Re: [flexcoders] Video Controller
Andrew and Adbul, For some good, light-hearted fun you may want to check this out: www.adobe.com/devnet/tip/001.html This is a Flash 5 "Tip of the Week" from Macromedia themselves with a streaming demo of how to "create your own Macromedia Flash controller for a QuickTime movie". I am not making this stuff up. (Funnier still, please note that they published this pre-Captivate-like demo in QuickTime. lol) It has been said that necessity is the mother of invention, and before FLV, Flash developers did some amazing things to get the interactivity of Flash integrated with true video on the net. Should it be anyone's *first* choice today? N! Unless maybe like this guy who posted last year that he has "over 10,000 videos I already have captured and rendered as wmv". Then, rather than re-encode his video library as FLVs, it might make sense to "do 1 flash movie and then 'float' the windows media player embed over the top of the flash movie. " It is really a business decision between re-encoding existing video versus creating your own Flex/Flash video player using some of the old school Flash techniques that are out there. I came into Flash with MX 2004, aka Flash Player 6. So I am with you all the way that FLV is the way to go. The closest I ever came to non-FLV video in Flash was a legacy site that embedded each video on the site in individual SWFs and then created their own player in Flash that used loadMovie() to play each single video SWF on-demand. At the time my first reaction was "Why?", but when I sat back and considered the options that were available pre-FLV, I understood. So if it makes sense for KP to use Flex to play, or should I say control playback of, his existing videos encoded in .mov,.mpeg,wmv,etc. it can be done. He will just have create his own custom player ;-) And KP, if you know what to google for, there is are still a lot of Flash how-to related links out there. (Note: many large commercial sites have now converted their video libraries to FLV and thus have taken down their old content integrating Flash with WMV and Quicktime.) For more "Geez! I can't believe they did that!" fun check out these too: Flash 4! March 24, 2000 Making Interactive QuickTime Video, May 8, 2002 How to simulate video in Macromedia Flash, Macromedia Technote! (Look Ma! No video, but it looks like video!) Jan 6, 2006 Windows media player embed in div over flash movie? (runnable prototype) Oh, and THANK YOU MACROMEDIA FOR FLV ... AND ESPECIALLY FOR FLV WITH On2 Oh yeah, AND FOR FLEX 2 TOO! :-) g On 9/11/06, Abdul Qabiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Hi,Adobe Flash Player can only player .flv files, you can however covert other videos types (.avi, .wmv etc) to .flv using Open Source tool FFMPEG.Conversion takes depending on the length and compression of the video files.

RE: [flexcoders] Video Controller
If you want to play the video inside of Flex, you will need to convert it to FLV… hands down. A lot of people on this newsgroup mention FFmpeg for video conversion (http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/). You might want to look at that. -Andy _ Andrew Trice Cynergy Systems, Inc. http://www.cynergysystems.com Blog: http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/andrewtrice Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Office: 866-CYNERGY From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of greg h Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 11:13 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Video Controller KP, You are correct that the Flex 2 mx.controls.VideoDisplay and the flash.media.Video that it utilizes are FLV only (either streaming via FMS or progressive).
