OSMF 1.6 - StageVideo issue

Hi everyone,
I have some troubles with StageVideo and OSMF 1.6 : The stream is well played but the video is hidden and the sound is active. Below my config :
wmode : direct/transparant
OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = false/true
I have the same troubles with Strobe Media Playback.
Even if I switch between wmode and OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo values (direct/transparent - true/false), my video is still hidden (audio is active).
Hope someone can help me.
Yvan

Hi Silviu,
Yes wmode is set to "direct" and OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo is set to "true".
I have tested it with http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/setup.html, config :
wmode: direct/transparent (both tested, same behavior)
source: http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf
type: live (rtmp stream)
enableStageVideo: true or false (both tested, same behavior)

Thanks Very much for the reply.
This issue came to development (we) through Support team only. Did you mean DB Team Support?.
Also please let us know about the workaround suggested by DB Team.
Thanks in advance.

StageVideo issues with IE10

I work in a support role for Longtail Video and we create the JW Player.
In JW Player 6 we enabled StageVideo by default, but we see a consistent amount of support requests come in that is very concerning.
We see regular reports that no video shows in IE10 if they embed our player with StageVideo enabled. When people go fullscreen, the video does show though. This kinda implicates that the issue would somehow be related to a compositing layer inside the Flash player.
We consistently see that this issue is isolated to IE10 (both Windows 7 and 8) only; on the same machines Firefox and Chrome will display the video normally inline too. We have seen reports both with AMD cards and with Intel cards, the latest report of this issue that we saw had the following specs:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1
Flash ver. in IE10: 11,7,700,224
graphics card: Intel HD Graphics 1000 (GT1)
driver ver.: 8.15.10.2509
Unfortunately we have never had access to a machine where we could reproduce this issue ourselves, but on average we see this issue pop up once or twice per week.
In the setup code of our player it is trivial to disable stagevideo, and we see that when our player does not use stagevideo, the issue goes away immediately, so the easiest solution is to disable StageVideo by default, but stagevideo should never fail in this way.
Do you have any idea what might be going on here and if there is a better solution other than not using StageVideo across the board?
If this is the wrong forum for this question please let me know.

Daniel,
Please see attached screen shot from BI 4.0 w/ SP5+ PAM explaining IE 10 support. You need to be running BI 4.0 w/ SP6 or higher to get support IE 10.

StageVideo application crash on mobile devices.

Hello everyone.
The last few months, I've been having trouble with StageVideo on selected Android devices and as of today on all iOS 7 devices.
When I try to switch between the currently playing video and a new one, after a random number of toggles, the application crashes. With the latest update of the iOS, the maximum videos I toggle on my NetStream object is 2, which is extraordinary for a machine such as iPad 4.
I create all the objects that are nessesary to play a video as I should and check the StageVideo availability on my device so I'm sure that this is a StageVideo issue.
Here is some of my code:
            // Connections
            nc = new NetConnection();
            nc.connect(null);
            ns = new NetStream(nc);
            ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
            ns.client = this;
            // Screen
            video = new Video();
            video.smoothing = true;
            // Video Events
            // the StageVideoEvent.STAGE_VIDEO_STATE informs you if StageVideo is available or not
            stage.addEventListener(StageVideoAvailabilityEvent.STAGE_VIDEO_AVAILABILITY, onStageVideoState);
            // in case of fallback to Video, we listen to the VideoEvent.RENDER_STATE event to handle resize properly and know about the acceleration mode running
            video.addEventListener(VideoEvent.RENDER_STATE, videoStateChange);
        private function onStageVideoState(event:StageVideoAvailabilityEvent):void
            // Detect if StageVideo is available and decide what to do in toggleStageVideo
            toggleStageVideo(available = inited = (event.availability == StageVideoAvailability.AVAILABLE));
        private function toggleStageVideo(on:Boolean):void
            // If we choose StageVideo we attach the NetStream to StageVideo
            if (on)
                stageVideoInUse = true;
                if ( sv == null )
                    sv = stage.stageVideos[0];
                    sv.addEventListener(StageVideoEvent.RENDER_STATE, stageVideoStateChange);
                sv.attachNetStream(ns);
                if (classicVideoInUse)
                    // If we use StageVideo, we just remove from the display list the Video object to avoid covering the StageVideo object (always in the background)
                    stage.removeChild ( video );
                    classicVideoInUse = false;
            } else
                // Otherwise we attach it to a Video object
                if (stageVideoInUse)
                    stageVideoInUse = false;
                classicVideoInUse = true;
                video.attachNetStream(ns);
                stage.addChildAt(video, 0);
            if ( !played )
                played = true;
                ns.play(_videoURL1);
I would be grateful for any help I could get.

Hi
The issue "Unable to set the transaction attribute for method 'retrieveUserInfo(Login)' on EJB 'UserBean'. No matching method could be found." seems like a known issue.
There is a workaround to update the build.xml of the ejb project, to avoid this issue. The bug number for the issue is
CR302494
You can create a support case at http://support.bea.com and refer to the CR (CR302494) and a support enginner can guide you through the workaround.

