ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Reusable Video Player
Feb 11, 2011
So Im developping a video player that I can reuse in my projects.
The video player contains both .as files and graphical assets (buttons, loading bar, etc). And the graphical assets need to be styled for each project.
Right now the approach Im thinking of is having a base videoplayer.fla, and importing the library items into my new fla, and modifying the graphical assets manually there.
The other option Im thinking of is compiling a swc, but afaik the styling would become more complicated and more limited to colors, fonts, and such.

I have been working on creating a package of reusable code for myself. I frequently create projects that have a set of panels, which I re-skin for each particular project, and each panel has its own body of functionality.There are about 10 different panels that could be used in a given project, but not each panel is used in every project. Some projects use 5, some use 8, some 10 etc. My problem is that when migrating the panels to a new project, I don't nessicarily want to have every single panel in the library with appropriate exports etc. if it's not going to be used in the project.
For example
PHP Code:
package panelPack {public class Main extends MovieClip{public function Main(){}public function activatePanel1():void{var panel1:Panel1 = new Panel1();}public function activatePanel2():void{var panel1:Panel1 = new Panel2();}public function acti
[code]...
Then I have something like a config class that would have code like this:
PHP Code:
activatePanel1();activatePanel3();activatePanel5();
Then each class is something like this, referencing a library item that is exported:
PHP Code:
package panelPack {public class Panel1 extends Panel{public function Panel1(){var closeButton:SimpleButton = this.closeB;var submitButton:SiimpleButton = this.submitB;..........}}}
I don't have to have panel1, panel2.....panel10 in the library if i'm only activating 1, 3, and 5!If i don't have those items in the library i get all kinds of undefined properties buttons etc. Everything that in the MC that gets exported.

I'm creating something like a video player with annotation functionality. I can load up the notes, with times at which they were made by people (as strings), and put these into an array to be utilized. I also know the current time of the flv video as it's playing.
So each note has a time attached to it, but how can I use these as triggers that fire dynamically in relation to the video's duration?

I am creating a video player that sets up a preview image before it begins to play. If I set the preview image in a loader within a container it works, except if I change the size of the preview.jpeg that is being loaded into it. It loads the image into the loader, within the container, but then scales the container making the image smaller than I need. I want it so that the preview.jpeg can be made by anyone at any size and the image be scaled to sit over the video. Unless the vidWidth and vidHeight are equal to the preview.jpg the image doesnt show up, just blank ??
Code:
var vidWidth:Number = 300;
var vidHeight:Number = 240;
var preview_Loader:Loader = new Loader();
var preview_URL:String = "preview.jpeg";
var preview_Request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(preview_URL);
[Code] .....
returns: ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
This only happens when I try to set the index of the preview_Loader? I need it to be the second mc from the bottom. I set up 2 functions to load the image. The first doesn't allow smaller images to be loaded into the container and make them the correct size. While the second makes them dissapear if I change the size.

I've just been asked to create a video player which automatically chooses the correct bitrate video to stream by detecting the bandwidth.I have no experience creating a video player so I'm looking for links/resources to do some research on the topic.Has anyone here created a video player in Flash? Would it be better to create in Flash or Flex?Once again, I have no prior knowledge in this type of creation and could use an experienced developer's opinion on what the first step is towards progress.

I have a website [URL] when I go there if I click the video archives button then play a video then click on the home or photos button or one of the alternate background buttons on the left the video goes away as it should but not always the audio (especially when I click while the video is still buffering). Is there a command I can use to kill the sound from the flvPlayback component and nothing else(I have a mp3 player there also I so I don't want to use the SoundMatrix class. btw the videos are all played on an instance of the flvPlayback component.

I built a timeline based player with 2 menus and many videos that you can play.The buttons move the timeline to a frame label and the video plays. The back button has a stop function built in it so the video stops playing when its hit.It plays wonderfully locally but once on a server after a few clicks it boggs down and sometimes the audio from the last video remains playing even when prompted to stop. I was pointed to use the add and remove child functions to prevent this but being very new to Flash and 100% self taught i have zero idea on how to do this. The link to the player is[url]....Even if its a link to a tutorial or something.

With the Flash Player that comes with CS3 and on my PC XP Pro laptop.I want the player controls to appear at the _bottom_ of the video not on top of the video and not under (behind) the video.
- my video is 640 x 480
- so I modified the "properties" tab at the bottom of the screen to 640x480... (it was 550x400)
- but that just makes everything larger when I click File > Publish
- and then look at the video in Internet Explorer... the Player Controls are still _On Top_ of the video.
I guess I need to learn how to
- Make the stage bigger
- Position the Player controls below the actual video

I'm developing a video player for Pure IP multicast video. I'm using the Multicast Configurator provided with FMS 4 for generating the configuration. This is the manifest file generated:
<manifest xmlns="[URL]">
<id>Multicast_IP_Multicast</id>
<streamType>live</streamType>
<duration>0</duration>
[Code] .....
That's not working. And I have several doubts about it:
1.- It's not working, and I don't know where is the error. I'm not sure what I should add as parameter in GroupSpecifier constructor? GroupSpecs from manifest file?? "com.adobe.pureIPMulticastGroup"??
2.- I've been watching the multicast.as application in FMS4. The only way of publishing multicast streams in FMS4 is using the configurarion from Multicast Config Tool? Is it possible publishing a stream without the GroupsSpec generated by the Config Tool?
3.- If It's mandatory using the config tools for managinf the pure ip multicast. I would like to integrate the Multicast Config Tool in my platform. Is there any place where I could get the code of Multicast Config Tool? Any documentation about how to build it? This component have any flashvars or callbacks that could allow me integrate it in my platform?

We have developed flash video player which needs to playe large videos (at least 500 MB videos).We have some issues in the player right now.I am playing a 100 MB + video, it start playing and say it is buffering upto 50% of that video. Then I am closing that page. If I take that video again, it starts downloading from beginning. It never resume downloading from where it buffered previous time. But for small video files, this is looking ok. Is there any size limit a video player can buffer?Is there any better way to play large videos (more than 500 MB). Any other protocol or any other settings in flash player?

I have an AS3 video player I've put together using fairly standard Netstream method and it plays my flv's fine. The problem is, the sound quality varies wildly depending on who is looking at it. When I test locally, the audio in the video is fine, but on a windows machine it goes horrifically loud to the point of distortion, also the client (outside the UK) has said it sounds fine to them, so It appears to be only happening here.

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);

We have an ordinary video player built for Adobe Flash Player that streams a video file and plays it on a browser.However some of the video files aren't clear enough that we need additional video filters like sharpness filter while the others may require contrast filter or hue and tint filter due to its color balance.
The question is, is there any feature that are provided by Flash Player's core video component to apply those kind of filters on the fly at client-side?

I pose this question to you. I have created a video player that functions off of the Video Class, netConnection and NetStream and up until this very moment works 100% as it should.The hang up I'm getting is that I have a onMetaData function that checks ALL of the flv's or f4v's metadata as it is loaded into the player, so i can use it to control some other elements of the player. Here is the code I am using:
Code:
my_ns.onMetaData = function (md:Object) {
for (propName:String in md){;
[code].....
