I need to change the text that is output when the JWPlayer encounters an error and states "Video not found or access denied:filename.flv". I'm wondering if this is at all possible by passing through parameters to the embed object?
I have search all forum, but didn't find any good example with sources of as3/css/js integration. I need that swf could send itself dynamic height's value through javascript and css (div). Or, as last hope, to another swf with redirectiong to another page.
I want to open a file dialog via FileReference.browse() but I get #2176 error which means that this action can only be invoked upon some user interaction. I'm aware of security considerations but in my scenario I have a thin flash movie which merely displays an image and the whole UI is in javascript (I heavily use javascript <-> actionscript communication).
So the question is - do you think it would be possible to invoke FileReference.browse() upon the user interaction coming from javascript?
Is there anyway to export JSON data to CSV/Excel without any interaction with the server side? Using Javascript only? or Flash? I'm currently using ZeroClipboard to copy the value into the clipboard but I'd like to open directly the generated value into Excel from the browser (FF, Chrome, IE, etc...).
The player loads a flv video file seeon.flv from another domain.Currently, even without a crossdomain.xml in the server where seeon.flv is located, the video is loaded fine.This is not the behavior I want or expect it to be.I also tried putting a crossdomain.xml with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"> <cross-domain-policy> <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="none"/> </cross-domain-policy>
From firebug, I could see that there's a request to the crossdomain.xml before accessing the video file (seeon.flv).It returns the content fine , with the Content-type of application/xml, but it still allow the cross domain behavior.
I have a flash file which is 690 x 420 pixels. When I export it and set it up to play on jwplayer it shows with all of the pieces that are off the art board also.This is a test [URL].
The client complains that sometimes on initial load, the jwplayer will autostart playback as intended but with a black screen. Sound is alright, and the progress indicator in the transport is moving.No matter what I do, I can't recreate the error on my machine.I'm using version 5 of JWPlayer.
Here is the code i use to embed: <script type="text/javascript" src="/Frontend/Javascript/swfobject.js"></script> <div id="mediaspace"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
I'm using jwplayer in html tabs in IE with jqery showing and hiding them (via style:hidden;) When I hide a tab in IE and then show it again the plays video area goes blank (you can still hear sound and play/pause the video). Does anyone know why this is happening or have a way to fix it.
I've got a Flash video that takes a very long time (30 seconds+) to load, which is obviously frustrating for users. I'm using the JWPlayer to embed the video.Flash experts (which is not me), what am I doing wrong? Or is the video file too big/server too slow? I've tried embedding in various ways (direct embed, swfobject) without change.I notice it does sometimes play right away on load, but I'm not sure if this is because at that time, the Flash video is cached in my browser.
I'm using JWPlayer to serve an html5 video with a flash fallback.I'd also like to have an image fallback if there is neither html5 nor flash support but I can't see how to do this.
I am trying to get some javascript to work in Flash. However, nothing seems to be happening. I tested the exact code in html and it seems to work fine (calls the image). Is there some setting in Flash that enables this. here is the code:
I use jquery.flash() plugin to embed flash into my website. The problem is that in IE6 this doesn't work. I tried swfobject (1.5), also, but it gives me (sometimes) some strange errors with n null or something like that, so I decided to use jquery.flash() also. (I use both swfobject and jquery.flash() now)
So, basically, swfobject works but gives me that strange error sometimes (all browsers), so NOT all my flash banners work, and jquery.flash() WORKS in all other browsers, except IE6.
I want to implement Open Flash Chart in my website but it doesn't work. The chart just start loading for a second and the loader animation disappear and nothing happening (Only a blank swf area). i've downloaded the latest version which is 2 and here is my folders scheme:
I have avoided adobe products like the plague from when I was developing myself since it costs a fortune to buy and of their products, but big employers love it and pay for it so here I am. Our "Flash" guy just left the team and I inherited this issue. If you read my other post you know what is going on so I will move on. I want to make a simple call from actionscript to my javascript taht is referenced in my other post. I specifically want to call the CheckboxCollection function from inside of actionscript. I don't need to pass it any args or anything of the such from inside of actionscript.
