How Do I Unload A YouTube Video?
I used the following code to load a YouTube video onto a flash website:
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("video_mc", 10000);
setProperty(video_mc, _x, 275);
setProperty(video_mc, _y, 150);
this.video_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/wNIlpIwr6yE&hl=en.swf")
Worked great, but there is a big problem. The video WON'T GO AWAY! It shows up on every page there after.
Does anyone know how to remove it from the other pages (Actions keyframes)?
I tried putting -
Code:
this.video_mc.unloadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/wNIlpIwr6yE&hl=en.swf");
on all the other pages, but not surprisingly it caused a scary error.
Thanks in advance!

Can't Unload Remotely Loaded Youtube Video
I am able to load videos and play them in the flash movie, but when I try to unload the movie, the sound continues to play even thought the clip disappears from the stage.'
I have tried creating an empty clip and then creating another empty clip in the first one, but I just cannot seem to delete the youtube movie completely.
frame 1
stop();
stop_mc._visible=false;
if(videoloaded!=true){
videoloaded = true;
this.createClassObject(mx.containers.ScrollPane, "categoryscrollpane", 10);
categoryscrollpane.setSize(550, 500);
categoryscrollpane.border_mc._height=0;
categoryscrollpane._y = 20;
categoryscrollpane._x = 15;
categoryscrollpane.hPageScrollSize = 10;
var spListener:Object = new Object();
spListener.scroll = function(evt_obj:Object) {
}
categoryscrollpane.addEventListener("scroll", spListener);
categoryscrollpane.contentPath = "category_thumb_mc";
}else{
categoryscrollpane._visible = true;
}
frame 2:
stop();
stop_mc.swapDepths(21);
//hide feed thumbs to make room for the video player
categoryscrollpane._visible= false;
//allow access to youtube for flash movie
System.security.allowDomain("http://www.youtube.com");
System.security.loadPolicyFile("http://www.youtube.com/crossdomain.xml");
createEmptyMovieClip("v_mc",20);
v_mc._xscale = v_mc._yscale = 50;
v_mc._x = 180;
v_mc._y = 150;
v_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/"+_root.Vid+"&autoplay=1",20);
//v_mc.loadMovie(_root.Vurl);
stop_mc.stop_btn.onPress = function() {
v_mc.unloadMovie();
}
stop_mc.stop_btn.onRelease = function() {
v_mc.removeMovieClip();
play();
}
anyone have any ideas about how to completely clear out the dynamically loaded clip???
you can see what happens in the live version:

Video Sharing Site (like Youtube) With AS3 Video Player?
I was planning on using YouTube to upload some content then stream the videos (as swf's) back into my project. The problem is that the YouTube player is AS2 so I have to use some workarounds to be able to control the video. I was wondering if there were any other video sharing sites that used an AS3 based player so I could control it from within my own code without the workarounds needed for you tube.

Loading Youtube Video
Hi,
maybe somone can help me:
I tried to load a video located at youtube into my flash website.
myMC.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/FzI5VtUhH7g&autoplay=1");
It works basicly, but it seem that the scaling of the video is done inside the youtube player and the player scales to the size of the _root movie.
I also tried to set the size of "myMC" after the "onLoadInit" and during "onLoadProgress" via a moviecliploaderm - without succes.
Thanks

How To Tell When YouTube Video Is Finsihed
I am able to put a YouTube video into a flash page. My flash movie is only two frames. Frame 1 is a button which will move the movie to frame 2 where the youtube video plays. The following is the code to put the youtube video into the movie.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("video_mc", 10000); this.video_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/6uh4OS1lFUI&hl=en&fs=1&autoplay=1");
What I would like to do is unload the youtube video and move the movie back to frame 1 when the youtube video is finished. But I do not know how to tell when the youtube video is finished. I was thinking that using _currentframe would be a way of telling. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks ... Michael

Embedding A Youtube Video And Getting Info From It...
i haven't posted anything on these forums for years so hopefully they're still as amazing as they used to be... i also haven't used Flash much since then either, so going from Flash5 to CS3 with AS3.0 is a bit of a leap. but i've watched the lynda.com videos and think i can do this. the good thing is that its just a little fun thing im doing for myself my spare time so if i realize the transition is harder than i thought, its not a big deal. in fact if its going to be A LOT harder than i thought, i might have to move this post to the freelance forum
ok, so the first stage of my project (in my mind) flows as follows:
main movie loads, there is an input box, user pastes youtube.com url into it and clicks a submit button.
from that youtube url, main movie determines the embed link provided by youtube (not sure if this requires tying into the youtube API) and displays the youtube movie and its native playback controls on the stage. main movie also determines the length of the youtube movie and stores it for later use.
at that point the user is free to watch/interact with the movie just like any other youtube video they would watch.
so my questions to you...
based on the youtube url, is there a way to capture the swf embed link they provide so i can then load their swf into mine?
from their player, is it possible to determine the length of the .flv it is playing? and possibly 'track' what time the playhead is at? (this is part of the second stage of my project)
based on what ive told you, can you give this a difficulty rating on a 1-10 scale, 1 being easy, 10 being "dont bother, just pay to have someone who knows what they're doing do it"
also, if i do decide to pay for help, what would you consider a fair price for something like this... flat fee, half up front, half on completion, hourly, etc?
thanks everyone!

