Animating Video Game Sprites - Akin To Flash Animations
Jul 24, 2010
I found this article over devness: [URL] It is fantastic, but I'm a complete n00b and I was wondering what the JavaScript would look like if the situation was a little different. Picture this: A Super Mario sprite with him standing normally, but to his right is the word "Home". Upon roll over of either the sprite itself or the text, mario does one of his trademark jumps by the way of a few sprites. I know how to do this in flash, but I would like to eliminate it so I have maximum compatibility and no external plugins required.
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?
My Client wants the Flash walk-out video to only show once per visitor.URl...As it is now if you go to his home page the video shows again.How do I make it only show once per visitor?
I have a YouTube channel with many videos. The links to these Flash videos are talking to a page within my web site. On the web site, the video pops up in a tiny window on entry of the page, and it closes when you click the close button or it will fade away after it has played its way through.
So the scenario is this: The site looks great, but it doesn't on an iPad. Because I am linking to a Flash YouTube URL, it doesn't load on the non-Flash iPad device. I have done a lot of online reading for a week and discussed on many forums. However, everywhere I turn, I read articles about how what I'm trying to do is not possible--that no YouTube URL will ever play on the iPad. Is this true? If so, why can they play on the iPad YouTube app? What is the difference between the app and my web page?
I found many articles and videos referencing this fallback: [URL]
However, my problem with this fallback is that my videos are on YouTube. I am using a URL to talk to it, more specifically an ID. The client has done this purposely to save bandwidth on their server. I have the start of the Javascript looking like this:
function loadPlayer() { var params = { allowScriptAccess: "always" }; var atts = { id: "myytplayer" };
[Code].....
Within the loadPlayer function, can I add fallbacks in here (after line 4)? If so, how do I go about writing one? I suppose I'm just lost on how to get the HTML5 video option to work with my project. I have heard YouTube is using HTML5 video in beta, and it may be running in a few months. Would this auto-correct my problem do you think?
Is there a way to find the native file in the YouTube channel and bypass the .swf reference?
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?
This is what I have so far which works as a cross-browser download however Firefox will play the video locally inside the popup window: is this normal behaviour?This is a very new area for me as you can probably tell and I was wondering if websites require a flash player to view video or do some browsers have a flash player built in as Firefox has led me to believe?
I am extremely new to javascript. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it. I have learned that one must create, read, and delete a cookie. But what is the function for a 2nd time visitor to NOT see the flash video again when revisiting? I want the 2nd time visitor to see the same page, only without the video, the video will be replaced by a contact form.This is what I have so far:
<script type="text/javascript"> function createCookie(myCookie,value,365) { if (days) {
I'm using the simple jQuery below to hide/show either a flash video using our Brightcove account or a slideshow of images. If you click Video, the video displays. If you play the video and then click on Slideshow the video stops playing and you see the image slideshow. This works beautifully in everything but IE. If you play the video and then click on the Slideshow link, the sound of the video bleeds through the slideshow. I've used conditional commenting to remove the object using $("object").remove(); but I'm not sure how to restore the object.
How to prevent Javascript Menu from getting hidden under Flash Video (SWFObject ).
I am using Open Flash Chart and the chart is displaying fine in my php shoppping cart, but my javascript menu is getting hidden behind the Flash Chart.
what I'm trying to do is, when a user hover overs an element, in this case, a li within a div, I want the background color to animate to a different color besides the background color of the body (in this case, black).
It works, but the behavior is erratic. For instance, yes, the color will change when I hover over the element but it when I'm within the div ul li, and hover over for instance the paragraph, the background color of the element will animate 2-3 times.
Actually when I move around any element within that UL the animation will flicker, how would I go about stopping that?
Also sometimes, not all the times, on pageLoad, the animation will fire.
Here's the code.

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'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.

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?
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.
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.

Doing my own fitness bootcamp site and want to fancy up my front page. My front page loads a picture and I want it to load like flash. What could I do? I have all the Adobe Software, just don't know how to use it.
I need a simple javascript that I can use in my HOME page.index.html has a flash animationnoflash.html is a page without flash animationKindle does not support Flash and therefore i want to redirect my index.html to noflash.html page.
I work for a company called Best of the Best (www.botb.com). We use Flash countdown clocks to mark the end of our competitions. The issue we now have is that our clients are using mobile platforms more and more and as bloody Apple wont support flash (not fully anyway) we need the option to detect whether our users have flash and if not then replace the current <OBJECT>Blah Blah Parameters etc</OBJECT> with <DIVCLASS="NON_FLASH_CONTAINER">All other bits in middle</DIV>Is this at all possible?
I'm trying to put some code together to create an image-swapping system, that when you click on the image it'll hide the image and replace it with a given iframe vimeo/youtube code...The swapping part works fine, however when the iframe loads up, it hides all other flash objects in the page, and I can't figure out why.Here's the JS
Code: function swapvideo(w,h,url) { document.getElementById('video_pholder').style.display='none';
I have created an animation using jpeg images, arrays, and timeouts. However, I would like this animations to be an image, not a script. So when people right click on it, they see image5.gif and when they go to that image location, they see the animation.
