Is Flash Right For My Video And Music Player?
Hi!I want to develop an application (a media player) where you could choose and play video and music files (stored at the computer). I want the user to be able to fast forward and rewind these video or music files as she like. It is really important that you could hear the actual sound go fast when a music file is going fast forward or rewind.Do you think that I could use Flash to develop this media player? Or do you know an other program I could use instead?I'm very grateful if someone could help me.Best regards from Beeeaaa

[F8] 2 Flash Objects - Audio Player Passes Pause To Video Player
I have 2 flash objects on my html page.
One is a video player and the other is an audio player.
The video player starts playing by default.
I'd like to somehow set this up so that if someone clicks on the audio player, it automatically pauses the video player.
Please note that these are 2 SEPARATE FLASH OBJECTS on my HTML website. I'm not developing an all Flash driven website.
The audio player was added as an afterthought, originally there was only going to be a video player on the page.
How can I send a pause command from the Audio Player to the Video Player?

How To Change Buttons On Music Player Depending On Whether Music Is Playing Or Stoppe
When my music is playing, I want my play button to be blackened in. When the music is stopped, I want my stop button to be blackened but my play button to go back to it's original state.
Right now, when my cursor is over the button, it will change the rollover state. That's easy to do.
How can this be accomplished...do i need multiple layers?

Hi,
I would like to create a music player in Flash, because I have some of my own made-up songs that I would like to create a menu featuring:
Mute (turn off volume!)
Play
Pause
Stop
Fast-foward (if possible!)
Rewind (if possible!)
Random (if possible!)
Loop certain track (if possible!)
Loop all tracks (if possible!)
I would like all the tracks to be in a list and for the default (normal) setting to be OFF -- I don't want to bug my visitors!

I have a music player that uses an XML.php file to list each song in a folder on the server in a listbox on flash. I was just wondering how to submit, to a php file, a variable telling which song is currently selected and playing with action script.
The reason i want to do this is so once the song file name is sent to php, i can update mysql with how many plays a song currently has.

I'm tryin to set up a simple site for wieving different information, and it also contains a flash music player.
The site itself is based on php and sql, and it gets the information from a database. My problem is that i want to get different information from the database in the flash music player (url adresses, text......from the database).
The site uses sessions in php, and I wonder if you could access the database from flash where the session have a specific value. How could I do this?

hello there~
I'm really new to flash actionscript. But i know some basics from taking a computer program course on C.
I'm trying to implement this flash music player found here: http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Scrip...8522/index.php
on my site.
Its workings like it should but im trying to code it so that it will start to play while its loading rather than waiting it to load completely before it starts to play. It takes a very long time for the whole mp3 to load before so im trying to figure out how to do it. I found couple examples of flash music players that do start to play during loading, one ive seen is on this site: www.foolishways.net
but i noticed that the one on that site starts to load the song, but not enough of the song is loaded before it starts to play. It starts to play and then it goes to the next track before the song has ended. Also the seekbar moves all over the place. I think its becuase the percent loaded is calculated by getbytesLoaded and not getbytesTotal. I've gotten an swf decompiler to take a look at the actionscript for it but its too hard for me to understand.
I've taken a look at the one provided at flashkit by Chris Jones and its a much simpler actionscript.
So i come to you professional scripters =) for some help.
my email is the6thmonth@hotmail.com and i would aprecciate if anyone could take a look at the fla and edit it so that it will be able to play before its fully loaded.
thank you in advanced.

$s_song = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM music WHERE id = '$id'") or die(mysql_error());
$song = mysql_fetch_assoc($s_song);
?>
<songs>
<song title="<? echo $song['songtitle']; ?>" artist="<? echo $song['artist']; ?>" path="upload/<? echo $song['filename']; ?>">

If i set the id to lets say '1' it works. Any suggestions or assistance would greatly be appreciated

