Swfobject.js And Google Video
Jul 28, 2007
I am trying to get a remote google swf video to appear on my webpage. I already got youtube to work (which is easy since they provide the embed code), but I also need video.google to work.
I crafted a regular expression to extract the width, height, swf source, and the flash vars from the youtube embed code and the apply it to a new swf object.
Google does not provide their embed codes and their file source doesn't look as easy to comprehend than that of the simple V variable in the youtube URL or embed.
I took a look at the source of the google video and I can't seem to find any SWF embed or javascript objects. It might be in another external javascript file, but does anyone know how to get it?

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 basic jquery script is as such.
Snip of html I am trying to access.

I'm using VS2008Pro with Master pages. On a child page, I have a modalPopupExtender that calls a panel with an embedded Google video. Everything works great - the popup appears with the video,background greyed.But, when I close the panel,the audio keeps playing in IE 7 & 8. Netscape is fine.I went and tried what Google recommended, but it still continues.
'//In child page header

I'm having a strange issue with the positioning of a youtube videobar in the the right sidebar, but it only seems to be happening on Chrome and Safari. When one of the video thumbnails in the bar is clicked, it's supposed to open a player video beside it, but in Chrome and Safari the player video opens elsewhere on the page. It appears to work fine in Firefox and IE7 (only other browsers I've been able to test it in so far).
When I take the website's existing HTML and CSS out of the equation and just test the videobar by inserting it in a blank HTML page (an example) the player opens in the correct position, which is a dynamic position calculated within the javascript of Google's Search API. I haven't changed it from the defaults, just copied it locally to the site. The bulk of the changes to Google's defaults that I've made were by placing the #videoBar div that contains the videobar itself within a styled #vidBarholder div with a background image. Both of those divs are then placed within the sidebar left floated containing div.

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 :
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/somevideourlhere" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

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 = {

I'm trying to adapt the following plugin:
youtubeplaylist
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.
[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;'> -->

It's made us easier for validating/cleaning up HTML/XHTML codes and it's OO.
And a sample usage is:
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashcontent">
This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
Or you can write:
"This content require flash version 8 ....and so on"
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7", "#336699");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="ufo.js"></script>
<div id="ufoDemo">
<p>Replacement content</p>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var FO = { movie:"swf/myMovie.swf", width:"300", height:"120",
majorversion:"6", build:"40" };
UFO.create(FO, "ufoDemo");
</script>

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.

So, after doing a whole bunch of z-index troubleshooting, I determined that wmode transparent isn't getting applied to to my flash file on my website. I have a dropdown menu that, in IE, is falling behind the flash. I'm using swfObject 2.2, and I must have an error somewhere because if I use this old method of embedding, everything works fine:

I am working on a project that is using load balanced servers.. all the media that is referenced in the flash is referencing that server. but for some reason on our wireless at work we can't access that server... so I want to check to see if the swf file is existant on the server before writing out what swf to embed.. so if it is there, meaning we're not on wireless.. it will ebmed that one.. otherwise embed a different swf that will use that server's local copy of the site..

I should preface this by saying that this is not for my own site, or my own code; a friend has gone on holiday and needed this project fixing while he was away. Unfortunately my experience with jQuery is almost nil and everything was coded by someone else, so I'm really tearing my hair out. This is a Wordpress installation running Thematic with two child themes, one of which uses Ajax calls to grab page content. The issue is that the Ajaxified calls stop the swfObject content from being loaded. Compare:

The xml has some settings for the images and all my images are in the upload folder in my project. I have reference to the swfobject js in the masterpage (head) and the homepage inherits from it: <script src="javascript/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>.

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'm not sure where I have translated this incorrectly. I have one google map embedded on my page which works fine. But I wanted to add a second one. I thought the easiest way to do this would be to have a second page which is called later on with all the details on it for the second map. However although I think (this I presume is where I went wrong) I have replicated the instructions correctly the place holder for the second map just remains blank.
This is the code for my called page with the instructions for the second map:
And this is the script of the main page, just in case I would be better off keeping them both in one place.
<head>
I've cut out the script that doesn't relate to this so I hope I haven't missed anything important.
