button (in my external swf) and to return to one of my scenes in my hand. SWF

  I read many forums that talk about dispatchEvent

  I tried these methods and I am still facing errors.

  I want just one button on my external.swf that is farm/unloads/deletes itself... so that the user can continue by HAND. SWF after that they played OUTSIDE. SWF.

  in actionscript 2, it was a breeze.

  in as3, it's a useless pain in my rectum

  Sorry if I've missed a lot

  any help would be appreciated