How Can I Create A Video Player Like Youtube.com
Im seeing them everywhere but i like the one at youtube.com
Its a simple video file but with a cool flash interface. The part im really interested in is the loading bar. The bar loads but the video steams what it can, and you can even click on it to get to that part of the video.
How can I create this? Plus what compression are they using?
Thanks

- What's The Deal With YouTube's Video Resolution?
I am preparing a flash video for a website that will also double-up on
YouTube.
Since the website's format is loose, I decided to look up youtube's specs
and conform to those.
According to...
http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?answer=55745&query=resolution&topic=&type=
...they recommend 320 x 240 resolution (4:3)
However, a screenshot imported in Photoshop reveals the dimensions are
actually 450 x 370 with the controls, 450 x 338 without. Neither of them
respecting 4:3 proportions.
What gives? How do we achieve 1:1 pixel mapping on YouTube? What are we
supposed to upload so it won't stretch?
Thanks.

Click To Play Video - Like Youtube
Sorry for the double post, I put this in the wrong place...
Creating the FLV file and placing a flash video on a webpage with the video controls, is easy enough but I need to have an intro screen.
Something like a 'click to play' frame like Youtube does.
I'm not sure if it is a Jpeg, that you click and it loads the swf or if it is actually in flash.
I assume it would begin buffering before the use actually clicks play.
Any ideas ? A tutorial would be great. I can't find anything on the Adobe.com or Google.

Creating YouTube Like Video Wrapper
here's what I want to do:
Create a video player much like Lee's that has the following characteristics:
- "frontpage" still that when clicked triggers the play event
- link to above still and video in embed code so that the same swf can be used to display numerous different jpg and flv files.
- no xml or other external file control. it has to be in the embed code to work in a blogging context.
The whole idea is to be able to embed a customized player in blogging software without having to use YouTube or similar services.
I think this can be done with flashVars or something like that but I'm sketchy on the details. If anyone has any ideas it would be a great help 'cause YouTube just won't do - I need more control.

I am pretty experienced at using programs like these and I understand them. However, when it comes to....I guess "scripting" I suck. So if any of you kind souls out there has an input, please make it dirt dumb to understand
Thanks for any help anyone has.

Youtube, External Video, Different Widget Sizes
Hi Everyone,
I require guidance on some conceptual questions that I have.
Suppose I am designing a widget that is 400x300 and in that I want to import a youtube video (which is an external swf). Through loadClip I am able to do this, but I face a lot of issues.
Like for eg the space in which (container) I want to load the youtube movie, I am not able to confined it into that space by just giving that container a width/height.
After lot of exploring, if I give it _xscale and _yscale I can somehow get it to those coordinates and dimensions but still dont understand why it just doesnt load into that space like a photo that I would import.
Now, suppose I want to increase the size of this widget to something like 500x500 - whats the best way to do this?
1) Create a new widget with 500x500 dimenions? Too painful.
2) Just while embedding change dimensions of 400x300 widget to 500x500?
This works when I just load photos but not youtube videos. It screws my stage and just keep it like 400x300 and not 500x500.
Can someone please clear these doubts and if possible supplement with example code?
Thank you so much,
Mandy.

Flash Video Play In A Page Like Youtube
Hello,
I post a lot of videos on my blog and always have to have people click on a link that opens a new window to play my flash videos. i do this because if i were to place multiple flash videos onto a page, they would all immediately start downloading. This web site does what I am looking for, (http://blog.elysiumproductions.com/) it has a jpeg as a placeholder on an html page, and then when you click it, the flash video begins downloading. Do you know some workflow to make this, or is there a service. The site i mentioned says it uses click2start.net, but that site doesn't have anything on it. This would be really helpful.
Thanks

Flash To Show Video Á La Googel, Youtube Etc
Hi,
a lot sites use flash to show videos, like youtube.com and video.google.com. I haven't use'd flash in 5 years and I wonder how hard it is to make your own player? Do anyone know if there's a tutorial for it? Did a google search but with no luck.
Do the player use a format of its own or does it stream wmv, avi etc aswell?

[F9] Example On How To Embed A Youtube Video In Your Flash Application (fullscreen)
working example http://jaxxrr.110mb.com/other/fs3.html
the fullscreen part is nothing special really.. one line of script on a button
on (release) {
Stage.displayState = "fullScreen";
}
but you also need to edit the html file and set the allowFullScreen parameter from false to true, it is there just set it to true (don't write it twice like I did )
so either
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
...
<embed src="example.swf" allowFullScreen="true" ... >
or
AC_FL_RunContent( ... "allowFullScreen", "true", ... )
depending on how you launch the flash..
Also make sure your html file does'nt get overwritten when publishing again.. go to publish settings and uncheck html

Loading Youtube Video: Ok, But Show Up HUGE Size
Hi there, i´m making a really simple site to a friend of mine who owns his DVD shop. The simple idea was to make a movie clip that loads you tube video inside it so people can see movie trailer on his site.
I´m using the following code inside of a blank MC:
Code:
System.security.allowDomain("http://www.youtube.com");
System.security.loadPolicyFile("http://www.youtube.com/crossdomain.xml");
this.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/2inVnj-GygE");
The problem is that instead of loading on youtube normal size (425 x 350px) the movie is loading HUGE size, covering otter parts of the site as you can see here (patient is required, site not ready yet):
http://www.xpromocoes.com/testexyz
Some things i´ve been throught...
With this code
Code:
System.security.allowDomain("http://www.youtube.com");
System.security.loadPolicyFile("http://www.youtube.com/crossdomain.xml");
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("v_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.v_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/2inVnj-GygE");
On a blank flash movie with default size (550 x 400px) the youtube video loads fine, with 425 x 350px....
http://www.xpromocoes.com/testexyz/tst.html
but the very same code placed on a blank flash movie with the size i´m using (780 x 550) loads huge again....
http://www.xpromocoes.com/testexyz/2.html
weird and anoying..
Anyone has a clue on what´s going on here?
Best regards.
