Embedded Flash Video Only To Play When In Focus?
Aug 19, 2009
was wondering if I could get some direction on something that I have been wondering about for a while. There have several flash video players that I have seen that only start to load/play the video when the object is visible on the screen.
For instance, if I click a link to an html page with an auto playing flv on it, and then minimize the window. The video will only start to play/load once I maximize the window again. The other instance I have seen it is with the position of the page. So if an flv is placed onto a long html page, all the way at the bottom, it will only begin to load/play once I have scrolled to make it visible.
I have done some searching but have not been able to determine what this would even be refered to as. Is it controlled by Javascript or Actionscript, or is this just a the way flash player functions?

I'm faced with a problem from my employer on making a flash video play when an image is rolled over. In a sense, with many images on the page (which represent a video), the user can preview a small sample of that clip when rolled over by the mouse. I know that when the image is rolled over I must somehow bring the player infront of the image using z-index, but can't seem to work out the details oh how to get it to play.
Does anyone have any examples I can draw from in order to help me complete this task?

I have created a transparent flash video (virtual spokesperson) for my website. For demoing purposes, I would like to have this appear on any desired website.
This is what I am trying to produce - here a virtual spokesperson appears on the [url]website: [url]
Have a look at other sites which enable one to type in a URL and their demo virtual spokesperson appears on the given site: [url] [url]
I believe they do this within an iframe to display the underlying website.

I'm looking to duplicate the video-embedding technique shown on revision5.com, whereby they show the flash video to all platforms where flash is available, and only show the HTML5 player on mobile devices. Is there a browser-sniffing framework, or some other method available to accomplish this?

With the dreaded embedded video issue? I have code to embed video into my site using object for IE and embed for firefox. This works fine but now I also wish to dynamically change the source of the video depending on which link is clicked. I know how to acheive this but I believe that my source changing code for firefox is flawed
My code for IE which works great is :
But for firefox and opera (which also seems to like <embed> rather than <object>)
I have the code below:

Example:[url]
When you visit that page, all that is loaded is and image with a "Click to play" button. Then when you click on the image, all the flash elements are loaded in place of the image. How did they do this?
I know you can do this with an external html file but I want to do it without an external html page so I can integrate it into wordpress.

I have a video (.wmv) that has markers in it one can access these markers in video players like "Windows Media Player" at "view" -> "file markers"
I want to embed the video object in an HTML page and be able to let the user jump to these markers via JavaScript or such. I managed to do this with Internet Explorer ודןמע JavaScript but I can't get any other browser to access these markers or any timeline. function for that matter. I need to be able to do so cross browser.

I have an <img> Tab to play a video(of type .wmv). The image tag is as follows: <img border="0" dynsrc="Test1.wmv" start="fileopen" loop="1" width=1081 height=838>
Everything works fine, but now I need to play a video list (up to 5 videos). As soon as one video stops another video should start playing (at the same position automatically, without any user input) and as soon as the last video is stopped, it should start the first video again. So it will be like a loop.

I'm trying to find out the height of an embedded youtube-video (what I wan't to do is hide all embeds when I open a facebox and replace them with a placeholder of equal size). I (basically) tried this:
It always alerts 18, at least for the yourubevideos I embedded.

I'm a relative newcomer to jQuery (and for that matter an inexperienced web builder) but I've really enjoyed using the jQuery UI and plugins as I work to redo my site. My problem is this. My site includes many video progressive download files. I have tried to combine either jQuery UI (Accordian) or a plugin (nivoSlider) (not both at the same time) with a video embed using SWFObject. For some reason the combination cause my video playback to stutter.
Here are two test pages. They access they same mp4 files but in Test_1 I have disabled the nivoSlider js. The videos playback smoothly in Test_1 but in Test_2 the playback stutters. [URL]

01) I would like to rollover (onmouseover?) a button that is a video and have the video (button) play. (A 5 sec video that stops at end)
02) On rolloff (onmouseoff?) the same button I would like it to rewind to the beginning for next rollover.
03) I would like to add more of these "Video Button Rollovers" to the same website page in the future. I would like to use DreamWeaver CS4, and stay away from flash for more accessibility and less memory intensive overhead. (obviously no control-bar for video)
I have all the parts to this to try a variety of solutions. The video is a box with untied string on a white background. When played a person fades-on and ties the string into a bow. (white background matches website background)
Parts:
01) video from untied box to tied box with person .mov
02) image of first frame of video .jpg
03) video from untied box to tied box with person to person fade-off and untied box .mov
04) video of tied box with person to person fade-off and untied box.mov

