Stop streaming video?

Hi all,
I hope I'm posting this in the correct form. I have Googled
this topic as well as searched through previous forum posts, but
have not found an answer to this question anywhere.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I'm using CF8 for a site, and I am embedding a flv live
streaming video. The site will have 2 types of users, Paying users
and Non-Paying users. Both sets of users can view the flv streaming
video. For the non-paying users I want to be able to stop the live
video dynamically after n-number of minutes, and then give them a
prompt on screen "Please sign up now to continue watching the
stream.". Can this be accomplished with Flash? If so, do you have
any examples or can you explain how to do this in Flash?
Thanks

both the netstream class and the flvplayback component have
pause() methods that will stop the video streaming.

  • Stopping streaming video with cue points

    I've been searching for a solution to this problem for weeks now. All i want to do is make a video streaming in a video object to stop on a cue point, and play from abother when a button is pushed. It's relatively simple, right? Wrong. Over a hundred $s in how-to books and several hours wasted searching online later and I have nothing. I have checked and re-checked the cuepoints are correct (i made them in flash video encoder CS3) and tried just about everything as far as AS is concerned. Here is my latest attempt: (obmintro is the player instance name, i have the rtmp info in source under player parameters and it plays fine)
    import fl.video.MetadataEvent;
    obmintro.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cp_listener);
    function cp_listener(eventObject:Object):void
    if (eventObject.object.name == "site_end");
      obmintro.pause();
    //i have also used stop, stop("obmintro"); and i don't even know what else.
    please tell me what i'm doing wrong and how it's really supposed to be done. i'm feeling very hopeless and blonde right now. help a girl out?

    you're welcome.
    for anyone else with a similar issue, using the info property of the MetadataEvent is the correct way to proceed.  (that event has no object property.)

  • I cannot stop streaming video....

    hi,
    i have a video object on my stage and i make it play by using ns.play();
    However,  when i want to stop playing by ns.close(), i see from httpfox that  streaming doesnt stop but continues. is there any way to really stop  steaming anytime i want?
    it is same when i use FLVPlayback  component. when i assign path to its source attribute, it starts  streaming without saying it to play..

    Launch the Videos app. Tap on the movies button at the top. Tap the edit button in the upper right corner and the X to delete will appear on the movie icon. Tap the X to delete the movie.
    If you see a cloud icon on the movie icon, it is not on your iPad. But you can hide it in Settings>iTunes and App Store>Show all>Videos>Off.

  • My computer will no longer stream videos? The videos are choppy and show static?

    Hello! My macbook pro just recently stopped streaming videos from facebook, youtube, hulu, etc... The videos are choppy and show static. The sound play back is fine but the picture is definitely unclear. I was hoping that there was a simple solution to this as I have never had an issue with this computer before.
    Thanks,
    Charlotte

    Thanks, Lawrence. I figured that was what I was going to have to do in the end. I have a few games with quite a few hours invested, and I worry that I'll lose the progress I have as they do not save to the cloud. I may have to bite the bullet, and just take the plunge to resolve this. I just want a way to easily transfer my "Home Computer" for my iPhone. My laptop is years old and in need of being replaced, and it's about time to upgrade my phone. These life events piling up are making me consider switching to a friendlier OS. I'm not using this as a threat. I just hope some apple high up will read this, and realize that we need alternatives. Life happens.
    Thank you both Paul and Lawrence. I clicked "This helped me" not knowing it would remove the option to choose "This fixed my problem" too. For anyone else reading this thread. Using the guide provided has done both. It has helped me and given me a fix to my current problem. Lawrence has also provided me with the last bit of information I feel is missing from wjosten's guide. That syncing will completely erase all of your data and reinstall it in one fell swoop. It's a great fix. Even if it isn't the exact one I wanted. Thank you again!

  • Streaming video issues

    Does anyone know why the imac stops streaming video every 10 seconds?

    Steam's having issues? At least in my area, Steam has absolutely no problem. Double check what download region you're pulling from (pick it not based on geography but based on where your data is ending up. For example, Toronto is closer to me than New York City is, but NYC is closer path-wise than Toronto) and make sure you're not bottlenecking on Disk I/O now that Steam doesn't use Cache files for the games.
    As for YouTube and Netflix, I have no advice short of suggesting a VPN for these. Yeah it shouldn't be needed, but in the grand scheme of things neither Google or Verizon tells us where the problem is publicly. When the problem is either at the peering point or in Google's network, I'm led to believe it's a Google problem. For Netflix? Verizon doesn't have to contribute to Open Connect (in essence remaining a NEUTRAL provider) but it would be nice to have since Netflix would be paying for the equipment. Can't say so much for the bandwidth though.

  • My ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  does not happen with any other streaming video service.

    my ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  This does not happen with any other streaming video service.  I have restarted and rebooted already. 

