Flash Media Player Advanced Options

Hi All,
I have created an online streaming radio on Shoutcast website , now I want to add this radio player in my website to let user listen to my radio while browsing the website, I have no problem with that, but I want to add some extra features to my flash player as following :
1- Show Song Name
2- Show Singer name
3- Show Previous Song Name
4- Show Next Song Name
5- Show Singer Photo
so please if anyone can suggest or provide a tutorial or information that can help me do that I will be thankful
Thanks in Advance

All of this can be done using an xml file to supply the data.... so learn how to incorporate xml into Flash.
Start here with "Flash and XML" scroll down to near bottom of the page at:
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/
Google "using xml for Flash" for more info...
You will be using actionscript to build a data array (from the xml file), then depending on certain conditions, you will be displaying an [element] of that array in a dynamic text box (for example).
Example of custom video player... but audio player would use the same principles:
http://www.drheimer.com/video/
Custom features:
Video categories
Playlist with Title, description, and photo
Transcript of video
Each feature was just added using an array drawing data from an xml file... I just added one feature at a time.... got that working... then added the second, third, etc.
So start small, learn to build just ONE feature at a time... get that working before you go on.
Best wishes,

I need a Flash Media player....

Hey folks, how you doing....
I'm working on a project and I'm in need of a flash media
player, but not just any kind....
I've work with various mp3 as well as FLV video players, and
have had much success using them, but for this project I want to
add something special. It needs to be a bit of a all in one
unit....
The best example I could find of the kind of thing I'm
looking for was on the official John Mayer Site. (
http://www.johnmayer.com )
As you can see I would like the player to be able to play
back Video as well as audio (with jpeg background), have a active
play list and of course have the standard controls: Play, stop,
volume, next etc.... I would assume that the data will be fed from
an XML file as most players do.
If there's anyone out there that can help me with a easy
solution to implement this, or know whether I could purchase one
(commercially or private), please let me know. I would appreciate
it very much.
Thanks in advance.
Johnny

Hi Johnny,
You can create your own FLV player and add the mp3
functionality into this
example.

p.s it resizes at runtime which normal flash files you cannot
do.
Hope you find this useful. Its a good start.

Flash media player in apex.

I need help finding more informaiton on using flash media player in apex applications.
I have some audio files that we need to save in a database and be able to playback from the application. We can't have the information download or save to users machines before playing.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi,
If you're playing the audio file by using a Flash component then the user won't be directly downloading the file themselves, it will be the 'responsibility' of the flash component to set its 'source' to point at the audio file in question.
If you're asking how do you then prevent someone from directly downloading the audio file, then that's actually far more difficult to achieve so it depends how 'secure' you want to be. I'd need more details really on your particular situation to be able to advise anything more.

How to download mozilla fire fox and adobe flash media player

Hi I am so lost i cant seem to download all the stuff i need to set up my notebook (iBook G4) i just need to find out how i can update my mac os x 10.4 to a later version also since mine is obsolete it wont let me download firefox or adobe flash media player. Im not good with computers so i may need instructions to be easy to understand.

Hello,
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...

SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...

Flash is a nightmare, but my notes on that...
Look for this for the Standalone player "Download the Macintosh Flash Player 10 Projector content debugger (ZIP, 5.95 MB)"
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!
Or I put up the smaller ones here...

The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

Flash media player in my browser resets security/privacy settings!

Why do the last three versions of flash media player in my browser reset my security and privacy settings leaving my system totally vunerable??? I have set and reset multiple times both locally and on the global settings panel on the Adobe web site.

Reguardless of what is "encoded" into Shockwave Flash streaming player the fact that the settings default back to accept update notifications, allow peer to peer sharing, and storage settings still exist since the last several program updates.
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l
All programs have been updated, re-installed to all current versions. Checked everyday the player will reset anywhere from one to five days from being set. I also check before and after any utilities run on my systems to verify the change is not caused by any resident commands or software. Yes this happens on different computers and OS.
I run all maintenance and security manually, including updates of any kind.

Playing website videos requiring flash media player.

Websites such as cnn.com and foxnews.com as well as many others offer video clips for viewing, but they require use of a flash media player. Is it possible to play such clips on an IPhone and, if so, how?

No. iPhone does not support Flash.

Flash Media Player- missing controls

I am using the flash media player. When I publish the file, the controls seem to be missing from the player. I have the skin.swf file uploaded with the player....but it appears missing?
Could something else be causing this?

How Access a Third Party Flash Media Player

Hello eveyone,
I was wondering if there is any way that I can know some how
what buttons "Play, Pause, FF, etc. " has been clicked a third
party Flash Media Player?
Thank you and have a great day.
Khoramdin

Thanks for the suggestions it appears I was doing more or less the right things but miss reading the error message:
Cannot access keyword.classes.thirdPartyClass
bad class file C:\java\keyword\classes\thirdPartyClass
class file contains wrong class: thirdPartyClass
please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectroy of the classpath.
While looking I have found that the classes do not contian src folders of Javadoc so I will go see if the third party can supply a Jar file or similar.
Thanks

Can you add actions to the Flash Media Player?