Hi guys, this might be my first post ever in this forum
I have to incorporate music into the webpage I am working on (yea), so I figure a flash player would be best. It would be very simple with just a PLAY and STOP button and maybe even a NEXT or PREVIOUS since there will be only 2 songs, and they are like 35 seconds each if anything.
In the top right of this page is where the flash player would be incorporated. Its just an image right now. http://dev2.bitwisesolutions.com/ind...s/template.asp
Anyone know of some good tutorials or something that could help me do this.
Also, I am sure loading 2 full songs into the flash player before the page loads isn't very efficient, so what is my best course of action here?
Thanks
Need A Flash Music Player
It's probably been asked before but I wouldn't know for nothing cas' I've never programming a sinle Flash application. All I know is that you need to compile your code to get SWF files that are inserted into your HTML sorta like a java applet.
Can I get an already compiled SWF file for a music player that would accept WAVs, MP3s, and MIDs and be able to play 'em and:
1. have a pause button
2. have a stop button
3. have a fastforward button
4. have a rewind button
5. have a volume adjuster
6. have a restart button
Basically I will need the whole works to play a music file in Flash.
(Assuming I got the URL of a music file on my server)
I know there are another handful of ways to do this using all kinds of HTML tags like the EMBED tag, but I want to be able to serve my users in every possible case. If they support Flash, great! If they don't support Flash but support Java, great! As a last resort, If they got some software on their computer, use the EMBED tag. For the main player, though, I would like it in flash.
To sum it all up, I need a flash program that can play music in a Professional-looking player.
Please don't yell at me if It's been asked a million times before.

Video Player Component Using Flash Player 6
I'm streaming video using Flash Player 6. The problem I am having is that the video will only play at a super small size, something like 180 x 60 (that's a guess). Is there a way to play the video at the 320 width that I redered it as?

Flash Player 10 Killed My Video Player
Hi Everyone,
I am new to this forum, but love all of the very valuable information that is available here on gotoAndLearn. I am hoping to get a solution for a couple of problems that have arisen in an application that I'm developing.
I am the developer for the web site at http://www.quired.com. I have a few different issues going on with my content. I just updated my flash player to version 10.0.12.36 yesterday. The update completely screwed up my application. The site runs off of a CMS that is built with PHP/MySQL. There are 3 Flash components: the Menu, the MediaSelector, and the MediaPlayer.
I will preface this by saying that in the past I had experienced problems with embedding multiple swfs in the same page with swfObject and AC_RunActiveContent. My solution to this was to embed the MediaSelector and MediaPlayer into individual .html or dynamic PHP pages and then use an iFrame and Javascript to load these into the main page as necessary. The idea is that the when the user clicks the menu, a Javascript is called that reloads the MediaSelector with thumbnails for videos, images, and audio clips that are linked to the page. When a user clicks a thumbnail from MediaSelector the MediaPlayer loads in with the clip that was clicked and the group of clips that the item is in. Now the user can continue to browse the site while still viewing or listening to the media in the group.
Before the update, I had experienced issues on a couple of older computers with older browser version and figured that the issue was more with the Javascripts that get called from within the swfs. The problem was basically that when the user clicked a thumb the player didn't update. Originally, we sent the user to a completely different page to view the media. The only changes that I made to the MediaSelector was the URLRequest in a navigateToURL().
My code changed from:
public function loadMedia(Event:MouseEvent):void{
var url:String;
var window:String;
//make sure it is a media item
if(Event.currentTarget.type_id < 4){
//if it isn't an image load the media player otherwise load the image with Javascript
if(Event.currentTarget.type_id != 3){
url = "../../../MediaPlayer/index.php?id="+Event.currentTarget.id+"&pageID="+requestID;
}else{
url = "Javascript: loadImageViewer('"+Event.currentTarget.id+"');";
}
window = "_parent";
}else{
url = "Javascript: loadBookInfo('"+Event.currentTarget.id+"');";
window = "_parent";
}
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url), window);
}
To:
public function loadMedia(Event:MouseEvent):void{
var url:String;
var window:String;
//make sure it is a media item
if(Event.currentTarget.type_id < 4){
//if it isn't an image load the media player otherwise load the image with Javascript
if(Event.currentTarget.type_id != 3){
url = "Javascript: loadMediaPlayer('"+Event.currentTarget.id+"');";
}else{
url = "Javascript: loadImageViewer('"+Event.currentTarget.id+"');";
}
window = "_parent";
}else{
url = "Javascript: loadBookInfo('"+Event.currentTarget.id+"');";
window = "_parent";
}
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url), window);
}
So basically only one line changed to call a Javascript instead of a URL. This worked fine in most updated browsers so I didn't think that there was an issue in the swf, but in the Javascript. I started to test the functionality in Safari and when I clicked the MediaSelector the swf disappeared and nothing happened. Also, my MediaPlayer wouldn't load in via the IFrame. I was thinking that this was an IFrame issue with Safari, but couldn't really find any information on it. I next tried to embed the swfs directly into the page using swfObject 2.1 and couldn't get them to work. I could right click in the area where they should be and it would tell me the Flash Object was loaded, but the swfs didn't show up. So, I then thought that possibly my Flash player wasn't up to date in Safari and downloaded and installed the update for Safari and Firefox. This didn't fix any of the issues that I was having with the swfs, but it did cause some new problems:
1) Videos in the MediaPlayer play, but are not visible. The audio is audible and the progress bar updates, but I don't get any image. I used the Video class to build this player. The progress bar autohides unless you hover over where it nests. In IE, it never comes into the screen when watching a video now. It does for audio though.
2)When playing an audio clip, I used the Bitmap Class to draw a waveform and add some filters, but now that I've updated the Flash Player the wave only shows up when the audio is paused or loading.
These issues are consistent in IE, Firefox, and Safari so it must be an issue with the new Flash Player. Somebody please help me figure out what to do about this. We are going to make a launch on the website next week and I can't have it breaking when people start updating their Flash Players.
Is there any way to force the player to run in a Flash 9 compliant mode? Sorry to write a book here, but I think that an understanding of how the app works will help in finding a solution.

