If you are editing a Flash file like a menu and you can’t open the “Actions – Button” panel and only you see is “Actions – Frame” and you are 100% sure that you are dealing with actual buttons here is what you do:

Where you can see the layers, there is a lock icon, for every layer there must be a dot under it rather than a lock; so you have to unlock the layers before you can see the “Actions – Button” layer. To do this, simply click on each layer’s lock icon and that will turn it into a dot. Then go to “Window > Actions” and select a button and voila.

I hope this helps someone

It’s very simple, hit F9

I wish it was more obvious to beginners though.

After some time of working on this I found that with the following code, I could get the best quality when recording videos with Flash:

camera.setMode(300, 240, 30);
// camera.setKeyFrameInterval(CAMERA_KEY_FRAME_INTERVAL); /* Comment this out */
camera.setQuality(0, 0);

Funny, with 15 frames per second, there was a lot of problems, but 30 frames per second fixed all the issues for me.

Please do let me know if you have a better solution

There is an issue with this post, read it and then read this:

This is also one of those things that I couldn’t really find a real solution to online, so with some tests and experiments, I came up with this solution which I’m not sure if it’s the best solution.

First you will need to attach an event to your incoming stream, assuming your stream is clientStream:

/* ... */
clientStream = new NetStream(serverConnection);
clientStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, PlayerStatusHandler);

Then you will need a member variable or a variable in the global scope to keep the latest status:

var playerLastEvent:String = new String();

Now the PlayerStatusHandler which again, I don’t think it’s very pretty:

function PlayerStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent) {
	if (playerLastEvent == "NetStream.Buffer.Flush" &&
		event.info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty") { /* Stopped */
		StopPlayback(event); /* Or any other thing you want to do */
	} else if (playerLastEvent == "NetStream.Buffer.Flush" &&
			   event.info.code != "NetStream.Buffer.Empty")
		playerLastEvent = ""; /* Sometimes it throws the Flush event */
	else if (event.info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Flush")
		playerLastEvent = "NetStream.Buffer.Flush";
}

So as you can see, we are looking for the Flush event that is followed by an Empty event.

This is just tested on my connection and I don’t really know how this works on slow connections, where the buffer is empty often but maybe you can tell me

I wish there was an event to show the real end of the stream.
