ActionScript 2.0 :: FLVPlayback Ideal Value For Buffer Time?
Jan 11, 2008
I wanted to know if there is any ideal value for the buffer time for a video streaming. What factors determine the video player's buffertime so that the video plays smoothly at the client end. I'm using a buffer time of 6 sec. My video is expected to be between 1 - 7 min. and The player is be hosted on a public website, which means the audience could be with varying internet bandwith. How do i know if 6 sec is perfect for my audiences or not. Is there bright idea?

I tried to look this up, but can't seem to find what I am looking for. How do I hide the FLV Buffer in the beginning and the playback controls that come with it?

Flash version CS3 AS version AS3 Skill level - AS2 Flash 8 - better than Average. Skill level - AS3 - a little better than beginner.
Problem: Creating an FLV movie using CS3 / AS3 FLVPlayback component. Having problems with buffering issues - large FLV file 23 MB
I'd like to add either text or an animated movie clip that displays a "buffering" message before the movie is loaded enough to play AND if the play head catches the buffer, I want it to show again until the movie has rebuffered and then disappear when it starts playing again.
how this can be done with a custom player using netstream, but having a heck of a time finding anything that shows how to do it with the FLVPlayback component.
What I've done:
This is my video as it stands at the moment. [URL]
I have added a progress bar per the instructions in this tutorial [URL] (I used the section titled: "Adding a progress bar component" - the code is identical to what is displayed there.)
However, even though the progress bar is displayed, it is not displayed long enough for enough of the FLV to be buffered to play smoothly.
Hence my interest in adding a 'buffering' message. Either that, or display the progress bar long enough to buffer enough of the movie so that it doesn't stutter or stall during initial playback.

I have an flvplayback component on the stage of a parent flash project. One can preview a video that has some text overlaying it that the user entered in a previous scene. Dynamic cuepoints sync the video with the overlaying text.If the viewer doesn't like the preview they can go back to the previous scene, edit the text, and rewatch/preview the video with the overlaying text to make sure they like it.
I'm running into an issue when they stop watching the video preview, they go back to the previous scene and they return to the video preview scene. I stop the video with a .stop() and I rewind it with a .seek(0) but when they return to the video player and rewatch the video there's a brief audio pop. I'm assuming the pop is a bit of video/audio left in the buffer of the flvplayback component.
My question is - is there a way or what is the best way to clear the buffer of the flvplayback component when I rewind the video so it can be replayed?Is there a better way to rewind an flvplayback to the beginning other than .stop() & seek(0) so I don't get a audio pop when it's replayed?

A website I've recently encoded has HTML5 video that falls back to a Flash video for IE browsers. The MP4 video is played through a SWF file with an FLVPlayBack component, and works perfectly on my company's staging environment. However, once we moved the files to the client's live site, the video's buffering does not work properly. Instead of showing the video controllers and progress bar as the video loads, nothing is shown until the video file is completely downloaded (about 50MB)Here are the settings used for the SWF file and FLVPlayBack Component:
FLVPlayBack:
autoPlay: off
autoRewind: on

Briefly, I'm a beginner in Flash. I need to do a short presentation with flash. The presentation will be mainly a combo of text slides transitions and 20% of it will be animated stick figures. The presentation will be shown to a group of enclosed audience in an auditorium in school. I'll hook up the laptop and the projector to play it.
I've not done this before and would not have a chance to test it out until the actual day of the presentation. I'm getting knots in my stomach worrying if what I see on my computer will not turn out to be the same on a projector in an auditorium environment.

I recently to created a simple movie with FLVPlayback component. I have customized all of its controls (play, pause, volume, progress). I have also created a simple Table of contents for movie with four buttons. Every button jumps to different place in movie.
Problem starts to happen when i want to jump to movie position that haven't been downloaded yet. My question regards this situations. Can I tell FLVPlayback component to start buffering from different position?
In other words do it always have to be starting from begining of the movie. Can I start buffer movie for example from the middle of it?

I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I really don't know what that refers too.

I have employed two different methods to embed an flv movie in webpage, but both result in studdering because the movie catches up to the buffer. I can't figure out what is wrong... is the frame of 30fps rate too high? is my method of embedding the files and playback wrong? Or is it just a function of the viewer's internet speed?
Method 1:
Dreamweaver > Insert Flash Video
FLV size: 13,428kb
Play time: 2:31

I'm trying to figure out how to REMOVE any buffer on video. So imagine it like this. You have a live stream set up on a server, and a flash app plays that live stream. I need it to use rtsp as well.does anyone know how this is done in flash? or a way in flash to view/show live feeds?
Similar to using VLC Player, and upening up a rtsp feed, it plays in the player. I need that exactly, or very close to using flash.

I'm trying to make a preloader for the buffer for a 19MB video. I can trace everything, but the math won't do.
Preloading the video itself is no problem. But what I want is to make a xx% preloader for the buffer of this video.[code]...

Once the video starts playing i would like the spinning circle to show again while the video buffers again if the user has a slow internet connection.

I have built a video gallery. All videos are stored on a video hosting server. Throughout my timeline, I have various FLVPlayers mapped to their relevant video. The videos are generally from 45 mins to 1 hr 15 mins in length. I am finding that the video doesn't start to play until a player has been sitting there for 5-7 mins. I am assuming this has something to do with the buffer timeframes HOWEVER, when I attempt to access the same MP4's through Google Chrome, they start playing within 10 seconds.
There is no actionscript refering to the videos or onClip handlers. The video players are there and simply refer to URL of the video it should be playing.

My video is a bit jerky at the moment at the beginning. Can I somehow have my adobe swf player load up a generously sized buffer before it starts to play, or is that not the issue? Later on in the video, the jerkiness is not an issue.

I have a video file FLV which is dynamically loaded using AS NetStream function.Now I want to stop the buffering of the video after a certain amount of bytes are being loaded. For example, the FLV size is 10mb and I want to PAUSE the buffer after the 2mb of bytes are loaded. During the PAUSE of the buffer, the connection should be ON and I should be able to play the video.Is there any way we can PAUSE the buffer and after certain amount of time, we again can START the buffering process? Say it should again start buffering after 2 minutes.

I have been browsing different tutorials on video here at Kirupa but I always stumble on how to control my quicktime movies. I have a project and it involves loading a couple of quicktime movies. My main problem is that I can not preload or buffer the quicktime movie so that it plays continuously. In the editing stage, when I imported my quicktime movie, I chose a controller to forward and backward the movie scenes, but when you publish it, it's not showing. Please point me to the right direction here Here is the link:[URL]

I'm using netStream to stream dynamically loaded flv's into a video gallery. I've created a "buffering" animation called "bufferCounter" that loops while the stream is buffering. However, it keeps reappearing at odd times in front of the movie.
I'm assuming it's doing this because the buffer is no longer at 100%, but I can't seem to work around it.
Here is my code for reference:
Code:
// Create a NetConnection object
var netConn:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// Create a local streaming connection

I used a template from adobe and modified it to fit my needs. Instead of one long video with cuepoints, I have several videos that I want to switch when the buttons are clicked.verything works great except when the user seeks beyond the buffer (progressive download).hen this happens, everything breaks. All of the buttons, playback, play/pause... everything. You have to refresh the page and start over.My quesiton is, does the seekBar need a custom eventHandler? Shouldn't it work on it's own? Here is my code:
import flash.events.*;import fl.video.*;
//-----------------// Video control assignment//-----------------
display.playPauseButton = play_btn;display.stopButton = stop_btn;display.seekBar =
