Professional :: Adding Control Bar To SWF Video
Jan 15, 2010
I need to add a control bar (play, pause, progress bar) to a SWF video in Dreamweaver. It can be very simple, the look and feel is not that important, it just needs to be functional. The only way I can figure out to add one is to import a FLV file into Dreamweaver instead. The problem with this is that I can't figure out how to export a FLV file directly from Flash CS3, and using a converter program to create a FLV file nullifys the links in the menu at the end of the video. Any help would be great! This seems like it should be really simple to accomplish, but I have been pulling my hair out over it all day now.

I'm looking for a way to extend the functionality of the HTMLEditor control that the Ajax Control Toolkit supplies for ASP.net. I would like to add video and flash functionality to the editor (buttons, allowed tags, etc).
To my knowledge, this is rather easy: plop in an embed tag with the correct parameters and it just works; I have videos running in the preview window of the editor.
Unfortunately, the tag is stripped away when saving the HTML-code and updating it in the database.
Hence, I would like to ask if there is any way of adding this functionality apart from manually adding the changes in the source control repository of the Ajax Control Toolkit and recompiling it.

I've searcehd but haven't found anything similar. I am trying to add animation to an educational video that I produced. I am new to Flash but already love it - have used for several presentations at work with my higher students and it's been really, really effective so far.
I have done two things: Imported an .flv of the video that I am trying to add animation to but only see the first and last shots in my timeline. How can I add text and tweens throughout the movie using flash? Or can't I?

The stop button plays as expected. The play/pause button plays as expected. The issue is when you press pause which will cause the play button to appear, then press stop. the video automatically plays and it shouldn't. I have bolded the control button script for convenience.

by following a tutorial on [URL], I was able to display a youtube video in flash, but the problem is that the video doesn't have a control menu. Just wondering if there is a way to make one, either it is customized or some default menu provided by youtube or flash.

I have a video player that plays videos loaded via XML and selected using a combbox. I just got the play and pause buttons to work. What I'm attempting to do now is be able to hit next or previous buttons and select the next or pevious video from the XML file, and update the displayed/selected file in the combobox, my thought was to somehow set the previous/next buttons to directly manipulate the combobox, but nothing I've tried so far has worked.
ActionScript Code:
import fl.data.DataProvider;
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

I have a news rotator that is populated from an RSS feed. The rotator has a timer that cycles through the news items, displaying a link and image and title for each item. I have the put in three buttons for the user to control the item that is displaying. A pause, forward and backward button.
My issue is that I'm not sure how to implement the button without messing up my timer that is already running. I was able to do the Pause button, which was simply to stop the timer. The forward and backward buttons are a bit more tricky. This is what I have so far. Note that I have much of the code duplicated because I needed to initialize the objects for the first timer index. After the first item, the code runs from the timerHandler() function.
PHP Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

I'm making a portfolio site, with simple navigation between pages (layers), nothing too tricky.
one of the projects is a video. I've imported it to Flash as an external video with playback component and it works fine when I play the flash movie.
the problem is, when I navigate away from that project page, the movie goes on running - I can tell by the sound.
how can I make the video stop when I navigate away from its page?

I have looked everywhere to find out how to add a seekbar (so user can scrub and pause). It is so easy to skin a video, but I need the same type of controls for a swf. I see them on the web.

I have tried to make simple buttons to control play, stop, paus and play again of a video.When that did not work I found the below instructions, and made movieclips for the buttons to use with the imported FLVPlayback (with none skin).In step 2 I choose play (for the first play-button/movieclip).In step 3, there is no video to choose in the box - only my own movieclips.In step 4 - what's the difference?In step 5 - there is no setting field...Control video playback using behaviorsSelect the movie clip to trigger the behavior.In the Behaviors panel (Window > Behaviors), click the Add (+) button, and select the desired behavior from the Embedded Video submenu.Select the video to control.Select a Relative or Absolute path.If required, select settings for the behavior parameters and click OK.In the Behaviors panel under Event, click On Release (the default event) and select a mouse event.

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.

Well Ive been trying to make a small flv player in flex, came across 2 problems.
1. How would you make a slider to control the video (Is it called a scrubber?)?
2. How do you change the icon of a button at runtime? (For the play/ pause button, changing the labels I can do, the icons have stumped me).
I couldn't find an example of a mp3/flv player online made in flex that has either of these, so I havn't got a clue how to proceed.

I'm not using flvplayback. I'm using a simple video player that has a pause button on top of it. I want the pause button to just look exactly the same. I've got a ton of other elements on the site, but I just want the video to go fullscreen and the pausebutton to stay the same size...

I have embedded a flv video into my timeline, it uses the flv playback component to play and the SteelExternalAll.swf skin. I would like to control this flv using buttons that I have created that are postioned next to the video player. Ideally, these buttons would be thumbnails, similar to chapter thumbnails on DVDs and would serve a very similar function. As these thumbnail buttons are always present, I want them to change while the movie plays, I think a border around the currently playing would suffice.
The video is nearly 3 mins long, I have made cue points from Sorenson Squeeze.

I need to add interactivity to an .flv video - here's what i need and what I'm guessing I should do, but don't know how as yet:
> I need to add mouse 'hotspots' to items in a video when the items appear. The hotspots would include external weblinks >> My guess is that I could add cuepoints to the flv which dynamically load mc's from the library - the mc's would need to be invisible until mouseover wherein they animate/reveal a list of links.
The mc mouseover is bog standard stuff, but I just don't know how to integrate this into an flv - if indeed this is the correct way to go about doing this ..

create a watermark that fades into my videos 20 or so seconds in, then fades out after another 10 seconds.
Here's what I've done so far in Flash CS4:
- Import Video
- Pointed the "player" to an external URL for the video.
- Selected a generic Skin
The video plays well, all is in order.
Now, to add a watermark to the player. I figured you'd simply import the new animated SWF file, then write some Actions to tell it when to fade in and fade out. Not that I know how to do that at all .
I'd even be up for other options, if this simply won't work I've thought of pushing all my videos through a third-party program to brand the video with an animated watermark, is there such a thing?

I created 5 swfs (simple, short animations) The swfs are named "movie1," "movie2," and so on. I want to import all 5 movie clips and thread them together so that they play one after the other inside the timeline of a new Flash Document. I am hoping to have "movie 1" play, stop, have "movie 2" play, stop and so on until the 5th "movie plays then stops (no looping necessary). It will be played on a Mac laptop and not online.
I've been fiddling with timeline actions for 2 days and can't figure how to lead one movie to the other. I've been using Action Script 2 so far. What I've done is create 5 layers (1 for each clip)
"movie1" is on layer 1, frame 1
"movie2" is on layer 2, frame 2
"movie3" is on layer 3, frame 3
"movie4" is on layer 4, frame 4
"movie5" is on layer 5, frame 5

I have a client who wants me to create a flash presentation (interactive - non-video) and they want the presentation to contain a standard seekbar and volume control at the bottom (as you would see when watching a video) but in my case these controls will not be controlling a video, they will instead allow you to scrub through the playback timeline and control the volume of audio in the timeline.
