Linking Videos To Youtube
Hi,
Today I just uploaded my first web site to the internet. The problem is that none of the links work. There are only 3 so far and hopefully someone can see what I did wrong.

The web site is called www.sambasurf.com

The first link that doesn´t work is the email right under the logo - info@sambasurf.com ... I made a button with the command/action - on (RELEASE), {mailto:info@sambasurf.com}
The next two links, you have to search the beaches for Praia do Macumba. When you click on this, 2 VIDEO Links become visible. They are buttons that I am trying to make link to where I store the videos. I put in the action on (release), {get URL (http://www.youtube.com/sambasurf)}

For all the links, nothing happens. Does anyone know why?
Thanks

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.

Linking To Web Sites
So i have some text converted to a "button" on the site i am constructing. I want to link the button so when they click on it, it opens a new window and brings them to a completely different site, say http://www.flashkit.com.....

but when i try it, it always brings them to:

http://www.mysite.com/www.flashkit.com

and this is obviously incorrect and displays a blank screen. Help please!!!!!!!!

Linking To Other Sites
I have a scene set up that has a list of links the viewer can go to on the net. The thing is I can't get it to go to other sites i get an error saying the site is not in the same folder as my swf. I'm using the geturl script. I set it to _blank to make it open up in a new window but it doesn't work. any help? thanx

WHAT SITES ALLOW OUTSIDE LINKING
?

How Does This Feature Work
i visited the following website www.jubii.dk and noticed they have a feature whereby there is a banner on the righ hand side that shows a sort of light effect that for some moments goes accross part of the page. then it changes back to normal gif banner. it sets a cookie allowing you to only see this once. so if you would like to see it multiple times you have to delete the cookie/files

any idea on how this is done.

thanks

Linking To External Sites
Hi,

I have a body of text. Within this text, I would like to link a certain few words to an external site. I highlight the text, then type in the URL in the properties bar, but when I export, it opens up explorer, but does not link to the site. Can someone give me a hand with this? Is there a way to do this without using getURL?

Thanks in advance.

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 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!

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

HUH? How Does The 'Feature FLA' On Fk Homepage Work?
right,

so how does one personalize the "Feature FLA" of the scrolling navigation system, located on the Flash Kit homepage?

or do a similar effect...

even if the top three buttons were the only controllers for the content to slide i would be a happy flasher...

but i seriously confused myself when attempting to change the actionscripting/apply it to my own site..

whats the secret?

any pointers or redirections will be greatly appreciated!

Linking To Anchors In Separate Sites

Thanks

[F8] Inserting Youtube Video Into Flash
i am making a web page with flash. it uses actionsript2. i was wondering if i can put an utube video into my flash page, with out using frames. can i load a html page via xml or java script. the html page would have the youtube video Embed.
the reason i want do that is to save bandwidth. my swf is for flash player 7

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.

How To Embed YOUtube Video In Flash?
Hello,

I'm new to these boards, my name is vodmare. Nice to meet you all. I have a problem. I have a flash website that I am playing around with, I have the .fla file and that is what I am working with.

I want to use the .html embed code from youtube to embed a youtube video on one of the pages. But I cannot do it! It just displays the .html as text.

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.

Myspace And Some Youtube Videos Don't Work
This problem must've been posted here before. I am using the newest version of flash and have java-scripting turned on but when I try to watch videos on Myspace and a few of the newer ones on Youtube i get this message: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.

If the the video is embedded on another page I can see it fine. I have tried all the full downloads at softwarepatch.com etc. Has anyone figured out why this happens on some PCs?
