RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 can't target seekbar handle
Thanks for that Glen, and your code! I had thought about that as a work-around
but was using an enterframe event rather than the seeked. i guess i'd just have
to fix the y value of the tip, and then add some x value constraints.
cheers a lot.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 can't target seekbar handle
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

i have no problem with getting an in instance of FLVPlayback to work, its playing stopping and scrubbing with a skin. i just can't seem to access the actual handle in the skin. the search goes on... > From: pedrok...@gmail.com > Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 18:13:06 +0100 > Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 can't target seekbar handle > To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > > I have never used the FLV component, but I suppose you have to import it > first, or nothing will work.

RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 can't target seekbar handle
thanks Henrik, care to shed some light on that, i have been through the docs, googled lots, opened the components and skins to look for it. but whether i try SeekBarHandle, seekBarHandle, SeekBarHandle_mc, handle_mc, (and other variations i have found listed) all appended to myFLVPlayback or myFLVPlayback.seekBar or mySeekBar, and all to no effect. it always throws either an error when compiling or if it does compile and then when i trigger the event it throws errors when the event is fired. i must be missing a trick somewhere! > Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 17:33:51 +0100 > From: he...@henke37.cjb.net > To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 can't target seekbar handle > > There is a property for it, I read the source myself. > ___ > Flashcoders mailing list > Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _ We want to hear all your funny, exciting and crazy Hotmail stories.
