Hi,
I'm working from the Web UI. This is BSP. Here I add 2 Methods (GET_PDF and SEND_MAIL).

Dynamic FLV Loading Entire Video

Using Flash 8 and the tutorial at
http://reallyshiny.com/tutorials/flash.php,
I created a dynamic FLV player. Everything works but the player
loads the entire FLV video when going to the URL. Is there an easy
way to prevent FLVPlayback component from loading the complete FLV
video until someone clicks play? If there were several videos on
the page or one video was very large it could take an unnecessary
about of bandwidth to display the page, especially if the end user
wasn't going to view that video.

Sorry, my mistake.
Ok, I think that if you used a prebuilt component, the play
button i used only to start the clip. You have to create your own
Play button, that verify if the video exist or if it has to load
it. So the first time, the video does not exist, then when the used
will click on it, it will start the video load. Don't put the video
path on the component, just feed it with actionScript. After that
if the user stop the video or just pause it and press Play button
again your code will check, then the video already exist and it
will not start the load again, but just play it.
Has I said, this is the way I think it should be, you have to
Script your own play btn. May be there is other way, but I don't
know them.
Hope that can help you!

Do flv files preload?

Brief question: when you set a preload percentage in Captivate 5, does that only apply to the swf file that gets outputted and not any flv files?
For instance, if I have a 2mb Captivate-generated swf file that plays 3 flv files at runtime that are 5mb each and the preload percentage is at 100%, is it preloading the 2mb swf file, or preloading 17mb to include the flvs?
Does the answer change depending on whether you insert flvs using Insert > FLV or F4V File versus Insert > Slide Video? (I've only used the former method)
If Captivate does not preload the flvs (which is my assumption), does anyone know of a smart preloading widget or AS3 code snippet that will do this job?

Videos are not pre-loaded (as they are always external to the SWF file which captivate publishes). This is the case whichever video you use, Insert > FLV or F4V File versus Insert > Slide Video

Dynamic FLV content path

I'm currently displaying a Flash Video (instance name = vid)
through a movie clip (instance name = top) in my FLA with this
actionscript:
top.vid.contentPath = "0207.flv";
It works fine. But now I need to figure out how to make the
content path dynamic. A variable will be added to the SWF's parent
HTML file like this:
<param name="movie" value="test.swf?videoDate=0207" />
The goal is to make an SWF file that can play any FLV file
based on the value of the videoDate variable. So if videoDate=0207,
then the SWF will play 0207.flv. If videoDate=0307, then the SWF
will play 0307.flv. And so on.
I can see how this should work, but I'm just not enough of an
actionscript badass to know exactly how to code it. In plain
English, I think I need something like this:
videoArray = value of videoDate variable from HTML + .flv
extension
top.vid.contentPath = videoArray
Any help would really really be appreciated.

videoArray = videoDate + ".flv";

Dynamic FLV/MPG - Video Player

Hi guys,
Thanks in advance.
I am trying to create an online video player of short
videoclips.
I have an array, which has around 10+ FLV and a few MPG
videoclips.
The requirement-
- Dynamically load and display these movieclips - one after
the other.
- After the current movie has finished playing, the next
movie, should
automatically start.
- After the last movie ends, it should loopback and start
from the first
clip.
Kindly help.
Thanx again.

You will need some server side script to be the mediator
between your database and the SWF. Use the FLVPlayback components'
source method to play the FLV files you want.

Dynamic flv player with auto resize based on content

Hi,
I would like to build a .flv player which can accommodate 7
different video sizes.
This will probably be made using php and xml to dynamically
control content.
What I would like to know is if and how it is possible to
have a holder.swf (just looks for variables to display the flv)
that can automatically resize based on the flv dimensions. I dont
want any kind of browserscreen resolution resizing of content, just
an swf that will change its size from say 320x240 to 450x253
depending on the dynamically loaded flv.

