Re: Getting SWF Playback to work

I had the same issue, as got the same result as above. I was looking for a progressive swf player. There are many free flv/mp4 players out there, but just a few swf players. What about making it free for single swfs ? I just want to play some swf slide show with it.

Stacey,
I took a look at the ebook. I am able to reproduce the behavior you describe. It appears as though the ebook is using a fair bit of actionscript to control playback. Generally, the more actionscript driven an animation is, the less likely it will behave well in our player, which is geared more toward being a movie and animation playback tool than an application sandboxing tool. The player expects an animation to be constructed frame by frame, in a linear fashion.

Unfortunately, it is unlikely that the ebook will be supported without custom development work, either by providing a generic sandboxing module for the player, or by providing a playback module tailored to the particular ebook format.

At this point, we can give you a refund (as Robert mentioned), and/or negotiate a custom development job.

created a demo flex project which shows the player fine, and will run your samples. But when I tried embedding on of the animated storybooks I'm using in my site - Flash 8, AVM1 stuff - they behave strangely. The animation doesn't pause with the pause button, although I can control the volume with the volume control.

The buttons in the SWF for navigation forward/backward (it's an animated ebook) don't work any more - is this player only for animated movies? I'll attach a sample ebook here in case you guys would like to test.

Hello Joseph - great I will try this when I come back this afternoon. When I put the other SWC in libs and tried to compile, I got some errors, seems a couple of classes you have included are conflicting with our own - but I'll try the newer one and post any errors here, so that I can troubleshoot.

thanks again,
Stacey

Hi Stacey,
I'm attaching an updated bundle, which contains a working demo for using the swc. You'll find source comments in the accompanying mxml file (lib_demo.mxml). There is a pre-built version along with an ant build script. This version demonstrates how to construct a timeline using ItemDescription instances. You can also use the flashVars in the same way as the standalone player demos if desired. Note that this version uses a custom preloader. You can substitute your own or use the default flex loader.

Regarding the player footprint: it is true that the swc file is ~ 500K in size, however, once you build an application, only the referenced classes will be included. The new demo, for example, when performing an optimized build linked against the swc, is ~ 190K in size (the build script is currently set to include debugging information and statically link the flex runtime, which ends up ~ 350K).

I hope this will be helpful. Let us know if you run into any issues.

A good start would be what xmlns to assign - I tried:

xmlns:ipov="net.ipov.*"

And this doesn't pull up the CSPlayer class for me - (I tried browsing your SWC to see if I could come up with the code myself

Flex Tutorial?

mspanish — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 12:47:10 -0600

Hello guys - your player will hopefully solve a problem that many Flex developers have, principally the AVM1 to AVM2 communication problem, that leads AS1 and AS2 swfs to behave poorly in Flex and in my case they wreak all kinds of havoc on the SoundMixer as they just won't unload properly.

So this player sounds like the end all be all - and I hope to get it working soon!

Could you provide even a basic tutorial for how to call this in Flex? I added the SWC to libs but I don't see any new custom components to drag to the stage, and I have no idea what this class is even called.

thanks in advance!

Hey great about the SWC but how do I call it up? Can you provide some sample Flex MXML code for this?

Also, it's pretty big - adding 500 kb to my project just to add a player is a lot of space - any chance on seeing a slimmer one in the future?

thanks very much

Re: Getting SWF Playback to work

joseph.gay — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 14:52:37 -0600

Ray,
Thanks for your feedback.

SWF playback is only supported with the Professional license of the player. What you received in the personal edition is FLV playback along with the virtual timeline capabilities. That information is indicated on the front page.

Any configurations you can apply to FLVs will also work for timeline based SWF playback, so you could test out the configuration using some dummy flv video if you'd like.

Also, if you have a particular application in mind, feel free to e-mall us and we can assess how well the player might work for you. We have been using it successfully for our own applications involving SWF playback.

Regards,
Joe

Getting SWF Playback to work

Ray — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 18:31:20 -0600

Hi,

Just registered in the hopes of finding a decent SWF player.

I downloaded the personal edition and tried modifying the HTML to input a link to a SWF file.

I edited the lines to the following:

               jsonConfig.vitems = [ {
                  url: "http://broadcast.ino.com/videos/crb_index/REUTERS%20JEFFERIES%20CRB%20INDEX.swf", id: 1, layer: "video", variant: "swf",
                  width: 480, height: 270
               } ];

When I try this code, all I see is the control bar.

Am I doing something wrong?
Is there any documentation to look at?

Thanks for reading.

The two files that are missing are the framework runtime shared libraries which are now bundled with the release. Please review both the blog entry and the readme file for the new release and let us know if you have any further questions.

