How to load and play .avi or .mpg4 in Flash? Is that possible ?
-> This class can play .flv and also .mp4 .. but for .avi it shows error "Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound"
package src {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.media.Video;
import flash.net.NetConnection;
import flash.net.NetStream;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class vplayer extends Sprite{
public var vid:Video = new Video(1920,1080);
private var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
public var ns:NetStream;
public var listener:Object = new Object();
private var _duration:Number = 0;
public function vplayer():void{
addChild(vid);
nc.connect(null);
ns = new NetStream(nc);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
listener.onMetaData = metaDataHandler;
ns.client = listener;
//customClient.onCuePoint = cuePointHandler;
}
public function playVideo00(vv:String):void{
ns.play(vv);
}
public function stopVideo00():void{
ns.close();
}
/*public function cuePointHandler(infoObject:Object):void {
trace("cuePoint");
}*/
public function metaDataHandler(infoObject:Object):void {
_duration = infoObject["duration"];
trace (" Time: " + infoObject["duration"]);
}
public function get duration00():Number {
return _duration;
}
}
}
.. any help ?
If the file is an MP4 on a streaming server, you simply need to prefix your video file name with "mp4:" when making the RTMP call. You need to be sure to only add it to the actual video file, not the full URL.
Example:
If your full video is at rtmp://domain.com/dir/myVideo.mp4 then you would prefix myVideo.mp4 when you call the play() function.
ns.play("mp4:myVideo");
Depending on your streaming server's settings you may or may not need the file extension.
