ActionScript 2.0 :: Use Cue Points With FLVplayback Component?
Sep 12, 2009I need to use cue points in an FLVplayback component to load other movies. I've looked at several tuts, but most are for navigation.

View 1 RepliesI've got several flv's with a bunch of embedded cue points. I'm streaming these flvs from an FMS simultaneously and switching between them on the fly via a combobox. I'm trying to add some movieclips to the stage that represent the cue points so that when you switch to a new flv a new set of cue point markers will be generated for that clip. My problem is that I cannot find a way to get a list (or array) of the embedded cue points using the flvplayback component.I've seen a way to do this using Netstream.onMetaData but i'd prefer to use the flvplayback. Here's my code:
Code:
import fl.video.*;
import fl.video.MetadataEvent;
[code].....
I have been looking all over for a solution, and I find a lot of posts that ask the question, but sadly no answers.
I am using an flv (videoClip) with embedded event cue points. These cue points bring on bullet points based on where the video is in the playback. Sadly when I use the seekbar the bullets will stay on until the next cue point is reached. I think I am getting close, but am hoping someone can help me finish it out!

I was wondering if there was a way to get the sound from a FLVPlayback component and manipulate it with using a custom volume slider? Within my Actionscript I currently have this code which enables me to control the volume of a MP3:
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
var mysong = new music();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var myTransform = new SoundTransform();
myChannel = mysong.play(0,10);
[Code]...
But Instead of using the MP3 for sound, is there a way to use an FLV's sound instead?
Is it possible to insert cue points into a video on the fly ala the addASCuePoint() method in the FLVPlayback component?
View 7 RepliesI have a quick question regarding cue points. I am creating a file (flash CS3 using AS2) that includes an FLV video with cue points. The video is an FLVPlayback component (vs. a video object), and the cue points have been embedded in the FLV using the Flash Video Encoder. The video is a simple video capture of a person presenting a slide show. The video does not include the slides that this person is presenting. When the video plays and the cue points are reached, I have set slides (not part of the video, just separate elements on the stage) to appear on the stage, and change as each cue point is reached. The slides display at the appropriate point in the presentation, and this seems to work well.
The issue comes in with the scrubber. I am using the SeekBar component to show progress through the video and to allow the end user to scrub through the video, if they wish. However, when they scrub, the slides do not change. Meaning, if the user moves the scrubber forward or backward, the slide does not change to match the new location of the playhead, so the slides are out of synch with the presenter in the video. Is there a way to "read" the current cue point, based on the location of the playhead, so that the appropriate slides display at the proper scrubbed time in the movie?
I know nothing about flash but this is what I am doind with CS5 Adobe Flash Professional:1. Import video. I type in the server location of my .mp4 file.Now when I save it and embed on a webpage it loads and works perfect, however it is not looping. So my question is in adobe flash professional what do I need to exactly?
View 1 RepliesIm using the FLVplayback component for a project im doing. I want to add the time elapsed and time left on the controls. I dont really want to create my own controls, as im happy with the flv playback component. The FLVs playing in the component are external and are loaded into it via as3
View 13 RepliesWith autoHide set to true would like to have the skin show when a video is loaded then fade away after a couple of seconds.
View 3 RepliesI have tried numerous things but when I insert the FLVplayback Component into flash that is linked to an external video source the fullscreen function will not work but the video plays as needed.
View 15 RepliesI am working on AS3 project using Flash CS3. I have to display some videos using FLVPlayBack component. I am using the same component instance to display videos but when a new video is loaded the max duration property does not updates and hence the onComplete event is never fired. I somehow wanted to refresh the component when a new video is to be played.

View 1 RepliesWhat are steps to do unload a flv file after clearing necessary memory used for its loading and also to remove the FLVPlayback component.his is the code i have used for creating FLVPlayback component and setting its source.

