Topic: ControlPanel Resetting

Ive created a custom flash file on a USB and run it as controlpanel.swf, problem is that every 30sec it resets. Any suggestions?

Re: ControlPanel Resetting

Yes - any "control panel" needs to write a heartbeat file avery 15 seconds or so to let the player know that it's still alive.

_global._putFile = ASnative(5,51);
...
_putFile("/tmp/movieheartbeat","1"); // do this every 15 seconds

That's what I needed to do with mine as well; and it worked. Thanks, Duane!
