I've got 30 songs loaded into two playlists 15 songs each. Right now everything works great when clicked, I can not figure out how to get this thing to auto play. I am hoping there is a way to start playlist1 onload, and when it plays through the 15 songs then go onto to play,
playlist2 = mp3_playlist2.xml and
playlist1 = mp3_playlist.xml

I have a series of mp4 videos (H.236 @ 22 fps) streaming from an akamai FMS serve via RTMP protocol in flash player 9+ with AS 3.My goal is to create client side playlists that smoothly switch from one stream to another. I am creating these playlists using a series of netStream. play (filename,start,len) methods. If I don't use an offset for the start parameter, then the stream switches smoothly from one video to the next with not noticeable jump or jerkiness. However if I introduce a start offset, say a few seconds in, I start to see a quick little hiccup or pause between the seams as it switches from one playlist stream to the next.
View 1 RepliesIs it just me or is there some content missing from AS3 live docs? I am looking for match, replace and search which I thought were available on String, if not in RegExp page. On the RegExp page there are links to Sting.match(), String.replace() and String.search() but none of them seem to go to the right place in the String page.
View 2 RepliesBasically, I have a movie with a set of buttons which show some information when clicked or mouseover. Effectively, until i have clicked onto a button there is white space and when clicked, the information shows in this whitespace.What I would like to do is when the movie is loaded I would like to pretend the user has already clicked the first button, thus showing information and not white space. I can get the movie to do this however I cannot get this to then following the rest of the actionscript. It remains loaded.
In short what I am looking for is some sort of onLoad function to pretend the first button has been clicked and then ignore or unload the command and ONLY repeat this if the movie is loaded again (refresh etc)It is a movie clip NOT a button, sorry. So I would like to load the first movie clip (there are 15 in total) then cancel this command when the user interacts and clicks to move on.I have added this to the first moviemc.onLoad = function() {this.gotoAndStop(10);}But this just keeps repeating itself when the user clicks another mc to move to the next item. I need this to only happen once on load.
I followed along with Lee Brimlow's video playlist tutorial utilizing the list component and XML - easy enough. I'm looking to add another level of complexity to a playlist which would involve some sort of checkbox or radio buttons associated with each item in a playlist. You could then choose to display only 2 or 3 videos of a 10 video playlist, for example.I'm not expecting anyone to write the script out for me. However, I would be very appreciative if anyone could steer me in the right direction to get started. I've been searching for things like "selectable playlist" but that of results in a playlist that allows you to select which item to display.
View 2 RepliesPeople, I'm not sure if this is the best place to put this question, but here it goes: I want to develop an application in which a sequence of videoclips (of 5 minutes maximun) will be played. Let's call this sequence a 'Playlist'. The Playlist must be played like only one long long video, just like a real TV! And this is the main idea, simulate a television channel. It will not be streaming, the videos will be stored local.
The thing is: media can be added while the playlist is already running. So, if I am at the first movie in playlist of 5 movies, we must be able to change the second one, for example, remove the 5th one (for ex) and add another one at end of the playlist.
Most players doesn't allow me to do that: add media to the current playlist (probably because they load the audio and video files to the memory when you play the playlist).
Briefly what I want is handle the movies in A playlist (I think it is possible with XML) and make sure that it will be FULLSCREEN all the time. So when it changes movies, i won't see this transaction.

This is borrowed code from some developer on Adobe's website. This works great, but the user has to click in the tilelist to play the next video in sequence.
For the application I am developing it is imperetive that the next video gets played as soon as the previous video finished.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.net.URLLoader;

How can I have a video (or youtube video) play on loading my website with the option to "skip". If the skip video is clicked then that will redirect to the index.html however how can I set it up so that when the Video finishes playing it automatically loads the index.html in the website.
(If the video has to be embedded in the index.html so that the rest of the website is elsewhere that's fine too).
Get away from using flashs skin and use my own play and stop buttons progress bar.Be able to use an autoplay within the script and not use the parameters autoplay. using which is working fine. I just want to be able to have more control by being able to write code for the above activities.
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;

I am trying to play some videos from a XML based playlist. I found this, but it's for AS2: Quote:

