[AS2] How to gotoAndPlay at the end of a FLVPlayback movie

[emmanuel33]

Hi guys,

I have a quick question that should be easy enough to solve...

I have a FLVPlayback instance on my main timeline and when it is done playing its movie I would like to be able to gotoAndPlay to a specific frame in my main timeline. Is there an action I can add to that FLVPlayback instance?

I've tried tracing what _currentframe my FLVPlayback movie is at but it keeps on reporting frame number 1. Is there something wrong with my FLV movie?

Thanks in advance!

You can use a listener to know when its done playing, maybe you can adapt the code in this post to suit your needs... also review the link i that post also from the help docs.

in the example below my instance name for my flvplayer is ambient_FLVPlybk, so you would need to change that part to whatever your instance name is.

var ambientLoop:Object = new Object();
ambientLoop.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
//place you goToandPlay(someFrame) here
};
ambient_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("complete",ambientLoop);

Thanks for the replies. You guys definitely pointed me in the right direction.

Here is the code that I inserted on my FLVPlayback instance :

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
stopAllSounds();
_root.gotoAndPlay(100);
};
this.addEventListener("complete",listenerObject);
}