    I've tried both things, but video still stutters.. Have also tried removing profile, and complete reinstall of firefox.
    I'm on 24 Mbit cable and the only user atm. IE and Chrome seems to work without stuttering.
    I've having this stuttering every ~5th second, like a small "1/4 sec buffering".

  • Streaming videos stop mid-stream

    I am having ongoing issues with watching streaming videos. Any video - Youtube, Quicktime (e.g. from the Apple site), etc. - only partially loads and plays. Sometimes reloading the webpage gets me further, but often it will stop again. This happens on all the browsers I use: Safari, Firefox and Chrome. It also happens on both my Macbook Pro and my daughter's Macbook (also running 10.6.2). It doesn't happen on the Windows computer on our network.

    Check your internet connection speeds. My speed is way lower than it should be. Like more than 10x slower in OSX than in Win7 on the same iMac. I think the problem is there. Try speedtest.net to see what you get. Run it immediately after booting and then try running it again. I get a fast initial run and then it drops to a fraction of that initial speed. Almost like a buffer or something fills up and then slows everything down. So far I have not figured this one out.

  • TS1398 My wifi signal in my iphone 4 is very poor it wasn't the same before. When ever I try to play video it stopes streaming. I hope apple has an answer for this.

    I do not experience any problem browsing Internet or using social networks via wifi but whenever I play a video from YouTube or any other source it stopes streaming after playing 10 to 15 sec video, doesn't matter how close I am from the homehub or which Internet provider I am using. Recently I am experiencing that my phone became slow after installing the new iOS 6.1.2. Application takes time to open. Sometimes application closes on there won without any command. The key l board became slower. I wish I could get the previous version of iOS which was perfect for my iPhone 4.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Reset all settings                  
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • HT1273 watching a streaming video, picture and voice shaking & stops on it's own.

    Trying to watch a Streaming video, picture and voice shaking and stops on it's own.

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • Why does mirroring with airplay always stop when streaming videos?

    When streaming video from my iPad2 to AppleYV using mirroring, the video is always stopping to buffer. How can I fix that?

    When streaming video from my iPad2 to AppleYV using mirroring, the video is always stopping to buffer. How can I fix that?

  • Will increasing the buffer size make flash streaming video stop stalling?

    I have surmised all this on my own so it could be just a fantasy, but:
    I am often the victim of slow internet connections. This means that when I try and watch streaming video it constantly pauses. It's my understanding that increasing the buffer size of flash would help prevent this but I can't figure out how to do that.
    Thanks

    You can pause the video just long enough for the player to load enough content. Most Flash player show a loading bar if you hover the player. For short pieces you can load the entire content before starting the play.

  • I have a m2007 macbook connected to my wireless network using time capsule.  I stream video to the macbook, but often get start stop of the streaming, but no wheel to indicate a buffering issue.  Can I resolve this with higher speed internet and cable mod

    I'm wondering if my cable internet is too slow for wireless streaming of videos to other macbooks.  Any help will be appreciated

    Can you clarify whether you are asking about video that you are streaming from the Internet to your Mac through the Time Capsule?
    Or, are you asking about streaming video that is already stored on the Time Capsule to your Mac?
    In either case, what happens....video quality wise..... if you test by temporarily turning off the wirelss on the Mac and then connecting it to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule using a spare Ethernet cable for a few hours?

  • Streaming video stops when initiate closed captioning

    So our company has a streaming video feed coming from the folks over at quickplay.com.
    All was good watching the streaming video in Safari (iOS 8 and Mac 10.10)...UNTIL you turn on closed captioning. Now anytime you load the feed you get a "Missing plug-in" message with "This page contains content of “application/vnd.apple.mpegurl” type. You do not have the plug-in required to view this content."
    Close/restart Safari, or rebooting does nothing...happens on the Mac and iPhone. So I came across the enable Accessibility options for closed captioning on both devices in Settings and nothing.
    One of our staff needs to view this feed with the CC on to monitor it. So I guess first where on both devices is it caching the preference to use CC and making them unable to stream the feed any longer. And then...why is this not working?

    What is the subject matter of these FLVs? 
    If it's Captivate screen captures, then you could have added the CC text to each slide if you had left them as FMV slides.
    However, if the video content is of other things, e.g. people talking or some type of action captured with a video camera, then I believe your best solution would be to add the Closed Captioning in whatever tool you used to edit and publish the video. 
    As I mentioned before, Captivate doesn't really provide a mechanism for adding CC text to on screen objects that contain audio in any form.  So for example, you cannot add CC text to an SWF that you've inserted as an animation, even though you can record and add audio to that SWF in Captivate.  Videos are in a similar position, except that they usually don't have their audio added in Captivate.  They mostly come with their audio track built in.  This means the only real way to guarantee good synchronisation of the CC text is to have it embedded in the video as well.
