View 1 RepliesI'm trying to debbug my code on Client side (Action Script 3) that works with Flash Media Server 4 on localhost. Everything seems fine up to that point.However, when I'm trying to test my player with other remote streaming servers, I notice bugs because of lower bandwith transmission between the server and the player.Is there a simple way to simulate lower bandwith with FMS4 on localhost (by config, application.xml, programmation...) ?

However, when I'm trying to test my player with other remote streaming servers, I notice bugs because of lower bandwith transmission between the server and the player.
Is there a simple way to simulate lower bandwith with FMS4 on localhost ?
by config, application.xml, etc.?
by programmation (main.asc) ?
both ?
I would like to test automate a flash video player (similar to YouTube player). Can you recommended tools/ methodology for it.
View 1 Repliesi usually write my code with textmate.
a custom command for testing the proj directly in flash is:
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash CS5/Adobe Flash CS5.app /tmp/fc.jsfl
what about the flash standalone player?
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4/player/mac/Flash Player.app /tmp/fc.jsfl
works great but it only open the player...it doesn'pass the file to it.
I have a music player and because of my fast connection I cannot test if the pre-loader and or bar works. Also no matter what I do I can't get the second track to play.
View 2 RepliesI've been trying to make my a simple RTMP player test. It seems to be getting the link, but not actually playing the video.
Here is the code:
Code:
var connection_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
connection_nc.connect("rtmp://video.njspeakup.com/vod/ppd");
var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connection_nc);
[Code].....
The onStatus is tracing back info, but like I said, nothing is playing. I have a videoPlayer on the stage with the name my_video. The FLA is attached. (CS3)
i am New to flex.Can any one point me to a small piece of mxml code which plays audio files(mp3,wav.....) also which has the capabilities to pause, play, stop.... the audio file. Also this file would be embedded in a html file later on..
View 1 RepliesIts been two years since I built a video player and back then Flash was the only choice (just about). My question is if I want to stream a .h24 video over the web that is cross browser and platform compatible, has anything the ubiquity of Flash? How about Flowplayer?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get a streaming XML mp3 player to work
Alright, first go here [URL] it works, right? Now go to [URL] Notice I have the exact player set up there, but it doesn't work... why? Is it a myspace thing?
I'm using MX by the way
here's what I got under the hood:
[Code].....
Just installed Windows 7 RC (7100), and got the latest Flash player for IE8 and Opera. My site [URL] has a music player I created that plays (streams) MP3s from a Flash Comm Server I run. The player works fine with Flash Player version 10.0.22.87 on other platforms, but not in Windows 7. Once you pick a song, it should start immediately. Even clicking the play button doesn't work. The symptoms make me think there's a problem establishing the netconnection for streaming. Wondering if anyone else has Windows 7 specific problems with Flash player?
View 3 RepliesI am pretty dense about flash, pretty new to the software so bare with me. So on the main .fla i have linked to a button to open the external swf mp3 player. That Mp3 player is streaming a song with the code var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mysong.mp3"); snd.load(req);
the mp3 is in a folder which is located in the same place as both the .fla and .swf mp3 player. Streaming the mp3 works when testing the swf. but there is no sound when testing the linked swf mp3 player in the main .fla. It's like the file path messes up but i dont know how to go about fixing it?
I'm struggling with a flash file that I want to play two different sound files when the appropriate buttons are pressed.I've gotten it to the point where it will load without any errors popping up, but instead of playing the second sound when I press the button for that sound, it plays the first sound again. Here's the code:
var sc1:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var s1:Sound = new Sound();
s1.load(new URLRequest("http://www.website.com/wells.mp3"));

