Controling Windows Media Player With JavaScript
May 22, 2006
I'm working on controlling Windows Media Player with JavaScript. I have all my functions working but a few. I want to sync the movie so that when it finishes the movie it loads the new one.
Now I was thinking of doing something like:
function PlayNext(movie)
{
if( Player.controls.currentPosition == Player.controls.duration )
{
// execute code to load next movie
}
}
I have that function being called every half second and I still can't get it to sync.

I'm trying to use WMP in FireFox and I have the following tag to embed
the player into the html page.
<EMBED TYPE="application/x-mplayer2"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/download/"
ID="wmp"
Name="wmp"
DISPLAYSIZE="4"
AUTOSIZE="-1"
BGCOLOR="darkblue"
SHOWCONTROLS="-1"
SHOWTRACKER="-1"
SHOWDISPLAY="0"
SHOWSTATUSBAR="-1"
VIDEOBORDER3D="-1"
WIDTH=320
HEIGHT=313
SRC=""
AUTOSTART="-1"
DESIGNTIMESP="5311">
</EMBED>
Problem is that I can't access the controls through JavaScript. I have
to change the SRC property and play a new file according to user input.
var w = document.getElementById('wmp');
// This doesn't work... JavaScript error: "Play is not function"
wmp.Play();
// this also doesn't work... "controls is undefined"
wmp.controls.Play();
Anyone knows how to control WMP via JavaScript? I'm googling all over,
but I can't find a piece of code that shows me how to do it...

I have been able to use javascript for my custom controls to keep with my site layout and now i want to show what is playing on the webpage with javascript. I would also like this to recheck every 5 seconds so that it is correct incase the song changes.

Here's one of those things that's probably really simply once you do it once, but, unfortunately I haven't yet. I was wondering if any of you gurus could give me a minute.
I've seen sites where you can only have a certain number of pop up windows open at once.
In other words if you click on one while another is open, it pops in the same window as the first did.

You know how you can embed videos on a webpage?
<embed src="video url here" width="100" height="100">
That's a sample code that you'd use. You know how it has a default, automatic media player that shows up in corresponding to that code? The thing with the play, pause and fast forward buttons? Well...it's a bit plain. The way it looks. I know I've seen them before, but where can I get some media player skins so the media player on my webpage has more style to it?
Whenever I search "media player skins" on google it gives me media players for using off the internet like, for iTunes or something. That's not what I am looking for, but if that's what it gives me when I type in "media player skins" then I don't know where else to go. Help? :o
And how would you make it the skin of the media player? How would you put that into the <embed src="video url here" width="100" height="100"> code to make it the skin of the media player?

I have a javascript with code that looks like this:
var bdiv=document.getElementById('mysong');
bdiv.Play();
where mysong is the id of the embedded media player.
This script works fine in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox.
Error console says bdiv.play is not a function.

I know nothing about js, however, I need it to provide a solution to something at work.
We have a page in our department that launches a movie player once the page has loaded. What I would like is that the player is delayed by a few seconds before it launches.

I am really lost in trying to hook up the controls. I've gone through and gotten all the files together from the demo, and tried using some of the UI helpers on "git" but I need an example to follow that's more for beginners

I have created a very simple flash splash image that I wish to display while a media player loads. I have it set so it will display and run as an "onload" - but for some reason it is not working.
[Code]...
A user will click which audio file they wish to hear. Once the window opens up, I have the onload set to load the flash that I have created, in order to allow the user to be "entertained" while the audio loads. I do not wish to stall or hinder the load time of the audio at the same time.

I'd like to have a drop-down form pass a variable to an embedded flash file. I know the basic idea of how to stop, rewind and play a flash file via JS, and I obviously know how to pass a variable into Flash, but my experience in forms is keeping me from understanding how I would use the form to pass a javascript variable to the flash file.

Certain links (using IE) that are meant to open a javascript window
don't seem to work on my system. That is, the window appears and
disappears in a flash. Of course I have disabled my pop-up stopper.
Any suggestions?

I am using the youtube chromeless player and embeding videos with loadVideoById() method problem is that videos with an id that contains an underscore or dash dont play although they play in the normal player. I also tried replacing with a hex value in querystring i.e (%5f) but that did not work I also tried loadVideoByUrl() method with several urls but still they don't load. here is my code
function switchToPlayer(ytid){
var params = { allowScriptAccess: "always"};
var atts = { id: ytid,onmouseover: "this.playVideo()",onmouseout: "this.pauseVideo()"};
swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer?border=0&enablejsapi=1&playerapiid="+ytid, 'cell'+ytid, "150", "120", "8", "scripts/expressInstall.swf",null,params,atts);
}

As most Javascript coders probably know by now, IE on Windows XP SP2 likes
to prevent our code from running right away (the user is asked to give
permission the first time). Although I can see the danger in allowing all
scripts to run, the fact that IE makes it sound like we are going to install
some huge, horrible application when we are simply adding rollovers or
client-side validation or some other simple little thing really frustrates
me. Specifically what stuff does IE block? Does it check for certain methods
in the script? Does it block everything until you say it's OK? What can
places do to allow their scripts to be run without the need to be validated
by the user? I have heard about "Signed Scripts", but I feel that it would
be hard to modify and develop when a script had to be "Signed" every time.
Any comments?

How do I deactivate a window using Javascript. For example if I have
a window that opens up another window, how do I prevent the user from
clicking (doing anything) in the original window until the new window

In pre-Windows XP Internet Explorer, adding a bookmarklet for a user was
really simple. All I add to do was create a link that executed
addFavorite().
Internet Explorer under Windows XP won't allow that due to its new security
measures.
How can I make adding a bookmarklet convenient for my Windows XP IE users
without having them to do surgery on their security preferences?
Right now I'm having them Ctrl-D to add a new bookmark. Right-click the new
bookmark to get the Properties dialog, and then pasting in the contents of
my bookmarklet. This is quite messy as you can imagine. In addition, when
they save the bookmarklet, they have to hit "Yes" to an error box telling
them that "javascript:" does not have a registered program associated with
it, do they want to save the bookmark anyways?
