Roll_out glitch?

[MBR]

Hi

I'm making a Flashbanner which shows a movietrailer on rollover. All this works fine, and so does the banner. EXCEPT!

If you roll in and out to quickly, it's like the movie gets confused about which frames it's in, and suddenly it works 'backwards', showing the movie when the mouse is NOT on the banner - obviously to great annoyance for the user.

I tried the 'Mouse_leave'-command but it has a weird effect and either makes the roll_over not function - or has the trailer keep playing.

stop();

function btnOver(event:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).main_mc.gotoAndPlay(140)}

function btnOut(event:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).video_mc.gotoAndPlay(10)}


clicker_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnOver);
clicker_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, btnOut);
clicker_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function():void {
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest(getClickTag()),"_blank");});

Maybe you could shrink your invisible button, so that a margin of 10px can't be ROLL_OVER'ed.
This way, when ROLL_OUT'ing, you'll always touch the actual swf banner part that's not a button, thus triggering the ROLL_OUT function.

I'v tried this but only with a 5 px border - it still glitches when I move the cursor too fast.

Give this a try:

stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, btnOver);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, btnOut);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_LEAVE, btnOut);

var mouseInside:Boolean = false;

function btnOver(event:MouseEvent):void {
    if(!mouseInside){
        mouseInside = true;
        MovieClip(root).main_mc.gotoAndPlay(140);
    }
}

function btnOut(event:MouseEvent):void {
    if(mouseInside){
        mouseInside = false;
        MovieClip(root).video_mc.gotoAndPlay(10);
    }
}