we are using flash interactive server 3.5 and have just noticed that when flash player upgrades to 10r32 the streaming fails? Is this a known issue and does anyone know if it is specifically a rtmp prob?
View 4 Repliesi would like to ask which is the best way to embed my .swf player to my blog and my site to view my streaming video from my FMS?The whole streaming proccess works great but i do not know how to put the .swf player to my blog and my site
View 1 RepliesI'm building a video player here[url]...
It's streaming RTMP, and I'm trying to get my video to seek correctly if the user clicks on the groove bar (gray bar under the green progress bar) Currently it does not seek and gives me a NaN on my duration variable and an error on my progress bar width variable, which is puzzling me.
For some reason my videoDuration variable is coming up as NaN when used inside of my seeker function, also I'm getting a null object reference error when trying to trace out playerCntrls.progressTotalW which is the total width of the groove bar[code]...
I need to figure out how to utilize one SWF player/file to load different streaming F4V files dynamically.[code]...
Currently I am publishing a separate SWF player/file for each F4V, but this is unacceptable. I need to use one SWF file to load different F4V files. I'm not that knowledgeable in the ways of Flash, but I believe that the "src" attribute of the embed tag and the "name='movie'" attribute of the object's param tag needs to point to the SWF player/file. So does anybody know how I can manipulate the object and embed tags to make them load a different F4V file into the SWF player?
I have written a little MP3 streaming player. Nothing big. But on some file, it takes longer to fill enough of the buffer before starting to play. My construct is fairly simple...
var player:Sound = new Sound();
player.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void {
if (success) {
// do something;
}}
player.loadSound(musicURL,true);
Since I have specified streaming, this will auto play as soon as the buffer is full. What I'd like to do is play a little animation or something while the buffer is filling so the user won't think the player has hung.
I started with a XML driven 3d Carousel and a XML driven streaming MP3 player, mixed them both up, and made a mess.I can't seem to be able to modify the mp3 player to be able to select separate 'banks' of songs.I tried one method of loading mulitple XML files, each one being a single song 'bank'. But that didn't work as the previously loaded 'bank' would stay in the memory. (When I clicked the second tape, both the first track of bank1 and the first track of bank2 would play simultaneously.)
Now what I think I need to do, is load in one XML file that contains all the 'banks' wrapped in an <Album> tag like so:
Code: Select all<Album index="tape1" title="LA Tool and Die" artist="LA Tool and Die" imageURL="images/tape1.jpg">
<Tracks>
<Track
[code]....
then when a tape is selected, point the audio player to the selected <album> node.But working that into the working streaming audio player is a bit over my head, as is building a audio streamer from scratch.Included is the file that compiles to the sample with the exception of having the 'multiple XML files' bit taken out.
How do you create a streaming MP3 Player with multiple songs? My dilema is not getting the song to play but how do you create it so that no matter which song its on it will go to the very next one? like if it is song 3 go to 4. Because that would be a variable that would constantly change.
View 1 RepliesI've developed a video player using NetConnection/NetStream that works fine, in as2 and also in as3. The peculiarity of my player is that read an xml file (editable by a cms) that sets if needed some "cuepoints". In the stream version it's not possible to inject ascuepoints in the video file, so i read the xml and with a listener i set a menu that sets the seek point of the video. Also the user when watch video sets an exit point by closing it. From the second time the user lands on the player, my code put the seek point in the last position seen.
I've seen youtube player and I know that youtube uses progressive download. It's awesome to know that because you can jump from one position to another like a streaming service. It seems an hybrid version with the capabilities of the streaming and the band saving of the progressive download. There's something that i can't imagine..
I am trying to create a menu, similar to a dock menu but that just magnifies the images when rolled over (rather than overly crazy carosels or massively zooming docks. and secondly...the dock menu would link to separate flvs that are on a streaming server. I've never worked with one before and wonder how to connect them to my flash. I'm trying to create an flv player, sorry, shouldve said earlier... but one that only plays 6 vids (linked to by the magnifying dock menu).

I've read Microsoft added streaming of some kind in Windows Media Player for Windows 7, could it be interfering?
Can we customize the flash player in Flash Media Server 4 like putting branding name (say some corner) like that? I am thinking to put my brand (my branding name) on a flash player while I streaming live event is it possible?
View 4 RepliesI'm looking for a Flash video player that is able to stream m4v files on all browsers. Example file: [URL]
Unfortunately, I can't convert the format since it originates from 3rd party servers. I can't rely on HTML5 video since not all browsers support this format and the encoding it contains.
I've already tried several players such as JW Player, Kaltura, Video JS, Projekktor, and more. Testing them with Firefox and IE, some of them couldn't play the m4v file at all, while others downloaded the entire file before starting to play it.
I have an activex display that is custom-built and displays video from an IP camera. However it doesnt show on all browsers. I was then adviced to use flash/actionscript to stream a jpeg that the camera drops on a remote server with ip address (just example) 80.247.23.12/container/live.jpg.
However the file name is constant. how can i use flash to stream this live jpeg and make it appear like a streaming movie. I don't know how to go about this at all.
I have a streaming MP3 player that i'm going to incorporate into my site. Below is the AS for the player. At the moment the player starts automatically when the page loads up. Can someone tell me what i'd need to change so the player doesn't start streaming on page load....?
Code:
stop();
playlist = new XML();

I've just been asked to create a video player which automatically chooses the correct bitrate video to stream by detecting the bandwidth.I have no experience creating a video player so I'm looking for links/resources to do some research on the topic.Has anyone here created a video player in Flash? Would it be better to create in Flash or Flex?Once again, I have no prior knowledge in this type of creation and could use an experienced developer's opinion on what the first step is towards progress.
View 3 RepliesAfter I updated Adobe flash player I noticed that videos I streamed did not play correctly.A video will begin to play but part way through it will freeze. It will indicate that it is buffering but it never finishes buffering and never continues to play, even if I refresh it.This occurs for several sites such as youtube, megavideo, and wisevid. This occurs for every browser I have tried (Firefox, IE, and Opera.) I also realized today that now iTunes cannot not download video either. When I try it says that parts of the files seem to be corrupted. I have uninstalled and reinstalled flash several times but that has not helped. I am using Adobe 10.1 (under version test it says it is WIN 10,1,53,64) and I have Windows 7
