Hi,
You should have a flash player plugin for each browser, maybe one
standalone & one IDE version. You can't change the IDE version, but if
this is different from the standalone one you may have problems.
Ctrl + Enter will be the IDE one (Test Movie).
If you double click a SWF outside of Flash, you are probably using
the standalone.
As an aside / for Jason - Kewbee Plugin Switcher is still a bit
funny / a pain installing stuff, but it seems to be okay with everything
but IE7 occasionally when it can't seem to install the latest version of
the player properly...
This may also be a problem with security - depending on your file
locations and how you are viewing them.
Have a look at the information here about security as you may have
different settings for local, online and testing:

You can use the Manager to configure your player.

Hi Glenn
I am currently focussed on running SWF but not Browser version beacuse in
the end i have to publish an exe of FLA file and give it to the management
for analysis. Also I checked the Kewbee's Plugin Switcher and it shows i
have 3 player versions installed 8.0 r22, 9.0 r115 amd 6.0r21. What i did I
right click on the SWF and try to run with all the players but none of them
work. I am not expert in flash but isn't that true that if Fla file is
working by hitting ctrl+enter, the independent SWF file should also work.
And I used Action Script 3.0, shouldn't my file just work with player
9.0.r115 which is the most updated player. Please help me out in figuring
out where I am wrong.
I will highly appreciate your help.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Your standalone Flash Player may be different from the one used by
the IDE...
If you are on Windows, you can install Kewbee's Plugin Switcher to
see which versions of each are running. Download from here:
http://www.pluginswitcher.de/
If you install it, start the program, wait for it to disappear, then
double click the icon that appears in your taskbar, you can see what
players are installed.
If you want, you can also use this to switch versions of Flash
Player for testing in browsers, etc. This is a bit tricky to set up -
you have to install a version of the Flash player for your browser, then
start each browser that uses it, then close the browser, then uninstall
the player for the browser and repeat for each version of the player you
want to use.
You can download old flash players from the adobe site - when you
get upto version 8 & 9, there are different sub-versions for different
browsers - this confused me for a while...
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ The "Archived versions"
link is on the RHS, it was temporarily unavailable when I just looked,
but try later - direct link here:

Hi All
I am developing a video Gallery in AS 3.0.
- I am providing thumbnails and XML is loading external FLvs in
those
thumbnails .
- The user can either double click or click and drag thumbnail to
play the main video above the particular line.
- I am calling external SWFs in the UIloader component for playing
the
main video. That UIloader will be called when the user either double
clicks
on thumbnail or click and drag the thumbnail.
- Also user can drag the main video wherever he wants, and he can
drop
the main back to the thumbnails too( which will unload the video
player).
My problem is that everything is working fine when i run the FLA file,
but
when i closed my application and try to run the individual SWF file, the
file does not work ( its just crashing).
There are no frames I am using so that's for sure that i did not forget
to
put stop frame.
All of my code is in the main time line and I haven't used any custom
classes yet, which means everything is in the actions window.
Am i using the right tool for such a big application? Should I switch to
FLEX for compiling this file. i am not that familiar with FLEX working
environment too.
Please help me out what i am doing wrong and i apologize that I could
not
mail you the code because the file is very very big. Also if any better
tool
is available for this please let me know.
Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot
Anuj
