How do i add action script so that when my video 1.FLV comes to and end it then loads up video 2.FLV

Linked Video, Streaming Video In Flash MX
hi!
so, I want to be able to import and publish video in Flash. I know how to work with video when I embed it into the .swf, that's farly easy, but my problems come here:
how to control/make controls for linked video?
why the hell can't I get anything workin when I try to publish a file with linked video (even when I publish it as a .mov)
How to preload large (~10 mb) files when the content is offline, say a cdrom?
so in a nutshell, are there any tricks in flash and video, especially when the content is offline. Communication Server MX is solution for online streaming, but offline?
it's **** hard to make a decent cd-rom, when you want to work with flash and use video. please help!?!?!?!?!?!

Streaming Video, Embbeding Video That Is The Big Q
Streaming video, embbeding video that is the big QHello people!
I have a question for you
I am planning to make a website with a lot, mean LOT of video content.
There is going to be like 12-20 video files inside the site, intergrated as a part of it. My doubt is, if i embbed the files and load external, it will take some time (filesize: 300Kb-2Mb). If i stream using flash media server, will it work correctly? There is not much interaction. You click there, video plays, you come to another scene, video plays.
Can anyone help me and share some thoughts.
Thanks a lot

Streaming Video From Cd
im trying to stream sorenson squeezed .swf files from a CDROM. It works fine although some of the videos are 3-4 min long and it can take up to 45 seconds on older pc's before it starts playing ...
using 6.0.65 (suppoably faster loading from cd) but still slow.
Although its not consistant, some videos start playing within 2-5 seconds.. It doesnt matter if it stich them or not 2mb files or 10mb it all slow..
My question is does someone know how to stream the video fro the cdrom where it doesnt have to load 100% before it plays...
there are no scripting elements in sorenson squeez so a prebuffer script im not sure will work...
anyone?

Streaming Video In MX
Hey.
I am very new to video in Flash MX. So I hope somone can help me understand how this all works.
I want to create a Banner with a streaming video in it.
I have been told that I must have the following specifications:
Loading: 20k initial loading
Flash swf file only ( this must not include mpeg or quicktime movie file).
Total 180k (maximum) shockwave flash files must stream below 30k B/S.
Now, what dose this all mean?
I think I have to embed my mpeg video into the flash file - in order for it to produce a streaming .swf ( am i right ? )
But my question is - how do I get the file to stream below 30k B/S.
And if my maximum .swf file can be 180k - what is the 20k inital loading all about?
Hope anyone can be of help - I am realy confused.
Cheers Werglum

I need to set up a video to be streamed. This video is the only object in my movie (except for the controls stop, play, etc). I allready contacted my server tech and he installed the flash communication server mx on my server. Do I simply upload the movie or do I have to give it some indication for it to be streamed? Any help is welcome. Thank you.

Video - Streaming?
Hello,
I am creating a site to promote my new film. I would like to give the viewers the option of seeing trailers of the film. The file sizes of the trailers vary from 2.3 mg to 12mg. I assumed that streaming is the way to go. I tried using the mediaplayback component but it's display properties can't be changed (color, etc). I was thinking of choosing the method that most other sites use, where they give you the option of choosing the player that you would like (quicktime, windows, realplayer) and then a player opens with the video. If someone can give me a little help on how to accomplish this i would appreciate it.
Regards,
John
P.S. If I'm not approaching this with the proper method please feel free to comment

Streaming FLV Video
Hi, I've been sweating over a problem that doubtless has some simple solution, but that has eluded me.
I am using the MediaDisplay component to stream .flv videos from the hard drive, like a video jukebox, and it works just fine. But what I want to do, having failed so far, is to to distribute a Windows Projector (.exe) file of my project along with the video clips on a CD, and have Flash find the .flv file regardless of the CD drive letter. I have created the autorun file, and everything works just fine, except for the streaming.
What I don't want to do is to embed these sizable files into the Flash document.
So, to pose the question: How can I make Flash find the video files on the CD regardless of the drive letter?
This is driving me nuts. :)
Thanks in advance,
Richard Tyrol

Streaming .flv Video
I'm new to streaming .flv, so please forgive my ignorance. From what I've gathered, I need to subscribe to a host that will allow streaming. Is there anybody out there the does streaming .flv's and could recommend a host? Is there actionscript required to specifically prepare a .flv for streaming (vs progressive download)? Perhaps someone could guide me to a tutorial? I cannot find anything in the "user's manual" for Video Encoder 8.
Thanks in advance -

Streaming Video...
I am creating a website that hosts gaming trailers and clips and was interested in creating a site similar to youtube. I was wondering how to:
1. Create and customize my own flash media player that streamed media
2. Convert .wmv videos into .flv files or streaming media without losing quality.
(Good, free conversion software?)

[F8] Streaming Video Ads
I'm trying to get a streaming video ad developed and I need it to connect to an external FLV file, but I also need it to start immediately and be muted with the option to enable sound.
I've played with video importing and I can't figure out how to get the video player to start muted and then be able to unmute it.
I've been going through Google searches like crazy to figure this out, but I can't find anything specific.
Thanks in advance!

