My mission is to embed a video (custom player) into a facebook wall and track the users events (play count etc.), also gather other relevant data. I was wondering is this at all possible, if so, can you comment on that briefly?

How do I add a widget to Facebook wall? So when a user clicks on wall post, it gets opened there only, like YouTube video/audio.
It's certainly possible, as Slideshare app [URL] does it.
And, I see that it's a Flash component. I have an iframe (Javascript/html) widget.
Is posible to build a site like youtube, that when is shared in facebook users can run the app (in this case the video player) in the user wall without enter to the youtube page. if is posible, this is only for videos?... can i get an interactive app, like a game do the same. this can be only achieved using flash? or there is any way to do it using HTML5?
View 1 RepliesI'd like to gain read only access to the following parameters of embedded Flash videos located on sites that I do not own through my own custom browser extension/add-on:
Time location of playback head (so I can display the current time in the browser extension via HTML5/JavaScript) Frames (so I can make capture them to an image file, save it and display image in browser extension) Original Dimensions in pixels (so I can display the original video dimensions via JS/HTML5 in browser extension)
Is this possible by using Javascript and HTML5 from a browser extension?
Would I have to use something like the SWFObject Javascript API [URL]
I got myself an assignment which requires me to add buffering and few other video related functions to a flash file that uses embedded video( on the timeline).
this swf is about 30-40Mb in size and it loads quite a while.
what i need to do is to detect when the video stops playing, runs out of buffer, but i dont know how do i listen to the netstream events if there is no netstream on embedded video.
I'm writing an app for Android using Adobe AIR 3.0 and facebook action script 3 sdk to enable user social experience. I can't call facebook methods using ExternalInterface, so I have to make all request using GRAPH api. [URL]
So, working with this SDK, provide me with code example how can I post to users wall (text + URL link + image) using:
1) app requests
2) streamPublish.

View 1 RepliesIn the comments of this question, users have commented that it's possible to insert a Flash applet into a Facebook wall post. I was under the impression this isn't possible without making a FB app.
I'm aware that FB will convert links to various media types - e.g. a link to a MP3 becomes automagically a SWF MP3 player, but the Flash applet used is chosen by FB's internal logic, not by the content of the post. Is it possible to embed a SWF applet of your own choosing?
As I haven't been able to find any documentation on this, has anyone else? Or, do you have some PoC code that does this?
I'm absolutely new to programming and just managed to learn the basics of ActionScript 3. Now, I would like to learn how to post on my Friends' Walls via the as3 SDK using the UI class (taken from a nice Tutorial):

i have made some web pages with flash and my problem is that i want to show a thumb picture in facebook wall when i post there my website in the news tab.
i only found this to add in the index.html (?) after the head :
< link rel="image_src" href="images/logocolor1.jpg"/> (without the space after the < and the picture is inside the images folder)
but didn t work
does it take some tome to show up
or do i have to make something else?
I am creating a game that needs to be integrated with Facebook. The game is done and once the user complets that game it adds the button that send score to the Facebook wall of the user.
I have downloaded the Facebook api for flash and is able to connect to the user and get its id. But I don't know what command to use to post the score or message on users wall via swf.[code]...
Someone have already done this? I have a solution in mind, but I don't tried yet. Before trying i'm wanna know if it's possible.
My solution is just posting a wall into an html page and getting the source of page in Flash and parsing it.
All I want is to have the latest 3 or so posts from my clients Facebook page to populate and animate in a screensaver that I am building using Flash (AS3).
So far, every time I try to bring anything in, it requires a complete oAuth login and account link, but it's only a one way exchange (read-only, absolutely no writing, posting or even linking, since it's a screensaver) I'm not even sure the client wants pictures or anything.
I am currently trying to use the facebook-actionscript-api, but there isn't an option for the "App Login" type of Authentication that would solve most of my problems.
All I really need is to make a post to the Facebook wall of the user from flash movie.Been trying to find any decent tuts for Flash IDE but everything seems to be for Flex mainly.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to determine the practical difference between using the com.facebook.session.WebSession and com.facebook.session.JSSession. The documentation ([URL]) has more around WebSession - but the example I have which is closest to what solution I'm trying to implement uses JSSession and it looks like I could avoid all of the JavaScript pass-through & ExternalInterface calls I'm making. It appears that the benefit of using this new ActionScript Facebook API is to avoid having to make all of the Facebook calls via JavaScript.
View 5 RepliesI have a YouTube video embedded in my page. It is hidden (display:none). You need to click one of the video link buttons to display the video and play it. The links are defined like this:
<a href="javascript:play('xxxxxxxxxxx')">Video 1</a>
<a href="javascript:play('xxxxxxxxxxx')">Video 2</a>
xxxxxxxxx represent YouTube video IDs.
[Code]....
It's fundamentally pretty simple! But here's the problem. since the video player is hidden, the flash object is not activated. So when I click a video link, the line ytplayer.style.display = 'block'; displays the video player, but it takes about about half a second for flash to load. During this time it cannot accept any method calls, such as the next line ytplayer.loadVideoById( id, 0, 'hd1080' );. Essentially, I have to click the link twice, once to load up the flash video player, the second time to actually load the video into the player.

I am designing a music player using JavaScript (jQuery) and HTML5, with Flash AS3 to fall back. Basically what I want to do is to be able to click HTML control elements and have them interact with the flash in order to play/pause and skip tracks in the playlist (playlist JSON file read by JavaScript, passes file ID to AS3, AS3 reads another JSON file to get URL, then plays audio)
This enables me to only use the Flash to play the audio, thus creating the same user experience regardless of HTML5 browser support. I'm assuming I will have to 'listen' for events in AS3, however any pointers in how to engage these events in JS and react to the events in AS3

So how to stop others videos in a Video Wall when clicking another video?
I'm having a video wall, which was created with a for loop so that every i a new VideoPlayer instance was created. The source was inputed through XML.
Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
video = new VideoPlayer(source);
this.addChild(video);
}
When I click the play button the clicked Video is playing great. And when I click another video on the wall it also starts playing. BUT HOW can I stop the other video(s) when another is clicked?
I know I need to kinda get access to the Netstream of all other videos and close them
Code:
netstream.close();
I tried is with a Custom Event inside the VideoPlayer class:
Code:
this.addEventListener(PlayerStopEvent.STOP, stopVideos);
function stopVideos(event:PlayerStopEvent)
{
[Code]....
From the output panel I can see the stopVideoPlayer function is being launched, but I'm guessing it's being launched only in the clicked video not in All videos, even though the code is in the VideoPlayer class.
When I tried using a timer event, to close the netstream after 5 seconds it worked for all videos.
How can I make this work? Or make an event similar to the timer event? Access the netstream for all videos?
I've got a bit of a niche problem, in that I was tasked with making an animation for a 5760px X 1080px video wall. I tossed with the idea of doing a video in after effects instead but then decided the resulting file would be too large and encumbersome so I decided to pursue my other idea which was through flash. Now as you all probably know, maximum dimension for flash is half of what i need, 2880. So i made a half size mock up, got it approved and basically translated that into x3 1920x1080 fla's each containing a 3rd of the total animation, all synced for each other.
Now I need to figure out the best means of playing them together synced fullscreened on the video wall, which has just gone up. We are going to have a content management system that most likely will be able to sync the files but I'd really like the swf's to be able to sync without any help just incase sorta thing.
