Professional :: Add Controls To Webpage Video?
Mar 5, 2011
I'm new to Flash and I'm pretty sure this a dumb question that has been asked many times - but go easy on me as I have searched and searched through and just can't find the answer.
I've created my first animation using a set of digital Jpeg photos and I've figured out the code for inserting this into my web page. It works perfectly and I'm very impressed with the quality of the animation and how small the file is. Now I want to add a simple control bar underneath with Stop, Play, Rewind - the usual stuff you get on YouTube, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.

I'm porting in an .flv to Flash for the first time. I created the .flv from an .MP4 using Media Encoder CS5, and then opened a new Actionscript 3 .fla in Flash Professional CS5, clicked File > Import > Import Video. Then selected 'Load external video with playback component'. Everything seems to have imported fine, but when I publish the SWF and import it via Dreamweaver CS5 and preview the page, the video is there, but the controls are not. There's just a white box where the controls should be. Also, the video is out of sync with the audio, which I believe is a problem with Media Encoder, not Flash.
Here are some links:
The page that I'm working on (video at the bottom of the page)
The .FLA
The .FLV
The .SWF

Is there a way to hide the controls on a flash video (flv) until the user scrolls over the video? So the page opens, the video starts playing (still no controls visable) and then when a user scrolls over the video, you then see the controls for the first time. I have searched high and low.

I'm sure this is a simple thing but I haven't been able to find out out to associate an absolute link with video controls.

I need to access and stream flash video stored on a US server. I do so from one of three PCs - all running Windows 7, all with same updates and same version of Flash. Two of them show a given video fine. The third runs the same video but it is clearly truncated on the right and bottom - that is, only part (top left two thirds?) of the video is visible. And two show timecode and the third...doesn't (or its hidden by the truncation). But how can this be? And more importantly, what can I do to make the third PC play streaming video correctly?

My question is how do I incorporate playback controls to a Embedded Video that plays with the timeline? I saw how easy it was to add playback components when you import video externally. I figured that I probably need to start by creating my play back components, but then I need code to tell the swf what to do?

I'm using Flash CS3 v9 on a PC to...
- use File > Import an AVI video and convert it to an FLV video.
- use File > publish to publish it.
- Then upload the four files...
.. MyVideo.flv
.. MyPage.html,
.. MyPage swf
.. AC_RunActiveContent.js
to my website.
Works Great!
My Question: Since Javascript seems to run the .swf file which pays the .flv video... (or some such) Can I use Javascript (or html) to tell when the FLV Video has finished playing... And then automatically call another webpage..

I would like to be able to play my flash video on top of my website, and then disappear once its finished. Just like on the apple website, with the macbook air. This is probably very simple, but I am not sure what it is called!

I am having a problem getting my flash file to work on my webpages. I first converted the original .avi to a .flv format,then I imported the.flv into flash. It has a skin because I wanted the users to be able to stop and pause the video. When I test the file outside of the web page it works fine. The skin file, the .flv and the .swf are all in the same folder. But when i Upload the webpage , the flash does not play online. If i preview in design mode, the flash file plays. Although with out the skin. Now if i open the flash file outside of the webdesign software it opens in a web browser and all works.

I am trying to use Flash CS5.5 to make a flash video.I have successfully used the Media Encoder to take a WVM file and convert it to use in flash..I have choosen a skin to use for playback.My question is that I now want to take the flash video (swf) and the skin (swf) and add it to an exsisting web page I have...(using Dreamweaver)Can anyone tell me how to do this -- since the video and skin are separate swf's?I did try to embed a FLV directly into my webpage and that worked...(the content is all video).

I just created a basic flash file to play a video on my web page and it's taking several minutes to load before it starts playback. I'm using progressive downlaod and the file is in *.mov format and is 84MB in size. At first that seemed large to me for web play back, but I thought it could handle it since I thought the way progressive download works is that it would start playing the first frame right away and progressively play other frames as they download. However, this seems to be downloading the whole file first (or a major part of it) before starting any playback at all.
Is there some kind of setting I'm missing or is my understanding of the download incorrect and the file size is too large? Some vitals: I'm using Flash Pro CS5 - To create my flash file, I used the standard import video wizard and selected the a file that is "on my computer" and "load external video with playback component" and then, I selected one of the standard skins.- To deploy the vidoe on my webiste I have three files:
1) swf file containing the FLV component
2) the swf file related to skin
3) the actual video (84MB, mov file) - Web page includes/embeds reference to swf file

I am building a flash video player with a custom UI, and admittedly I'm not sure exactly what I'm doing. I tried altering a skin, but that always comes out wonky due to whatever coding they use. So I'm altering single video components and putting them in the mc what I want them. It looks great, but the problem is that when video goes to full screen, all of the controls dissappear and I can't figure out how to make them show up. How do I get a movie clip to display on top of the video when it goes to full screen in flash AS3?

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 lots of .swf video files from the past years, and recently have been using the flash video encoder in cs3 to create .flv that adds video controls. I was wondering if there was a way to add video controls like slider, stop, pause, volume, etc.. to .swf video files. I have searched for a .swf converter to .flv format but even though all the marketing says it can do it, none of the ones I have tried can do it.

how to position my video controls. I thought I had it figured out until I moved my video and the controls did not move with it. I tried doing this: video.addChildAt(vidControls, 2); but it keeps barking at me.
Code:
video = new Video();
video.width = 640;
video.height = 360;

I am creating a full screen FLV player and I am using the
Stage["fullScreenSourceRect"] = new Rectangle();
method. The problem is, when I go to fullscreen my video controls are zoomed in as well making them a bit pixelated. I have seen some players like the one on
[URL]
where they achieve full screen video and still keep the controls the same size.

I am not sure how to accomplish what I need. I'm developing an iOS video app. I will package ALL videos with the ipa.I created a net connection and net stream successfully. I'm importing them into an array. They play perfectly. However, I need a way to mask out the main interface. Ideally, I'd like to drop that video into a dynamically called movie clip that has the controls in it. I made one called holder_mc.(There are no controls in it yet.) I cannot seem to get that on screen at the right z-index (not sure if that's the right term). I tried creating an empty movie clip and putting the video in it. That did not work either. This has to be simple.

I'm trying create an expandable banner that when expands plays a video that has play, pause, mute buttons and a seek bar.
I've successfully created the video player and converted it to a symbol and it works when I copy it into other flash files so I know it's the banner that troublesome.
The problem is when I use it in the expanded part of the expandable banner I can't click on any of the buttons. I can see it's working as the video is playing and the seeker bar is moving. It's almost as if there's an invisible button over the top (the hand icon is visible) stopping me from hitting the buttons of the player.
The code for the expanding banner is very simple (see below)
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndStop(2);
}
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndStop(1);
}

I have three videos recorded from different angles of the same subject. As you can see in the attachment, I need to see one video screen with 3 buttons to jump between the different angles. The transition between the videos should be immediate.I thought of loading the videos internally, but they are over the 16000 frames so they will not load properly into Flash - so using .flvs may have to be the only option. I figured if I could get all three videos started at the same time then I could toggle the viability, but how can I get the three videos to start at the same time?

I'm have a flash movie where I let the viewer push a button to load an external SWF-which in itself is a video I converted to SWF. Once it loads via an empty movie clip into the main flash movie how can I add video player controls such as volume on the lower part of the stage of the main movie to control the externally loaded SWF?