The instance is named flv and the XML file flv.xml, what would be the correct way to do this in AS3?
I'm doing a project like youtube. After some try, I can run FMS, dynamic playlist and flowplayer (I think this is what I need, am I right?) However, when I try to combine them, I discover a lot of problems. I follow this [URL] beginner_dynstre am_fms.html to learn about FMS, this [URL] to learn about dynamic playlist, this [URL] to learn about flowplayer. In the tutorial, the dynamic playlist cant run with FMS (even the tutorial says can, but when I try it, it cant!), and it is using Flash and as(AS3), the flowplayer is using html and js, I really cont know how to combine these 3 things together.
View 2 RepliesI got a bunch of live stream from FMLE, say: "FMLE_channel1", "FMLE_channel2", "FMLE_channel3". And then on the server side, I created several corresponding republished stream called "channel1", "channel2", "channel3".
On periodical basis, we call Stream.get("channel1").play("FMLE_channel1", -1, 10, true) every 10 seconds. Similar things were done on the second channel & third channel.Soon after the above Stream.get("channel1").play() call, I should get the following events in sequence:info :NetStream.Unpublish.Successinfo :NetStream.Publish.Startinfo :NetStream.Play.Resetinfo :NetStream.Play.Start In the above case all are happy. Clients can view channel1, channel2, channel3 well.But then after a while, one of the three channels, in most case it would be channel1, will not be viewable.
With the server trace info, I found that after the Stream.get("channel1").play() call, only the following two events exists:
info :NetStream.Unpublish.Successinfo :NetStream.Publish.Starti.e. I was missing the play.reset and play.start event.I further checked and confirmed that the FMLE was publishing all three channels fine to the server. I was able to view the "FMLE_channel1" from flash clients, but not the republished "channel1". the version is FMS 3.5.0.

View 1 RepliesI am streaming pre recorded audio files (mp4) to an AIR client. I have tried two different solutions,
streaming the file directly with the NetStream.play("mp4:xxxxx.m4a") and creating a server side playlist, adding the same sound clip and then streaming the playlist. The problem is, when streaming the playlist i get a few NetStream.Play.InsufficientBW, this does not happen when streaming the file direct. Both solutions uses bufferTime=1.0
I would like to use a server side playlist to implement a simple key solution so that the client dont know the full path to the file, but instead sends a key to a custom server side function that looks up the file path and creates a stream for the client.
I am writting an image gallery that loads one intial xml file named galleries.xml.From this point each xml node loads a XMl file for that gallery that holds all the images.The problem arises in the fact that to do this I need a onload function within an onload function.Onload functions dont accept parameters so I can pass down the variable that shows what loop the gallery loop is on as I need that in the function that holds the images.

View 3 RepliesI have an FLV embedded in a ColdFusion page on a client's intranet site. This FLV plays perfectly on the test server. It also plays when the link to the video goes to the test server, rather than the intranet server the page is on. But when I set it up so the page pulls the video from the intranet server itself, the video will start, play for a few seconds, and then freeze. Sometimes (not always) after a minute or so it will play for a few more seconds, but then it will freeze again and that's it.
The file is embedded using FlowPlayer, but I've tried a different player (OSFlvPlayer) with the exact same result - plays on the test server, starts and freezes on the intranet server - so it's not the player. It's obviously the server, but what can I check? The MIME type is correct. Actually we tried it on both video/x-flv and flv-application/octet-stream (I saw the latter on a support site somewhere) and changing the value had no effect.

I am evaluating flex for a mobile and a web application and one of things I want to be able to do is show a google docs or a microsoft docs file (doc,ppt) within a flex application. Google docs files are published as web pages so I guess you need a html component with javascript enabled. Does such a component exist in flex 4+? Similarly how would I go about showing a word or a powerpoint file inside a flex app? How does a site like slideshare or scribd do it?
View 1 RepliesBasically the code below has been designed so that a video starts at 52 seconds (rather than the beginning) when you press play. It works good right now, starts where it's supposed to, but I want to change the code so that it autoplays the video starting at 52 seconds. The problem with this though, is that when I try and set it for autoplay, the video starts at the beginning and doesn't wait for it to load to 52 seconds before it autoplays. Any input on the coding? I need it just so that the autoplay doesn't kick in until the video is loaded to the 52 second point

We have this wicked project requirement to force play a flash video from start to finish upon user login. One possible solution is to autoplay the video and disable the mouse and keyboard while the video is playing. Is there a way to disable the mouse and keyboard in flash? This means you cannot click anything and type anything until the video finishes.
