SWF animation in slider #492

Closed tyte closed 11 years ago

tyte commented 11 years ago

Hello! I have a problem with using SWF animation in anythingslider.

I want SWF animation to play automatically (that is 15s long) and when its done go automatically to other slides (that last for 5s).

And one more thing I would like - if a person for example goes to other slide manually, I would like SWF start playing from the begining again when the slide with animation is active again.

Could you please help me with that? Maybe there is other file format I should use to make it work?

Hi tyte!

Which SWF player are you using to play your animation? Most flash players have some kind of API that you can use to pause, play, detect if a video/animation is playing and setting/resetting the starting point.

Just a simple flash player that eveyrbody can download?

Ok, how are you initializing it? HTML and any associated javascript would help.

I just wanted to make sure, but it seems the basic flash player doesn't expose the javascript api, so you'll need to pick a specific player for your swf, like JW Player, but I read somewhere that you won't know the timing or when the player ends. So, maybe the best idea is to use a swf to flv converter, like this one.
