How's this for an idea? Ignore the position of the playhead, just get
the mouse position - it's crude code, but it sort of works, and you can
refine it as you see fit...
import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;
//var player:FLVPlayback;
//var _tip:TextField;
player.addEventListener(VideoEvent.SCRUB_START, _scrubStartHandler,
false, 0, true);
player.addEventListener(VideoEvent.SCRUB_FINISH, _scrubEndHandler,
false, 0, true);
player.addEventListener(VideoEvent.SEEKED, _seekHandler, false, 0, true);
player.play("http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/caption_video.flv";);
_tip.visible = false;
function _seekHandler(v:VideoEvent):void {
trace("seek event " + v.playheadTime);
_tip.x = this.mouseX;
_tip.y = this.mouseY - _tip.height;
_tip.text = "" + v.playheadTime;
}
function _scrubStartHandler(v:VideoEvent):void {
trace("_scrubStartHandler event " + v.playheadTime);
_tip.x = this.mouseX;
_tip.y = this.mouseY - _tip.height;
_tip.text = "" + v.playheadTime;
_tip.visible = true;
}
function _scrubEndHandler(v:VideoEvent):void {
trace("_scrubEndHandler event " + v.playheadTime);
_tip.x = this.mouseX;
_tip.y = this.mouseY - _tip.height;
_tip.text = "" + v.playheadTime;
_tip.visible = false;
}

hi list,
i'm having absolutely no luck targeting the handle of a seekbar used with an
FLVPlayback component. i only want to read its x value to add a tooltip, which
i've seen on other sites. i have tried using both a skin with a seekbar built
in and ignoring a skin and manually adding a seekbar component but have had no
joy with either.
i originally started using just video and netstream but found that i couldn't
attach a seekbar component to it so i'd have to program all the regular
interaction myself just to add a simple tooltip, so thought it would be easier
to use FLVPlayback.
i don't use components very often but i would have thought it was a simple
thing to access.
thanks for any pointers,
david
