Help! Pause FLV on start? Using Gotoandlearn

[Shmeed4020]

Hello fellow flashers,

i've already wasted hours trying to trouble shoot and I am really in need of your wisdom. I am scratching my head here trying to figure out some basic (i think) FLV functionality. I am using the gotoandlearn tutorials which seems work but I need to add more functionality. First of all, my flash needs to be flash 7 so no FLVplayback component for me. wah.

Here's the additional functionality:

1) Pause FLV at start
2) At the end of the movie have it go back to the beginning and pause. I've tried the "Complete" syntax and the following code but with no luck.

ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) {
if(Info.code == "NetSteam.Play.Stop") {
ns.seek(0);
}

}

3) Have a step forward and step backward button - couldn't find tutorials on this.
4) Volume slider...

Here's the code I am using to play the FLV and do some scrubbing:

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(30);

theVideo.attachVideo(ns);
ns.play("URLtoMOVIE");

rewindButton.onRelease = function() {
ns.seek(0);
};
playBut.onRelease = function() {
ns.pause();
};

var videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus, 100);
var amountLoaded:Number;
var duration:Number;

ns["onMetaData"] = function (obj) {
duration = obj.duration;
};
function videoStatus() {
amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded/ns.bytesTotal;
loader.loadbar._width = amountLoaded*69;
loader.scrub._x = ns.time/duration*68;
}

var scrubInterval;

loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
clearInterval(videoInterval);
scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit,10);
this.startDrag(false,-2,this._y, 68, this._y);
}

loader.scrub.onRelease = loader.scrub.onReleaseOutside = function(){
clearInterval(scrubInterval);
videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus, 100);
this.stopDrag();
}

function scrubit(){
ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/68) *duration));
}

It also seems to be cutting 2 seconds off at the end!!!!

Anyway, I've been searching high and low for tutorials and I am in desperate need of help. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!! Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i havent gone through your whole post because i noticed an error right in the beginning

it should be

ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) {
   if(infoObject.code == "NetSteam.Play.Stop") {
   ns.seek(0);
  }
}

for scrubbing you can check out my flv player in my library as well ..hope it helps..

what do u mean step forward and backward? do u mean a previous and next button?

Hey there,

thanks for getting back to me, yeah i mean like fast forward and rewind (not to the beginning of the movie, but just move the movie backwards). I tried your code and it doesn't seem to work still. I wonder if I am missing something else :/ i will check out your library. I saw your XML video player, looks brilliant - is that the one you're referring too?

Cheers!
