Example: Total length - 1minute.
loaded length - 30second.
Then How can I get this loaded length?
I am not talking about the total duration of video. and I am using web hosting server not RTMP server.

View 1 RepliesI have a FLV player using netstream. I am using metaData to grab the video duration and time. It will grab the total duration time, but I want it to countdown to zero, like iTunes. Basically, the time will play and the duration will countdown to zero at the end of the video. I thought that I could take (duration) - (time played) but it's not working.

View 1 RepliesI need this to work so that on my stage i can have a dynamic text box displaying the current time of the flv and the total time ---- example 3:45 / 6:58 where the 3:45 would update as the flv was scrubbed or played, or whenever a jump point was pressed. I found an example of this on this page.I have been using the as3 code to import my video and use cue points and for the life of me I cant get this to work.

In the following code The Photo, Fade, Rotate and Squeeze Transition effects work none of the others work. I think the transition is actually processed as the image isn't rendered till the duration time is up. I've tested all the commented out examples none work.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to modify an mp3 player to work on my site, and I can't seem to get it to display time elapsed and total duration. I've included the .fla file below so you can see it (keep in mind that the mp3 file it loads, and the title are both passed to it through the link, i.e. "mp3player.html?audlink=test.mp3&audtitle=This+Is+The+Title").

Is there any possibility to make a movieclip visible for a specific time (e.g. 5sec.)? I want to make "srch275" show for 5 seconds and then make it disapear.
sruch_btn.onRelease = function () {if (cosearchbx.text == "APPLE"){srch275._visible = true;}
I have created an animation in Flash which is 2mins long at 25fps, so 3000 in frame length. However when I export it as either a swf or a mov it plays for 6mins! The frame rate is definetely 25fps in Quicktime export settings also but still it doesn't play for the correct duration? The Quicktime movie says 6mins also desptire the fps matching.
The movie is a standard timeline animation?
How to get video duration in as3 ?
View 6 RepliesI was wondering if it is possible to get the duration of an MP4 video. I am attempting to make a scrubber bar for my video player following Lee's tutorial however in the video he uses an FLV with metadata. Is there any way to produce the same effect with an MP4?
View 3 Repliesresources for building (or skinning) your own video player aren't nearly as easy to find as I thought they should be, and these tutorials are fantastic. The only things missing, that how to achieve, are (a) the video counting in 0:00 as it plays, and also being able to list the duration - so display something like: 0:00 / 5:47

On Linux, YouTube places temporary flash files in /tmp. Nautilus can display the duration (Minutes:Seconds) of them, but I haven't found a way to extract the duration using python.'
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a video player in an environment where stream.bytesTotal isn't available. I need to use the duration metadata encoded in flv files to extrapolate for things such as the play progress, and the time display.
The problem is when loading an flv the metadata, including the duration, fails to be accessed 2 out of 3 times. Here is the function that iterates through the metadata object

I have a video player and I want to read the duration counter so that after say 5 seconds the video fades in some movie clips pauses for a few seconds then fades the movieclips out. Heres what I have so far as a test I have used gotoand play . If I insert this the movie does not reach 5 seconds but goes to frame 8 straight away. If I try a < or == nothing happens ?
// Get video duration
ns.onMetaData = function(obj) {
duration = obj["duration"];
var minutes2:Number = Math.round(duration/60);
var seconds2 = Math.round(duration%60);

I have over 1200 videos in our catalog that were somehow transcoded with a missing duration, assigning it a value of 0 - the data rate is also 0. How do I determine the video duration by another means, with just the .flv file as a resource.
View 0 Repliesis it possible to make the duration of a movieclip equal the duration of the preloader, i mean is it possible to make something like, the time the preloader needs to reach the 100% = the duration of the movieclip? i'm using AS 3.0 and flash CS4 just in case it helps here is my code for the loader:
Code:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
function loadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
var percentLoaded:Number = event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal;

I've loaded a video into the FLVPlayback component and I'm looking for a way to get the total time and the time played so far and output them to two text fields so the end result would look something like "00:12/00:50".
Right now I'm defining the video by the components inspector but I'm eventually hoping to define this bit by actionscript as well.
the player uses a VideoDisplay and i set the source like videoDisplay.source = "sourceStringURL"
and the vid doesn't play until it's fully loaded
I have loaded an external video with playback component in Flash CS4.
Now the question is do I need to add streaming script or not?
Flash media server 3.5 to stream live video to a webpage with flex GUI embedded in it.For this I have used Adobe flash media server start screen .I could able to stream video correctly.I want to know how long it could be do like this.ie suppose I have to stream like this for 3 or 6 months
View 2 RepliesI know with a standard Flash FLV player you can get the pcent loaded of an flv. But can you know up to what time is currently loaded? I have a chapter selection drop down and would like to figure out when chapters are available to jump to.
View 1 RepliesI am loading external swf files into my main file to move between different contents.It all works fine with most of the files except with some.The files that work fine have pictures in different frames in the timeline and the navigation buttons within this swf move between this frames to display a very simple slideshow.The files that don't work, I only made one frame, I've made sure it stops there and then I'm only changing the visibility property of the images to view the different pictures.
This files load fine the first time but if I come out of them and come back, they don't seem to load properly the second time.I have tried making sure that the mc_container in the main movie is unloaded each time before loading a new one into it, but that didn't seem to make any difference.the files that don't work are:
Producing / Carnesky's Ghost train
Solo / Film
Solo / Rupture
Artist Collaborations / The Giant Accordion
I'am looking for a flv/video player which allow to seek for not loaded part of the video,just like on youtube.
View 1 RepliesI want to communicate with an object within a loaded swf. I know I can use this event listener and function to do so right when the swf has completed loading:
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadSections)
function loadSections(event:Event):void { event.target.content.mc.y+=2
}
But I want to be able to manipulate a given object from the loaded swf at any time not just when the loading is complete. So basically as long as the swf is loaded, is there a way to manipulate objects and call functions within that swf?
Both the external and host swf are AS3.
i read this tutorial, it is about how to control the time line of the loaded swf

i have a mc with instance name "preload" on the first frame of the main timeline, with a movie clip instace "numbers" inside that, which contains 100 frames, with text 1-100, masking a gradiant. on the preload mc i have the following code:
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var bytes = _root.getBytesTotal();[code].....
which goes to the 2nd frame once loaded marvelously... but it just stays at 1% the whole time until loaded... i keep tweaking it but no improvement.
URL...Basically, you press button to enter and the tape measure will roll in time with the amount of data/frames loaded. So if 50% of data/frames loaded, the animation would be halfway completed. Upon completion, it zooms in on tape measure and I have animations from there to get to the main site.This was successfully done in Actionscript 2.0, but I need it to work in Actionscript 3.0.
