View 1 RepliesHow can i play youtube video using SWFLoader?
Currently, i can play only 1 video at a time (suppose its name is A), if i try to play video B it doesnt play it. but if again i play vidoe A, it works.
I need to autoplay youtube video as I click on its thumbnail.Since IE doesn't support <EMBED> tag I need preset all needed values in <OBJECT> and then create a new object with my parameters.So I did something like this:
var $newObject = jQuery('<object><param name="play" value="true"/>' + $oldObject.html() + '</object>'); // preparing virtual object on the fly.
$thisObject.html($newObject.html()); //Creating new object

Try to use SWFLoader (as with what's described here) but this ends up throwing crossdomain violations Use the YouTuve API Ideally use the Spark VideoPlayer component, although I have not been able to figure out how to play a YouTube video through it and am starting to think that it is, in fact, not possible.
My Objective is to play a youtube video in a site which is build in Action Script 3.0. We have developed a site where the client side is completely flash and the back end is managed using php. what we need is to display the youtube vidoes in the client side flash page. Youtube videos can be displayed in html pages using the <object> tag. But in flash is it possible. note: You tube is providing an API, which will work only in sites developed in Action Script 2.0. But we need it to be played in Action Script 3.0. Is there really an API for Action Script 3.0 ?
We have tried to use the API which will work in Action Script 2.0 to communicate with the Action Script 3.0, but it didn't work. We tried the bridging it also did not work. We have also tried in google to find some and we got some links:

I'm working on a website template that includes a video component. I'm assuming I need to use the video object and it only plays actual video files. What if I want to play videos from Youtube? Would I have to download the video and put the video file somewhere where Flash can access it? Like on my computer or uploaded on a server?

I am trying to play a Youtube video in a Flash SWF. I have a button (video_btn) and a black rectangle movie clip (480 x 365) named video_mc. The AS2 I have for video_btn is:
video_btn.onRelease=function(){
createEmptyMovieClip("video_mc",_root.getNextHighe stDepth());
video_mc.loadMovie("http://youtube/.......");
};
This does not seem to be working locally. I did try uploading a test swf to a free swf hosting website but it still does not play the Youtube video.

I am trying to build a Flash banner ad which will be hosted on a site I have no access to. My client would like to have a button which, when clicked, would open a youtube video in a lightbox frame. I've been looking all around, but all I see that seems workable involves my being able to edit the html page. I am trying to do this with AS3 and Javascript. Some solutions involve JQuery, but I am not a JQuery pro.

View 1 RepliesIs there any way I can create a slider on my desktop to access some of the controls of the YouTube Video player like volume, pause, play, playback speed? I know it is a flash player, but would this involve accessing the YouTube API or something else? For example, I'd like to program something similar to what's provided by the Enounce MySpeed application (control over play back speed).
View 1 RepliesI wanted to know if this is possible. On my site I want to play youtube videos from my account from youtube. Basically, there will be an empty text box. Users will type in some text. Click on a button to search and play a random video based off tags associated with a video from my youtube account with the words from the text box? And if they did the same search it wouldn't play the same video again?

View 0 RepliesIn my CS4 flash document I have created a media gallery. It's a very simple interface that has mouse overs on thumbnail pictures, and then the larger picture will fadeUP in the center of the document. (With use of framelabels in the timeline).
In the same document, I want the user to be able to click on a video thumbnail, and that video plays back in the center of the document. Several questions: If the user clicks on the thumbnail "onrelease," the time line goes to the player, is it possible to stream this video from a youtube clip into my media player on the screen? If not and I have the document in a fl4 format, is there a simple process to have this video open? (I currently do not have the document in fl4 format).
I just updated to CS5 - I'm working on a custom video player. It works fine embedded in a web page both locally and on the network. It works fine in the debug player. However, when I test it in the authoring player I get a NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound error and no video. I have tried setting the Local Playback Security publish settings to both local and network - doesn't find the video either way.
It used to run fine in CS4 in the authoring environment.
My flash project is a video player. There are library items and .as files that help compile everything that it needs.I'm experiencing something very strange.Here is what is happening.
1. When I test my movie in flash it works great. The preview image appears, the movie loads quickly, and when I click play on either the big play button or the control bar play button it starts immediately without hesitation.
2. When I compile the video, I can open the generated HTML file with either IE or FF and everything works the same as above - flawlessly. Here is where the problems begin...
3. When I copy the HTML from the generated HTML file and add it to my page where I want my video embedded problems begin! First the preview image and the big play button does not appear until the movie runs and finishes (I click on the play button on the control bar to start the movie in this case). After the movie runs they appear. It's obvious my file paths are not the issue since I see the movie and the preview image (eventually), right?
4. The movie will not load in IE until I click on play, I just see my preloader spinning with 0% loaded showing. That stays until I click on play, and then just like FF at the end of the movie I finally see the big play button and the preview image. I tested in IE 7 & 8.This also can't be a local development issue because I uploaded the files to our server (I'm in an intranet) and saw the same phenomenon occur. I tried different embed/param code found on the net as well hoping that would do the trick, but no luck there either. I'm using flash5 and all standard out of the box setings.
I don't know how you solve the Gamma issues for users using PC and Mac. The thing is I have a video with the flvplayback component. Is it possible to, depending on the OS (the only way that I think of knowing if that person is using PC or Mac), have it pick a video or another (which would be the same but with different Gamma.
View 1 RepliesI created a website in Flash that is suppose to play a video with sound when the site opens. My logo then fades in over the video as it plays. I added the logo on it own timeline. On the web, my logo plays with the fade in effect correctly but the video is missing. The site works fine when I preview it but not on the web.

View 1 RepliesI have a series of videos in the project I am working on and I do not want them to auto play once loaded, I want the user to click the play button to start, how do I do this? I am using AS2 on CS3, the video is on progressive download from the server, I tried a couple behaviors, but none did what I was going for.
View 7 RepliesI'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?
