how can I get my video to pause on the first frame?

[steveffg]

Hey,
I asked a question earlier on the message board but I have since found most my answers except for one. How can I get a video in a custom player to pause on the first frame? This way the user doesn’t have to watch the video until they are ready BUT the image is there instead of white or black. Thanks in advance for any help. Oh and I’ve pasted my code if it helps.

//---Net Connection Setup---\\

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

//---Net Stream Setup---\\

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);



ns.onMetaData = function(info) {
ns.duration = info.duration;
}



//---Attaching Net Stream---\\

video.attachVideo(ns);

//---Playing External FLV---\\

ns.play("movie.flv");


//---Loop External FLV---\\

ns.onStatus = function(info) {
if (info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
ns.seek(0);
}
};


//---Button Function---\\


playPause_mc.onRollOver = function() {
ns.pause(false);
}

playPause_mc.onRollOut = function() {
ns.pause(true);
}

// on stage -
// nsMov - Video object
// play_btn - Button component

var ns:NetConnection = new NetConnection (); 
ns.connect (null); 
var nsStream:NetStream = new NetStream (ns);
 
nsStream.onStatus = function (infoObject){ 
trace (infoObject.code); 
if (infoObject.code == "NetStream.Play.Start"){
this.seek (1); 
this.pause();
} 
};
 
nsMov.attachVideo (nsStream); 
nsStream.setBufferTime(1); 
nsStream.play("w50s.flv"); 

var Obj:Object = new Object();
Obj.click = function(eventObj:Object){
nsStream.pause();
};
play_btn.addEventListener("click", Obj);

Hey,

Thanks for the help. I've got the movie to load and pause but the roll over functions doesn't work. Was the code

var Obj:Object = new Object();
Obj.click = function(eventObj:Object){
nsStream.pause();
};
play_btn.addEventListener("click", Obj);

supposed to do that? I tried putting a button and an MC on the timeline with the instance name of play_btn but niether cause anything to happen. Any ideas? Thanks for the help

// play_btn - Button component
used to start/pause the movie

for a simple button -

my_button.onRollOver = function(){
nsStream.pause();
};