All I need it to do is run that function once the flash is done loading. The javascript function will take care of everything I need, I just HAVE TO HAVE IT called from actionscript to make everything work in harmony. I am in the middle of teaching myself all things adobe and actionscript(much to my dismay), but I really have no clue where top go from here to make this work. I have reviewed adobe documentation, but until I have a better grasp of the language as a whole I am still lost. I copied most of my actionscript on to here, but I did leave out everything that had to deal with mouseover events, since my issue is not about a mouseover and they all work like a charm.
UPDATE: I had to stop working on this to get some other things done, but I am back to step one. NO matter what I do I am having no luck making this work. I have tried all suggestions on here, and tried everything I KNOW how to do, but I am having no luck. If anyone could take a look at this post and the one that I link to (It is the companion javascript for this) and see if they can come up with anything. I have tried so many different iterations of my code there is no use putting all of my trials up for example of what doesn't work,
/* JavaScript External Calls */ function RegisterExternalCalls():void { if(ExternalInterface.available)
I'm trying to use getURL to open a new window that will have a specified size.I downloaded Macromedia's own tutorial/sample code for how to do this using javascript and cannot get it to work.
Here's their code:
on (release) { getURL("javascript:openNewWindow('http://www.macromedia.com','thewin','height=400,width=400 ,toolbar=no,scr ollbars=yes') "); }
[URL]
Nothing happens when I click their button. I tried changing the target, still nothing. I also tried it in Safari and in Firefox with FF's popup blocker turned off. Nothing.
I know I've discussed this here in the past, but I can't find back that thread.This javascript code works on the Firefox browser itself, but won't work from within a SWF file.
I have a flash player with an external javascript interface: reloadData() I'm calling that function via Javascript when editing information on the page - basically to keep data on the page and in the player in synch. The reloadData() function works fine when the player is hosted locally. When we move it to the CDN (Amazon Cloudfront), the player loads successfully, but the external javascript interface no longer works - console.log(player) reveals the following:
<object type=,"application/x-shockwave-flash" data="[our_cloudfront_url].swf" width="920" height="404" id="player" style="visibility:visible;"> Uncaught TypeError: Object #<an HTMLObjectElement> has no method 'reloadData'
I know there are a lot of things that behave differently when working with items on a CDN, but we're using a CNAME to point to the cloudfront distribution (buildid.ourdomain.net => distributionid.cloudfront.net)
We have a flash game embedded in a web page (using SWFObject v2.2) and there are some links on the page that call into the flash in the following manner:
window.document["flashObjectId"].flashMethod();
This has worked great on all browsers we have tried including IE7 and 8, however on IE9 it generates the following error: "SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support this property or method".
It does work in compatibility mode so I tried adding a meta tag to tell IE9 to use compatibility mode by default, however that didn't work because our game runs in an IFrame within Facebook.
I have tried referencing the flash object every way I could think of in the Javascript but I always get that same error message in IE9.
nav item consists of a ball that "follows" the cursor in relation to where it is on the page. JS is used to gather the X/Y info from off the Flash stage and create vars to be used by the Flash movie to move the "orb" in relation to the cursor position. For some reason, FF and Chrome on PC fall short here.I've tried everything from setting the Flash movie to "opaque" and positioning a transparent DIV over it, all to no avail.Any thoughts on this? Has anyone encountered something like this?
I had a somewhat weird setup for a site here, which goes as follows: Server A holds a SWF Server B holds a HTML document with the SWF Embedded, along with SwfAddress.js I can't seem to get any Flash-to-javascript to work here through External Interface calls. SwfAddress fails and I see this error in Firebugs Console: "Error calling method on NPObject!" This also occurs with another JS function I'm trying to call with the MouseWheel. I've set up my crossdomains and deployed all Security.allowDomain("")'s where applicable. Has anyone embedded an external SWF and had issues with AS-JS communication before??