Industry feedback in 'advertising world' is that I really could do with moving mini flash vids as thumbnail links, not static thumbnails if possible. This is where I am up to for you kind folk to see - [URL] The playback of the flash vids (in the big playback area right/mid of screen) from the JPG thumbnail links on the TOP ROW works FINE, but how do I similarly call that 'BIGFLASH' function to display the video right-centre linking from the JW Flash Player vid thumbnail equivalents on rows TWO and THREE?
Do Flash vids defo overide all other functionality (and thus the 'linking hand' hovering icon) we could otherwise use to "couch" the object (ie, in this case, the calling of the flash routine) like using javascript OnClick, etc or do we need to try and "con" the FLASHVARS within the flash player using the flashvar "DISPLAYCLICK:" ( http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/wiki/FlashVars ) to do something javascripty and invoke the 'BIGFLASH' function? The parameter options seem limited though don't they... as far as I can tell you can't use the DISPLAYCLICK flashvar to call a bespoke JS routine. I wonder if it is possible to put a transparent layer OVER the flash vid in JW Player and use that as the link, or does flash not allow other layers superimposed over it?
My hands seem to be bound unless I am not seeing the wood for the trees! I really like the layout as it is and the coding and the fact I'm nearly there so I would hate to have to do something radically different at this stage. Why is such an obvious function so difficult to achieve?!

I've got this code that needs to load a .wmv file - the client is adamant about using .wmv files and not Flash files - and the client insists that it use variables for the width and height parameters.I've now got the code working correctly in IE (it's always worked in Firefox) but I've just noticed that it's not working in Safari. I'm sure it's got something to do with the <object> but am not sure how to fix it.I've tried including the safari object code for wmv files and then using an if/else statement to only load the object code for safari but my javascript skills aren't that great.As it stands right now, both Firefox and IE try to load the quicktime object after they load the wmv movie object.

Here is what I am trying to do with no luck: I am sending an HTML marketing e-mail with a call to action to watch a video on my website. Since html e-mail code has to be pretty generic and simple I want to have the link inside the email be something like [URL].. Once the anchor is received on the web page the video automatically pops up and plays.

I see when I post a link to Facebook for a youtube video that it shows a thumbnail. When i click the thumbnail it plays the video right there on my facebook page.
I am wondering how do they do that trick?
So, let me take a guess.
Facebook is probably using some RSS feed aggregator to pull the info from YouTube.
They probably are also using maybe jQuery + CSS to hide the video at first. When you click the thumbnail it shows the video and then the video begins playing.
So, two questions: if that is how they do it then How do they make the hidden video not play when the page loads? how do they get it to start playing automatically once the video is revealed?

I have a basic flash gallery that I embedded into my site (HTML & CSS). When viewed in Firefox everything is fine (840px by 427px), but when viewed in IE the gallery changes size & needs to be (887px by 440px) to be viewed correctly.
So, I put an Javascript If Then Else statement. Now it targets and changes in the IE browser (width='887' height='440') , but it also changes the Firefox one to 887x440 when it should stay the original 840x427.

is it possibile to detect and prevent through javascript the opening of a new window caused by a embedded flash object? In the html code this embedded object resides within a given div with id.
I would want to know about it because every time I open the page, the flash embedded object opens another window, and it is a little bit noisy.
Does exists a solution for that?

Take a look at this: [url] As you can see each img thumbnail has a title underneath. But I want the title to attach on the big player. It doesn't matter where exactly as long as I can access it with css.
(I have an additional question...When I put this code online the justin bieber video doesn't play. A message from Youtube is presented telling me that this is Vevo material and it can only be viewed on youtube. But as you can see it plays on jsfiddle.net.

I have a set of flash files called inside iframe. I need to put a play/ stop button into the parent html to control the flash. I tried using document.getElementById[iframename](playerId) but the JavaScript is not recognizing the flash object.
I am using strobe media playback. Is there any way I can communicate to flash object using javascript?
