rewind

[ampslinger]

I am looking to use action script to make a rewind button that only rewinds 20 frames and stop. No matter where the person is in the movie. I am using flash and quicktime to make an instructional guitar video for some friends. I want them to be able to rewind just the last lic and then hit play, to try it again.

Hi
There are many sample FLAs and components on this site and elsewhere that you can use and then adjust to what you are looking for.
You can look here:

You can also look on our site here:

Look under "Creating Customized Multimedia Players with Flix and Flash:"

To add fast foward and fast rewind create two buttons.

on the ffwd button put this code

on (press) {
	_root.ffwd = true;
}
on (release) {
	_root.ffwd = false;
}

on the frwd button put this code

on (press) {
	_root.frwd = true;
}
on (release) {
	_root.frwd = false;
}

Place an instabce MC of the video on the main timeline with an instance name of "vid" and put this code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	if (_root.ffwd == true) {
		frame = this._currentframe +20
		this.gotoAndStop (frame);
	}
	if (_root.frwd == true) {
		frame = this._currentframe -20
		this.gotoAndStop (frame);
	}
}

on the "play" button put this code:

on (release) {
	_root.vid.play();
}

You can even add a pause button:

on (release) {
	_root.vid.stop();
}

It's that easy
Hope this helps!
