Sorry- had a client fire that has taken my attention away for a day...

First, I started a new project in After Effects last night... but made it so that only the video area I needed to display...

isn't that crazy? Who would have thought the the alpha channel- where nothing shows- would take up so much file weight (size)?

the craziest thing of all is why the original tests displayed no...

Hi Eye,

Test 16. And this is nothing compared to the orginal quality. Cheers! The file size is sooo small without the alpha...

mgason- you know, I took out the Masking layer and examples 9, 10 & 11 went much, much more smoothly on the test PC (cheapo machine). As a matter of fact, #11 showed no jerkiness at all.

Eye for...

Hi Eye- Good point. I don't know about controlling the bitrate separately, but I was thinking that since the alpha is a part the screen doesn't have to re-draw, that it would help in playback. I'm a...

OK- I understand. I also think I asked the incorrect question! (I've been notorious for doing that- ha)

Does the bitrate of the alpha transparency area influence anything?

Hey Eye! Thanks again for so much insight! I got carried away with Holiday the last three days and haven't had a chance to try anything but I have a good idea of what you were suggesting. Hopefully...

Thanks for taking the time to respond, Eye. I really appreciate it. I've read some of your other insightful responses. FlashKit is lucky to have someone like you on here.

I'm sorry I wasn't...

I like this player, too. It can be embedded into an existing Flash™ project.

Sounds like the 48 kHz and the 32-bit floating point are the source of your issues. If this for a video then it is likely a WAV file (If I'm understanding everything correctly). I would try dithering...

I have a Flash™ AS2 (Using Flash CS4) file that required some video imports.

The videos were shot at 1280x720 at 29.97 fps against a green screen.

I brought the 1-minute clips into Adobe After...

Hi Dean-

I apolgize no one answered your thread. I share your issues and frustration.

I have a lot of troubles with AS3 as well because I'm a frontend designer who's been using Flash since...

Hi All,

I'm using Flash™ CS4, AS2.0

Looking through this forum, I can see folks are might smarter than I when it comes to AS... you might say I sometimes don't know my AS from a hole in the...

Hi Folks,

I'm not even sure what to search for here since everything I've seen so far refers to a counter within the HTML page embedding the SWF file.

I have a SWF file that is acting like a...

Brilliant... worked beautifully. Thank you, thank you!

Peace,
Chad

Hi Gurus... a non-programmer Flash user here, please be gentle. However, I'm looking for examples only, as I don't understand what I'm seeing in most of the Help Files. :)

What's going on: I have...

thanks- this worked for me!

I'm getting errors with this:

// button script to unload
buttonName.onRelease = function()
{
holder.unloadMovie();
}

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks Dricciotti!!!!

Would this code work if it were placed all into one Movie Clip on the mainstage?

In other words, I have my main timeline, and I've set a MC within this timeline that has...

Hi Gurus

My name is Chad and I'm an Alcoholic. (clapping)

I'm using Flash MX.

I posted a similar question in "Flash MX" but I think I headlined the thread incorrectly. So I'm posting in...

Thanks MarshdaBeachy

But I'm looking for a direct answer to the code.. I'm not a programmer by any stretch... not to say I don't appreciate your reponse! It's just that looking at code doesn't...

OK Gurus...

My Flash™ is approaching 29 MB, and my SWF is 4 MB so right now I'll just have to give code examples...

I'm not a programmer, but I fould some ActionScipting that would help load...

Hi Estudioworks.

This is an actionscript movie I took from FlashKit.

In one frame, I have this AS:

// Actionscripter : Ed Reyes 2002 / ED REYES DESIGN STUDIO (c) 2002
// [ XML FILE FOR...

Hi Gurus-

Can anyone explain as to why Flash will sometimes NOT display text from an XML source?

Example-

I have this flash file.

It calls up content from an XML file.

OK- this is probably a moronic question for this forum but I just would like to know...

Some sites, like weather.com and msn.com have Flash ads that go across the screen before settling down into...