The same thing has been reported for the T410. You can see how to fix it here:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T410-unstable-screen-brightness/m-p/212492#...
It appears to occur anytime you are on battery and the intel graphics power plan is set to anything other than 'maximum performance.' It's pretty subtle, but really annoying when it happens.

Dynamic FLV playlist

Hi guys,
Im trying to create a dynamic streaming FLV playlist using
the list component and Flash Communication server 1.5. Ive tried
modifying both guides by Lisa Larson (the one for FMS2 and the one
for FCS1.5) but whenever I load the completed swf nothing plays.
Occasionally the previews show in the list component but will just
not play.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Dynamic FLV selection

Hello,
I am using Flash CS4 and I created a video player with the
Import Video function that links to an FLV video on my web server.
It works fine, however I have several FLV files that I want to be
able to select at runtime. I don't want the FLV video target
hardcoded into the SWF file like it appears to be now. I want to be
able to specify it in the calling HTML file somehow.
How do I make it so that the SWF does not have the video
filename hardcoded into it, and can take the filename as a
parameter instead? Then how do I pass it that parameter from the
HTML page?
Thanks,
Jim

Any idea what might be wrong?

Action Script 3 Percentage Preloader

Here is my code:
import flash.display.*;
this.stop();
var ld:Loader = new Loader();
ld.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addSWF);
ld.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preloaderHandler);
ld.load(new URLRequest("pictures.swf"));
function preloaderHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void{
     var pcent:Number=event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal*100;
     preloadBar.scaleX=pcent/100;
     preloadTxt.text=int(pcent)+"%";
function addSWF(event:Event):void {
     addChild(ld);
What I want to do is have it only preload 10% of the file, then to start to play while it loads the rest of the file in the background. As of right now it loads 100% of the file. I know that it does this on the 5th line:
ld.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addSWF);
But, I can't figure out how to put (Event.10%, addSWF);
Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately that didn't work either. I changed the code to include a '}'
import flash.display.*;
this.stop();
var ld:Loader = new Loader();
ld.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preloaderHandler);
ld.load(new URLRequest("pictures.swf"));
function preloaderHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void{
    var pcent:Number=event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal*100;
    preloadBar.scaleX=pcent/100;
    preloadTxt.text=int(pcent)+"%";
if (pcent == 10){
     addChild(ld);
The code seems sound, but "addChild(ld);" is never called.

Dynamic flv contentPath

Hi all,
I am writing a script that loads the path to an FLV file and
loads it in an FLVPlayback object. The FLVPlayback object is placed
inside a MovieClip called "theVideo" and has the instance name
"player".
If theVideo is already on stage when the movie loads, this
works fine. The problem is that until I actually load the FLV file,
the FLVPlayback object is displayed with the "loading bars" in the
timeline, and I am guessing this is wasting CPU cycles.
If I try to load the MC when I am ready to load the video,
the MC loads but I cannot seem to set the contentPath since I get
these "loading bars".
I checked my path and I know it is correct since it works
with the first option, but I would need to do this the second way.
Would anyone know why I am having problems setting the contentPath
parameter?
Thanks for the help

A couple of observations, maybe nothing to do with your
problem:
1) you attach a movieClip to _root, but you use a
getNextHighestDepth of a different movieClip (contentMC ???
2) did you just quickly type this from memory or did you
copy/paste the code? You have spaces in front of and after "root."
Other than that, I haven't understood what you mean with
"loading bars in the timeline". Maybe you can expand on that a bit?
Good luck

FLV is the video file itself. You need a player to actually
play the
FLV. The player is an additional SWF file. Dreamweaver
generates its own
SWF player, which must be uploaded to the server along with
the
Javascript file it creates to make the whole thing work.
Alternatively,
you can use another FLV player (such as Flowplayer) and
manually insert
the correct code. Still - you need to upload all supporting
files such
as the SWF player. Make sense?
Flash (the program) doesn't enter the picture at all unless
you are a
Flash geek and have created your own player (SWF).
