I have created a video player in AS3 using some of the code from Lee's tutorials to create the loadBar and Srcubber. My video works, the play, pause and rewind buttons work. However, I cannot get the loadBar and scrubber to work.
[Code]....
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");

i'm just new flash and actioscript as well.i'm following exactly the tutorial of making a media player but on the progress bar and scrubber part, mine doesn't work.the progress bar won't progress at all while i'm playing a flv file, the scrubber works only by on loading the bytes but if i scrub it, it won't work. it will just be still works on playing the video from start to finish.

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 RepliesIm trying to make a preloader. this is my first attempt and from a tutorial and some minor adjustments on my part this is what ive come up with. i was wondering if there was a way to add a percent, and also why this doesnt disapear after its done loading. it remains on the stage throughout the loaded swf.
PHP Code:
siteLoader.loadMovie("Population.swf");
loadingBar._xscale = 1;
loadingBar.onEnterFrame = function() {

I followed exactly like the video tutorial[URL]... and so far everything is working fine except that my loader bar starts from the middle and progressively fill up the left and right area.I can't seem to get the loadbar to start from left to right.
View 7 RepliesI have a loader mc which scales to the width of the Stage. The loader mc has 3 nested mc's.A bg mc, progressBar mc, and loadBar mc.The loader and all nested mc's scale properly when I test it in the flash IDE but once I place the swf in a html page then the width is not accurate anymore. Another issue is since the loader stretches across the stage it needs to resize correctly in fullscreen mode. Click here here to view the example
// This is the code
// ----- [ Stage Align ] ----- //
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

I'm having troubles with my scrubber on my loadbar again.As a picture says a 1000 words heres a screenshot of the problem.Basically the scrubber bar is going waaaay past the 373px I asked to stop at.I've tried messing about with telling scrubber_mc to stop at the end of ._x of the loadbar clip but have had no luck.Here's the code:
/*These are the scrubber functions*/

What do I have to change so it doesn't load the whole movie but only the scene it's in, I don't want to load everything at the same time... And if I load a external swf in my movie does the loadBar load this or do I have to put this script in the external swf file.

View 14 RepliesI have my preloader set up rightnow to display a loadbar and the load percentage. However, what i would like to do is have the Dynamic text box display, for example: "56 of 200 kilobytes loaded"
This is my current code:
[AS]bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;

On Actionscript I found this really cool smooth preloader [URL]..In my example you see a pink button. This button sets the to be loaded SWF in a var and commands the Cover Over image to play (cover). After the Cover MC had reached the over-state (frame 15), there is a loadBar + an action giving a loadMovie command (it needs to be loaded into a MC called content)

View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a scrubber that will allow me to scrub through the root time line which has streaming audio on it. I have created audio players before where the file was being streamed in from an external file, but have not dealt with it ever being on the timeline.
[Code]...
It works pretty well, however, there is a problem. When I scrub the bar, the audio stops playing. I am assuming it is related to the enterframe function, but I am not sure on how to correct the code.
I followed a couple of tuts and I have the gallery working, but I would like it to have a preloader, so I added a basic one to the first 2 frames of the root and moved gallery movieclip and controller to the 3rd frame.the preloader works and the movie goes to frame 3 but then my controller(scrubber) for my gallery doesnt work, in the code there is nothing refering to the _root just _parent so I am not sure where the problem is.

LOADED = Math.round(getBytesLoaded());
TOTAL = Math.round(getBytesTotal());
PERCENT = LOADED/TOTAL;

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 0 RepliesI've been following the tutorials for building a custom flv player and have come across a few problems, the player can be seen online here: [URL]. I'm having a few issues with the scrubber and the load bar, they loadbar starts in the middle and stretches out towards the sides and the scrubber starts in the middle and runs off the end? I'm pretty new to actionscript as have only really used flash for simple animations before, i have attached the source file and the actions are listed below.
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

Are there any examples or tutorials on AS3 scrubbers? I cant find any that don't deal with flv control... I need swf timeline control and dont have the knowhow to convert an as2 version.
View 14 Replieshow to build a scrubber bar to control an external SWF. I have a template built that will load external SWF files into a content area. I already built a play/pause button into it but cannot figure out how to make it so the progress bar moves and is scrubbable. I know it has something to do with the total frames/length of the loaded SWF, the width of the progress bar and making the progress bar's tab draggable/constrained but not sure how to put it all together to make it work. I've tried a few things but none of them worked (I'd attach the code I tried, but I trashed it and reverted back to what worked last time).
View 1 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 Repliespeople on these forums have been really kind to me in the past, so I thought I'd try to get some feedback on a problem that I'm currently working on and have approached from a number of angles. While building my own FLV playback component (progress bar which doubles as scrubber (i.e., has a slidable knob, etc.) included), I ran into the following problem:
Once a button that begins download of an FLV is released and the FLV begins loading, the progress bar (which represents the FLV's timeline/total/loaded amounts, etc.) increases (width), however, if during this process a user starts to drag the knob, the width of the progress bar is 'stunted', in other words, while the 'onPress' event is active, the 'videoStatus' event is disabled (the event/function responsible for the proportionate increase of the FLV progress bar's width).
[Code]...
P.S. Using intervals is not really option as this entire process was originally created using intervals (if anyone else is familiar with Lee Brimelow's video tutorial on FLV playback components), however, upon realising that two simultaneously-running intervals won't do the trick, he posted an updated version using 'onEnterFrame' events... (the problem seems to be however, that whether you use two intervals or two 'onEnterFrame' events, the scrubber breaks...) therefore, going back to intervals would probably be taking a step backwards..
I would like to make a player controller with a scrubber for an animation I am creating. I do not want to control a video (mp3, flv, or other). I want to control the animation on the timeline. My Flash file has scenes. Is there a tutorial for applying a controller for this kind of file?
View 1 RepliesI am building a video player using FLVPlayback and some custom controls (AS3). At the moment when you click the thumb in the progress bar the video pauses and you can drag to a new position on the track and resume playing from there when you release the thumb (this is done using FLVPlayback.seekPercent()).I need to update this so that as you are dragging the video is constantly updating to the correct frame.
I tried using the working that fires on release and calling it on enterframe while the thumb is dragging and everything went wrong. I can't see any reason for this to be a problem and the code so far is pretty straight forward.
I want to use an interactive move scrubber like the one used on this link [url]...
View 2 RepliesI 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?
