Amount Of Video Buffered Already By Client And Whole Duration Of Video
Jun 28, 2011
I am new to javascript (I started learning it today) so please explain it for newbies.I am trying to get the amount of video (in seconds) buffered already by the client and the whole duration of the video.Then, I divide them to get the precentage which was buffered so far.I have no problem storing the durating using:var duration = document.getElementById('vid').duration- returns "12.6" (seconds).I am struggling with getting the buffered time. I tried: var buffered = document.getElementById('vid').buffered.This one returns "[object TimeRanges]".From what I understood this is some kind of an object (Like an array?).I tried returning "buffered.length" and I get "1" back.
I have a video gallery with a bigger div with width 500 pixels where the main video is waiting to be played and below is a smaller div with all the others videos from the gallery having width of 80 pixels.The list of video are managed by a content management system in PHP and are the result of youtube "Share Embed action" where the result is an iframe with the link for the video.How can i clicking on a video from the smaller div see the video being displayed in the bigger div ? already playing? or in a new layer above the website ?For now the video plays in the div it is located at.As an example here is the source video format :
I am currently writing a CMS and I need a few minor variable values from the YouTube Api. I wish to embed a YouTube video into a page and then extract key information about that video such as:
1. The Title 2. The duration 3. The number of hits
I developped a SW for restaurants, pub, ecc... It's developped in php (and html, javascript, mysql) and runs by an Apache webserver (phpdev 4.2.3). The my system is not absolutely connected to the web.
It is a client-server system: in the server is installed Apache, while the clients are PCs where only a web browser (IE) is running, connected to the server via Wi-Fi.
I have the following problem: I want to show in the clients some videos (huge files); therefore I would kike to avoid to download them everytime from the server (in order to not overload the Wi-fi network). The client should call a php page from the server, but the video file should be downloaded from the own (client) HD.
The question is: Is it possible to open a file (in my case a video file) on the Local HD of the client PC by a javascript? Please consider that, if it could be a restriction problem on the client PC, I can change the configuration because it is not an internet application.
I'm trying to create a video box on a website that plays a youtube video and then automatically plays random recommended videos with no break in playback. An endless playlist created by youtube based on the initial video. Youtube uses Javascript API. I have never used Javascript before but i'm just trying to get the video to play as above. There are few tutorials online and I couldn't find anyone trying to do a similar thing.
We are having an issue with the video playing on our client's site. The video plays fully locally but not fully once set live on the any of the browsers, it plays just the first 15secs, then it stops.
Can anyone share some ideas as to how we can resolve this. The player is in Flash, and uses an eternal XML file for the video. We have checked and all connection are correct.
Header Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script> Body Code <script type="text/javascript"> var flashvars = {
so that when you click on the thumbnails it also displays the video description underneath the video, a count, i.e. 1 of 3 etc. and previous and next buttons. Should I be using another plugin or is there a way with this one?
On my website I have a video player at the top and below that a list of videos. Users click on one of the videos and that video begins playing in the player at the top of the page. Is there any way that the link the user clicks to play the video can also jump to the video player at the top of the page? I've tried various hyperlinks but I can't get it to work. The videos play fine, but the users don't realize that they need to scroll back up to the top of the page to see the video.
[URL]
#### below is the video player #### <div id='videoPlayback' style='width: 425px; height:344px;'> <!-- <div style='width: 425px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 10px;'> -->
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?
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.
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
I have a site that I am working on for my company. When the site first opens, a small video with our company mission and views opens and plays. Below that video is a graphic that, once clicked, opens the same video (a higher res file) in a larger window. The problem arrises in that both videos are now playing and so you hear the audio twice. Is there an onclick command I am unaware of that will stop the one video when that link is clicked? Here is the embed object code:
In this viewer, I need to have the focus go back to the main page after a selection is made. Otherwise, the user may scroll his mousewheel and change the selection. I forget just how.
<body> <select id="viewer" onchange="song()" size="1"> <option value="none">::::::::::::: Choose Your Video Here :::::::::::::</option> <option value="x/wmv">Video 1</option> <option value="y.wmv">Video 2</option> <option value="z.wmv">Video 3</option> </select> </body>
I have a webpage in which a media player is embedded.I would like to close the page at the end of the video. Can I detect the end of the file so as to close the page programmatically?
I'm having a hard time with the use of my DHTML menu and video on my site. The video is served using Windows Media Player. Short of hiding it, I can't seem to get my DHTML menu to appear above the video. Unfortunately, I have noticed that hiding the video caused the browser to flash several times. Does anyone know of anything I can implement that would minimize the client side impact and also allow my menu to appear on top of the video?
Can someone tell me if it's possible to use video (flv or something else) in a dialog popup?(maybe point me towards a link with info... I searched it but couldn't find anything)
My client wants to use a video as an intro to his site, but doesn't want to use Flash.
My question is, is it possible to call a JavaScript function from a video file. Or I guess, is there a way to time the page, so that the homepage loads after the video finishes playing?
I am trying to create a pop up window to view a video stream but it's not working. When I click on the image the pop up window doesn't appear. I have an oscMax site (this is oscommerce with more bells and whistles). This is my html code on my index page:
The code below sometimes works the way I want it to...by downloading a video from an external site and displaying a placeholder whenever the page loads. But most of the time, the video won't download and display until a user hovers their mouse over the blank area.
Is it possible to modify the code so that it functions consistently by always downloading and displaying the placeholder when the page loads? I don't want users to think there's a missing/broken video because there's a blank space where the video is supposed to be, and they don't realize they have to mouse over it.

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 write a site a hosts some of my own videos. I want to have a list of videos, each as a link, and when I click on one I want it to load on that same page by graying out everything else but the video. I'm using html 5 and css and I can get the video to come up, but the problem is that when I go to that page, all of the videos load. If I play a video from the pop up window and then close the window, the video will keep playing.
I am attempting to retrieve the selected/clicked thumbnail img src tag from a standard google video bar using javascript/jquery and return it as a variable.
I am able to return an img src variable but it is always the first in the list. I have a feeling that it is a loop or array issue. Javascript/jquery skills are not my strong points at all and could use a hand.
The end goal is track which videos are watched by visitors so more relevent videos can be displayed. I need to return the img src because it contains the video id and is the most efficient means of tracking and determining if the video is indeed a youtube video and not a google video.
I have a working page, demo generated source and a video to better convey my issue. It is located here.
The webpage I have created has embedded video (FLV). It was created in Camtasia from a PowerPoint presentation. Camastia has media controller with a srub line, however the person I designed this for want to be able to advance to the slide in the movie with a forward or back buttom.
I'm trying to put multiple videos on one page. I tried to give each one an individual id but failed miserably. Also how on earth do I assign a image to each player. My example works with one player only and falls back to HTML5 video with no problems . If I decided on five videos per page, how do I apply an id to each one as well as a different image per player. Here is what I have so far code...
