RE: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Off the display list does not mean not playing. Right, yeah, I understand that - sorry, I should have clarified that I am also stopping the video as well. My code does the following when a video is supposed to be removed before a new one is created and played: 1. The Flvplayback component instance is told to stop. 2. Any listeners are removed from Flvplayback component instance 3. The Flvplayback component instance is removed from container sprite's display list 4. The Flvplayback component instance set to null 5. The Sprite that the FLVplayback component was in is removed from the display list. 6. Any listeners attached to the container Sprite instance are removed 7. The container Sprite instance is set to null. Anyone see any problem in that logic above? I'm going to try Deepanjan's suggestion next and see if that works.

[Flashcoders] root.loaderInfo doesn't exist
Hi all -
Have a weird situation in Flash CS5 and I'm not sure what the problem is, if
it's a bug, or a corrupted FLA.
Here's the scenario. I have two FLAs -- one brand new created by me, a second
given to me by a client.
In the first keyframe I have this in both:
var keyStr:String;
var valueStr:String;
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
for (keyStr in paramObj) {
valueStr = String(paramObj[keyStr]);
trace(\t + keyStr + :\t + valueStr + \n);
}
I have two identical HTML documents embedding each SWF (separately). In my SWF,
the flashvars (passed in via SWFObject) work fine. In the client's, the
loaderInfo data is completely undefined. Nothing there.
Just to test this out more, I then tried this with both:
var flashvars:Object = {};
addEventListener( Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init );
function init( e:Event ):void
{
removeEventListener( Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init );
flashvars = stage.loaderInfo.parameters;
var keyStr:String;
for (keyStr in flashvars) {
valueStr = String(flashvars[keyStr]);
trace(\t + keyStr + :\t + valueStr + \n);
}
In my SWF, the event doesn't fire (which is fine, for it grabs
this.root.loaderInfo as it should). In the client's SWF, the stage event *does*
fire, and then the parameters are avail (through stage).
Any ideas what could be causing this discrepancy? The timelines of both SWFs
are identical, and neither are being loaded into a parent SWF. It feels like
something low-level is going on that I'm not aware of.

RE: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
I am also using the FLVPlayback Component, but accessed the NetStream from
the component to close it:
this.video.getVideoPlayer(0).close();
this.video.getVideoPlayer(0).netStream.close();
I get a null error when I run that:
if (_flvPlayback != null)
{
_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).close();
_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).netStream.close(); //--Null error here
...
The null error is on the second statement
(_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).netStream.close();), not the first
(_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).close();).

[Flashcoders] CS5 where to put tween engines etc?
Hi all, just upgraded from CS3 to CS5. Where do I put external classes and libraries like TweenLite? In CS3 they were in: Adobe Flash CS3 Configuration Actionscript 3.0 Classes ... but that path doesn't exist in CS5. Anyone upgraded and can help?

Re: [Flashcoders] CS5 where to put tween engines etc?
Keep one spot someplace where you keep all your packages (yours and 3rd party). Then link to them there. If you want to use SVN, use that same spot. Keeps things uncluttered. For project work where you have lesser-importance or lesser-reusable code, slap those in your project directory to keep your main location solid.

RE: [Flashcoders] CS5 where to put tween engines etc?
Wherever you want. You need to specify class paths for projects in the Flash IDE. Eric gave some good advice. Probably wasn't a good thing you had those classes in an Adobe folder anyway. When you pass projects around, all the associated code should travel with it, so create a project folder and put it in there. Tools like FlashDevelop and Flashbuilder are great at organizing projects.

It's much better if you keep all classes and libraries local to the project, even if it means 'clogging' up drive space with copies of the same thing. This ensures that A) projects are portable, as you can pack/move them all from the same source without having to care about dependencies; and B) you don't depend on library versioning, where one update in project X can break project Y silently Zeh On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 2:39 PM, David Hunter davehunte...@hotmail.comwrote: thanks for all your prompt advice. i'm ok with keeping my own classes and packages local to the project. but i don't want to clog up my drive unnecessarily with the same tween engine over and over. i have tried putting a folder Flash_Packages in my Documents folder and linking to it in the Actionscript 3.0 preferences, like your video but code hinting isn't recognising import org what could be wrong?

Re: [Flashcoders] root.loaderInfo doesn't exist
Well, I'm going to answer my own question here for I found the problem. It's
related to the new text field types in Flash CS5. Using the old 'classic' style
of text field makes them behave the same way. It seems as though those
newfangled text fields like to mess with all kinds of things.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Hello Jason,
I am using this to clear the FLVPlayback:
I have added the FLVPlayback component through code doing an addChild.
Then I have passed the custom NCManagerLimelight Class which overrites the
inbuilt NCManager class.
The NCManagerLimelight is an opensource code you will get from net.
this.video = new FLVPlayback();
VideoPlayer.iNCManagerClass = NCManagerLimelight;
if (this.video.ncMgr.netConnection != null) {
if (this.video.ncMgr.netConnection.connected) {
if(this.video.getVideoPlayer(0).netStream != null){
this.video.getVideoPlayer(0).close();
//TraceDebug.print(NET_STREAM ON RESET : +
this.video.getVideoPlayer(0).netStream);
}
}
}
Hope this helps.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Hi Jason,
Could you set the code that starts the new video to check for a
boolean before playing a new video?
I am thinking you may already have this.
var isPlaying:Boolean = true;
and set this when a video actually starts playing?
Best,
Karl