Publish to Flash 8 and using the FLVPlayback component as part of a larger elearning course.We have a legacy pause button that works by recursively looking through every item on stage and if the item is a movieclip following its children and so on. Something like this (there is more to the whole thing, but this is where the problem is):
findCurrent = function (obj){ // RECURSIVE SEARCH FOR MOVIECLIPS for (var i in obj) { if (typeof (obj[i]) == "movieclip" && obj[i] != obj) { if (obj[i]._name == "pauser"{
continue; } var m = obj[i]; m.frameWas = m._currentFrame; isCurrent.push(m); findCurrent(m); } }};
The issue is that when using the FLVPlayback component the 256 recursions limit is reached. I'm guessing that the video part contains a reference to playback controls skin and the playback controls skin contains a reference to the video part and the recursion just goes round and round till it hits the limit and then all actionscript is disabled for the rest of the file.
I thought of adding a counter, and that is probabaly a good idea, but I was wondering if there is anyway to identify that I've hit a video player and stop following it?
Obviously the topeof(myVideoPlayer) is coming back as "movieclip" or I wouldn't be getting this problem. I don't think there is a getQualifiedName for AS2, right? I looked at the properties and couldn't find one that said, "clearlyVideoPlayer."
I'm using the FLVPlayback component to play a movie. In the parameters, I'm setting volume to "8" where the default is "1".This works great and gives me the right volume setting, but if the user touches the volume slider (which I'd like to keep), the new maximum volume is only one.
View 2 RepliesI have an array of videos coming from an XML doc. I am getting the name of my video in the trace statement okay, but am not sure how to go about loading the FLV video into the player.I have an FLVPlayback component on the interface named "video". The video I'm going to load will be ("videos/" + videoArray[0]))

Video won't play from XML
I have been trying to pull a single random video (.flv) from an XML list to play it using the FLVPlayback component. I managed to get the description from the <desc> tag and the title <vidtitle> tag in the xml file but can't get the flv to play in the player.
I dragged a FLVPlayback component onto the stage and gave it an instance name of "display" but I still cannot get it to work. I get no errors when hitting "control + enter" the video never loads. My code is below.

I'm working with an FLVPlayback component in Flash CS4 and I'm trying to target the seek bar handle, which according to what I've read so far, is created at runtime and it's assigned an instance name of handle_mc.I've tried targeting that, but with no success. After researching for most of my day and trying several different methods, I have no idea what else to do to have access to that handle and change its alpha property
View 1 RepliesI did a search, but couldn't find my issue, which was rather surprising. I have an actionscript 3.0 component (flvplayback) and I want to simply change the highlight color from the default green color. You used to be able to do this by a style manger "halo" color or something I don't remember exactly (AS 2.0), but this doesn't work w/ 3.0 components. I thought I could double click on the component in the library, but I can't seem to change the style that way either. I have also tried to place individual items on the stage, like the play button and change the styles there, but it doesn't inherit the changes to the flvplayback component.
View 2 Repliesi have set up a flvplayback instance and when a button is clicked i want it to load in and play a new flv
i have the following code:
// Add FLVPlayback Class (required for Playing flv's)import fl.video.*;// Create a new FLVPlayback object to hold the video var myVideo:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();// set the width of the videomyVideo.width = 544;//set the video's widthmyVideo.height = 304;//set the video's heightmyVideo.x = 200;//set the video's horizontal positionmyVideo.y = 88;//set the video's vertical position// set the video source to the current video stored in the variable myFlvmyVideo.source = myFlv;// put the video on the stageaddChild(myVideo);
all this works fine and the first flv loads and plays fine no problems

I know how to use netstream but unless there is a way to use skins with it its not the way i want to go.
I have a couple of lessons that I have created in Flash CS3 for Flash Player 9 with AS3.In the main timeline of the lessons I have an flvplayback component setup to connect to our instance of Akamai's flash ondemand application to stream down several videos.
I have a customer who is behind a client side proxy server that is having an issue where the first 10-15 seconds of the any video plays then the video drops out and it appears that the flash player attempts to make a connection on another port which causes multiple audio streams to play but the video never comes back.From the network sniffer read out that their IT send me it appears that the flash player initially attempts to get out on port 80 then attempts port 1935 then attempts 443. if there is anyway to stop the flvplayback component from attempting multiple connections?
I created a stripped out application that just has a flvplayback component in it and when the end user opens that one it streams the video fine. I can only assume that my lessons which are using scorm and webservices to make database updates are reaching some bandwidth limit that the end users proxy doesn't like.
my flvplayback component is not working when i tried to pass the url of the video to be played from js to the actionscript.(using actionscript 2)
I properly embedded the swf and added the object ids as well. i just assigned the url to a string and then passed it to the function in the as but it's not working...
The problem is that f4v files that are not playing progressively. they fully download before starting to play.Here's the code (newly modified without success) for a simple module that plays 3 different f4v's on radio buttons. In theory they should stream progressively in a flvplayback instance called qualtestplayer when a radio button is pushed. [code]...

Is it possible when publishing a Flash CS4 file to have the Video swf and the Skin swf be in one swf file? I have a Flash CS4 (AS2) file that has a FLVPlayback Component. When I publish or test movie 2 swfs are output. I need only 1 swf as I am then going to insert this 1 swf into a Captivate 4 project. When I insert the video swf by itself into Captivate 4, I do not have a play bar/skin. If it is not possible to publish as one swf, how I can insert the 2 swfs into a Captivate file and get them to work?
