Hello, am a n00b at autoit, i would like help to put a SWF into a GUI window. Can somebody help?

Here is one I found by searching the forums

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF
    .Movie = 'http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/games/pacman/pacman.swf'; the wave file from inet / could be on disk
    .ScaleMode = 2
    .Loop = True
    .wmode = "Opaque"; Opaque / transparent
;.Stop / .Play
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

$oRP = 0; FREE THE OBJECT
GUIDelete ()
Exit

It says i have an error on line 2

$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")

$pRP = ERROR

Update your version of AutoIt.

It says i have an error on line 2

$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")

$pRP = ERROR

Thank you, it works

I'm running this through beta run and am getting an error:

Line 6

With $oRP

Error: Illegal text at the end of statement (one statement per line)

Only Object-type variables allowed in a WITH statement!

Any help.

Edit: I dropped the $oRP to the next line after the "With" and now AutoIt3.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Now what?

I have just tried running it with the latest Beta and get no errors. Please check that you have copied and pasted correctly.

[Champak 3]

Did it again and it is copied exactly. Could it be because I have both beta and release on the computers. They are in two different dir..

You have to make sure your running in Beta, In SciTe use Alt+F5 rather than just F5 or Tools / Beta Run. This is a most common mistake.

That's what I did. Now I'm looking in the error at the bottom of the scite thing and this is what it says:

C:\Documents and Settings\Money\Desktop\Gui test\pacman.au3 (2) : ==> Unknown function name.: 
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1") 
$oRP = ^ ERROR
->AutoIT3.exe ended.rc:1
>Exit code: 1   Time: 0.721

This is after I moved the oRP back, as it is in the original.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF

Well I ran it for the first time using Beta 3.1.118 and 3.1.123 and it ran just fine just like this:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF
    .Movie = 'http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/games/pacman/pacman.swf'; the wave file from inet / could be on disk
    .ScaleMode = 2
    .Loop = True
    .wmode = "Opaque"; Opaque / transparent
;.Stop / .Play
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

$oRP = 0; FREE THE OBJECT
GUIDelete ()
Exit

Edit:

You know, as many problems as you are having with Beta, I would suggest uninstalling AutoIt and doing a fresh install of both.

[Champak 3]

I'll do that

Edit: I unitstalled, wiped the registry, reinstalled, same problem. I guess I'll just forget about this part of what I want to do.

this is a strange problem, someone has informed me they are experiencing this error, the thing is, they are using a compiled exe which works fine on my and other PC's...

any solutions been found yet?

This is just a guess but it could have something to do with the version of Flashplayer installed on the computer? I would make sure you have the latest version installed.
