• Custom using netStream video player not working not

  I have problems playing movies using the flash in a way that is not sinking tons of memory (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/851908). So, I tried to build my own, but I can't allow him to play anything... What don't I get on the netStream working with the VideoDisplay?

  Any help?

  Here is the code for the component. I hope there is nothing odd about that. I have included my contact information at the top. Please send me an email me or Adobe PM if you have questions or comments about this code. Hope this helps someone. It took me a good while to tinker until I found this.

  You can also find this useful if you do not need to completely rebuild the component. http://bryanheisey.com/blog/?p=21

  /* The built-in video display object would not work for our purposes, because it would leak enormous amounts of memory (in the order of 200-300MB) every time a new
   * video was loaded in and played. It was almost as though it retained all previous videos played in memory, rather than replacing the video it had loaded.
   * After farther investigation, I believe it had to do with the fact that s:VideoDisplay discards the source and videoGateway, and creates a new one, meaning that
   * garbage collection has to get in there and fix it. However it doesn't unless RAM is also being lost in enough little chunks, so...it never cleaned up.
   * This is the first attempt to fix that, by directly manipulating the netStream, and streaming the video, rather than loading it in as was happening in s:VideoDisplay.
   * I have, however, followed the structure that was presented in s:VideoDisplay provided by Adobe in the Flex 4.0.1 framework as far as where events and public functions
   * and so forth are declared. This video player uses a lot of code and ideas from s:VideoDisplay and the player described at
   * http://www.flashwebdesigns.com.au/index.php/2010/07/custom-flex-4-spark-videodisplay. More details of what this actually is found right above the constructor. */

• Creation of video player?

  Hello everyone, I am creating a video player using flash and action script 3

  My questions are:

  -How do I create overlay button play/pause on video?

  -How can I make click anywhere on the video to play/pause?

  Thanks for the help and suggestions!

  Well to become proficient in NetStream, you will visit "the road traveled less. Most people opt for the FLVPlayback quick and easy... not AS involved.

  Again in the section Forum Adobe Flash:

  http://forums.Adobe.com/community/Flash

  Also, all the links I posted earlier have sections of the Forum, but also tutorials. Pay them a visit.

  BECAUSE 1 is way outdated, AS2 is still used a lot, but is endangered. AS3, much more powerful, will happen in the future. If you start from scratch, go with AS3... a lot of command and control for NetStream.

  Best wishes

• aid is the development of components for the AS3 video player

  Hi all

  I'm looking for a video player that

  can be resized at design time with should stretch controls (play, pause

  button, volume seekbar controls full button screen etc.)

  I found the same

  kind of player in AS2.0 here. The best part is that it can be resized in the design

  should have stretch of time with its controls.

  emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/

  You may have already looked at this but, you can use a flvplayback component that has no controls and then add the controls that you are interested in individually to the scene. You can then size and position the control components you want and then use Actionscript to connect each component control for the flvplayback component.

• Do not use a video player live dynamic streaming

  Need help! I am non-developers and don't have Adobe flash programming skills. I want Live dynamic streaming to FMS. I see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/live_dynstream_dvr.html . But the white poster sample player.

  I use Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2, Adobe Flash Media interactive Server 3.5.3 and sample file "live_dynstream_dvr.zip.

  1. I put my OUT and set the url of the FMS and stream name

  

  2. I followed connection in fms_console.htm

  

  3 run DVRController

  

  4. I have set up and play the video with livedvr

  

  but my video player is white poster

  

  5. in my connection to see the 3 fms_console.htm

  

  Help, please... Thanks a lot...

  Hello

  Please try the FMS and DVR.

  A few quick points, I suggest you to try to make things are as follows:

  1. ensure that the records are produced as soon as you start the DVR/Streaming. Go to the directory\applications\dvrcast_origin\streams\_definst_\ FMS installation folder and see if you can find three currents with the names you gave while starting the DVR. Ensure that flows are increasing their size, confirming the registration of the data on the disk. The DVR feature expects and needs to save to disk files. If in any case, you cannot find the files being saved, you will need to double check your water course names!

