ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Weblinks To Flv Video (like Hotspots)?
Nov 20, 2009
I need to add 'mouseover' interactivity to an .flv video - here's what i need and what I'm guessing I should do, but don't know how as yet:> I need to add mouse 'hotspots' to items in a video when the items appear. The hotspots would include external weblinks>> My guess is that I could add cuepoints to the flv which dynamically load mc's from the library - the mc's would need to be invisible until mouseover wherein they animate/reveal a list of links.
I want to use an flv, not embed video into the fl, as I need to utilise flv streaming.The mc mouseover would be bog standard stuff, but I just don't know how to call mc's from the library in an flv.

The mc mouseover is bog standard stuff, but I just don't know how to integrate this into an flv - if indeed this is the correct way to go about doing this ..

basically i got this video i need to make interactive, where the user will be able to click on hotspots in a video as it scales -- any possible ideas or directions?
The idea i got is if i know my hotspot is initially at x:700 y:300, and the video scales, i just move it over by that much of a factor -- from what my current resolution was to my new resolution?

mthing similar to this, but am also doing the same kind of project to what I have posted in AS2. The problem is, I cannot get weblinks to open within a movieclip (anything deeper than root) from a dynamic text field fed by xml. The mouse howevers over and turns into a hand as if it's read that it's an <a> tag, but it just doesnt open a new window. And if I put that same code on the main stage at root and the clickable item there, it works. I can't find anything about it anywhere. Here is my code:

how to get hyperlinks that points to a web-page to open new window on the top of the main screen (in FullSceen mode, that works of course if I´m in normal mode). Now if I go to fullscreen mode and click the hyperlink, page opens to new window but that window lies behind the main window. User have to know that and dig it up by using alt+tab etc method...

I have Flash CS4, but the tutorial I used to create this used Action Script 2.0.[URL] This is just a basic mockup of the site, but you can see that the client wants to have images of the pages of their publication that you can browse and have their advertising be clickable so it takes you to Coke's site for example. The example you see there I did in Flash, but I was having trouble making the hotspots be active at the right time -- i.e. right now Morningside market is clickable even when the image is not up, and then it goes away and the hotspots I have on Coke aren't working.
The client also wants to have links to each page by number i.e. Front Cover/1-2/2-3. So I saw that that part would be easy to do in Fireworks, but can't figure out the clickable aspect. Then on the other hand, in Flash, I can't get it all to work either.

I have two hotspots, one partially overlapping the other. The top one is set to listen for MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER. The bottom one is set to listen for MouseEvent.CLICK.Both work correctly in the non-overlapping area and I can get one or the other to work in the overlapping area by changing the order of the layers but I can't figure out how to get a click in the overlapping area to get through to the lower hotspot, the top one always captures the mouse event. I tried playing with the parameters for the 'addEventListener', 'useCapture' and 'priority', with no success.I am now trying to use'getObjectsUnderPoint()' but so far can't figure out how to make that work either.

I'm trying to create a simple photos gallery.I load a new picture into the scene using loadMovie function. X and Y coordinates are custom for each photo so it would be centered nicely. The size of the picture is different too. It means, we have 4 variable distances here (question marks in the graph).Now the hard part.I want to divide a loaded picture into two sides and convert them into two different hotspots. I'll be using these hotspots for prev/next buttons.

I have a video player that plays videos loaded via XML and selected using a combbox. I just got the play and pause buttons to work. What I'm attempting to do now is be able to hit next or previous buttons and select the next or pevious video from the XML file, and update the displayed/selected file in the combobox, my thought was to somehow set the previous/next buttons to directly manipulate the combobox, but nothing I've tried so far has worked.
ActionScript Code:
import fl.data.DataProvider;
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

I have an external text and i want to make some hotspots in this text preferably with actionsscript in flash so the next functions can be added in flash:
when somebody goes over it with the mouse it displays the position and some hover text and when the mouse goes over it or selects/clicks it, thats has to be registert. I think some of these functions can easily be made in flash so thats why flash has to identify the specific word in the text file.
So i have the text: "this is an example text" and i want flash to identify "example" as an hotspot or clickable word, when the mouse goes over it, it should display position and something should remember that the word has been clicked.
Is there any way to set up a variable for this? Or another method to do it?

I'm creating sort of a game in Flash, which requires invisible hotspots changing their position in time, relative to the stage. The question is: can I simply keyframe the hotspot position and have it work, or is there something that I should consider?

create a watermark that fades into my videos 20 or so seconds in, then fades out after another 10 seconds.
Here's what I've done so far in Flash CS4:
- Import Video
- Pointed the "player" to an external URL for the video.
- Selected a generic Skin
The video plays well, all is in order.
Now, to add a watermark to the player. I figured you'd simply import the new animated SWF file, then write some Actions to tell it when to fade in and fade out. Not that I know how to do that at all .
I'd even be up for other options, if this simply won't work I've thought of pushing all my videos through a third-party program to brand the video with an animated watermark, is there such a thing?

