The video in my .swf does not play when I copy from one server to another. I do see the skin but it just displays a scrolling timeline bar and no video. I have checked the source parameter in the component inspector and that seems to be fine.
View 5 RepliesIn code I use this before URLLoader (swf will be used with many different domains and this will be changing in time):
Security.allowDomain("*");
In http:[url]...., I have this for test:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<cross-domain-policy>[code].........
I used [url].... to create access for any domain (for test) and copied it directly into file server and also test if [url].... is accessible. I checked flashlog.txt and found that [url].... is loaded but will be ignored because of its syntax error - its generated by crossdomainmaker website and also correct with specifications and examples over internet, so what can I do?
brand new to cs4. Created a short swf file with video clip, playback component under the clip, and small gray box around it. Plays fine locally. Copy swf, html, f4v to server and the gray box shows up and the player component shows up, but no video plays. Just have s white/green striped image running where the time indicator in the playback component shows up. Have earlier version of Flash running on server fine (created through 3rd-party). Server is Windows Server2003, running IIS6. Mime types include:

View 2 RepliesI need to play videos stored on a web server from a web browser.
I was thinking of using Flash to achieve this. I found this article [URL]
Is there a better approach? Also when the video is playing or is paused, I'd like to be able to read the current time of playback from the browser (I guess through Javascript). Would Javascript be able to retrieve this time from the flash player?
I did a bit of search without success to find if anything like this was answered before.Sorry for asking a silly question, I am a newbie and hence maybe missing something obvious.I used the Encoder to create the flv file and embedded the file in the timeline and the swf file plays the video just fine locally. For some reason, it's not playing after I uploaded it to the server. I did copy over all the files (swf)s) & flv). It's a very small video and I can't even see the video(just blank) while running the swf file after uploading the files on to the server. All other frames are working as expected.

View 8 RepliesHow can I tell after issuing a NetStream::play call when there is any video arrived which I can render (Video::attachNetStream)? I can see that most of that stuff is asynchronous and highly dependent on a number of variables like FMS latency, client latency and bandwidth, server load, weather etc. I however need a reliable dependent way of figuring when there is any picture to show. I administrate our service and need to monitor content people are publishing, for that I need to browse a hundre or so streams as fast as possible. What I do is I have a number of "player" streams that play a stream name (I use Administration API to get an array of these) , wait until there is picture, show it in a video object, disconnect video from stream, create new video object, play another stream, wait until picture, show it, and so on.
I found out that I can achieve a way to check whether video has arrived by NetStream::info.videoBufferByteLength, alternatively perhaps 'videoByteCount'. I cannot create a new stream for new video object, that is too much overhead, so I reuse streams. I close a stream, play new stream name, and wait until the either of the properties above is non zero. This has been working quite alright, but still occasionally I get stale data in the subsequent video objects, even when a stream is supposed to be playing new content. I need to avoid these.
So my question boils down to the already mentioned: what would be a reliable way to do what I am doing? It's just a stream of compressed data, there must be a way for Flash Player to know what is new data and what is stale data. In fact I don't think there is supposed to be stale data in a NetStream that is already playing something else! I know this is hardcore stuff, but we are pushing it :-)
I just had a very bad user experience here: [URL] The Loading... text appears every 1 second. Is it possible to buffer all the video content before playing it? Or at least a portion of the video content when playback, and at the same time display the percentage of video content loaded?
View 21 RepliesWe are using FMS3.5 for VOD streaming. It's spotted that when we are using Flash Player Version = WIN 10.0.42.34/10,0,45,2, it is encountered that the video picture is hang but audio keeps playing after our commercial break point. we will first pause the video content and then use the same object to play the instream ad. After that, the video is resume when instream ad complete.
View 1 RepliesMy video files are not playing progressively off the host server. They do in simulate download: Here's the code for one simple module that plays 3 different f4v's on radio buttons. In theory they should stream progressively in a flvplayback instance called qualtestplayer when a radio button is pushed. But they fully download before starting to play.