I have created a virtual timeline. It seems to play just fine on my PC (I am running Flash player 10).

On my colleagues PC (who is running Flash player 9), it does not seem to be running. If I look at FireBug console, the browser seems be look for following 2 files, and is unable to find those:

1) framework_3.1.0.2710.swz
2) framewrok_3.1.0.2710.swf

- - - - - - -

I have uploaded the files to an external server. The URL is:

http://applect.com/flv/cosolvent.html (debug enabled)
http://applect.com/flv/cosolvent2.html (debug disabled)

Any help would be appreciated,

Adding a Play button in the middle.

hkundra — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 00:21:13 -0600

If I keep the player's autoplay property to "false", then there is a very small target = the "play" button available for the user to click on to start the playback.

I would like display a big Play button in the center of the player, so that the user can alternatively click on that as well to start the playback. Many sites (like YouTube) do this when you embed videos from them.

For example, if you go to this link: http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/11/03/barack-obamas-on-tech-policy/ you'll see that there is a big play button in the center.

Is this possible to do with CoSolvent player?

Thanks,
hkundra

Hi,
If you are still having trouble, try our latest release available here in the forums. The personal release package now includes sample code. Also, with previous releases we failed to document the need to deploy the player along with the flex framework runtime shared libraries. We now bundle those libraries along with a statically linked version of the player that can be used standalone.

Hi,
The main issue I see from your code sample is that you need to provide a div for swfobject to replace. That div's id should be the id that you pass to swfobject, so in your case, flashcontent. See the revised code below.
------------
<html>
<head>
<title>Demonstration</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {
JSON: '{"debug":true,' +
~~'"ui":{"style":"light"},' +~~
'"vitems":[' +
'{' +
'"id":"1",' +
'"layer":"video",' +
'"url":"video1.flv",' +
'"variant":"flv",' +
'"width":788, "height":460' +
'},' +
'{' +
'"id":"2",' +
'"layer":"video",' +
'"url":"video2.flv",' +
'"variant":"flv",' +
'"width":788, "height":460' +
'}' +
']}'
};

var params = {
swfliveconnect: "true",
allowScriptAccess: "always",
salign: "lt",
scale: "noscale",
loop: "false"
};

var attributes = {
name: "CosolventPlayer",
id: "CosolventPlayer"
};

swfobject.embedSWF("cosolventplayer.swf", "flashcontent", "788", "484", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>
hello world
</p>

<div id="flashcontent">
</div>

</body>
</html>
------------
Hopefully you can see from that what was changed. Note the size passed to swfobject, 24 pixels should be added to the max video height in order to accommodate the control bar. The ui style setting won't hurt anything, but we only have the one skin for now. We still have modularized skinning on the horizon, but its not yet available. Let me know if that helps.

Joe

Re: Building interactivity

joseph.gay — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 18:18:28 -0500

It sounds like the api will provide the capability you want once we roll it out. We now have definite plans on how it will look, so I will go ahead and outline them here.
------------
First off, we will provide an swc that you can link to from within flash which will expose a CSPlayer class. This class will implement useful functions that will call back into the player. An instance of the class will be attached to each avm2 timeline movie clip, and it will be called csplayer. So from within your swf, on a button let's say, you could call something like parent.csplayer.seekAhead(5000) to move the timeline ahead by 5 seconds. If you have a list of actions, besides those already mentioned, feel free to post them here and we'll see about integrating them.
------------
As for the xml inserts, I see your point about needing an interface for editing. To that end we have also developed an AIR application that allows for previewing the slides in the player prior to deployment. A release date for that is uncertain. It depends on the level of interest for the inserts module.
------------
We expect to have an initial version of the api ready for use on or around Wednesday of next week, and we'd be happy to provide it to you as soon as we feel it is usable. If you can hold tight for that long, it's likely to be your best bet. We do have a legacy api already implemented for avm1 material, and we have used it successfully, but there are some latency issues due to the communication through local connection that you have to watch out for.
------------
Once again, we will keep you posted as we progress.
Joe

Joe:

I am not sure if above would work as is for me. Yes, it would be able to pause the timeline and then continue playing from when the user interacts. This part is quite good and powerful. But could there be more powerful interactions with the timeline?

See, basically we would like to build some interactivity that if the user takes some interaction then we do actionA (say play a sound) and if user does some other interaction (an incorrect one), we do some other action (say B, play a different sound).

For example, if the user clicks on ButtonA on the slide, then the timeline resumes playing (as above). And if the user clicks on ButtonB on the slide, then the timeline jumps 5 seconds (or 5 frames) and then resumes playing. If it can do then that would solve our problem.

