ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Video Player That Has Normal Mode And Fullscreen Mode
Nov 17, 2010
I wanted to make a video player that has normal mode and fullscreen mode. The part I am having trouble understanding is how to handle the video once it gets set to fullscreen. Do I just use the current video or do I get a high quality version of the video to show during fullscreen mode? What would be best practice for this situation?
I have a set of users who run my application in non debug mode. Off late they have been reporting lot of issues. But I am not able to debug as there is no log file.Is it possuible in flex 3 to do logging in a file without running in debug version. I understand trace only works if we run application in debug version.
Is there any way to block the action fullscreen mode to normal mode in video. One way is blocking the esc key. But I am using that key for another purpose.
Does anyone know how to add "NORMAL MODE BUTTON" when I toggle it to FULLSCREEN MODE? In that way, I can switch back to normal mode? Also, how to make the active page different color on the navigation button?URL...
I'm trying to follow along with a basic animation tutorial online using ActionScript. It mentions to switch to expert mode from normal mode, but says that to do this, I need to click on a blue arrow with a box around it(which I don't see anywhere)? Where would I click to switch to expert mode? Is expert mode needed to animate certain things(I'm working with a movie clip)?
I've made a flash application using actionscript 3, I wanted this application size to be dynamic, To be able to embed it in any size and let it adjust itself accordingly. I managed to accomplish this, theres a problem though: The original width of the application is 700 pixels. I'm embedding the flash in a smaller size, (400 for example) going to full screen, and when I exit, the application sets itself back to being 700 pixels wide, and isn't adjusting itself to the 400px width of the actual embedding area..
I'm trying to get to a situation in which only if both 2 things are correct then do this and if only one of them is correct, do different thing. I have a flash video player. I want to tell a button that if on press the the video is in normal screen mode then gotoAndStop(2). But if the video is in full screen and the frame on root is frame 1 then gotoAndStop 2. I tried this but there is something missing:
A lot of users on one of our online apps complain about the app freezing in the fullscreen mode. I googled and came across many others complaining about this problem for other flash apps. Is it such a common problem, or are there known causes for it?
I have an executable with several embedded videos that plays fine but when I go Full Screen I lose the video. Anyone have this problem before? I am working in CS4 and using AS3.
I'm having an issue with an FLV video playback in a scene. When I go to fullscreen mode, I seem to lose the ability to adjust the video object.
I am loading a new video via FLVPlayerback(). Since the video is being loaded into the scene on top of everything else, I use swapChildren() to put my button back on top of the video. When the video is done playing, I removeChild() the video.
This works in the normal playstate.
However, if I am in fullscreen mode, swapChildren() and removeChild both do not work. If I exit fullscreen mode, they are indeed working.
basically i'm following this tutorial on how to make a fullscreen HD video [URL]the only difference is i'm not using any flash components with my player.when i play the video on a normal screen, the video zooms in with the size of my object which the embedded plash player. all my controllers are not visible but still somehow it was on the back that you can still click on while the video is playing.also, on fullscreen mode, definitely all controllers are gone.
I have a small problem with my fullscreen mode.It enters fullscreen mode nicely when the user click on a button and exit as well when you press the"esc" key (which is the standard). is there a way to track when i exit the full screen because i want to make some MovieClip to re appear at their initial position.
I've always been frustrated when I use the FLV video player component because it does not create the full-screen button For example, I have a 1280x720 F4V video. I want to use the FLV component to play it. But I want it to be on the stage half that size (640x360) and then give viewer option to click full screen to play it at 1280x720 (like YouTube does).So I'm basically stuck with the same old player controller that flash CS4 generates with no full screen capability.
I've got a fullscreen button which, when clicked, works. However, after a few seconds, Flash automatically exits full-screen mode and reverts to normal mode. I'm running this in the browser. I tried stripping all the code in the fullScreen event handler down to this (I removed toggling between displayStates): private function fullScreenHandler( event:MouseEvent ):void { stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN; } It's still happening. Has anyone seen this before?
