URL Variables used to set the source property for the VIDEO COMP.

Can you take a url variable and have that variable be the value for the source parameter of the video playback component in flash CS4 or CS5?
Example:
the url with url variable:   http://www.mydomain.com/videos/videoplayer.cfm?vplayer=videofile1
the actionscript 3.0
var videoFile:String = [who do I get the url variable's value here?]
myVideoPlayer.source = videoFile +".mp4"
in the end the file that should be playing in the video player is:   videofile1.mp4
Thanks.

Either
A) Using ExternalInterface, call a Javascript function that returns window.location.search
B) Use Javascript to create FlashVars from window.location.search

    i want to create an external video widget with iAd to use in an iBook. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.
    hope someone can help!

    May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget.  I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field,  the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
    It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you. 
    Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

  • Does anybody have the source code for playing video..?

    Hi i am new to J2ME. Does any body have the source code for playing video?

    The WTK includes a video player example. I would start by looking there. In addtion SE and Nokia (if I remember correctly) both have video examples on their developer web sites.
    The developer sites are

  • I'm downloading using RealPlayer But the video playback is jerky.  The audio playback is OK.   Can anyone suggest a solution.  Would upgrading to RealPlayer Plus be a good thing to do?

    I'm downloading using RealPlayer But the video playback is jerky.  The audio playback is OK.  
    Please can anyone suggest a solution. 
    PS Would upgrading to RealPlayer Plus help?

    I can't understand how internet speeds can be the cause of the problem.  My problem with a jerky playback is that I have already down loaded.   Could this be to do with my computer (I maybe able to persuade my wife that I need a new one).  Earlier I was listening to a clip of the MJQ, downloaded from UTube, and although the sound was good the picture was not.
    My computer is an iMac with an Intel Core 2 Duo with a processing speed of 2.8 Ghz.  Does this information help?

  • [Exchange-Online][EWS][c#][Windows 8.1] When creating appointment using impersonation "Set action is invalid for property" error occurs.

    I have an Outlook add-in that creates appointments to a load of Office 365 calendars. It used to work well but suddenly I have hit a problem.
    The basic calling code is
    Appointment appointment = new Appointment(exchangeService);
       appointment.Subject = subject;
       appointment.Body = body;
       appointment.Location = location;
       appointment.IsAllDayEvent = allDay;
       appointment.LegacyFreeBusyStatus = LegacyFreeBusyStatus.Busy;
       appointment.IsOnlineMeeting = false;
       appointment.Save(SendInvitationsMode.SendToNone);
    This still works fine on my own Office 365 mailbox but if I switch to another, using Impersonation, the Save line now throws the error "Set action is invalid for property."
    There does not seem to be a problem with impersonation. The line
    exchangeService.ImpersonatedUserId = new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, selectedUserEmail);
    runs OK and afterwards the exchangeService's ImpersonatedUserID gives the correct email address.
    If I look at the appointment object in the Watch window immediately after the line that creates it has run I can see that most of the properties have an entry like:
    appointment.AdjacentMeetingCount' threw an exception of type 'Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ServiceObjectPropertyException'.
    Also, several properties including Subject are not listed in the expanded appointment object in the Watch window.
    However, entering appointments.Subject explicitly in the Watch window does give the correct result.
    I have used the floating watch to check the value of each property straight after it is set and each one is as expected.
    I am at a loss as to what to check next and would be grateful for all ideas.
    Mike VE

    Thanks for the reply Jason. I did as you suggested and found that it was the IsOnlineMeeting that caused the problem. Once that was commented out everything worked as expected. On checking I see that this property is ReadOnly for everyone except the
    organizer of the meeting. Clearly the Impersonate role is not regarded as the organiser.
    I don't think it is going to matter so long as the user in whose calendar the appointment is created has fully access to the appointment, which seems to be the case.
    Thanks for your help.

  • URL filtering using NBAR on the ASR1000 / 9000

    I've been asked to provide Internet Watch Foundation filtering on a router facing off to an ISP. This is a list of 8-900 URLs which is updated daily. Could this be done using NBAR on the ASR1000 or 9000? Has anyone done anything like this before? I'm sort of thinking of some sort of TCL script to do the update.

    not quite the same, but a question...
    the asr9k does not currently support nbar, is it on a road map?    anyone know?
    thanks in advance.

  • Setting read-only property for a RTL inputtext.

    HI,
    I am using JDeveloper version 11.1.2.2.0. In my fusion web application, in the af:inputtext field, if the language is, RTL or LTR the value is displaying according to that. Suppose, if it is English, the value is displaying left to right. If it is, Arabic, the value is displaying from left to right. But if I set the column value is read-only, everything is displaying as left to right. Here is the code of my input text field.
    <af:column sortProperty="#{bindings.PhraseTranslationView3.hints.Description.name}"
    sortable="true"
    headerText="#{bundle['PhraseTranslation.des']}"
    id="c5">
    <af:inputText value="#{row.Description}" id="ot6"
    inlineStyle="border-style:none; overflow:hidden;border-color:rgb(255,255,255);direction:#{row.TextDirection};border-width:thin;height:16px; font-weight:bold; color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:8.0pt;font-family:Arial Unicode MS;"
    label="Label 6">
    </af:inputText>
    </af:column>
    What is going wrong in this?

