Re: [videoblogging] Flash Video question for Actionscripters

Does this mean that flash 8 is basically unproblematic with respect to
duration and scrubbing?

I've just started working flash and flash video and love the
flexibility of it. The sad thing is that ffmpeg does not transcode to
On2VP6 yet.

 I'm creating a little side-project Flash application that plays Flash
 Video files (FLV) from a playlist.

 I've run into a documented bug in FLV versions prior to Flash 8 where
 the duration metadata is incorrect. This screws up the time progress
 bar and seeking functionality of my video controller. There must be a
 trick to get the duration for older versions of FLV since its obvious
 that other Flash video controllers can do this. Any advice from the
 Actionscripters out there?

 Here's some documentation of the bug (scroll to the bottom):

 and here: http://www.sti-media.com/blog/archives/000111.html

 This documented bug is quite common since most video upload sites
 automatically compress with Sorensen (Flash Video 6/7 codec).

 I've used a tool called FLV Metadata Injector to correct the FLV metadata:

 This does work, but I'd rather be backwards compatible with Flash Video 6/7.

Correct, I don't think FFMpeg will be supporting On2VP6.
But, you can get the On2 Flix Exporter and run that on your server.
Not sure how expensive it is. I'm pretty sure that's what most of the
upload-your-video-here sites are using.

I ran into this problem and never found a fix.:-(I'm unsure if there is a way without re-encoding/injecting metadata.I believe the upload sites get around the issue coz they use the Flash server to stream it.
Good luck, hope someone gives some good advice on this thread.On 6/1/06, Joshua Kinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]
