Website Development Portfolio, Website Design, Flash Animation & Programming






The purpose of my project was to program a flash video player that would give me complete/total control over all the graphics & functionality. This allows me to rebrand the player to any design without having to rely on some widget or FLVPlayback skin. Here is another example I salvaged together quickly to show the endless design flexibility.

The entire player is scripted with Video Object, not FLVPlayback. However, I use FLVPlayback to grab some info because MetaData is not entirely reliable if the FLV is missing it. It's an alternative to grab the data & then close the playback. Managing both is double the fun.

Init/Player Flags/Options Dump:
buffer_adjustment = true; flv_playback_enabled = true; use_debug_box = true; framed_video = true; resize_to_debug_box = true; resize_to_stage = false; start_with_xml = false; auto_start_playback = false;

Status:
Potentially buggy. Loop only available for XML feed or if auto_start_playback is enabled. Other toggle options still on to-do.
