It happens to us all sooner or later. You have a video file you want to share on your blog or website, but what are your choices? Youtube or Adobe’s video skins? That’s why I built this video player.

What’s nice is you uploaded the flash file once and through the embedding code and FlashVars you can manipulate the look of the player, what video to play, and a poster frame. I really wanted to build an video player that I could quickly get new video files up on the web and have it look better than the typical flash flv player. And another problem I’ve had with files in the past was sizing the flash area. You always had to account for 20px at the bottom for the player controls… not this one. You simple set the height and width to the same as the video file you want to display and you’re done.

This flash player plays all your typical flash and h.264 video files (.flv, .mov, .mp4, .m4v, etc). Give it a try. Give it a try.

In the sample file it happens from time to time, because they’re such short video clips. It has to do with the buffer and the playhead. Refresh and it goes away, or if you use a longer video clip it on appears when the video is buffering.

Do you have to touch any in the fla, or can you just upload the swf and customize it through the flashvars?

just upload the swf and reuse as many times. No reason to open the fla.

So does this mean you can just “link” to the video from where it resides, say on youTube? And then it streams to the player on your site? Or do you have to have that video loaded on your own server?

Link it. The file can be any where on the web. Youtube should work as long as Youtube allows it.

What’s the best way to use this video player in an already existing Flash ActionScript 2 project?

I am trying to externally load the .swf into a larger flash project. I created a button and gave it the behavior of loading the .swf video player file into a target area. I’ve done this with other .swf files without a problem.

The .swf file i’m loading does work when tested from it’s own Flash project. The video loads in the video player and it plays perfectly.

When the .swf is loaded externally into the larger flash project, it does not play. I cannot get the video to play, though i can get the play button and time line of the video player to appear. The background thumb is not showing up either. When I push the play button the video does not play.

please help… thanks for any ideas.

Joey, I’m afraid you’re learning the hard lesson of AS3 . AS3 .swfs can load other AS3 files and lower (AS2 and AS1 ), but unfortunately it doesn’t work the other way around. Meaning AS2 files cannot load AS3 files.

I wish it wasn’t so but blame Adobe for that one. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.

How do you enable autoplay, so the video starts playing immediately?

vasu, the player doesn’t work like that. You first need to click the poster image or play button in order for the video to start streaming.

spacemanrecords, I have no idea what you’re talking about. can you take a screen capture and send it to me?

I’ve never seen any boarder or parts to the controls remain after they hide.

This works great, however the “everything_mc” leaves a small line on the top and bottom after it hides. How can I fix this?

Also, I can I change the position of the “everything_mc”? I’d like it flush at the bottom…

To change the placement of the players controls you do it through the flashvar “control_placement=”. You might need to do a little trial, but 0 is the top and 1 is the bottom of the video.

Great player, but I’m getting the same problem as spacemanrecords and Psychobilly—borders around the control menu. It’s strange, because now I also see the borders on the FlashDen demo, whereas I didn’t see them before.

Not quite sure how to post URL ’s, but I uploaded a screencap: http://i41.tinypic.com/2rrs6dy.jpg

tehlupin, thank you for the screen shot. that’s really wierd. I’ll do some digging. Right of the top of my head is make sure you have the latest flash player and see if that fixes the problem. I still don’t see it and I’ve got flash player 10.

marcfolio, you’re right, it has to do with the flash player version. I just updated to flash player 10 and the problem’s gone. But is there any way to force viewers to upgrade to the latest version so they don’t encounter the same problem?

Thanks for all your help.

The code that you use to embed the player (if it’s the javascript version “AC_….”;) should have an area that you can specify what flash player version is required. I’ll see if I can’t find a better way and post it.
