Using Flash FLVPlayback Component With Skin On Facebook
Oct 30, 2010
I'm trying to insert a player on a Facebook Page tab with FBML with fb:swf. I have the following:[code]I can see the video, no problem. It plays inside a FLVPlayback component, which uses a skin (referred by /player/skinName.swf, I tried also the absolute path here). This player works perfectly everywhere else (even on an iframe Facebook application, where it's not inserted using the fb:swf tag, but with object, of course). However, I can't see the skin on the Page tab.

Is it possible when publishing a Flash CS4 file to have the Video swf and the Skin swf be in one swf file? I have a Flash CS4 (AS2) file that has a FLVPlayback Component. When I publish or test movie 2 swfs are output. I need only 1 swf as I am then going to insert this 1 swf into a Captivate 4 project. When I insert the video swf by itself into Captivate 4, I do not have a play bar/skin. If it is not possible to publish as one swf, how I can insert the 2 swfs into a Captivate file and get them to work?

I need to get access to the buttons inside an flvplayback skin. After a bit of googling I've come across several solutions for AS2 but it doesn't seem to function in a similar way. I know skin_mc is a private function of the flvplayer but I can't for the life of me figure out how to access it as an object that retains its properties all I get back is a string with the path to the skin swf.d.

I have been working on modifying an existing FLVPlayback skin. Ideally I would like to have one that uses a counter. The problem is, all the fla's provided for the skins with counters fail to publish/compile correctly. Fla's are here: C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Flash CS5CommonConfigurationFLVPlayback SkinsFLAActionScript 3.0

I have an FlvPlayback skin, which works really well, except the custom button. Basically this button needs to be able to call a function in the parent movieclip (that loaded the FlvPlayback, which in turn loaded the skin).
I am not really a Flash developer, and have not found anything on Google relating to this. It seems like a simple issue, but I just do not have enough knowledge of flash.
How to call a function in the base swf which has a FlvPlayback movieclip, from a custom button in the skin file.

why FLVPlayback isn't working properly in MVC views?I think i narrowed it down to the "hard coded" skin url file not being correct. Where should I put the skin file( e.g.skinOverAllNoCaption.swf)so that flash can find it?Or are there any alternative approaches to somehow setting the skin file dynamically.

I was wondering if there was a way to get the sound from a FLVPlayback component and manipulate it with using a custom volume slider? Within my Actionscript I currently have this code which enables me to control the volume of a MP3:
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
var mysong = new music();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var myTransform = new SoundTransform();
myChannel = mysong.play(0,10);
[Code]...
But Instead of using the MP3 for sound, is there a way to use an FLV's sound instead?

I am creating my own skin for the FLVPlayback component. I coped an existing one, renamed it and made some changes very easily.
However, I want my player to have fewer buttons. I had a go at removing some buttons from the layout_mc but when I published I found that the buttons I had taken out were appearing in the video playback area of the stage (I'm not really surprised it didn't work because the manuels say that layout_mc isn't actually put onto the stage at runtime, its just used for working out where things will go...)
ANyway, how to I successfully delete a button such as the fast forward

A video should be loading to the second pane of this carousel[url]...
But, on some systems, the playback controls, and the video, are not loading. When working correctly, as the swf seems to do on some systems, the video is covered by a movie clip of the first frame, and then a play button is loaded atop the image. When a user clicks the play on the skin controls or the button that has been loaded on top of the video, the image and button are moved off the stage and the video plays.[code]...

I am trying to set a custom skin URL on an FLVPlayback object. The object is on the stage named vid. When I have the following code: vid.skin = '[URL]'; I get the following error when debugging in the CS5 IDE: Error #1014: Class fl.video::UIManager could not be found When publishing the file to an SWF it "dies" (it stops video playback) at exactly the same point. There is no error message or other indication of what happens in the browser. The flash still seems to work, it responds to ExternalInterface events. It just refuses to play the video. I'm using FLVPlayback 2.5.0.26 with Flash Pro 11.0.2.489 on Win7 64-bit.
How do I fix this? If I comment out the video.skin assignment then the video plays great (except there are no play/pause controls). But when I try to set it I get this internal Flash error. Incidentally if I assign vid.skin = 'invalid/url' then it doesn't die, instead it gives me a warning that the skin cannot be found. The valid.swf url is a copy of the MinimaFlatCustomPlayBackSeekCounterVolMuteFull.swf skin that comes with CS5.