I have 2 wmv files. One is the audio and one is the video. I
don't own any software that combines both formats maintaining
perfect video quality. If I import the video wmv file into Flash
(converting it first with the Flash video encoder) is there any way
I can create an action that plays and pauses a seperate audio track
in the project file (when hitting the button in the Flash media
player). ??
Thanks

look into the Sound class.

Cannot associate media file types .swf .flv with Adobe Flash media player

I have been trying to associate these media types ( .swf .flv ) with Adobe Flash media player (9.0.124 latest from Adobe site) but cannot see the program in the list (looked under Adobe, Flash, Macromedia, Common etc) after loading. I have repeated the process, rebooted, and no luck.
Any ideas why a new program should not show in the Programs list ?
thanks

Thanks, I'm curious to find out what's different. I've repair disk permissions again using the one in Disk Utility instead of Cocktail with not luck As far as I can tell, all my issues seem to be occurring solely on www.adultswim.com and is sill happening with Camino, Firefox, Safari, and SWF & FLV Player. I'll keep checking other sites to see if the problem manifests itself elsewhere and I'll post any other changes I make to my system that might appear to help.

Hello,I need help.ipad 3 does not support flash media player.which player must I download instead of flash media player?

Hello,I need help.ipad 3 does not support flash media player.which player must I download instead of flash media player?

Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.

Using Flash Media player to play files run from a database

Hello all,
I have a dynamic webpage which is connected to a MySQL
database displaying dynamic information stored in a MySQL table.
One additional field I have added is a 'video' field in which
the path to a flash video file is displayed.
I have a number of user (each user corresponds to a row in
the table) pictures which are stored in a folder, but the paths to
which are stored in the database.Using Dreamweaver, I can drag the
dynamic binding onto the image place holder and then it will lift
the corresponding image from the table, but the flash video player
doesn't seem to allow me to do this.
I would like to do something similar for flash videos, but
I'm not sure how to do it. Whenever I add a flash movie through the
media player I need to specify the path - which will change
depending on what entry in the table is being viewed.
I have created my websites only with dreamweaver and can't
program which probably explains why I've got no idea what to do.
Hope I made sense - will gladly clarify or send you my code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Adam

Make sure that your database has the full path and that you
are tetsing in
the browser. You won't be able to see anything in DW

Flash media player errors

On certain websites such as Myspace and PureVolume, the
embedded flash media players refuse to work; instead returning a
message such as "Error Loading XML Document". At first, I could
activate the standalone playeroption and the player would function
as it was intended. Now it has gotten to the point that the players
won't work at all. and it happens on my work PC running Win2000 and
my home PC running XP home. I have tried upgrading to flashplayer
8,0,22,0, I tried reinstalling the older version of flash, updating
IE, reinstalling IE, restoring my security settings in IE to their
defaults and all for naught. and nobody on any of the usenet groups
knows what the problem is and nobody at Myspace or PureVolume know
what to do about it either. What could cause the error message? I
suspect it might be a registry key problem of some sort but that
kind of thing is waaaay over my head.
Any ideas from you guys at macromedia?

Here's what I recommend..
1. Get the -exact- error messages. If you can get some screen
shots and
post them to the web all the better.
2. Open a support case with Myspace and PureVolume. As the
Flash/Flash
Media Server developers they have the ability to open support
cases with
Adobe. I'd suggest you ask them to do so.

Flash media player and proxy

Not sure if this is the correct forum to use for this question... so if I'm in the wrong place - let me know.
Am streaming video using a Flash media server and the FLV Playback component. Actionscript 2. Our company goes to the internet through a proxy. Here's what's happening: When we try to play the video from our workstations the player tries to go directly to the server instead of going through the proxy. It fails a couple of times then may or may not go through the proxy. Is there a way to make the FLV Playback component go directly through the proxy without waiting for it to fail? Can't find code for that?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
The videos work fine for me with Safari 2.0.2 and OS X 10.4.3. The section of the help file you quoted appears to be referring to a corporate firewall setup rather than a typical home setup - you shouldn't need to change any of the defaults for Windows Media Player.
A Google search for that error code you received mentions Flip4Mac in a couple of places - do you have that installed?
If so, try disabling it to see if that is the cause of your issues.

Flash Media player - mp3 playback using CS3

I have an audio clip which is in MP3. It is about 7:30 min:sec in length consisting of 10 tracks each a teaser clip lasting from 30 to 50 seconds each with a brief fade out / fade in between each track. Each track has a song name. Here is what I would like to design a page as follows:
As each track is played I would like to show the viewer the name of the song. It could be a simple animation where the name is visible during the duration of the clip. The text title could also be static for all simplistic purpose. And so the same for rest of the tracks.
The background image of the page would be a static JPEG image.
Any ideas as how to approach this using CS3 Flash and Dreamweaver.
thank you.
If the above seems convoluted, I would also would like to know how to setup a media player with individual tracks (each separate MP3 teaser), showing the track titles.
thank you
Subha

Does each track have an ID3 tag? Probably not I think you can only have 1 per mp3. You could splice the mp3 into 10 seperate mp3's, edit in ID3 tags (ID3 editors are available for free just do a search)and use actionscript to extract the tag info and print in a textfield.