    Yeah, I have set it to 'True'. If I set it, the value is not displaying from left to right.
    Here is the code.
    <af:inputText value="#{row.Description}" id="ot6"
    inlineStyle="border-style:none; overflow:hidden;border-color:rgb(255,255,255);direction:#{row.TextDirection};border-width:thin;height:16px; font-weight:bold; color:rgb(0,0,0); font-size:8.0pt;font-family:Arial Unicode MS;"

  • Best settings to use when preparing HD source material for iDVD?

    I realize iDVD is effectively abandonware, and that it was never really designed either to run on Lion nor to import high definition content...but nevertheless here I am (somewhat unavoidably) trying to do both and constantly getting the dreaded and mysterious "an error occured during movie encoding" result when I try to burn or export my project to a disc image.
    If it matters, I am using a Mac Pro (1,1) with a 5770, running 10.7.5 with 8GB of RAM and oodles of free diskspace. All of my software is fully up to date, including iDVD 7.1.2 build 1158. Several utilities report nothing erroneous with my drives or their filesystems. I have made sure Perian is not installed. I have tried to create and export this DVD using both my primary user account and a clean dummy one I made for testing purposes.
    After considerable trial and error experiments, each taking several hours to attempt, I've decided that I'm never going to easily figure out exacty which of my many various source files for this project (holiday videos for family) may be giving iDVD hiccups. Instead, I've decided to take another approach, making all of my content as easy to "spoon feed" to iDVD as possible. Hopefully then I can get this project done.
    My question is what, ideally, does iDVD like to be fed?
    For starters, I am in the process of transcoding and repackaging all of my content through MPEG Streamclip to be AIC video and uncompressed audio inside MOV containers. In each case I am scaling the video down to be 480 lines tall. Just guessing, but that seems like it would give iDVD the least possible work to "think" about and get confused. Does that sound about right to folks?
    Should I be doing something drastic and old school like trying to create DV files? My content is all wide aspect, intended for a 16:9 iDVD project and that seems like it would get tricky (also, this would involve more quality loss than using AIC files).
    I am totally open to suggestions here. Just please don't say "dude, use Toast" or something because while I have plenty of other tools that I know would work more easily and reliably, I really want to mimic the holiday discs from previous years that I've created using the same iDVD theme.

    I haven't had to wrestle with this problem, but I've followed some of the discussions and here are several ideas and resources which seem reasonable.  As background, have you read about better results from using iMovie6?  Also, as you imply, DV Stream (.dv) was the native format for iDVD.

    ...and don't forget David Pogue's "Missing Manual" series for iMovie and iDVD are excellent resources.

  • Setting Non-Editable property for selected Rows in jTable

    Hi,
    I want particular rows to be set non-editable within a jTable. For example. If I have seven rows as follows:
    1
    2 - (Non-editable)
    3
    4
    5 - (Non-editable)
    6
    7
    I want to set non-Editable property to the second & Fifth Rows(say) alone. Other Rows, I may edit.
    How can I do this?
    Thanks in adv.

    TableModel has method
    boolean isCellEditable(int rowIndex,
    int columnIndex)
    so you need to make your table model return false for these rows.

  • How to set the video's time?

    there is a control named VideoPlayer (not VideoDisplay), and it has a porperty named currentTime which is ReadOnly, so I can only read the time! but how can I set the time.
    for example, when I press one button, I need the video play from 3min, How to?
    thanks!

    A funciton like this should help
                private function jump():void
                    vp.seek(50);
    vp being the name of the videoplayer and (50) being the time you want to jump to in seconds

  • How do you use a photo as a placeholder for a video in ibooks author?

    I am having trouble in ibooks author, I am trying to use a still photo as the place holder for a video, so what I want to do is when you click on the picture, a video will start playing. If anyone knows how to do it, please let me know, thanks!

    iBooks Author lets you use an image, such as a .PNG (even one with transparency) as a poster image for your video. When tapped, this image will open your video in full-screen mode.
    To do this, first drag your video file onto the page in iBooks Author to create a video widget. Select the widget and, in the Inspector panel under the Widget options, choose the Interaction tab, and check "Full-screen only" (Note: Using a separate image as a placeholder will only work if this option is checked).
    Next, simply find the photo file you'd like to use as your poster image—it can be any file, not necessarily a frame from your video—and drag it over the video widget on the page until you see the edges highlighted in blue, and release. That image is now the placeholder for the video, and when tapped it will launch your video in full-screen mode.
