Need some help getting video to work in Flash CS4 (Brightcove Player)
OK this is well beyond my flash knowledge and was wondering if there is anyone out there that can help. Simply I need to get this Brightcove player working in a flash file, having never worked with AS3 and Classes before I'm at a total loss as to what to do. If its possible (and i know this rather cheeky to ask) could you upload an example .fla
I'm thinking everything I need to know is in the code below but flash has moved on somewhat since i used it a year ago!!
Code:
// By use of this code snippet, I agree to the Brightcove Publisher T&C
// found at http://corp.brightcove.com/legal/terms_publisher.cfm.
/*
* To use this class to load your Brightcove player instance, save this code into the root directory
* of your project as BrightcovePlayer.as. Then, within your application, you can instantiate this player
* using the following syntax:
*
* var player:BrightcovePlayer = new BrightcovePlayer();
* addChild(player); /// must be added to a display object container, such as a Sprite instance
*
