MCTE V3 using videoclips
(2007-11-14 - views: 907)
Q: Hello !
First of all let me congratulate You on some very nice components :-)
I am using the MCTE V3 engine with several patterns that i purchased. I have experimented with them some now, and they work well. However i cannot figure out a way to use the transition effects with videoclips, such as flv files.
My guess is that the components use the Bitmap class to do the transitions between clips, and therefor the content is therefor just a "snapshot" of the actual MC.
Is there any way to go around this so that You for instance could do a Swap thransition between 2 flv clips ??
Thank You in advance for Your help.
Best regards
Anders

A: Anders, you're right in your supposition. These patterns use the Bitmap class to do the transitions between clips and the content (as you assumed) it's just a "snapshot" of the actual MC. The bad news is that the Swap pattern can't be used on animated contents (animated movieclips, video files embedded into a movieclip, interactive mc's). The good news is that all other patterns we have can be used to display animated content because the "effect" is removed and the content became interactive when transition ends.

swap effect - snapshot
Yes Andres, ONLY the Swap pattern have this behavior. Of course there are many patterns that are using the "snapshot" technique but because of the reflection effect, the Swap pattern cannot "play" the content when the transition ends.

One last question. What would be the correct way to play the content after the transition end ? Let´s say i use the Loader Pro V3 with the 3D cube pattern. Do i use the Loaders built in transition end listener and then simply:
my_mc_instance.gotoAndPlay(2);
I supose also that i will need to have a "stop();" command in the first frame of that clip ?
Thank You in advance

Great example. Can You load an flv directly into the loader or does it have to be embedded in a SWF ?

Loader and FLV
The Loader Pro V3 is only a "simple" loader component not a flv player so you must embed the flv inside a SWF as you assumed :).

I see. Could You please state what other patterns (if any), has this limitation. I guess that for example the "Switch" or "3D cube" patterns also use the Bitmap Class and therefor has this limitation also ??
Or is it only the "Swap" effect ?
Thank You in advance :-)
