[Flashcoders] Stop loading sounds

2007-02-25 Thread Omar Fouad

i have a Sound object called mySound
i set it to load an mp3 and set is streaming to true as follow:
mySound.load(file.mp3, true);

so it plays and buffers the mp3 untill the load is complete.

Actually i need my stop button to stop the song and to stop it buffering!!!
as in buffering will let the movie itself load the external swfs very
slowly. is there something that pauses streaming i can use in this case


Thanks so much

[Flashcoders] Flash exe and Vista

2007-02-25 Thread Robin Burrer
Hi there,

I'm using swf studio as a swf wrapper. Unfortunately swf studio has not
been updated for vista yet. As a result you have to have administrator
rights to run the flash app. 

Even more annoying is the fact that if you just run the application by
double-clicking the exe (or through an autorun file on a CD-ROM) the exe
won't start but will still be listed in the task manager. This means
that you manually have to quit the application in the task manager
before you can start the exe as an administrator. 

The worst thing about this whole issue is that Microsoft didn't think it
was necessary to inform the user in any way when he tries to run a
legacy exe.
No error message - nothing. The app just won't start.

So my question is: Are there any workarounds yet? Do other swf wrapper
tools already work with vista? 

I came up with this idea of creating a vista compatible windows form
application. This application would then open an alert popup window,
which informs the user that the application which is about to be
launched (my flash exe) requires administrator rights. It would then
prompt the user to 
Run the application as an administrator, start the flash exe and quit.

Not sure if this is possible though ...


Any thoughts?


Robin

Why will the following error be thrown? Shouldn't the displayObject be null?


  try {
removeChild(getChildByName(background));
  } catch (typeError:TypeError) { 
// do nothing
  }

  var displayObject:DisplayObject = getChildByName(background);
  if (displayObject) {
throw new Error(Why!?!);

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash exe and Vista

2007-02-25 Thread David Townsend
Heya All,

Apparently Northcode are working on an update to make the system work with
Vista, from memory there is something in the forum about it. 

mProjector (www.screentime.com) does apparently work fine with Vista,
although they do not appear to have done a full and complete test as yet
(they just haven't had any problems reported). 

I am in the same boat as you. I use SWF Studio but I have to have a working
version for Vista before I can publish, so the present situation is very
frustrating.
