I want to know if is possible to stop the streaming background download of a youtube video.
I add the video in this mode [code]...
i noted that once i removed the video from my project, the streaming download of the video continue in background... I realize that because next time that i re-add the video into mastermc, download go slowly than the first time.
Then is possible to interrupt the streaming download?
I'm trying to decide whether, for my particular application, I would be better off delivering video via streaming or progressive download. Here's the situation: Background: this will be a learning drill for learning foreign language phrases. There will be a series of ten short video clips, each one a headshot of a native speaker, saying a single sentence. The background is static so the only thing changing will be facial expressions, so compression should be pretty effective. Each clip will be approximately 4-6 seconds total length. Resolution will be approximately 360 X 270.
The way this particular drill works makes me wonder if perhaps progressive downloading might make more sense than streaming. But like I said, I'm not a Flash developer, so I could easily be wrong. (Did I mention we're currently looking for a talented, reliable Flash developer?) So here's how it will work: Drill will load up showing written text of instructions, along with audio of the narrator reading the instructions aloud. Approximate length of the audio instructions will be 15 seconds. (I"m thinking progressive download could begin during the reading of the instructions.)
After the instructions have been read, the intructional text goes away and is replaced with (from top to bottom) the text for the first sentence, the video box with a static image of the first frame, a "Begin" button. When the user clicks the "Begin" button, the video begins to play, and the "Begin" button transforms into a "Repeat" button, which is inactive while the video plays. When the video ends, the "Repeat" button becomes active. Clicking the "Repeat Button" causes the same video clip to play a second time (again, the "Repeat" button is inactive while video plays.
I've developed a video player using NetConnection/NetStream that works fine, in as2 and also in as3. The peculiarity of my player is that read an xml file (editable by a cms) that sets if needed some "cuepoints". In the stream version it's not possible to inject ascuepoints in the video file, so i read the xml and with a listener i set a menu that sets the seek point of the video. Also the user when watch video sets an exit point by closing it. From the second time the user lands on the player, my code put the seek point in the last position seen.
I've seen youtube player and I know that youtube uses progressive download. It's awesome to know that because you can jump from one position to another like a streaming service. It seems an hybrid version with the capabilities of the streaming and the band saving of the progressive download. There's something that i can't imagine..
If I have a playing video and I click on the next button for example, what do I need to do exactly?(this question also applies when currently playing video comes to an end and the next video comes in order)if I say:
Code:
netStream.close();
and then:
Code:
netConnection = new NetConnection();
netConnection.connect(null);
netStream = new NetStream(netConnection);

View 5 RepliesI am streaming flash video and the dimension of the video is 1280 by 720 (same size as the stage)
but just before the video streams, there is a quick flash of the video (about 320px by 240px) at the top corner of the stage, and then it plays the videos at the correct size (which is 1280 by 720) .... a quick flash is the best way I can explain it.
This is my code:
function clicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
var video:Video = new Video();
addChild(video);
[Code]....
is there anyway I can stop that quick flash of the video .... so when I click on the button, it just plays the video, at the correct size?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a flash movie and have it find a external movie to show. I also need to be able to change the location of the video without flash, so I think I have to use a seperate .as file.

I need a flash video player for our public site where users will share videos.The video usage model is similar to youtube as far as video part is concerned.Users will upload and share videos. Users will browse and play all shared videos as well.The videos will be streamed from the server and our app is a .NET/C#/JQuery application.We have 3 options:
1) Either buy a commercial flash player
2) Customize a open source player or use free player and customize its gui
3) Develop our own (time consuming and last resort)
I am required to find a flash video player with these requirements:
Player should work in all major browsers (IE, FF, Chrome, Safari)
Player should have way to inject Advertisement clips when playing a video file
Light weight and easy to integrate
Must support streaming and scale
Plus all other basic features of a flash video player.

View 2 RepliesThe simplified code:
//triggered on MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN
private function beginDrag(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, drag);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, endDrag);
stage.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, endDrag);
[Code] .....
I am using some click-and-drag techniques within my flash code, and I've noticed some loopholes with the MOUSE_UP event:
-It wont be triggered if a context menu is activated while the mouse is still held down.
-It wont be triggered if the window is deactivated (alt+tab or similar)
What other events can possibly interrupt the MOUSE_UP event and lead to unexpected behavior? Additionally is there a way to generically catch ContextMenuEvent.MENU_SELECT for all context menus without having to manually add/remove the listeners to each context menu?
I'm just curious about the implementation of timers as flash is single threaded.If a timer event should fire, does it interrupt the current executing code, fire the event and then go back, or does it do something else?
View 1 Repliesnew to AS3 and starting with an ambitious project for my father in law's website. I don't want anyone to write the code for me, but I was hoping to explain what I'm trying to do and have some more experienced coders drop some keywords, pointers on how they would code it.I want to have a movie clip of a gunsight/scope thingy moving around a map, pausing once in a while. When it pauses, some text will come up that says "Searching...Found" and then a picture of a car will appear for a couple seconds.Now, I can animate all this in the timeline easily. But, here's where I'm getting held up: Across the top of the map, there will be a menu. On each button, when you hover over it, I want the gunsight to stop what it's doing, move to the center of the map and expand to show a picture that is related to the specific menu button. When the mouse rolls off, the animation reverses and the gunsight returns to the original looping animation (either starting over at the beginning or returning to where it was before the roll over).Is this going to be really complicated? Do I need to code the original looping animation to for actionscript to pull the gunsight from where ever it is on the map and smoothly move it to the center, or is there a way to pull it away from it's current location?
View 4 RepliesI've been working on a flash project which needs to load external images for a web.The web will need to display an image one at a time, and so if i click on a thumbnail, an image will start to load. If the user decides to click on another thumbnail to open another images, it must interrupt or pause the loading, so another loader can load the new image, so the previous image is not displayed.The problem is, when i tried to interrupt the loader, the first loader didn't stop loading the image, instead it loads the image together with the second preloader.I've tried using loader. close(), but it does not stop the loading.Also tried using loader.unloadAndStop(), but in my understanding is that loader wont unload its content BEFORE it completes loading.Is there any other way to stop the loader from completing and replace it with the new loading process?

View 1 RepliesAlmost every flash player has an option to display how much of buffer (or % of total video) is downloaded to the client. At the moment I don't see it in any implementation of html5 video player.
The real problem I am trying to solve is to have a way of knowing % of downloaded asset (image/swf/video whatever). In flash its easy by using MovieClipLoader and bytesLoaded property.
Is there any way of doing it in HTML/HTML5/Javascript (without relying on Flash) ?
