[Flashcoders] Need resize option for video in webpage and fix some problems in code.
Hi,
I need little help to have some feature in http streamin of flv. I am using
swf file with netstream to stream video. I am not able to get metatada for
duration also i am not able to change video on completion using listener
object. Below is the code
Note: nsVideo is the video object, residing in a movieclip vFLV, instance
name of video object is video.
import mx.video.*;
//connection
var ncFLVConnection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
ncFLVConnection.connect(null);
var nsVideo:NetStream = new NetStream(ncFLVConnection);
nsVideo.setBufferTime(1);
vFLV.video.attachVideo(nsVideo);
nsVideo.play(INA Montag.flv);
//listener
nsVideo.contentPath = INA Montag.flv;
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
// listen for complete event; play new FLV
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
if (nsVideo.contentPath == INA Montag.flv) {
nsVideo.play(ina1.flv);
}
};
nsVideo.addEventListener(complete, listenerObject);
//video controls
nsVideo.onStatus = function(oData:Object):Void {
trace(oData.code);
};
var nDuration:Number = 0;
nsVideo.onMetaData = function(oMetaData:Object):Void {
nDuration = oMetaData.duration;
trace(nDuration);
};
vFLV.mPlay.onPress = function():Void {
nsVideo.pause(false);
};
vFLV.mPause.onPress = function():Void {
nsVideo.pause(true);
};
vFLV.mStop.onPress = function():Void {
nsVideo.pause(true);
nsVideo.seek(0);
};
bufferingBar = my_buffrgbar;
import mx.video.*;
//nsVideo.bufferTime = 15;
bufferingBarHidesAndDisablesOthers = true;
//vFLV.video.contentPath = INA Montag.flv;
setInterval(updateProgress, 100);
function updateProgress():Void {
var nPercent:Number = 100*nsVideo.time/nDuration;
mProgress.mPercent._xscale = nPercent;
percentage.text = nsVideo.time;
}
nsVideo.onMetaData = function(oMetaData:Object):Void {
vFLV.video._width = oMetaData.width;
vFLV.video._height = oMetaData.height;
};
vFLV.reSize.onPress = function():Void {
vFLV._width = vFLV._width*1.5;
vFLV._height = vFLV._height*1.5;
};
i am able to play first video. i am not getting duration of the video. I am
not able to load video 2 all files reside in same folder. I am able to
resize video in flash, but i have to use the swf in a webpage there i need
the video resize on a liquid web page. so that when user screen res. are

[Flashcoders] need some clarifications on Video streaming
Hi, i have some queries regarding video streaming. 1. If we use flash media server to deliver streaming as per user bandwidth, do we need to keep separate flv files for each kind of bandwidth. 2. Is any third party tool available which can be put on server to convert different video formats to flv My requirement is that video uploaded by user in any format is converted to flv and stored on media server, like u can see in youtube. 3. What can be the best way to upload and download high quality video via internet, where bandwidth can vary from palce to place. thanks -- Abhishek Kumar ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
Re: [Flashcoders] How to use media server alongwith webserver for video streaming
Hi, thanks for the tips. You have made my certain doubts clear about the subject, rest i will explore. if u find any further such inputs let me know. As i understood requests are directly handled by FMS on request from swf files. I was just trying to work out on a news based site kind of scenario where a .net application is used to dynamically display the content i mean upload on server and streaming of a video dynamically as per request by a user. In this case then 1. Http request is made to load a SWF 2. now on a user click on video icon in webpage request will be passed to residing SWF, SWF contains logic for RTMP call to FMS 3. SWF requests FLV stream from FMS 4. SWF receives FLV stream and displays it I mean request first pass to SWF and from there to FMS. I that case where the FLV database will be stored. Bacauz FMS and web server are separate. I am still a bit confused. thanks Abhi On 7/24/07, greg h [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Abhishek, Bob's summary is 100% correct. For more detail, you might want to check out the heading About streaming video here on the Delivery options for Flash video page of the Flash video learning guide: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_guide_02.html Also this page may help too: Streaming Video (FLV) -- Delivering Flash Video: Understanding the Difference Between Progressive Download and Streaming Video http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/flv_download_04.html Following is a basic sequence of events at runtime: 1) browser requests a SWF from the web server via HTTP 2) browser receives SWF, SWF contains logic for RTMP call to FMS 3) SWF requests FLV stream from FMS 4) FMS starts stream to the SWF 5) SWF receives FLV stream and displays it. So, basically, there is no direct interaction between the FMS and web server.

Unfortunately swf studio has not been updated for vista yet. As a result you have to have administrator rights to run the flash app. Even more annoying is the fact that if you just run the application by double-clicking the exe (or through an autorun file on a CD-ROM) the exe won't start but will still be listed in the task manager. This means that you manually have to quit the application in the task manager before you can start the exe as an administrator. The worst thing about this whole issue is that Microsoft didn't think it was necessary to inform the user in any way when he tries to run a legacy exe. No error message - nothing. The app just won't start. So my question is: Are there any workarounds yet? Do other swf wrapper tools already work with vista? I came up with this idea of creating a vista compatible windows form application. This application would then open an alert popup window, which informs the user that the application which is about to be launched (my flash exe) requires administrator rights. It would then prompt the user to Run the application as an administrator, start the flash exe and quit. Not sure if this is possible though ... Any thoughts?

Hi, thanks for the help as we have researched a bit we think that we will be able to do this using xml as bridge between online database and cd-rom content.

To keep track that student has really gone through particular lessons and assessment on cd-rom his status is updated as he progresses thorugh content on CD-ROM. since e-learning flash based study material is heavy cd-rom serves a better purpose for playing such content. I need synchronization of offline data on cd-rom with online data. Is there some way out. purposes are two 1. to validate the user 2. to update his status of progress through the content. thanks Abhi On 2/8/07, Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, well it's not going to work with a flash only solution, you probably need to wrap your flash (assuming it has to be flash) with an exe, such as Zinc or Director, which allows you to have both local and network access. greetz JC On 2/8/07, creativity [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need few things 1. A user databse has been put on web server 2. he gets a content CD-ROM 3. He first needs to be validated online to use the cd-rom and then create his user id and pwd 4. now when he reads a particular module from cd-rom and does some questionaire his data should be updated online for this, to confirm that he has gone through particular section. 5 if there is an option that after creating user id password he can read content offline also with same user id and pwd and his status gets updated when he gets online. I need to know how this solution can be achieved. Basically updating user interaction with cd-rom , online. thanks Abhi On 2/8/07, Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, so what is your question? greetz JC On 2/8/07, creativity [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: i have online records of students. and i have some contents on cd-rom. i need user to authenticate online when he starts browsing cd. also i need to pass his status to online record once he has gone througha particular portion of cd-rom. I simply need to track how much content user has read from cd-rom data and to be updated online in his records. -- Abhishek Kumar ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http
