About the H.264 support:

This has not been extensively tested, but you should be able to play back properly encoded MP4, M4A, MOV, MP4V, 3GP and 3G2 videos. Please mind:

- Adobe Flash Player 9 Update 3 is required to view the videos in browser
- Adobe Flash Player Update for Flash CS3 Professional (9.0.2) is required to view the videos when testing in the Flash authoring environment.
- if a video does not play until the entire file is downloaded, see: < http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402881 >

How would I load the url paramerter using xml?

AdWilk (12 Jul 2008 17:21)

@Blake

First create your flash file as in the tutorial video, and give the component object an instance name such as "toob". then in the html file where the SWFObject is created add in the line
so.addVariable("toob.url", "yourvideo.flv"); To load the url from an xml, you need to use javascript to fetch it and put the url in a variable. hope that helps

Matt (13 Jul 2008 19:31)

What is the license on the software?

shiva (16 Jul 2008 6:01)

How would I pass the url paramerter from html embed tag?. I tried using so.addVariable("toob.url", "jnlvpgNBttU"), but its not working

Dr. Spock (19 Jul 2008 10:34)

How am i supposed to download this player ??!!!!!!!!!!!!

shiva (20 Jul 2008 16:42)

Thanks i found the soluiton myself. Thanks for this great component :-)

Deepak (21 Jul 2008 9:41)

cool

helge (25 Jul 2008 13:19)

Real cool Player.

Is there any posibility to customize the controller of the player skins over the Component Inspector?
Would be cool if you could easily change the controllers background and icon colors (button labels and preloader bar) in the Component Inspector

KadAfi (26 Jul 2008 11:25)

Thank you very much for this nice Player!

I can put the parameter into the movie clip over an parameter that is very nice, but how can i put it in the HTML Code?
I want to write the URL of Youtube into the HTML Code but i don't know how i can do this! ??

Can you please write me the full code?

I try this:
<param name="movie" value="flvplayer.swf?file=youtubeurl" />

And this:
<param name="url" value="youtubeurl" />

or i try it over a FashVars="ToobPlayer.URL=youtubeurl"

you see i dont know how ^^

Thank you!

KadAfi

Marcus (26 Jul 2008 11:54)

Is that correct?
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
so.addVariable("toob.url", "< http://linkto.flv >");
// ]]>
</script>

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="456" height="369" data="player.swf">
<param name="movie" value="player.swf" /> </object>

ElManuel (15 Aug 2008 3:35)

Angello (17 Sep 2008 0:53)

I have the problem the player load the image but can run the video.

Why happend? maybe this direction is failure
< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/fl_youTubeProxy.php >

this is the youtubeproxy but is wrong or not? or maybe is the youtube site change politics? help!

Elvis Mehmedovic (17 Sep 2008 3:42)

YouTube has changed some stuff, breaking the old proxy script.

If you are using the proxy script on your own server, you need to update it. If you are using the proxy script located on emehmedovic.com, it should work fine now.

paul (17 Sep 2008 23:55)

thanks elvis! you're the man!

Levi Figueira (25 Sep 2008 19:00)

Is it possible to use cuePoints or use Flash's own videoPlayback component with the rest this player??

I'm loving the player but need cuePoints!
Also, how would you recommend doing for offering a low/high bandwidth option? (SD vs HD)

Greatly appreciated! ;)
Kudos man ;)

rodolfo (29 Sep 2008 4:07)

hi, Elvis!
your work is like a state of the art mountain which one must strugle to achieve, once there it's the olimpus, thx man!

question:
i've searched all the Toob code but can't find where the heck is the part that doesn't let my customMenuItems appear...

any hints?¿

matteo sisti sette matteosistisette@gmail.com (29 Sep 2008 11:49)

Hi,

(if anyone replies, would be great if you copy it to my email or send an email to let me know)

It works for me if I use the proxy php hosted at emehmedovic.com but it doesn't work if I put the php on my server.

I DID update the php script (and also had already found out myself how to fix it)

Look at these examples:
- This one has the proxy parameter set to < http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/fl_youTubeProxy.php > and it works:
< http://matteosistisette.com/test_toob/ >

- These ones use < http://www.matteosistisette.com/test_toob/fl_youTubeProxy.php > (which is the updated version) and they don't work:
< http://matteosistisette.com/test_toob/test2.html >
< http://matteosistisette.com/test_toob/test3.html >

(the only difference between test2 and test3 is autoLoadYouTubePreviewImage true or false)

However compare in the browser this
< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/fl_youTubeProxy.php?id=4AqUIjl2coE >
to this:
< http://matteosistisette.com/test_toob/fl_youTubeProxy.php?id=4AqUIjl2coE >

They return identical output.
I'm confused. Any idea?

I have done some experiments playing around with the php code and saving logs and it SEEMS TO ME that the local php is never called with ?id=...; it is only called once with ?image=... as long as the autoLoadYouTubePreview parameter is set to true but then it is not called to retrieve the info xml.
Or at least it seems like the function youTubeProxyXML.onError is called instead of youTubeProxyXML.onXMLLoad (I had a look at the source code)...... any idea? Anyone experimenting same problem?

