ActionScript 3.0 :: NetStream Seek Based On Previous Flv
Apr 15, 2009
I have a series of movie clips (flv's). All are the same movie clip of a rotating object but it's different colour in each clip.When one clip is playing and I click to play another, I would like the clicked movie clip to start playing from the same position at which the previous clip was at. So if a clip had played for 3 seconds and I click a different clip, I would like it to seek and play from 3 seconds instead of 0.[code]Can anyone tell me how I would go about tracking the data of how many seconds of a clip has played?My guess is that it will either be metadata or NetStatusEvent related.

I am working on an app that will take a snapshot of an rtmp stream of an archived video, save it to a file, and ExternalInterface the file name to the hosting page to javascript it up for display.
I actually have all pieces working great. The only time an error is thrown is when I pause the video, seek to somewhere, and then try to take a snapshot. Then there is a runtime error of:
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: mySwf.swf cannot access rtmp://myFlashServer/myApp. No policy files granted access.I've seen post after post of suggestions and have tried them, but without success.
I have the crossdomain.xml and my FlashMediaServer security setup fine (it is actually working, except for this one glitch). It just seems to be the pause-then-seek-then-BitMapData.draw() combination which is creating issues.
Another weird thing: after the error is thrown, if I resume the stream and take a snapshot, it works flawlessly again.

When working with MOV files using the h.264 codec and AAC sound I am unable to get netStream.seek to work correctly. No matter what argument I pass to netStream.seek it will always seek to 0. I have this problem on both a legacy as2 and a newer as3 video player I have built. Regular flvs work perfectly on both players.

I am working on a Flash Video player and am implementing the ability to start a video at x time within the span of an FLV (served from FMS). I am able to start it x seconds into a stream without any issue using
netStream.play(source, startTime);
but as far as I can tell, it only supports seconds. I am looking to be able to give a start time (or even a seek time if that is supported) in milliseconds, or really anything more precise than whole seconds.
Anyone know of any way to achieve this even by monkey patching the fl classes?

The problem is that I have an fla video player that uses the netstream class in order to pull a stream (mp4 h264), I've tried this with a few different mp4 files and they all behave the same..Basically, when I goto seek to a position, say 10 seconds into a 300 second mp4, the movie buffer goes blank and my readout of the current time I can see climbing from around 7 seconds and keeps going all the way to the end.. almost as if the seek command is trying to find a keyframe where it can resume from..I'm using http (not rtmp), and thus streaming directly from naive http.After awhile I decided to use the FLVPlayback component, set the source to the same, and it read in some initial metadata.. when I try the movie with the FLVPlayback component I can pause, seek resume to any position without problem, at first I was thinking the problem might have been http related but if the FLVPlayback component works then I'm a little stuck..Also note that I've checked the seekpoints of the movies and there are TONS of them, so the seek command should be able to find a nearby seekpoint to where I suggest.

It seems seek() on mp4 file seeks to the closest keyframe (seekpoint). Is it possible to seek to exact position in between of keyframes?

I'm trying to play an FLV using the Netstream class - standard stuff, really using nothing more complex than things you can find in the help files. I've created a control panel with a bar you can use to click and drag and scrub through the video.
Exporting to Flash Player 9, it's working fine and I can scrub through the video, but only while the FLV is still loading. As soon as it hits 100% the scrubbing (using Netstream.seek()) becomes incredibly unresponsive, almost to the point of crashing the player.
I've killed all ENTER_FRAMES, removed all unnecessary listeners and nullified everything I can think of but something massively resource-intensive seems to be kicking in as soon as the load finishes.
Has anyone ever seen this? I've never come across this and can't find anything similar across assorted forums.
Code below but I don't think the mouse-move drag actions are the problem! Fine in the Flash CS4 IDE, broken in the browser.
// Drag
private function dragVideo(e:MouseEvent):void {
// Match the x position of the dragger to the x position of the mouse
videoControls.progressBar.dragger.x = videoControls.progressBar.barInner.mouseX;

I am implementing a video player in Actionscript and I need to be able to define the starting play time for the videos. Netstream.seek(pos) works for flv files but fails for H.264 files (the player starts playing the video from the beginning). Anyone knows what might be the problem? (I am using Netstream for this instead of adding a parameter with the starting time when I call the Netstream.play method because I don't have Flash Media Server).

