I'm making a working scrubber on a video, but having problems. The scrub itself it starting out in the middle of the loadbar. I've looked everywhere, trying to find out what is wrong with it. Here is the code and link to my .fla [URL]

All this code works properly, however when I include the part which controls the video resize metadata the scrubber stops working... (see the section between the ">>> <<<").
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(2);
ns.onStatus = function(info) {

I am making a player that adds an advertisement before a video but don't want the user to be able to skip though the ad. I am using the progress component and an FLV Playback component for my player. I had tried to just hide the progress bar but it looks unbalanced. If anyone has an idea on how to make it so a user can not fast forward though the ad by dragging the scrubber that would be great.
View 2 RepliesI'm tweaking the video code found here [URL] His progress bar starts at the edge of the stage. My progress bar starts at x=40 into the stage. My problem is that even though all my mcs related to the progress bar are positioned properly the scrubber mc hops to the edge of the screen when the video starts. It also acts as if the progress bar you scrub though is at the edge of the screen too. I can't figure out why it's doing this. There's nothing in the code to tell it to do as such.

I am building a timeline with a scrubber. The handle on the scrubber is a movie clip, and it was all working fine. But I didn't like that when you clicked on it, the hand icon would be glued to the left hand side of the handle. So I changed to registration of the handle file so that it would be in the middle. Now my 'onReleaseOutside' command quit working. If I set the registration back, the release command works again.
Basically, if I drag the handle all the way to a side and have the mouse continue past the flash file and release it, it wont register it has been released until I move the mouse back over the flash, which also moves the scrubber handle to _x location of the mouse for where ever it entered the swf. Is there something obvious I am missing? Or do I have to deal with an un-centered handle?
I'm new to flash. I'm trying to create a swf of a video with scrubber and at a certain point through the video the web address pops up and is clickable. I have tried embedding the flv within the timeline but it warns me that things could get out of sync.
View 2 RepliesI'm looking for a tutorial on the interwebs to create a scrubber for the length of a movie clip.For example:If a movieclip is 300 frames long, the beginning of the scrubber would be Frame 1 and the end would be Frame 300 with Frames 2-299 in the middle.I'd like the user to be able to scroll through the movie much like a Quicktime VR
View 2 RepliesI will tell you what exactly i need. I need a video scrubber and it should be in a circular shape. I will tell you how it has to work. I want to rotate with a small circle on top of a big circle. lets assume that small circle is called a dragger. Now i need to drag that on top of the circle either in clock wise direction or in anticlock wise. If am dragging in clock wise, the loading video has to seek forward. suppose in case if am dragging in anti clock wise, i need to see the video backward. This is the functionality am going to implement in FLASH CS3/FLASH CS4.
View 1 RepliesI am playing flv files on a site. The way I am bring them is via the import video from the library (not using flv component). I am loading the videos via using netStream. So far so good. Everything works fine. I want to be able to scrub through the video by clicking and dragging left or right on the video itself. I plan to make the mouse cursor turn into a symbol that has a left and right arrow when you roll over the video hence letting you know that you can click and drag left or right to forward or rewind through the video. IS this possible? If so, how can I accomplish this?
View 5 RepliesI have created an XML driven Video Player based on Lee Brimelow's Video TutorialI have a MC called loader which contains two MCs- a circular shaped clip called scrub which can be used to seek to particular time of the video. and anoder MC called loadbar which denotes the amount of video loaded by expanding correspondingly.Everything works fine except the video scrubber (the playhead). when the scrubber reaches the end of the movie; instead of stopping at the end of the loader MC it goes beyond it.here's the code:
Code:
function videoStatus() {
amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded/ns.bytesTotal;

I am working with the scrub element in my custom video player. The code for this in AS2 is as follows (this is the whole of it). How the scrub portion is coded in AS3?
HTML Code:
var nc:NetConnecttion = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
theVideo.attachVideo(ns);
ns.play("vegas.flv");
[Code] .....
I've got nearly all of it working but the drag action of the scrubber. Seeks on MouseDown but doesn't drag. Oddly I've got this very functionality working for the audio volume scrub bar but not the playhead.
Here is the troubled portion of the code. Happy to send a src file:
Code:
// ScrubHandle Dragging Variables
var ratio_play:Number;
var playTrackBounds:Rectangle = controls.trackbar.getBounds(controls);
var playXpos:Number = playTrackBounds.x;
[Code].....
For some reason my scrubber won't scrub correctly while the video is loading, but once it has completed it scrubs just fine. [code]...

