Flash Embedded Audio/Video & Lectora
October 27, 2009 12:00 AM
Hi guys,
I could really do with some fresh eyes on this really simple (I feel) problem.
I have imported a couple of swf's into a module that I am developing. I created these swf's and it plays perfectly on its own - either as a standalone / rendered object. However when I import it into Lectora - (in preview and published modes) the swf file wants to cycle itself once throughout before going back to the first frame. Then onwards it behaves the way it should!
I am sure there is something really simple that I am missing out on. I will list the things that I have tried so far:
- Pause the object on page load. This then disables the continue next button. which I will have to reanable it with another button (i.e.) return control to the swf object which then goes on to "cycle" through the frames first.
- Do a timed load / show of the object - still same problem (just in case the object did not load fully - but then again it was a bottom up load that I specified in flash!)
This happens to a video swf object as well - however due to the design the user cannot see that it is being cycled - just one frame in the vid object!
The second issue I am having is trying to link to a subdirectory within the module. If I want to display an internal page, say called from a subdirectory then it keeps returning a "protocol not supported" error. What I think is that it is trying to consider the path as a protocol!
Maybe I am way of the mark here...but any help would be very very valuable!
Thanks in advance guys.
Alex.
