Windows :: Flash - How Does YouTube Prevent The Screensaver From Showing Up During Video Playback
Oct 9, 2011
I have noticed that mi screensaver doesn't start while I'm watching videos on YouTube.I'm using Windows 7.This is the test:Set Windows screensaver to 1 minute.Browse to YouTube and play a video longer than 1 minute; ideally much longer.Note that your screensaver doesn't come up after the specified time (1 minute).I've tested using Firefox, Chrome and IE8. My Flash Player version is 10.3. (Youtube is using flash to play the videos). The same happens whether I watch the video in full-screen or not.

I have successfully embedded the youtube video in my flash code with:
//create area to put youtube video on screen
this.createEmptyMovieClip("reason1_video", 10000);
reason1_video._xscale = 60;
reason1_video._yscale = 60;
this.reason1_video.loadMovie("[URL]");
However, the video plays with black bars on top and bottom even though it plays without those directly from youtube: [URL]. Even if I take off the scaling, it still has the black bars. How do I get rid of them? It seems like youtube uses a different player than flash. [URL]. Click on #1 and you will see the video I am talking about.

I'm searching a solution to play a HTML 5 Video and show different images (or similar) on various points (e.g. min 2:15) in the video.
Is this even possible or I should rather use Flash?

Is 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).

I want to watch videos from YouTube at a faster playback rate. A while back I asked if there is a utility that can speed up video playback. The only thing that was mentioned was some closed source project for Windows. I'm not a fan of either Windows or closed source.
Another answer mentioned that you can download videos from YouTube and play them back. Unfortunately, this no longer seems to work. I tried several Firefox addons and they all fail to download. So, now I think I need to build something myself. I see two options:
Create an addon to Firefox that allows me to change the playback speed of the video as it is playing. Find an open source code alternative to Adobe's flash player and update the source code to have a variable rate of playback of sound and video.

I have a problem when one B.swf file is loaded to another A.swf file.A.swf file size is 400x400.B.swf file size is 100x100.B file has a movie clip (MC) which is animated and position of this movie can be from Y:-100 to Y:200. B file is loaded into the center (X:150, Y:150) of the A file.When B file is loaded, then animation starts. I have a problem: I can see animated movie clip B out of B screen scope (for example: when B.swf file movie clip has _y = -100 I still can see that movie clip in A.swf). I am expecting that movie clip will not be shown if Y position becomes negative

by following a tutorial on [URL], I was able to display a youtube video in flash, but the problem is that the video doesn't have a control menu. Just wondering if there is a way to make one, either it is customized or some default menu provided by youtube or flash.

In 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 am using Flash Professional 8 and Dreamweaver 8 to maintain a website. I have just started using flash to show video highlights from high school football games which I record. Using iMovie I export the video as quicktime file and then import to flash to convert to a flash video file to post on the web site. The video coming out of iMovie has very good contrast and the quicktime movie has the same good contrast. When looking at the file in Flash the contrast changes dramatically. I becomes washed out. I am using Max OX 10.6 operating system.

I load external .swf files by code
ldr[nr][1][j2] = new Loader();
ldr[nr][1][j2].load(urlReq);
and about 3 seconds (by extra Timer script) after they're completely loaded are added to stage with
obj[nr][1][j2].addChild(ldr[nr][1][j2])
It all works properly, no problems at all. But by the time the .swf files are added as children to stage they've already animated 3 seconds of their own timeline so appear to "not start from the beginning of the animation".Any way I can prevent that in a simple way? (without requiring access / editing / recreating the loaded .swf or its .fla files)

I was making a player which calls videos from youtube and displays it in my flash playback component. The script loads the videos fine but when i want the flash to load the same video ID from an external XML data source, it loads the youtube player API but not the video. Here is the code
Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com");
Security.allowDomain("*");
var my_player:Object;
var my_loader:Loader = new Loader();
my_loader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
[Code] .....
This script loads the video from youtube.com with an specific ID which i have defined at
my_player.cueVideoById("53OyPYa7SEI",0)
Later I defined and XML file called "videos.xml" where I passed the youtube link and tried to call the video from that xml file in flash. But the problem comes there. Here is the xml code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<videos>
<VIDEO url="[URL]" id=1/>
<VIDEO url="[URL]" id=2/>
</videos>
How to call the video from an XML file?

In the cosmicpanda update for youtube, you can go from a video page to the video creators profile page while your video is still playing in flash. Does anyone how Youtube accomplishes this? I would like to know if it's possible to keep the flash state of a site constant while moving from page to page on a site.It doesn't seem as if the flash is reloading, so I don't think that they are just saving cookies for the current video time and starting the video at that point when they refresh.I would assume that they're using ajax, but the application of this feature is really clean. The URL gets correctly changed to the users' profile page's URL. The back button still works as it should. (I can press back and forward between video page and user profile page and the video continues going clean and never drops.)

what is wrong to this code?
header('Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash');
$video_id = $_REQUEST['id'];
$content = readfile("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=$video_id");
echo $content;
Why this code is not working? How should look the code? i've edited like this:
header('Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash');
$video_id = $_REQUEST['id'];
$content = readfile("http://www.youtube.com/v/$video_id");
echo $content;
and if i get http:[url]...in browser it works but if i add it in jwplayer it doesn't work?
