Using events in an external swf to load a new external swf
- by wdense51
Hi
I'm trying to get an external swf to load when the flv content of another external swf finishes playing.
I've only been using actiosncript 3 for about a week and I've got to this point from tutorials, so my knowledge is limited.
This is what I've got so far:
Code for External swf (with flv content):
import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
motionClip.playPauseButton = player;
motionClip.seekBar = seeker;
motionClip.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, goNext);
function goNext(e:VideoEvent):void {
nextFrame();
}
And this is the code for the main file:
var Xpos:Number=110;
var Ypos:Number=110;
var swf_MC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("arch_reel.swf");
addChild (swf_MC);
swf_MC.x=Xpos
swf_MC.y=Ypos
loader.load(defaultSWF);
swf_MC.addChild(loader);
//Btns Universal Function
function btnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
SoundMixer.stopAll();
swf_MC.removeChild(loader);
var newSWFRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("motion.swf");
loader.load(newSWFRequest);
swf_MC.addChild(loader);
}
function returnSWF(event:Event):void{
swf_MC.removeChild(loader);
loader.load(defaultSWF);
swf_MC.addChild(loader);
}
//Btn Listeners
motion.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,btnClick);
swf_MC.addEventListener(swf_MC.motionClip.Event.COMPLETE,swf_MC.motionClip.eventClip, returnSWF);
I'm starting to get an understanding of how all of this works, but it's all to new to me at the moment, so I'm sure I've approached it from the wrong angle.
Any help would be fantastic, as I've been trying at this for a few days now.
Thanks