Captioning Plugin - loading a local DFXP file?

Hi,
I am creating a CD-Rom presentation, the requirements of which are Video and multi-language captioning.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to gain experience with OSMF.
The first issue I have found is I can not get captioning to work from a local file.
To help me understand the framework I thought I would build the Captioning Sample (osmf_source_s08/apps/samples/plugins/CaptioningSample)
I am an FDT user rather than Flash Builder and have rebuilt the example as a Pure AS3 project, swapping Flex components for Flash CS3 components. Everything compiles and video with captioning works well.
As I mentioned I am creating a CD-Rom so I need to load local files rather than over the internet.
I can load local video by changing:
private static const STREAM_URL : String = "flv/tests/video.flv";
loadMedia ( STREAM_URL );
private function loadMedia(url:String):void
     var resource : IURLResource = new URLResource ( new FMSURL ( url ) );
to
private function loadMedia(url:String):void
     var resource : IURLResource = new URLResource ( new URL ( url ) );
Which works well, however changing the caption URL to a local path
private static const CAPTION_URL : String = "flv/tests/caption.xml";
stops the whole application and the video does not play.
Can anyone offer any assistance on how I might get this working?
Thanks in advance,
George.

Hi Brian,
Yes, first test appear to show that works
I commented out lines (for me 73-76) in the HTTPLoader canHandleResource method:
if (urlResource.url.protocol.search(/http$|https$/i) == -1)
     return false;
and now my captions appear.
I will now run some further tests.
Thank you
George

Issue w/ OSMF DVRCast w/ use of 'raw:' (bug?)

OSMF 1.6.1/2.0 / Strobe Live issue : Framework can't handle an empty f4m descriptor?

Hi,
suppose that in a live media stream, the f4m descriptor just contains the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/1.0">
<id>live2</id>
<mimeType>video/mp4</mimeType>
<streamType>live</streamType>
<deliveryType>streaming</deliveryType>
</manifest>
The official Strobe Player can’t handle this situation (see answers to comments in http://www.osmf.org/dev/1.5gm/setup.html, I tried Strobe 1.5 and I get an error when connecting) so I wonder if this is a general issue with OSMF, as I haven’t been able to make it work with my own OSMF-based player (I tried both 1.6.1 and 2.0).
On the other hand in my attempts, after Flash Media Live Encoder has started streaming and the Wowza server fills the f4m descriptor with media-related data, I can load Strobe or my own OSMF-based player and the playback starts without problems.
<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/1.0">
<id>live2</id>
<width>480</width>
<height>360</height>
<mimeType>video/mp4</mimeType>
<streamType>live</streamType>
<deliveryType>streaming</deliveryType>
<bootstrapInfo id="bootstrap478000" profile="named" url="playlist_b478000_w478000.abst" />
<media bootstrapInfoId="bootstrap478000" width="480" height="360" bitrate="466" url="media_b478000_w478000.abst/">
<metadata>AgAKb25NZXRhRGF0YQMACXRyYWNraW5mbwoAAAABAwAEdHlwZQIABWF1ZGlvAAZjb25maWcCAAQxNDA4AAtkZXNjcmlwdGlvbgIAV3tBQUNG
</manifest>
So my conclusion is: currently I must not open the player before the event starts (which I cannot know in advance of course), or it will find an empty f4m and will get stuck unless the web page embedding it gets reloaded.
Is there a way to solve it? I tried with OSMF 1.6.1 and OSMF 2 in my custom player and strobe 1.5 .
p.s.
i tried to submit this as a bug here : http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FM ( www.osmf.org => bug submit ) registering an user, but i have not the permission to post here.

Hi,
the bugbase has moved to https://bugbase.adobe.com/
AMS usually populates the needed fields with correct information - therefore the tests did not cover the wowza "empty" non-standard f4ms.
As a workaround, I would suggest a web page that would allow access to the stream only after the stream starts, otherwise showing a "plate". This could be done either server-side or in JS.

Adobe AIR : Issue with StageVideo FullScreen on MacBook w/ Retina

Has anyone run into an issue with StageVideo running in FullScreen mode on high-res monitors, such as a MacBook Pro with retina?
The issue I'm seeing is that the video runs fine if the application is windowed, but when it goes full screen, the video display is cropped to a quarter of the MacBook Pro screen size. The rest of the viewable area is black.
Things worth knowing:
Fullscreen works perfect on lower-res monitors
This only happens on a MacBook Pro in the ADL Preview OR when requestedDisplayResolution is set to TRUE in the Application Descriptor file.
If requestedDisplayResolution is set to FALSE, and your run the application (outside of ADL Preview), FullScreen works fine.
I'm setting the viewport with stageVideo.viewPort = new Rectangle( 0 , 0 , 1440 , 900 );
I haven't been able to find any information out there on this.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-m

According to the docs (StageVideo - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference):
The absolute position and size of the video surface in pixels.
The position of the video is relative to the upper left corner of the stage.
The valid range of the x and y properties of the viewPort Rectangle object are -8192 to 8191. Therefore, you can position the video completely or partially off the stage. You can also make the video larger than the stage if you make the width and height properties of the viewPort property larger than the stage.
It seems like you need to pass the full stage width and height to the stageView.viewPort call. Currently you're hardcoding it to 1440 x 900, what is the actual dimensions of your screen?