Trying To Get Rid Of My Streaming Video
Hi. I need to get rid of a streaming video when visitors navigate from one section of my main timeline to another. Someone suggested adding newStream.close and videoHolder.clear to my navigation buttons.
This did end the streaming video when a button was clicked, but it also de-activated my buttons which are used throughout the timeline. (Not sure why it inactivated them)
As an alternative to clearing the video and stream inside of my button functions, I tried adding the following to each frame / section of my website that could be navigated to:
stage.addEventListener(event.ENTER_FRAME, clearVideo)
function clearVideo(myEvent:event): void {
newStream.close();
videoHolder.clear();
}
That gave me error message:1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: event.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Also, is there an onExitFrame command in Action Script 3 so I'd only have to use the code once - ending the stream as leave the Video Section of my website?
Thanks,
Mosk

Streaming Video Help
Hi guys, this really is an emergency, i have a piece of work to submit for a job position that is very important and i have spent ages on a design in After Effects and Flash that is fine off line but when i finally uploaded it, the little sh*t won't stream!
I have a file that streams a different flv just fine. I shall attach the two.
"banner02" is broke
"Emedded_Video_better" works
I don't think either have metadata so i've manually put in the duration in seconds.
The clip that works is 36 seconds with a 5 second buffer and weighs around 1MB, the clip that won't stream is 5 seconds, also with 5 second buffer and weighs around 1.9 MB.
Any help would be SOOO appreciated. I need this job and i've worked so hard thus far.
THANKS!!

I am looking to create a website using Dreamweaver 8. I need to know how to stream videos:

4. Are there any resources online for this?
Any constructive help is appreciated.

Video Streaming
I have a question for you guys. I am fairly new to flash, and I am trying to stream a video to my businesses web page.
I have flash cs3, and have encoded my 4 minute video into an .flv. I skinned it, and produced it so I get the .js, .swf and .html files. when I click on the html locally, it works fine from the html file. But, when I upload them to my server, the html does not work.
I tried using the content inspector and changing the content path to be where my flv is, but it still does not work. any help you can offer would be awesome! Thanks,

P2p Video Streaming
hi all;
i just started with flash video stuff.
is there any way to stream video via p2p like msn, skype, etc?, just using fms as a gateway or sth. like it.
i see fms is a client-server model.
it's totally useless for me due to high bandwitdh usage prices.
thanks.

My People, I am in need of some assistance. I am streaming video from a third party server and all is fine and dandy in regards to the streaming file however my video controls "skin" is not appearing on the bottom of the video when it streams so I have no control over the video.
My hypothesis is that the company that is streaming my video for me needs the skin's .swf file on their server. Please let me know if i'm in the right direction.
Help please. THanks.

Streaming Video In IE
Hi,
I'm evaluating the Flash Streaming Server product for an upcoming website I'm working on, and so far it's working! However, I can't seem to explain why streamed videos viewed in Internet Explorer are skippy. The audio stream is fine. If a user plays the same video in Firefox, or Safari, the video is perfect and it doesn't skip.
Is there a known issue with streaming video to IE over other browsers?
Here's a link to one of the videos: http://www.rihanna-online.net/videos/dontstop/DontStop.html
(Note.. to avoid a possible flame post: The site isn't open yet and I have a license to use the music video.)

I am an old web designer, but new to this video streaming stuff. I am not even sure if I am in the correct forum. If not, I am sorry.
However, with me being new to this, I was hoping if someone can point me in the right direction.
1. Do I need this Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server to post streaming videos on my clients website (off my server).
2. What product is best to use?
3. Is there any of those wonderful tutorials out there can help me?

Ok, I posted a few days ago and nothing very helpful. I think that my title or my post said it in a complicated way. Let me try again. And even if you can give me just some recommendations on how I might figure it out or a better way to do this, please post.
So, I am trying to make a flash movie and have it find a external movie to show. I also need to be able to change the location of the video without flash, so I think I have to use a seperate .as file.
Any help, please post!!!!!
Thanks,
Jeff

Are there any good 'how to' tutorials out there
i have a video that i want to stream. i'm trying to use the components already in flash mx 2004 but i can't get it to work. i've gone through the help available in flash and can't seem to get it working right.
i have the video in flash on the stage and i gave it an instance name and then i put the controller on another layer and gave it an instance name and tried to set "associate controller" property to the name of the movie but when i run the movie, it plays but the controller doesn't seem to affect the video so i'm assuming that means it's not going to stream it since it's not attached.
i just want to put a video on the stage. drag the controller on the stage and have it stream. is that possible?
thanks in advance for the help

Anyone know if a streamed .flv can somehow trigger events in the main .fla, client has asked, I know if the .flv was embedded within the .fla I can access the timeline but if it's streamed I think the answer's no.

Streaming Video In MX
Okay so I've seen a few pots on this topic, but none of tem seem to go into enough depth to help me out with what I'm trying to achieve. I have a small short video of a map that i want to have within my site, which is purely flash. However I like the fact that at the moment the site is quite small (<300kb) and with the video embedded it gets pushed up to betweeen 1 and 2 Mb, depending on quality. I did start watching the tutorial on gotoandlearn.com and I thought "yes! That's it!" only to find that i can't seem to create a new embedded video object in MX, from the components...
So is there a decent tutorial on doing this in MX?