Music Player Does Not (I Need A Flash Guru)
Hello there, I rarely visit this forum (I forgot I was registered here). I need some help with a music player I am building. I have done 16 versions (no I'm not kidding) and not one will work right.
I am using swiftmp3 to create my external swf's. I am using this because I need the spectrum analizer variables. It's a fairly simple idea, but for some reason I cannot make it work. The first problem with the first 5 or 6 versions was that after getting to the 4th or 5th track, there was no sound.
I am using loadMovieNum to load the movies, and I have tried loading them all on 1 level one at a time, and also on different levels. Everything on a single level (I used 1 - 9) gives me the same problems in that it will not always play the sound, but sometimes it will. After much hacking into my own code, I ended up with a very pretty, non-functional player. It would not play any sounds, yet the swf was loaded and kicking out the spectrum variables. At this point if I hit the stop button (_level1.stop();) and hit play (_level1.play();) it would start playing the song again and I'd have sound at that point. I tried all kinds of delays / preloaders / stop() play() actions and no matter what I did, it refused to work right.
When all else fails, start over?
I started over, and had a pretty clean slate to start with. I ended up with a player that was working 100% of the time, until I added the 3rd track. The first 2 tracks still play as normal, but the 3rd will not load. I tried loading in the same level and also in a different level. Thinking it might be a typo I just do not see, I copied / pasted the loadMovieNum line for track 2 and changed the songnumber to 3. Same problem.
I've looked around in here for other problems with loadMovieNum, but I cannot find anything that describes my problem. I can provide an FLA or 2 if needed so someone can see what I'm trying to do, but I am basically just stuck.
You can see what I'm talking about by looking at version 12 on the site I'm working on. http://www.maindrayn.com/player12.html
Sometimes the songs play and sometimes not. If not, you can push the stop button and hit play again, it will start playing.
This particular version is loading the swf's into level1.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
If you made it through all that babble, I owe you a cookie.

Flash Music Player Similar To .....
I'm hoping that some patient soul could help me in locating something very similar, or point me in the right direction to sample code -- or perhaps a "flash-music-player" template type of thing ... ?
Please reference the link below, as I have tried to "hack" this to get ideas and figure out how to do the same on my own.
I would like the player to be in a very similar manner (top right hand corner), where I can scroll through multiple selections ... as well upon page load the default music already kicks in to play.
My skill level in Flash is not the greatest by any means, and your help is greatly appreciated!