I am not sure how to fix the problem using the FGL framework, but here is a way to get the right result
In the CSS file under the @media only screen and (min-width: 769px) section, modify the following style rules
#menu {
    clear: both;
    float: left;
    margin-left: 0;
    width: 20%;
    display: block;
    vertical-align:top;
#content {
    clear: none;
    float: right;
    margin-right: 0%;
    width: 80%;
    display: block;
Having said that, you will do well to scrap FGL and have a look at Bootstrap

Hi Chanh
I have not come upto the level of testing the file generated with IRS. Will keep you posted what happens there.
Shannon,
Apparently the new version of 1546868 fixes the issue for box number 7. But if the amounts are huge in box numbers 1 or 3 or 15a (they use these in my client) then the amount overflows to the nearby box. So we have again opened an issue again with SAP & will keep you posted withwhat SAP comes up with.
Thanks

OSMF VPAID Issue

Hello,
I am currently working on the current iteration of the OSMF framework. I am attempting to create a player that accepts both VAST(1.0 & 2.0), VPAID and companion ads. I am experiencing a few issues with VPAID.
--ISSUE BELOW--
Currently the player supports VAST Ads and streaming (minus click tracking and going to a landing page for vast 1.0 ads). However, VPAID does not display in the player, I've verified that the player is calling for ad.swf in Firebug. The player in return is not displaying the VPAID ad. I assume what is happening is that there is some error when triggering VPAID in the player, that or the player is just simply not calling the VPAID events to display the ad.
Right now the flow of the player is Player > MAST > VAST > VPAID > AD, I've attempted bypassing all of that and just directing VPAID straight to the ad. Which worked, but only for the example URL that was given in VPAIDAdSequencingUnitTest.as, that being this url:
http://cdn1.eyewonder.com/200125/instream/documentation_test_tags/vpaid/as3/VPAID_2_0.swf? adLoaderWidth=320&adLoaderHeight=240&cp=http://cdn.eyewonder.com/100125/754851/1262098/&lo aderCreative=Linear_Interactive_Holder_as3.swf%3Fcp%3Dhttp%3A//cdn.eyewonder.com/100125/75 4851/1262098/%26ewbase%3Dhttp%3A//cdn.eyewonder.com/100125/754851/1262098/%26adLoaderWidth %3D300%26adLoaderHeight%3D225%26hAlign%3Dcenter%26vAlign%3Dmiddle%26keywordNames%3Dinstrea m_VAST_2_0_TEST%26keywordIDs%3D%5B103%5D%26ewbust%3D%5Btimestamp%5D&adInstreamType=fixedro ll&adTagAlignHorizontal=center&adTagAlignVertical=middle&adMode=prog&qaReportUUID=common
This URL loads a loader.swf that appears to interrupt VPAID and then loads the ad inside of it. This was made by eyewonder and I do not have access to this.
Is there not full support for VPAID inside the current framework, or am I implementing it wrong or missing something? I've been working with this for about a week now and have tight deadline and would love to have some light shed on this problem! I am willing to package up the source code and sent it to whom ever. Also if it would be easier to direct me to a working example of a simple VAST/VPAID player that I don't know about, that would be just as suitable!
Thank you everyone for your time,
Matthew Hardnack

I got in contact with someone from Adobe directly and will be directed to the developer at EyeWonder, who made the VPAID loader.swf. So that I may get the libraries for the loader. I will also mention the lack of the main library for this loader, so that others might be able to use VPAID in OSMF as well.
Thank you everyone for your time.

OSMF SWF verification issues...

Hi,
I am having some sporadic issues with OSMF implementation of DRM / SWF verification.
Under some (as yet murky, but semi-replicable...) circumstances, it is possible to get the licence download to stall in a way that crashes the licence process and so blocks play of _all_ protected content. This block remains in place after browser restart etc. and can occasionally require manual "Deauthorize this computer" and browser cache clearance etc. to resume. The closest I have come to a reliable way to replicate the issue is to place a manual block on the licence request to delay it by a second or two which can reliably crash playback of protected content... but it only works on selected PCs.
As we haven't yet managed to isolate the cause enough to get Adobe's assistance, I am asking for any potential avenues for detecting / debugging / diagnosing the issue?
I have tried adding listeners to all available events on the OSMF DRMTrait but all this will tell me is either uninitialized, authenticationError or authenticationComplete. (Seemingly, the other DRMState values are either unused or unreported.) Equally, the changes for these seem to happen too quickly to display them on screen.
G

Hi,
As of now, you cannot use SWFVerification to protect HTTP Streaming, as HTTP Streaming does not require connection with core process of FMS, but request is handled by f4f module in apache. The current way to ensure protection of HTTP streams is to use Flash Access for encryption of fragments. You can find more about Flash Access here at http://www.adobe.com/products/flashaccess/
Thanks,
Abhishek