I have a "video on demand" video that I'd like to seek at any point of the video. It's playing on a Motorola Xoom tablet. I can seek to the beginning of the video when the playhead is near the beginning. However, if I the playhead is towards the end of the video and I attempt to seek to the beginning of the video, the video seeks many seconds after the start of the video. I thought this might be a buffering issue, so I set inBufferSeek to true, but I still have the same issue.

I am using OSMF v1.0 along with FMS 3.5.3 and flash player 10.1. Whenever i do a seek, lets say to a time 't'. Netstream.time gives me an incorrect result which is more than 1.5*t (varies). So if i seek to 100, i get netstream.time as approx. 160. I also noticed, 'NetStream.info.VideoBufferLength' goes very high (from around 3-4 to 50-60) just before the Netstream.time parameter gets updated and drops backs after update.

I'm doing an online advertising format (728x90 leaderboard). I have embedded a video into the flash file which covers 1/3 of the format (242x90).What i need to do is seek this video from 0% to 100% based on the mouse position over this area (242x90). I'm guessing it would be easier if i created a button over the video which is 242x90 but i would still be looking for the code that seeks the video based on the mouse position over the button.

why a small bit of the sound is heard from a previous video loaded via netstream. I am loading h264 mp4 files, locally.
I'm stopping and hiding the previous video with:
Code:
stream_ns.pause();
stream_ns.seek(0);
video.visible= false;
Please show me the light
[EDIT] I did find a work around by starting a timer when the video starts to turn the volume to 1 from 0 (set in my video stop function) after a second.

I made an interface that laods a FLV video (as far as I know this is progressive download as I'm not using any Flash Media server or whatever).The point is that I added a Button on the stage with the following code:
on (release) { _root.stream_ns.seek(15); }
I also have a event catcher like this in the main timeline:
stream_ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) { if (infoObject["code"] == "NetStream.Seek.InvalidTime") { _root.text_display = "Not loaded yet"; }}

What I am trying to do is get the animation of the audio levels (red bars next to the power switch) to only happen while a video is actually playing (videos are in the video gallery section). I have the animation done and I can easily get it to start and stop based on pressing the play and stop buttons, but since they start and pause the video you would get instances where the video isn't playing but the audio levels would be animated, which I don't want.
Here is an example of the code in the play button (using NetConnection and NetStream to play the videos):
Code:
play_btn.onPress = function() {
playSound.start();
infoText_txt.text = "PLAY";
my_ns.pause(spotToPlay);
};
The only way I can think to make it work exactly as I want it is to have Flash look to see if the video is actually playing or not and I can't figure out how to do this or if its even possible using the NetStream command I am using to start and stop the videos.

I'm making a small video players in AS3, and I've found that after calling NetStream.pause() or NetStream.togglePause(), no status messages are being fired any more.If I click the "pause" button while the video is buffering, I never get the Buffer.Full message.Here is some code:
_connection = new NetConnection();
_connection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
_connection.connect(null);[code].....

I have various movies clip within a movie and my back (mc = arr2_mc) and next (mc = arr1_mc) buttons are on the main scene.This is on my main scene on a first frame
ActionScript Code:
movieclip.prototype.playBackwards = function(arg){
if(arguments.length>0) {[code]....
when it goes back, it goes back frame by frame without stopping but I want it to go only to previous Scene. instead of going to previous frame.Do i have to create a unique button? which i did but i didn't work?

A NetStatusEvent with info.code of "NetStream.Connect.Closed" is dispatched by NetConnection when a NetStream is closed. This seems kind of weird, shouldn't the NetStream dispatch the event? how do I know which NetStream has been closed if I have more than one running (which I do)? I need to know so I can cleanup the now dead stream.

I just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.

I'm relatively new to AS3. There's one thing that I don't quite understand about Sprites. I'm making a tile based game, and all the tile graphics for a level are inside one movie clip in each frame. Would I be able to go about creating multiple sprites based on the frames in said movieclip's timeline I would I have to go through and make a separate library graphic for each.