Is there any way to debug fullscreen mode? I Ctrl+enter and I see the swf but the fullscreen button never works, like when I forgot the allowFullScreen param in my HTML code.Do I have to add some parameter to the CS5 properties?
I am loading an image in a back mc stretched to 100% of the stage width and height. Everything works fine except in fullscreenmode - the image does not resize to fit the new stage width and height. Here is the code:
PHP Code:
function loadFunc(What, Where) { var LoadingObject = new MovieClipLoader(); var NewObject = new Object(); NewObject.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {
I need to play a flash website in full screen mode. That runs fine but then I have a link where we have an FLV video component. Whenever I browse to the link having the FLV video, the video goes fullscreen and fills the whole screen. I want the FLV so that it remains at the original video dimensions while I'm at Full Screen. Also I have another problem, if I let the video play in full screen, then when I press escape to get out of video it exits the full screen mode as well, how can I exit the video yet not exit full screen mode.
BTW, I've searched the internet and couldn't find any example of flash where we have flv video in full screen mode website.
I'm encountering a strange problem with using Fullscreen mode. Basically I want the whole piece to become fullscreen, but because there is an flv active within the page the flv is taking over the fullscreen instead of the whole piece. Is there any way to stop it from doing this?I'm applying it like this:switch(FS_STATUS){ case false: stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN; FS_STATUS = true; break; case true: stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL; FS_STATUS = false; break; default: break; }If the flv is there it causes the flv to go fullscreen instead of the whole thing, frustrating!
I built a flash player using the flvplayback component. I have a menu that slides up when the user brings the mouse down over the bottom 130 pixels of the flvplayback component. I did this by creating a symbol that is a clear box called "trig" and using "trig.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, slidebar);" with "slidebar" being a function that calls the tween to make the menu appear. To go into fullscreen mode i use the command "video.enterFullScreenDisplayState();" which is called by a button. Is there any way to set it so that my sliding menu will still work in fullscreen mode?
In a related question is there anyway to to have the player start in fullscreen mode? I tried using video.enterFullScreenDisplayState(); as the first line of the action script file after the import commands, but that didn't seem to work.
I'm running a standalone EXE file via the Projector (or whatever it's called when you run a standalone EXE file made with Flash). It's NOT a web-based application. Every time I go to fullscreen mode, I just get a blank screen. All of the images are gone. However, if I press Esc to exit the full screen mode, then the pictures appear again. Is this a bug with Flash CS3? This is what I put in the first frame of my movie in the 'actions' section:
When I run the Flash program (as an exe file), the program goes fullscreen, but all of the elements on the stage disappear, leaving the screen blank. However, when I exit out of fullscreen mode (by pressing ESC) then everything looks like it's supposed to, with the images showing up and everything.
I have a main FLA into which at certain points flvs and swfs are loaded and played, my current problem is that I have a loaded flv(display) which is set to loop using this code:ActionScript Code:import fl.video.*;
// Video component instance name var flvControl:FLVPlayback = display; var flvSource:String = "mainscreen.flv";
I've started now working with the fullscreen mode (for a project in college), and I already made the code for a button to turn the stage on fullscreen.I'd like to know if anyone knows how to leave the fullscreen mode by button?I used this code for turning the fullscreen "on" on the opening button:[code]Then I tried turning the fscommand on the fullscreen "false" on the closing button, but it doesn't work.And btw, how can I make the "open" button appear if I use ESC?
coming from a print background i am trying to teach myself both as2 and as3 and am working on a couple of small projects for myself. I have run into the issue, where the user is in fullscreen mode cannot use keyboard commands to inout text. I would like to know how i could make an alert that appears when the user is in fullscreen mode only.

This probably is a stupid question but does anyone know how I can start a standalone swf file in fullscreen mode.I want it to cover the whole screen when it starts.