  2. for the purpose of simplicity, I would recommend that you use the following data stream names in all places:

  While the publication: mp4:livestream%i.f4v

  MP4 is required to play/publish all f4v files. %i would give the names of stream as livestream1, livestream2 etc... (using %b would make workflow names like livestream350, livestream500 etc. According to your name of the stream, leading to a likely delay!).

  During playback, in the smil file, make sure you have the same names of rivers: mp4:livestream1.f4v and etc.

  Recordings on the disc: make sure that the files are saved with the name: livestream1.f4v, livestream2.f4v etc.

  3. I would recommend that you start recording (for DVR) directly from FME itself instead of using the DVRControllerSync.swf. This swf is just an additional tool to use if you use not of FME. Since you are using FME, at the start of the publication, make sure that you enable the check box DVR Auto Record in the lower corner on the right. It would automatically start recording, eliminating dependence on the DVRController swf.

  Please try and let us know if this helped.

  Thank you!

• Adding Flash video

  Any advice on the video in Flash Pro (CC) adding (or imbedding).  I find a lot of info but almost too much, and a lot of it might be outdated.  My client would like to "pop-out" with the video.  I worry because his videos are going to be long, I read something about 10 about 45 seconds could cause audio/video synchronization issues.

  What can I or do I integrate a video player to solve this problem?

  What is the best file type to use?

  Any suggestions are appreciated, it's my first time incorporating video in Florida.

  Thank you very much.

  No, unless you decide to see an animation continues evolution over the video that needs to be synchronized.

  usually, you will have some things that need to happen on stage above or beside the video during its reading.  to make use of the flvplayback component is the best way to add video to a swf file.  use cue points in the video to trigger everything you need to 'sync '.

• Second DVD audio/video player jerky

  I've searched the forums and not found this... so if I forgot, sorry.

  Recently, I added a second DVD player to a desktop Dimension 4700.  The original works fine, the jerky added a video and audio gives.  I tried everything, including the BIOS updates, and nothing works.  I know that the second disc (slave, the original is set to master) is OK, as I've used in a Dimension 4600 (as a master drive and a slave drive) with no problems.  In addition, I swapped the drives (master and slave) and the problem follows the drive slave... so I know that the drive is not the problem.  I also tried this with Cable Select... same results.  When I look at the settings in Device Manager, it reflects "two" primary IDE channels, and I expected a primary and a secondary.  In addition, it shows the second "primary IDE channel" like PIO transfer mode rather DMA, so I suspect this is related to my problem.  If I install a CD drive as a second drive, everything looks and works as expected.  It seems to be only a problem when I install a second DVD player.

  Someone at - it entry to this question?  I'll buy you a virtual bottle of the finest wine available if you help me to solve!

• Passing variables ActionScript 2 using javascript

  Hello

  I tried to pass variables to a flashdrive with on the page refreshes. In doing my research I fell I cross things like externalinterface and others.

  I found a javascript + actionscript who spent ariables flashing without updating the code page:

  I have therefore 8 flash with actionscript 2.0.

  HTML:

  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

  <!--

  function callJavascript() {}

  Mathias var = inputValue.vars.value

  window.document.myMovie.SetVariable ("testValue", Mathias);

  }

  ->

  < /SCRIPT>

  <object classid=' clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000 ' codebase="""http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8, 0,0,0" " " width="550" height="100" id="myMovie" align="middle"> "

  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />

  <param name="movie" value="setplay.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffcc00" /><embed src="setplay.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffcc00" width="550" height="100" name="myMovie" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
  </object>
  </body>
  <p>
  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type=button value="Pass the variable to Flash" onClick="callJavascript()">
  <form name="inputValue">
  
   <a href="javascript:callJavascript()"> flash one</a><input type="hidden" name="vars" value="1.flv"/>
    </form> 
  </html>
  

  I have a flash drive with a movie player instance name of myVid:

  ActionScript:

  var testValue:String = "";

  watchCallback = function (id, oldval, newval): String {}

  result_txt. Text = newval;

  myVid.play (newval);

  return newval;

  };

  _root. Watch ("testValue", watchCallback);

  The code gets the variable var in the html page. Pass vars to actionscript using javascript, displays text on result_txt and play flv video with similar name to a variable passed.

  The problem is:

  I have several a href links that I would like to have the different variables that they would pass to the flash drive.

  < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var1" value = "1.flv" / >

  < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash two < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var2" value = "2.flv" / >

  < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash three < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var3" value = "3.flv" / >

  < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash four < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var4" value = "4.flv" / >

  How can I change the code so that if someone clicks on a flash of the value of var1 is passed to flash.

  and if two flash is clicked var2 are passed to Flash.

  Thank you.

• How to enlarge the video player?

  man, those things are weird - had to watch anywhere in the page just to know how to write something.  Can someone please tell me how to enlarget the video player?  Some I've seen have a button "full screen", I'm looking at one of these tutorials and cant hardly see the thing.  Also, how to save only few, without restarting it?  I use Windows IE 8, 32-bit, flash player is 10,1,53,64.  Thanks for your help.

  I tried this on all my browsers... Even on your... IE8

  Press control + use the scrollwheel (upward) to enlarge

  Control P & hold + mouse wheel (bottom) to decrease.

  ALSO: (KEYBOARD)

  Control + to increase

  Control - to reduce

  ALSO, ONCE AGAIN:

  ALT + V then Z

  This brings you do display on the action bar context menu. Then a Zoom submenu.

  Select from there.

  I hope this helps. ~ sonis

  I joined just to answer your question... lol

  Edit: Gimme those 10pts and say my post was correct and accurate

  Oh and side thought:

  You can press F - 11 to enter and exit the full screen display content broswer.

  Then right-click on the toolbar and click Auto-hide / hide toolbars.

  It helps a lot and emule and almost full screen watching these videos...

  I do not use the keys mode full screen, sometimes I answer to messenger

  and I don't want to have to click these buttons to get the real full screen, then I'm smart.

  Oh and if the video player is not a rewind button, you are unable to get back to the top.

  Unless download you it, then read it in another drive.

  I believe that I have a piece of malware affecting firefox. I frequently get a popup, allegedly from Mozilla, saying: Your Firefox video player needs to be updated. Latest published version: [today].
  Malwarebytes didn't find anything. Trend Micro is nothing. I can't find anything. Can you offer any help.

  If you are interested to try other free malware scanners, here's a list:

  • Microsoft safety scanner
  • Anti-Rootkit utility - TDSSKiller
  • AdwCleaner
  • Hitman Pro
  • ESET Online Scanner

  However, I suspect that the problem may be caused by one of your addons. I think that maybe it's the MediaPlayer 3.3.2 available to you.

  Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

  More information on the use of safe mode can be found here:

  To jscher2000 ~ I did what you said and it says "Media player could not be verified for use in Firefox. Proceed with caution. My husband told me to just delete, so I think I'll do it. Thanks for your help! Nice day.

• Am I being hacked from a website of popup saying I need to update my video player?

  I've been on Fingerhut. com (first time) when a popup that has engulfed the entire page said that I had to update my video player and should be less than one minute, 10 seconds actually. He just didn't feel, so I googled and he came is a scam, at least I'm sure it's a scam, I moved my mouse over the button install and the link was helpingtrk.com/base2.php. I googled url and is came up with what I thought was a a forum page, but it was another page of the scam, the url that has been http://mediaupdate15.com/418888/?v1=1 & v2 = 1 & v3 = 1 AND when I looked in my 'history', that the link had a greyed link that has been http://za1.zeroredirect1.com/zcvisitor/a7c6b420-12eb-11e5-bbcf-0a936b024545 that appears in my cookies in gray.

  I NEVER clicked on anything whatsoever on the pages, my question is, just being on these pages, I got my computer infected by a virus?

  If you have not downloaded anything, then most likely you are not infected. But it is worth checking:

  (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This should help discover any install/updater that can push other unwanted software. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.

  (2) very probably, it was generated by an ad in the site, but please check for bad just in case modules.

  Open Firefox page modules using either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
  • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
    firefox.exe "about:addons"

  In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

  Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

  (3) Finally, you can complete your security software regular with sweeping/cleaning of the tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.