Url...For some bizarre reason, the videos will play at 3x speed on the first run through, but then will play at normal speed each subsequent play. This doesn't happen all the time, and it's not always the same video(s) that do it. I'm utterly baffled. I've reconverted the videos from m4p to flv (using BitComet's converter) several times, double checking the settings each time through with no change to the behavior.
I'm having an issue extending a class in the JWPlayer API, but I think it's probably more of an issue of the way I'm extending the class in AS3 rather than the class itself. Here is the code:
All three of the final functions do not return values even though I have event listeners only calling those values one Event.COMPLETE (of the loaded SWF that contains this script).
I've been trying to teach myself flash for a couple of weeks and am totally lost. I have had experience with programming in the past, so I understand logic, etc, but I really am not grasping this forced time based system.What I need to do seems pretty simple. I have a jpg of a washing machine front panel. I need to be able to put some transparent "buttons" over it, and have some areas "light up" when the buttons are pressed. So far I understand that I have to work in a chronological setup, with key frames for each state of interaction, and use buttons with some kind of gotoframe action script. what I can't do:
1. get the background jpg to stick to the stage. it apparently has to be either a symbol or a layer?
2. make transparent buttons. in flash catalyst I can just set the opacity to 0, but I'm not sure how to do this in flash pro.
I guess those are the pressing issues. I had tried to import the jpg as a psd background, but then I had to put the button on a separate layer, and it was always either behind the background, or I had to have it's action refer only to the timeline of it's own layer and not the background.
I am looking at taking on a project that will be a considerable challenge since I come from a LAMP development environment. I am wanting to create a Flash driven community with chat and profiles. In PHP I know how I would go about handling the data as everything is put together on the server and returned to the user completely formatted, however adding a flash layer on top of it present a problem. I am not sure how to transport data from the server to a flash file without using XML. The obvious problem that I see is as more people are online, Sending updated XML files to flash could become a bandwidth hog and make for a slow UI. best method of moving result data from a PHP script to Flash without using XML or is that going to be the only viable option? My concern is load time. Also is there a good way of unloading data once it is no longer used (ie Photos).
I have a video embedded in Flash as an FLV. I'm able to get the video to play through the way I want, but when the video plays through and ends, I want to have two options/"buttons" display that allow the user to either replay the video a la youtube, or link to another web page.
I know it must a very basic question but I can't seem to find any answers. I've included a screen capture of the end of the video.
I wish to be able to use a Flash animation (call it "one.swf, loaded into "one.html"") as a control panel to control the activities in another animation (say "two.swf" which of course will reside in "two.html")The control panel ("one.swf") will have 10 buttons for the navigation around "two.swf" and "on release" of the butons, I would like for BOTH 1. the navigation in "two.swf" to happen AND 2. "one.swf" to be (preferably) minimised or else closed.What sort of coding is needed to enable this interaction between the two swf files?here will be a button on "two.swf" which will be used to call up "one.swf", but presumably the coding there will need to be different if "one.swf" is minimised to how it is if it is closed. Whilst I can hack opening "one.swf" from fresh if it has been closed, how do I code the button to restore it from being minimised?
I created a huge flash application and I need it to interact with an ASP file that interacts wiht a database. But when i loadvars in flash it take a very very long time to load. My guess is that becaus there are sooo many variables, passing them all takes a long time. Is there anyway I can pass only a few variables or speed up the process?
We are live streaming to iphone/ipad and jwplayer for desktops. We have used adobe encoder and wirecast and with both products if we stop and then restart a stream, the iphone/ipad receives a short loop of the old stream instead of what is currently playing. The only way we can make it play the live video is to stop the encoding, then clear the stream files from the server, inside the stream package, and then start the stream again. Is there some setting that is causing this behavior?
