RE: [Flashcoders] Using Flash to Control Windows Media Player

2006-10-25 Thread Sander van Surksum
Thanks a lot

I've figured out wat was going wrong.

you can't test the fscommand localy :-S
it needs to come from a server to test

So when I uploaded to a server it worked.

Thanks for all the help

Sander

right - weird. sorry about that. i'll look into that link a bit later.

as for the muting of audio in WMP, you should be able to call a JS
function that targets the player with this command:

myPlayer.settings.volume = 0;

which is referenced in the SDK API Muzak linked to.

pretty straightforward once you get the whole Flash-JS communication
down.

 The second link isn't working yet.

 What I'm trying to do is to mute the volume of the wmv on a button 
 event in flash.

 Hope someone has already done this before.

Try and have a look at http://www.mtv.it (click on any audio video link 
to open the Media Console)...

it's builded with flash-html-js-vbscript and fscommand...

Is there anyone who's got this, using Flash to Control Windows Media

flash.

I've searched in the archives and found someone who had it working but
the URL is dead.

there are definate issues with browsers - eg: it doesn't work outside of
IE/PC, but it is cool when it does. :-)

some examples for you:

www.artificialcolors.com/page_experiments_1.html (lipsynching technique
= Flash calls WMP to playback MP3s with SMIL files to trigger actions
back inside Flash)

www.cutratebox.com/f5/page_video.html (control WMP playing a movie

Ah yes - the power of old links... :-\

Here are current locations of those links, and hopefully will stay for some
time (the old ones were on a local server that died and these are now on a
hosting company server that hopefully won't die)

controlling a video:

http://artificialcolors.com/experiments/page_video1.html

note that this is a really old example. These days, with there being a WMP
implimentation that works in Firefox, as well as the ExternalInterface API,
you might be able to get this running in other browsers.

second, here's the OLD experiments page:

http://artificialcolors.com/experiments/page_experiments_1.html

the SMIL file lip-syncing experiment is in there. It worked fine but is,
again, really old. You can probably come up with some better solutions these
days.

Re: [Flashcoders] Using Flash to Control Windows Media Player

2006-10-24 Thread Muzak
Have a look at the media player sdk
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wmplay10/mmp_sdk/windowsmediaplayer10sdk.asp

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wmplay10/mmp_sdk/settingsvolume.asp

From Flash, use the ExternalInterface api to call a javascript function, which 
then sets the wmp volume.

flash.external.ExternalInterface
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/2200.html

Muzak