RE: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Could you set the code that starts the new video to check for a boolean
before playing a new video?
Well, thanks, but that isn't my setup. If I did that, then the new video would
have to wait for the old video (now not on the screen, the user told it to
disappear, but you still hear the audio for some reason) to finish playing -
not a good user experience. They are two different instances - a player in one
container sprite and after that sprite is removed, a player in a new sprite
container. My code does the following when a video is supposed to be removed
before a new one is created and played:
1. The Flvplayback component instance is told to stop.
2. Any listeners are removed from Flvplayback component instance
3. The Flvplayback component instance is removed from container sprite's
display list
4. The Flvplayback component instance set to null
5. The Sprite that the FLVplayback component was in is removed from the display
list.
6. Any listeners attached to the container Sprite instance are removed
7. The container Sprite instance is set to null.
8. Then the new sprite is created, and the new FLV component created which
plays the video.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
You might want to try to pause the video before stopping, unloading
and reloading
myVideo.pause();
That would stop the audio for sure. (I think)

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Right here, tell it to pause then continue with your list. 1 - 8. 1. The Flvplayback component instance is told to stop. 2. Any listeners are removed from Flvplayback component instance 3. The Flvplayback component instance is removed from container sprite's display list 4. The Flvplayback component instance set to null 5. The Sprite that the FLVplayback component was in is removed from the display list. 6. Any listeners attached to the container Sprite instance are removed 7. The container Sprite instance is set to null. 8. Then the new sprite is created, and the new FLV component created which plays the video.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
Json,
Your logic seems to be absolutely fine, which suggests that the stream is
not getting closed even after deletion.
This happens sometimes when the player might be bufferring. So at this time
you might have stopped the video, but the steam is open, so when the
buffering in the background (rmember you has stopped the player) completed
it passes the steam, now by this time your sprite has been removed, so you
cannot see the video but just listen to the audio as the stream is still
open.
I has a similar experience and that got solved only by being able to close
the stream directly.
Also try setting the playback component to null on deletion.

You might want to try to pause the video before stopping, unloading and reloading Geez Karl, I think that might have fixed it... at least, since I added the pause() before the stop() and everything else, I cannot reproduce the bug...

public function destroyVideo():void
{
if (_flvPlayback != null)
{
_flvPlayback.pause();
_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).close();//close
the netstream
_flvPlayback.stop();
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(VideoEvent.READY, onVideoReady);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener
(MetadataEvent.METADATA_RECEIVED, onMetadataReceived);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE,
onVideoComplete);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT,
onCuePoint);
if (_flvPlayback.stage) {
removeChild(_flvPlayback); }
_flvPlayback = null;
}
}

Geez Karl, I think that might have fixed it... at least, since I
added the pause() before the stop() and everything else, I cannot
reproduce the bug...
Stupid, you would think that calling flvPlayback.stop() would stop
the audio as well!
If that was it, then I'm so happy - thanks Karl, Deepanjan, and
Henrik. I'll keep trying to break it and see if the bug is still
there, so keeping my fingers crossed.

RE: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
UGhh,.. spoke too soon. Problem is still there. Though MUCH harder to
reproduce than it was before. See anything that could be better in the code
below?
_flvPlayback.pause();
_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).close();//close
the netstream
_flvPlayback.stop();
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(VideoEvent.READY, onVideoReady);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(MetadataEvent.METADATA_RECEIVED,
onMetadataReceived);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, onVideoComplete);
_flvPlayback.removeEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, onCuePoint);
if (_flvPlayback.stage) {
removeChild(_flvPlayback); }
//instead of the above line, I also tried
just removeChild(_flvPlayback);
_flvPlayback = null;

Try pausing, stopping then closing.
_flvPlayback.pause();
_flvPlayback.stop();
_flvPlayback.getVideoPlayer(0).close(); //close the netstream
// Maybe also replace the above line with
//_flvPlayback.close(); //Kind of reaching on this one. :)

OK I'll give it a shot.
// Maybe also replace the above line with //_flvPlayback.close(); //Kind of

Yeah, lol, there is no _flvPlayback.close() method, but there is an
_flvPlayback.closeVideoPlayer(0); method - I'll try that too. If all else
fails, I'll just make sure the user has to watch some of the video (video is
definitely out of buffer mode) before advancing to the next screen where the
next video is. Not ideal, but in theory it would work. I think Deepanjan is
right, it has to do with the buffering in the netstream still taking place
while the videoplayback component is removed. Because of that, the audio still
clings on. Is there a way to interrupt or stop/kill the buffering process
before it finishes? The bug 'feels' like it happens during buffering and the
user, instead of waiting for buffering to finish, moves on to the next video.
It doesn't seem to be reproducable when the first video has already started
playing.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV audio doesn't stop
If it is a stream issue, maybe try loading a blank dummy stream just
before the actual new stream?
That should clear any data.
