Okay, it's time for some stupid questions!
Quote:
| In the parameters for this component delete the entry 'video' from the Default Stream Name. Even though when we set the video later in Actionscript deleting this isn't important yet just good practice. |
|
|
When does the tutorial do this? In the "myConn.connect" line?
Quote:
| NOTE: because we are using a component we will need to include the main.asc file that has "load ("components.asc"); |
|
|
I don't have a "main.asc" file anywhere on my machine, but I do have a "components.asc" - is the above bold text missing a quotation mark at the end, or...?!
"Include" - what does this mean: copy the file to a certain folder or use #include?

I need a little help. I followed the tutorial and my swf seems to be
connecting to the server. It will load the first frame of my flv video into
the VideoPlayback but that is it. It won't play the video. Any ideas about
what I might be doing wrong?

Nope! Asked my questions, got no replies... Made my own. :)
(And if you want the source code - I'm sorry, but I don't think my company would like that.)

If you can't let me see your source code, do you know of any good
tutorials for how to get my first streaming video working?
Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Aww poop. During my search, I only bookmarked 2 pages... :(
BUT!
Here's the code from an earlier-version test of mine. Put the following on frame 1 of your main timeline:
Code:
// Create a NetConnection instance:
var conn_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// Create a local streaming connection:
conn_nc.connect(null);
// Create a NetStream instance
var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(conn_nc);
// Retrieve meta data
stream_ns.onMetaData = function(obj) {
output = "stream_ns ::: onMetaData"+newline;
output = output+"duration: "+obj.duration+newline;
output = output+"videodatarate: "+obj.videodatarate+newline;
output = output+"audiodatarate: "+obj.audiodatarate+newline;
output = output+"----------------------------------------------";
};
// Attach the NetStream video feed to the Video object:
my_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
// Begin playing
stream_ns.play("test.flv");
stop(); |
|
|
Create a dynamic text field (multiline) on the stage, with the variable name output.
Create a new Video (in the Library) and drag it on the stage, giving it the instance name my_video.
Make sure you have a test.flv in the appropriate folder.
Voila!
