VideoDisplay and events question and looping the video?

Question

i have a flex ap that starts a video via a button click, i also have an event handle to detect when the video is finished
code sample below
private function loadandstartvideo(event:Event):void
          var thisvideo:VideoDisplay = VideoDisplay.getChildbyName("thisvid")
          thisvideo.removeevent(event.Complete,videoDisplay)
          thisvideo.source = "path/to/vid/"
          thisvideo.addeventListen(event.complete,restartvid)
          thisvideo.play();
private function restartvid(event:Event):void
          var thisvideo:VideoDisplay = VideoDisplay.getChildbyName("thisvid")
          thisvideo.play()
the above code is not the exact code the problem i have is that the loadandstart switched the video just fine but the restartvid function never gets called?
anyone have a clue? if you need the exact code i can post it.

Answer 1

here is the actual code. i poisted the other post from a different computer...
playinto is the function called from the button click
private function playintro(boardID:Number):void
        introIndex = boardID;
        var boxid:Number = boardID - 1;
        var vidBoxName:String = "hwsVid" + String(boardID);
        var vidBox:VideoDisplay = VideoDisplay(HWSDisplay.getChildByName(vidBoxName));
        vidBox.source = "path to vid;
        tempWidth = vidBox.width;
        tempHeight = vidBox.height;
        tempX = vidBox.x;
        tempY = vidBox.y;
        vidBox.x = 0;
        vidBox.y = 0;
        vidBox.height = Number(disHeight.text)
        vidBox.width = Number(disWidth.text)
        vidBox.maintainAspectRatio = false;
        var tempVidBox:VideoDisplay = new VideoDisplay;
        var tempBoxName:String = "";
        var a:Number;
        for (a=1;a<10;a++)
                if (a != boardID)
                        tempBoxName = "hwsVid" + String(a);
                        tempVidBox = VideoDisplay(HWSDisplay.getChildByName(tempBoxName));
                        tempVidBox.visible = false;
        vidBox.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onIntroComplete)
        vidBox.play()
private function onIntroComplete(event:Event):void
        var vidBox2:VideoDisplay = VideoDisplay(event.currentTarget);
        vidBox2.removeEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE,onIntroComplete)
        vidBox2.source = "path to loop vid;
        vidBox2.x = tempX;
        vidBox2.y = tempY;
        vidBox2.height = tempHeight;
        vidBox2.width = tempWidth;
        vidBox2.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE,restartVidLoop)
private function restartVidLoop(event:VideoEvent):void
        var vidBox:VideoDisplay = VideoDisplay(event.currentTarget);
        vidBox.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,restartVidLoop);
        vidBox.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,restartVidLoop);
        vidBox.play();
