speed control in flash movie

[srinuseshu]

hi,

i have code for simple flash player . its working fine for playing '.swf' files . i want to put some enhancements to that.. previously i incuded one button and wrote some code for that. its also working fine. Now i want to include a comboBox with 4 options related to speed of movie
1) 1x ,2) 2x, 3) 3x , 4) 4x

needed functionalities:

1. when i select 2x, the movie play with 40 frames per second
2. when i select 3x, the movie play with 100 frames per second
3. when i select 4x, the movie play with 250 frames per second
4. when i select 1x, the movie play with 12 frames per second
(default frame rate).


i desined comboBox & wrote action script code and checked it with put some trace statements...its working fine .. means when i select any one of the options the trace statement inside that was displayed.

here the problem is how can i achieve above functionalities stated above??......... any idea?????



thank you in adv & srinu

stage.frameRate:int sets the frame rate.

A word of warning; you may have trouble getting flash player to consistently run at 400fps.

ya i used the command

stage.framerate = 200;

but i did not get any change in speed of movie ......



i wrote the code as following

if(combo.value == "3X")
{
trace("speed 3X is selected");
stage.frameRate = 200;
trace("frame rate = 200");
}


it displays in console as

speed 3x is selected
frame rate == 200

but movie did not effected

I think that stage.frameRate is read-only...
Edit: Scratch that. It's read-write.

plz explain me in detail..............
