RE: FLASH: Need Load Movie expert!

[Dave Hollinden]

Maybe you're not really unloading the movie when you think you are.  If you

have a Stop action in the movie, it shouldn't loop, and from your letter I'm

assuming it doesn't loop until you try to unload it at the end. Could you

possibly be reloading the movie by mistake rather than unloading it?

Another thing you could try is to create a dummy swf with no content in it,

and then load that into level 10.  I know it's not a great solution, but it

should definitely unload the audio movie and help you debug the problem.

Ok I sorted out my problems with creating the projector and the problem of 

screen going blank.


The only issue I can't seem to fix is I took the audio and placed it on

level 

10 and I have told the audio to stop in the movie and I also told the 

controller movie to unload the movie on level 10 at the end. For some

strange 

reason it will loop back to the begining and run the sound again. The other 

movies loading stay where they are and only the sound has this problem.


Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jester

I am using the load movie command to load 7 movies together 6 are the actual


movies and 1 is audio. I have the audio loading on level 0 and the the

movies 

are loading on level 1. When one movie gets done it calls the next movie in 

level 1.


The problem I am having is when one movie calls another there is a second 

where the screen goes blank. Is there a way to have it not does this?


* IT would be better to load the next movie into another level and check to

see that it is loaded and ready to play, and then unload the first movie.


Second the audio on level zero will reloop and start again at the end even 

when I give the unload movie command.


* Load the audio into another level.  Save level 0 for you controller movie,

because level 0 contains all of the other levels, and if you unload level 0

you will unload your entire presentation.  Load the audio into level 10, for

instance, and put a Stop action in a frame after the frame with your audio

file so that the movie doesn't loop.


And last When I create a projector of the first file that calls everything 

then none of the .swf files that are referenced in the load movie work. 


* I don't know how to do this.


I am building this for a CD presentation. If anyone has any ideas that would


help it would be much appreciated.


Thanks,

Jester