View 3 RepliesI'm building a flv_video AS3 player. I'm using steaming-video.The player is working fine, but there is something that I want to improve. Currently when I push play button and if I drag&drop the scrubber of progress-bar somewhere in the area that is still not buffered, the player doesn't start to play from that position. So I want to do it.
View 2 RepliesAfter making changes to a perfectly working fla it won't publish correctly,meaning:1. When previewing all the components jump (as usually happens when there isa compile error) but no error is displayed in the log.In this case when used with the whole project, the project doesn't load,even though the corrupted fla is not the first loaded (non of the fla loadsbesides the preloader).2. When previewing and running with the whole project the labels on thebutton components disappear, but only the ones that are dynamically changedby an external as file.*there are other similar bugs as well like unable to enter the table in thegame etc.The changes I make before it happens:- changing the size of a shape inside a movie clip.- changing the size of a movie clip.- changing anything in an already existing code (like changing the size of afont).- adding new basic code anywhere (like trace code).
- changing button skins.Basically, any change I make corrupts the file but not consistently,meaning, I can make the same change twice and the file will break only one of thetimes, or, I can make several changes until it breaks.It also happens on every computer but also, not consistently, I can work fora while, making the same change, deleting, making the change again etc, onlyon the fifth or sixth time the file will break. On a different computer itcan take only two or three times.The corrupted file start working again after I change the name of the foldercontaining my project or move all the files to a different folder anywhereon my computer. After a short while the file crushes again.
I have a looping aquarium with looping swimming fish. I want to be able to click the fish and they make a pop-up appear with info about them. I can't figure out the code to launch the pop-up? I am using CS3 and action script 2.0.
View 5 RepliesI'm working on a Flash video slideshow (which you can preview here). I would like to be able to make it so you can click a button (I've got one made in the doc already) that will make just the video on each "slide" go full screen, similar to how you can do so with other videos on sites like YouTube and others.
While what I've linked to above is just a template I'm messing with, I'd like to be able to have a video on the right, let's say, with text on the left, and then be able to click a button (perhaps under the video that says "full screen) and have the video that is there fill the whole window and play.
I am new to this company and my employer who knows I haven't worked with Flash asked me to look into making a flash video for new software that he developed.

It's been a while since I've last posted, but I read a lot of others' posts, and try to keep up to date.My question is this:I have a group of images that are loaded up using xml into a movieclip. The movieclip is masked. I have 2 buttons, that scrolls the grouping either up or down. I would like to make these buttons inactive when the grouping of images is on it's last row, meaning when there is only one row of images shown on the screen/mask.
I have tried using hitArea, but I wasn't successful. This would be easy for me to achieve if I wasn't trying to make it a bit dynamic. Basically, someone would be updating the xml file with more nodes/images and the swf would update the list of images, thus making it difficult to hardcode when the list should stop scrolling.
I have a large creation in process that requires a lot of heavy animations and movement with vectors and really processor intensive. Just want to know, regardless of whether the project is huge or small, how to totally stop a class from working? I have three classes I am calling. "class1 = new Class1();" etc. When I am in the level, say, class2, I can still talk to objects in class1 even though I removed the class listeners within that class1 after I was done using it. It still is able to be called upon, and still running something in the background that I can't figure out what it is. I just want to know, rather than searching for whatever is causing the problem, can't I simply null the class that I never ever need to use again?
I tried that, but then I ran a trace and it still tells me that it is a class object. I reckon its because I have a "public var class1:Class1" etc, which means they will always have those objects associated with them, but still. I want to totally get rid of it for garbage collection, and because I don't want to use some of them at all, ever again. So basically, what is the best way to get rid of classes so that they aren't hogging up resources any more?
In my current project I need to create a bitmap from the last frame of a video. For this I use:
Code:
var _vidBitmapData = new BitmapData(video.width, video.height, false, 0x0000ff);
_vidBitmapData.draw(video);
var bmp:Bitmap=new Bitmap(_vidBitmapData)
This works like a fairy in wonderland if I create the video with dimensions matching the stream:
Like
Code:
video =new Video(1280,800)
However, when I change the Video's size on receiving the onMetaData Event according to the actual streams width and height properties, the capture i get from _vidBitmapData.draw is still in the dimensions of how I created the Video. So if I do
Code:
video =new Video(10,10)
and then
private function onMetaData(metadata:Object):void {
video.width=metadata.width;
video.height=metadata.height;
}
I get a nice display of the video.
However when doing the
Code:
var _vidBitmapData = new BitmapData(video.width, video.height, false, 0x0000ff);
_vidBitmapData.draw(video);
var bmp:Bitmap=new Bitmap(_vidBitmapData)
I get a 10 x10 px image....
I'm just trying to make it so the video in my swf (the flv) does not immediately play when a web page opens. I have: imported the .mov into flash, creating a flv file
given it a skin converted it to a symbol (Movie Clip)
given it an instance name of movie_Clip
created an actionscript layer with the simple code of: movie_Clip.stop();
Shouldn't the clip be stopped upon opening the SWF file? How can I make it be stopped?
I have cs4 web premium which doesn't include aftereffects. I need to however make a green/blue backgrounded video transparent (alpha channel, if I got it right) to be used by flash/as3. I'm not sure if I can use either firework or illustrator do the job? another question is, for a short movie clip, which tool can be used to edit the movie frame to turn the non-green/blue clored backgroud into green (then adding alpha channel...)

I know I'm missing something fundamental here, as all three examples are broken. I'm not necessarily just looking for the fix for each of these three. I'd like for your help understanding what I don't understand it, and how to understand it.
Eventually, I'd like to build a template where the client could throw either an .flv or .mpeg4 or .mov at it, and voilĂ , but is something like this even possible, given I correct my current, idiotic Flash principles?