I need to add a control bar (play, pause, progress bar) to a SWF video in Dreamweaver. It can be very simple, the look and feel is not that important, it just needs to be functional. The only way I can figure out to add one is to import a FLV file into Dreamweaver instead. The problem with this is that I can't figure out how to export a FLV file directly from Flash CS3, and using a converter program to create a FLV file nullifys the links in the menu at the end of the video. Any help would be great! This seems like it should be really simple to accomplish, but I have been pulling my hair out over it all day now.

I've searcehd but haven't found anything similar. I am trying to add animation to an educational video that I produced. I am new to Flash but already love it - have used for several presentations at work with my higher students and it's been really, really effective so far.
I have done two things: Imported an .flv of the video that I am trying to add animation to but only see the first and last shots in my timeline. How can I add text and tweens throughout the movie using flash? Or can't I?

I created 5 swfs (simple, short animations) The swfs are named "movie1," "movie2," and so on. I want to import all 5 movie clips and thread them together so that they play one after the other inside the timeline of a new Flash Document. I am hoping to have "movie 1" play, stop, have "movie 2" play, stop and so on until the 5th "movie plays then stops (no looping necessary). It will be played on a Mac laptop and not online.
I've been fiddling with timeline actions for 2 days and can't figure how to lead one movie to the other. I've been using Action Script 2 so far. What I've done is create 5 layers (1 for each clip)
"movie1" is on layer 1, frame 1
"movie2" is on layer 2, frame 2
"movie3" is on layer 3, frame 3
"movie4" is on layer 4, frame 4
"movie5" is on layer 5, frame 5

The first one will be on top of the list, the second one will be after the last video as an editor. There won't be any interactivity with those titles, it's just text.
Here's my code :
var thumb_width:Number;
var thumb_height:Number;

With some great tutorials on the web, I have created an interactive cube in PV3d with a movieAssetMaterial for one the faces. I would like to add a fully functional video player to this face. I have code for an AS3 video player that I placed in the main fla on the movie clip that acts as the material. The video streams in fine, but the interface does not work. I'm wondering if this is a scope issue, a problem with adding events to a movie asset material, or some other problem. The video player code is attached. I have the video player code inside the movieAssetMaterial.

I've created a video in Premiere Pro, and I'd like to add hyperlinks to a couple of words that I added as Titles in Premiere Pro (I'm asking on this forum because I saw a similar question referred this way).In order to add functional hyperlinks, I created a couple of swfs in the Flash CS4 IDE which would serve as invisible buttons (though used movieclips) that link to the respective websites via NavigateToURL. After checking to make sure things were working with the swfs, I dragged them into my premiere pro project panel and added them to the timeline to coincide with when I needed the links to be available.I then exported the flv from Premiere Pro with Adobe Media encoder.
The flash site I'm building uses the Gaia framework, so I added the flv file as an asset to one of my Gaia pages, and everything loads up normally - the video plays and I can see the highlighted areas I'd created to serve as clickable links. The links within the video, however, don't work, and I wasn't sure if this was a Gaia issue or if there's some other step (or steps) I need to take to make this work.(If there's a different way to get working, clickable links into a Premiere Pro video, I'm open to that as well).

I am relatively new to Flash CS3. I need to create a video file add a skin and put a voice over or background music. I have done all of it but I have a problem with the skin. On the skin there is a volume button for the video. How can I mute or control the volume of the video? Just like in youtube for example. You can turn it up or down. What is the code for it? Because when I click on the button to mute ir or turn it down it doesn't do anything to the volume. I had a separate video and a song but I went to Windows Movie Maker and associated the song with the video so now it is a whole: video with a song. So basically I just want to know what I need to do in order to control the volume of the video.

I've got an application (video player) that has many different interactive pieces spread throughout a handful of different classes throughout the display tree hierarchy (all children/grandchildren/great-grandchildren/etc of the same View class). I'm trying to add a universal tooltip to use throughout [URL].
Basically, the primary problems I want to solve are:
-Ideally called from or channels through a single place (for ease of updating etc).Must show above all other display objects (for instance, a tooltip that shows for a player controls button shouldn't be obscured by a menu display object that might be above it).
-Add the object once in a container/holder that's added above all the other View objects.Dispatch a custom event for every ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT event that needs to show/hide the tool tip.In my main (logic) class, listen for the event, and then call the method in the view class that shows/hides the tooltip.

I have a video player that doesn't have "seek from unloaded time" functionality. I want to add it now. I simply load video like this;
stream.play("vidurl.flv");
(pseudo streaming)
Server side is ready. I can call videos like videourl.flv?start=xxx but cant play them in player cuz video comes without metadata
To sum up:
1. stream.play("vidurl.flv"); works, video plays
2. user clicks to seek bar. on unloaded part. I get the position and convert it to seconds
stream.play("vidurl.flv?start=10");
Doesn't work! No metadata what I should do after?