I have this sample code from the e-book: "Learning Flash Media Server 3". The purpose of the code is to create a FLV. The code is not running as it should. When I click on the 'record' button, the label is to change to 'recording', that dosen't seem to happen and also when I click on the 'Stop Record' button, I get the following error:
"TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at MinRecord/stopRecord()"
[Code]....
My deduction is that the 'if' statement in the 'startRecord' function is not resolving to 'true' and hence the label is not changing to 'Recording'. Also I feel that the assingment to the variable 'ns' of type NetStream is not being done and hence in the function 'stopRecord' I get the above mentioned error message when I click on the stop button. How do I rectify these problems?
I have created an swf where I can record the webcam picture as H264 video to a FMS 4.5 (I am using the developer version).My code is looking like this:
var h264Settings = new H264VideoStreamSettings();
h264Settings.setProfileLevel("baseline", "1.2");[code]....
I can then replay the video from FMS just fine, but if I try to copy the video from the FMS application directory into a local project and try to play the video with the FLVPlayback component, or with the Adobe Media Player, it is not playing at all.Is this to be expected? Can't I record a webcam video with FMS in H264 and use that video later without FMS?

View 2 RepliesI suppose the title says it all. I can load an external video file (FLV) and I can have it play. I also have the custom buttons made to control the clip. The only thing I have left to do is to have the main timeline move onto frame 2 once the external video reaches its end. I am using actionscript 3 and flash cs 5.5.
View 7 RepliesI've been using the "Reusable Preloader Using MovieClipLoader" from the tutorial section of this site.The only difference is that i don't use'm for preloading jpg. I load external swf files containing video. Everything works fine so far. The only problem is that the preloaded video already starts playing while preloading (at about 30%), but without showing the video.This is the code i have so far:
Code:

border._visible = false;

I built a timeline based player with 2 menus and many videos that you can play.The buttons move the timeline to a frame label and the video plays. The back button has a stop function built in it so the video stops playing when its hit.It plays wonderfully locally but once on a server after a few clicks it boggs down and sometimes the audio from the last video remains playing even when prompted to stop. I was pointed to use the add and remove child functions to prevent this but being very new to Flash and 100% self taught i have zero idea on how to do this. The link to the player is[url]....Even if its a link to a tutorial or something.

I try to switch or change a server-side stream, it starts lagging after 2 seconds of playing and sound disappears. Here are scenarios that result in that terrible lag:
1. I create server-side playlist with stream.play() with reset=false; when it is time to play the next movie in the playlist, it starts lagging after 2 seconds.
2. The same problems appears when I just switch streams. I installed FMF Feature Explorer and tried to launch SwitchStreams sample application: the same problem - server stream starts lagging after I switch streams with stream.play().
I tried on different servers (local and remote), with different players (debug player of FMS Admin Console, Standard Flash videoplayer component, OSMF player, Flex video player). I also tried all possible flv, f4v and mp4 file compression options for video files - still the same problem. I have also tried literally thousands of Application.xml settings: changing buffer, buffer ration etc. Is there any tip where I should search for a solution?
Is it possible to host my /media/ directory on a different server (that has more space) and have FMS Link to it to player VOD ?

I am trying to put together a class for playing video using the Video object. So far, I have only been successful in getting the Video object to fully work when not using a class setup. In the documentation, I have read that to use the Video object you have to actually drag/create the video object onto the stage. So, in my next attempt, I created the video object onto the stage within a MovieClip but still trying to use a class/linkage setup with the Video inside inside of a MovieClip container. No luck there either. Here is the basic AS2 script that is linked to a MovieClip that contains the Video object ("video" instance) within it.
Code:
class VideoTest {
private var nc:NetConnection;
private var ns:NetStream;

I am getting the following error with this script.
Code:
Line 14: There is no property with the name 'video'.
Line 15: There is no method with the name 'video'.

View 10 RepliesI am able to drag a copy of an object and drop it on the canvas, using drag-drop manager functionality in Flex.
The original object remains unchanged and a new copy of the object is created. However, If i further want to drag this copy and position it differently on the canvas, I find that the object is not draggable.
Since this copy is created at runtime, I am not sure how I can achieve to drag it? [code]...
I am developing a word game using flashDevelop . the game is working fine when I compile and run using flashdevelop and it also working fine when I directly open [swf] file from the source [bin] folder. But the problem is when I try to copy and open [swf] file from other than original location its not working. I have also tried to copy the whole bin directory but that also not working.

What am I doing wrong?
