In Flash CS4, if I create a new AS3 file and use File > Import > Import Video to bring in an mp4 video it works great. However, if I create a new scene and import the video into that, I instantly get this error at runtime:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/__setProp___id0__Scene2_Layer1_0()
at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Is this normal behaviour? I don't get this error using AS2. How can I add the FLVPlayback object to a different scene in AS3 without explosions?
Never EVER, EVER, ever, EvEr, eVER use scenes, they are inherently evil and will make your life miserable. I'm sorry, but that's the best answer I've got.
