mp3 player stops and starts when flash playing #568

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Flash movie with wmode = transparent
2. Quicktime player for mp3 music
3. IE8

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see fireworks and hear music played. The fireworks display fine, 
but the music stops and starts. Firefox plays without interference and IE9, 
although slower, plays without interference.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? swfobject2 
IE8

Please provide any additional information below.
I have searched the Internet for a similar problem and have not found it 
reported anywhere. See www.letsdancevacations.com/DE-12-30-2011.php

Your SWF embeds fine.  

If you think Flash Player and Quicktime don't play nice together, then you need 
to check with Adobe (Flash Player) and Apple (Quicktime). SWFObject only embeds 
the SWF to the page and has no relationship to Quicktime.

I can give you a couple of tips, though:

1. Flash Player's wmode transparent uses a ton of CPU and often causes issues. 
It should be avoided when possible.

2. Your MP3 playback would be better handled by Flash than Quicktime, since 
more people have Flash installed than Quicktime, and since your graphics are in 
your Flash SWF anyway.

Sorry, but this is not the right place to seek help on this issue. This list is 
restricted to SWFObject bugs and feature requests. I suggest checking a Flash 
forum site such as actionscript.org or kirupa.com. Good luck!

I created a Flash mp3 player, as you suggested. Now IE9 plays both the music 
and the fireworks, but Firefox and IE8 only play the music. 

I figured out what the problem is. Sorry, but this forum really is the right 
place. Only one Flash was working because I had the same ID on both the flash 
MP3 player and the flash video for fireworks. I changed the IDs and added an 
additional swfobject.registerObject line. 
<script type="text/javascript">swfobject.registerObject("myFireworksPlayer", 
"9.0.0");   </script>
            <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="1296" height="876" id="myFireworksPlayer">
.......
It works in all three browsers now. Maybe someone else would benefit from this 
answer if you allow it to be posted.

This is not a forum, it's a bug tracker.  You are not documenting a bug, you're 
discussing an implementation issue (specifically a mistake in your code -- 
using the same ID twice). If you feel you'd like to discuss it with the 
SWFObject community, please post it in the proper place:
