Hello List, I am developing an FLV-player which takes live, streaming and on-demand movies. I work with a CDN that deliver the content. Since 4 months, I am experiencing a very hard-to-find/fix bug with my FLVPlayback AS2.0 component.
Sometimes, when loading a clip, my preloader (own) will not be removed, the play/pause button will not change from "disabled play" to "active pause". This happens more often with live feeds than on-demand/streaming, maybe 1 of every 10 tries. With non-live it might happen 1/20. It seems to happen in clusters, so sometimes its very far between, then more often (this is probably just the nature of randomness). Googling this issue, i can only find my 3 months old previous, unanswered, question, in this mailing list. I have tried workarounds, but they dont help out much. Today, while watching a live stream, it occurred 9/10 times. I checked my colleagues computers, mac/pc, safari/firefox/iexplorer. They all had the same problem: The play button (standard component) never left the disabled state. And my other components never received a stateChange to resize etc. To make this "worse" of course it worked 1/10 times. Some of those successful tries were fast, and some were slower when changing from disabled play to active pause. I can tell that there is NO "stateChange" event triggered by the FLVPlayback component in these cases. I am now hoping/suspecting, that there is something with some FMS. And that maybe it is telling the FLVPlayback component which state it should be in, or something similar. Then this would be a server-side issue. Could anyone tell me if this is the case? Where do stateChanges get triggered when streaming/living/downloading from an FMS? Is it pure client-side, or are there other things happening? I am spraying and praying, dont know what to do and nobody seems to have the same problem in the flash community. Since I use standard components, I think I can rule out own errors in the code. Since its been recurring since 4 months, I think I can rule out network trouble or stuff like that. I've probably upgraded flash several times as well, so it might not be flash version. Since it occurred so many times today, and not that often before. I think there should be some rational explanation to be found. If you have any thoughts, ideas or similar experience, please reply.