One more thing, I think for this XML slide concept to be useful for us, we would need an editor interface as well. I can't expect my content guys to know or write XML markup.

- - - -

Can you give a couple of examples of SWF/FLA files - where in you can demonstrate pausing and resuming the timeline? That would be very helpful. My email id is hkundra _AT_ gmail

For what its worth, we tried to pause the timeline and resume it, but couldn't get it to work seamlessly. In a couple of examples where we gave the command [gotoAndPlay(frameNumber)], it would not resume the timeline, and stay paused.

- - - -

That actionscript API sounds very good. We intend to work extensively with CoSolvent Player for all our video content (more than a 5000 videos over the next 6 months). So would love to hear more about this API. If you need any beta testers, we would be interested.

Thanks,
hkundra _AT_ gmail

Re: Building interactivity

joseph.gay — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:14:19 -0500

We currently have in development a module that I believe is relevant to your task. We have been using it internally for several weeks now, and plan on having a public release available within the next week and a half. It makes use of the xml based scripts to allow for interactive objects with text and/or images to be placed in the timeline. Here is a code snippet:

<Slide time="24000" width="640" height="480">
         <Layer id="background" backgroundColor="#abd3e9">
            <Image source="vc/top_left.gif" left="0" top="0" />
            <Image source="vc/top_right.gif" right="0" top="0" />
            <Image source="vc/bottom_left.gif" left="0" bottom="0" />
            <Image source="vc/bottom_right.gif" right="0" bottom="0" />
            <Image source="vc/middle.gif" left="0" top="250" maintainAspectRatio="false" scaleContent="true" percentWidth="50" />
         </Layer>
         <Layer id="textFg">
            <Text color="#0000ff" backgroundColor="#ffffff" top="50" left="50" right="50">
               <h1> Did you know: </h1> "Something" is a single released by The Beatles in 1969, and featured on the album Abbey Road. "Something" was the first song written by George Harrison to appear on the A - side of a Beatles single, sharing top billing on the double A - side single with "Come Together" in the United States.
            </Text>
            <FinishButton bottom="20" right="20" width="100" height="32" text="Continue" />
         </Layer>
</Slide>

The slide would appear at the specified time relative to the particular script. It would then pause, as you suggest, and wait for the user to press the button before continuing playback.

First of all, do you think that what I have described above would work for you? If not, what do you believe it is lacking?

In the mean time, you should be able to accomplish some of what you want by using actionscript inside the swf to stop its local timeline. This would stop the player from progressing forward although it wouldn't change the button state. You could then have the button resume the swf local timeline to continue. We also plan on making an actionscript api accessible from timeline swf animations, but we haven't fully worked out the details. We'll keep this thread as well as the blog updated as we progress.

Hi,
You need to explicitly enable fullscreen mode in the parameters by adding allowFullscreen: "true" to your parameter object. We plan on providing a way to customize the control bar for scenarios where users want to remove certain buttons, such as the fullscreen button, but for now we have the security warning appear if full screen mode is disabled (which it is by default). I hope that helps.

Building interactivity

hkundra — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 03:02:23 -0500

Hi,

Thanks for the great CoSolvent player! I have a file a.swf, which contains a frame-based animation. I was able to successfully integrate this in a sequence:

a.swf -> b.flv

My question is this: Is it possible to build in interactivity in the timeline? For example, can I insert another actionscript-based SWF file, say c.swf after b.swf which asks user to do something, lets say click a rectangle. And only when the user clicks on the rectangle does the player move onto the next file.

a.swf -> b.flv -> c.swf -> d.flv

So, the player starts c.swf but only when the user clicks on the rectangle (or some other way of interactivity) does the player go onto play the last file d.flv.

Is this possible? If so, how?

Thanks much in advance,
hkundra

Introducing CoSolvent Player

Vic — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 16:03:07 -0500

iPOV has just released the CoSolvent Player (Personal and Professional) for public use and purchase.

As background, we began developing this player for in-house use 2 years ago. It has already gone through several generations of development internally, but this is the first version that we felt we could share with others.

The key feature of the CoSolvent player is its ability to accept a list of diverse Flash video clips (FLV progressive, FLV streaming, SWF, etc.) and assemble them transparently into a single seamless movie. You can even mark in or mark out individual clips and the edits will be applied by the Adobe Flash Player when the various clips are loaded into your web browser.

It will take some Javascript (or possibly server side scripting) to make this happen in your application, but the programming requirements are not very hard - and we think the the results are well worth the effort.

If you have questions about the player, if you have applications you want to share, if you have ideas for our wish list, or if you just want to discuss the pros and cons of getting Flex to play video content, please contribute to this forum.