I am working in CS5/AS3 with an FLVPlayback component and a pre-made skin with some custom colors. It is a skin with the caption button included (SkinUnderAll to be exact). I'm using Timed-Text files for the caption content. The captions work just fine. All other buttons on the skin show up, but the toggle button isn't showing up.
I checked all of the linkage in the skin's FLA, checked the AS that creates the FLVPlayback and FLVPlaybackCaptioning objects. All seems fine there.
I've checked the paths and SWF locations to be sure all are in the right places.
I've also included a SKIN_LOADED event listener to get around the default captions-on issue. I'm just not seeing what the issue is. I'd prefer to not go back through my code and make a custom control panel with button components. Started this in CS3 and moved the file to CS5, so I'm not sure if there's something I overlooked in the documentation that spells this out.

I want to play a video, for it I decided to use a FLVPayback with a skin, and it works very well when I test it in Flash CS4, also when i called it from my server with the "network access" only preference. But when i embeded into a html... it plays the video but the skin doesīt shows up.
here is my code:
package

I have developed a video player using Flash 8 Professional and the FLVPlayback component. Recently I have been testing a few 720p .mov files converted to FLV by FFMPEG running on an encoding server. I am noticing that these files do not play back in my video player. It appears that they do not have any audio attached to them but when I play them in Adobe Media Player the audio is there.
Is this due to the FLVPlayback component in Flash 8 not supporting HD videos? When I test locally the video picture plays with no sound but when I run in a browser the video freezes and does not play. The progress bar appears to move as if the video is playing however.

Everything I've tried so far with a FLVPlayback component to seemlessly loop a progressively-downloaded 15 second video has failed. There's always a split-second pause when it's time to loop. For the scenario, embedding video in a flash project is not an option, and the split-second pause is unacceptable. I've tried setting autorewind to true and handling autorewind event fired by FLVplayback. I've tried watching the playhead of the flvplayer for when It gets upwards of 99.5 percent done and seeking to 0. My latest solution involves having two VideoPlayer instances with the same source behind the FLVPlayback component and toggling between them when it's time to loop, and there is still a seem between the end and beginning. I've tested the video in quicktime to make sure it's not an artifact of the video.

We have a huge project written in AS2 with the old FLVPlayback component which was responsible for progressive download playback of FLVs. I'd like to support MP4 files (which is now supported in Flash 9 and up with the updated FLVPlayback) but would like to not have to rewrite all of the project.I've seen in various posts on SO surmised that one could possibly use CS4 to open the AS2 project, replace the FLVPlayback component with newer one and build.

I'm using a FLvPlayBack component and I have the skin setting set to none. I've dragged a PlayPauseButton from my library to my stage in a movieclip. The button pauses and plays the video, but now what i want to do is mimic the "autohide" feature in a normal skin.how i might accomplish this?

I'm using the same FLVPlayback component to play many page transition videos throughout a large flash site I'm building. On each transition, I'm setting the component's source using myFLVPlayback.source and listening for the fl.video.VideoEvent.READY event before proceeding with each page transition. This works fine as long as the transition between every pair of pages uses a different video.
Unfortunately, I'm running into a problem when the same page-to-page transition video needs to get invoked for two consecutive transitions. When playing the same video twice in a row, setting the source property of the component to the value it already has doesn't seem to do anything, meaning that my listeners for fl.video.VideoEvent.READY never fire. I could do something hackish like setting the source to a tiny, never-used-elsewhere FLV before setting it to the FLV that I'm actually using for the transition as a means of "resetting" the component, but I'd like to know what best practices are in a situation like this (insofar as best practices with something like the FLVPlaybackComponent can be discussed with a straight face).
I've perused the livedocs for the component but came up empty-handed, and manually using NetStream, NetConnection, and Video objects at this late stage isn't really an option.

I'm currently building an application using the Adobe Facebook API and I've run into an issue where for the login method the Facebook login popup displays but when doing a Facebook share/post the popup is blocked.
This code works fine and displays me a Facebook login popup without question (Firefox):
var permissions:Array = ['publish_stream'];
Facebook.login( onFacebookLogin, { perms:permissions.join(',') } );
However, the following code running in the same application throws up a popup blocker (again Firefox):
Facebook.ui( "stream.publish", "popup", params );
Does anyone know of a work around this issue to make the share popup come up just like the login popup?
