Classpublic class VideoPlayer
InheritanceVideoPlayer Inheritance Video Inheritance DisplayObject Inheritance EventDispatcher Inheritance Object

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flash CS3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9.0.28.0, AIR 1.0

The VideoPlayer class lets you create a video player with a slightly smaller SWF file than if you used the FLVPlayback component. Unlike the FLVPlayback component, the VideoPlayer class does not let you include a skin or playback controls, and although you cannot find or seek to cue points, the cuePoint events will occur. The FLVPlayback class wraps the VideoPlayer class.

Use the FLVPlayback class in almost all cases because there is no functionality in the VideoPlayer class that cannot be accessed using the FLVPlayback class.

In addition, the FLVPlayback class automatically interfaces with the NCManager class to access streaming FLV files on a video server, such as Flash Media Server. You interact with the NCManager class when you set the contentPath property and when you pass a URL to the play() and load() methods. If you use the VideoPlayer class by itself, however, you must include the following statement in your ActionScript code to make sure the NCManager class is included:

var _forceNCManager:fl.video.NCManager;

The NCManager class implements an interface, INCManager, and it can be replaced with a custom class for managing network communications that implements this interface. If you do that, you also need to include the following statement, replacing NCManager with the name of the class you have provided:

fl.video.VideoPlayer.iNCManagerClass = fl.video.NCManager;

You do not need to add this statement if you are using the default NCManager class.

Note: You also can set iNCManagerClass to replace the default fl.video.NCManager when using the FLVPlayback component.

To handle multiple streams for multiple bandwidths, NCManager supports a subset of SMIL.

VideoPlayerExample.as

This example dynamically creates two VideoPlayer instances and applies a blur filter to one instance.

To run the example, follow these steps:

  1. Add the FLVPlayback component in the library.
  2. Replace testVideoPath with an absolute or relative path to an FLV file.
  3. Save this code as VideoPlayerExample.as in the same directory as your FLA file.
  4. Set the Document class in the FLA file to VideoPlayerExample.
package

    import fl.video.VideoPlayer;
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
