I would like to import a youtube video to Macromedia Flash CS4.
I follow the steps: File-> Import-> Import Video and put the URL and press Next, but Macromedia doesn't accept it.
It appears the following message: "NetStream.Play.FileStructureInvalid: Adobe Flash cannot import files that have invalid file structures."
What could I do? Am I obligated to download it to .flv file and upload it to another server?
I'm now working on a flash website, i need to play a youtube video inside my flash movie. In this Flash file i have a FLVPlayback component and i tried to link the youtube video into this but did'nt work.

View 3 Repliesby following a tutorial on [URL], I was able to display a youtube video in flash, but the problem is that the video doesn't have a control menu. Just wondering if there is a way to make one, either it is customized or some default menu provided by youtube or flash.
View 0 RepliesIn my CS4 flash document I have created a media gallery. It's a very simple interface that has mouse overs on thumbnail pictures, and then the larger picture will fadeUP in the center of the document. (With use of framelabels in the timeline).
In the same document, I want the user to be able to click on a video thumbnail, and that video plays back in the center of the document. Several questions: If the user clicks on the thumbnail "onrelease," the time line goes to the player, is it possible to stream this video from a youtube clip into my media player on the screen? If not and I have the document in a fl4 format, is there a simple process to have this video open? (I currently do not have the document in fl4 format).
I was making a player which calls videos from youtube and displays it in my flash playback component. The script loads the videos fine but when i want the flash to load the same video ID from an external XML data source, it loads the youtube player API but not the video. Here is the code
Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com");
Security.allowDomain("*");
var my_player:Object;
var my_loader:Loader = new Loader();
my_loader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
[Code] .....
This script loads the video from youtube.com with an specific ID which i have defined at
my_player.cueVideoById("53OyPYa7SEI",0)
Later I defined and XML file called "videos.xml" where I passed the youtube link and tried to call the video from that xml file in flash. But the problem comes there. Here is the xml code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<videos>
<VIDEO url="[URL]" id=1/>
<VIDEO url="[URL]" id=2/>
</videos>
How to call the video from an XML file?
I'm a little amazed. What the heck do I need?
View 2 RepliesIn the cosmicpanda update for youtube, you can go from a video page to the video creators profile page while your video is still playing in flash. Does anyone how Youtube accomplishes this? I would like to know if it's possible to keep the flash state of a site constant while moving from page to page on a site.It doesn't seem as if the flash is reloading, so I don't think that they are just saving cookies for the current video time and starting the video at that point when they refresh.I would assume that they're using ajax, but the application of this feature is really clean. The URL gets correctly changed to the users' profile page's URL. The back button still works as it should. (I can press back and forward between video page and user profile page and the video continues going clean and never drops.)

i have a site and in the home page i have an embedded youtube video, the div that is containing the player is initially hidden (display:none),so, when a button(video) is clicked, i hide the content of the page and show the youtube player, all works ok, but i would love that when the button(video) is clicked, the player shows up and start to reproduce the video automatically, but i've faild in each attempt, i'm using a code that i find in other web and made some changes
swfobject.addLoadEvent( ytplayer_render_player );
function ytplayer_render_player( )
{[code]....
i've post the entire code i'm using, so, how can i make autoplay here,
src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R5zKIOTvfwQ?version=3"
and
src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R5zKIOTvfwQ"
How can I get the video ID alone from this src?
Is there any predefined option available for that?

I'm using Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3.0.
what is wrong to this code?
header('Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash');
$video_id = $_REQUEST['id'];
$content = readfile("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=$video_id");
echo $content;
Why this code is not working? How should look the code? i've edited like this:
header('Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash');
$video_id = $_REQUEST['id'];
$content = readfile("http://www.youtube.com/v/$video_id");
echo $content;
and if i get http:[url]...in browser it works but if i add it in jwplayer it doesn't work?
I want to show a div over a YouTube video but can't get it to work. I know that if you set the wmode to transparent or opaque it should work, but I've only seen this work when the <embed> or <object> tag is used. YouTube now embeds the video in an <iframe> so when I tried it, it didn't work.
Here's what my code looks like.

I am trying to embed youtube video in flash. It gets embedded and but the swf gets dead slow after a few seconds. here is my code.[URL]..Also when I jump to anyother frame of the swf file its dont stops and the audio is played continuously.
And I get a lot of security sandbox violation errors as well.
when trying to embed a youtube video into a flash project I'm working on.The problem I'm receiving is that every time I test the movie, I navigate to the frame where the video player is to appear and I get this error thrown at me from the output box:
Error opening URL - (Youtube's API URL - can't post links yet)SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
I changed the security settings and set the swf file to allow access to the internet but this has made no change.

I cannot load more than one of those in my app. As soon as I load one youtube vid like that, any others will fail to load UNLESS it was the same video as the first one loaded, in which case there seems to be a 50% chance that it will load. And even when the second one (the same as the first) does load, there are issues with the player loaded.... it seems they are connected somehow and get confused with each other. The trackbar will flicker between the play time of the first one and the play time of the second one.
Next problem... I cannot unload the video right away. Say my user wants to close the video out, when I use:
Code:
ldr.unload()
the player does NOT close its streams and you can hear the audio still playing (assuming it was closed before it was finished playing)...
In my eyes, this is horribly bad programming on YouTube's part. They claim that you are allowed to embed their videos in AS3.0, but if that's true then why does it have such a horrible time as a child SWF? Proper children SWF files should be listening for an "unload" call and close out anything they need to when unloaded.
Here is what I've tried so far:
- Seperating the videos by loading them into other children SWF files (children that I created that I've told to load a specific YouTube vid)
- loading at different times
- Allowing security access from YouTube
How can I load more than one YouTube video into my Flash App without causing problems between them? I'm at my wit's end.
hide the video content of the YouTube player (only statusbar (where is play button etc.) is visible) ? Or maybe do you know other (flash) players that have the ability to stream the YouTube movies ?

When I remove the current video using player.destroy(); and stage.removeChild(), the video goes away. But when the newly loaded video beginning, the sound track from the previous video plays in the background.