My hipotheses:
A) error in the component source code
B) some configuration I have to change in my hosting server

I would like to play around with the .as source code and make experiments so I may find the source of the problem but I don't know how to "recompile" the component or whatever is needed to make it work with my modified .as, if it is possible at all. I am quite ActionScript-literate (2.0) but a complete analphabet in creating/manipulating (and almost even using) Flash Components.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

matteo sisti sette matteosistisette@gmail.com (29 Sep 2008 12:42)

!!! SOLVED !!!!

Shit I'm sorry.

I was loading the swf from < http://matteosistisette.com/... > while the proxy script url was < http://www.matteosistisette.com/... > (notice presence/absence of www.) so it was a matter of cross domain flash security policies or whatever it is called.

So just updating the script DID solve the problem.

Sorry again for the annoyance

stephane (29 Sep 2008 21:07)

I try to use the Toobplayer with flash CS3 but the XMCA 0.3 Components is not present in the Components Panel although i installed it through adobe exyension manager.
If i try to compile an exemple in actionscript 2 or 3, it failed ...
Any idea ? in you tutorial video, yo seem to use CS3 ...
I work on mac OS X

exxo7 (30 Sep 2008 8:44)

JAM3SoN (28 Oct 2008 20:33)

Hello, is there any possibility to play sequence of videos with your player? It will be totally awesome. I think about loading video IDs from XML, is it possible? If so, how? Please help :) My mail < kubik@servismetal.sk.. > Many times thanks.

Hi — would you be able to make an example of the youtube player with a html/php example. I don't know where to change the vars to pull the info from my own site instead of yours.

Thanks in advance!

s7v7n (4 Nov 2008 10:14)

Hello,

Thnx for this awesome player.
Everything is working like a charm.
One Question: Is it possible that i can use my
fl_youtubeProxy.php from my server ?

I installed the player to another domain(2). This is a Hosting without curl and tried to get access to the fl_youtube_Proxy.php from domain(1) and got errors (Videos are not playing). But when i change the proxy link to yours emehmedovic.com/....fl_youtube_Proxy.php at domain(2) it is working again.

I want to use the fl_youtube_proxy.php always from my Server (domain1). Please help me to realize this.

Many many thnx

s7v7n (4 Nov 2008 18:47)

Edit to my Post: at Domain1 curl is installed and working. I want to use the fl_proxyYoutube.php file from domain1.

PrinceRC (10 Nov 2008 1:55)

Is it possible to use my own streaming server with Toob Player?

antonio.cordeiro@yahoo.com.br (23 Nov 2008 4:44)

Good morning Elvis,

Very good flash component! The definitive solution for implementing "flv" videos in intranet portal too. However, I didn´t understand how to preload an image before to play video, as your examples in
< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/ >#/simple_skin/.
I intend on working in proprietary web server, right?

Jack (25 Nov 2008 19:49)

Hi Elvis!

First I would like to praise his excellent work. And encourage him to continue. Congratulations!

there is the possibility of opening a playlist of YouTube in the ToobPlayer? Is that possible?

Thank you!

Evgeny Golubov (29 Nov 2008 8:14)

Hi

Same problem here:
I am trying to incorporate this amazing player (BY far one of my favorites) into a fullscreen flash (100% x 100% incorporated into HTML) and notice that the component MOVES all the content to the left top corner. Is there a way to disable that?

Ronnie (22 Dec 2008 1:26)

When I upload to server and try to play a movie, everything is going up to the left corner, can anyone help me with this problem ?

clip4food (29 Dec 2008 7:03)

same problem, it seems toobplayer changes or brokes the part of my code wich strechs 100% the window, some code filters are also been afected by the component, no matter if it is in a parent movie or pulled whit loadMovie... sorry for my bad english, happy new year 4 u all cheers!

clip4food (29 Dec 2008 19:01)

UP LEFT PROBLEM SOLVED

for movies with 100% stretch, check the align param inside the toob player... modify or comment these lines

Aligner.register(display, { hStretch: true, vStretch: true, vSizeMargin: 30 });Aligner.register(image, { hStretch: true, vStretch: true, vSizeMargin: 30 });Aligner.register(bg, { hStretch: true, vStretch: true, vSizeMargin: 30 });

then go inside the ctrl layer (the controls of the player) and edit or coment

Aligner.register(bg, { hStretch: true, hSize: 1 });Aligner.register(r, { hAlign: true, hPosition: 1 });Aligner.register(bar, { hStretch: true, hSize: 1, hSizeMargin: 222 });

you may need tweak some more things, depending in wich kind of script your movie uses.. in mi case im using fitflash, and also need to coment the "fullscreen" params

showOrHideFullScreenButton = function() { if (showFullScreenButton) { fs.gotoAndStop("show"); Aligner.register(ctrl, { hStretch: true, hSizeMargin: 30, vAlign: true, vPosition: 1, vPositionOffset: -30 }); Aligner.register(fs, { hAlign: true, hPosition: 1, hPositionOffset: -30, vAlign: true, vPosition: 1, vPositionOffset: -30 }); } else { fs.gotoAndStop("hide"); Aligner.register(ctrl, { hStretch: true, vAlign: true, vPosition: 0, vPositionOffset: -30 }); Aligner.register(fs, { hAlign: true, hPosition: 0, hPositionOffset: 0, vAlign: true, vPosition: 1, vPositionOffset: -30 }); }}
you can set those to the correct values you need, or just del..

sorry for my bad english, i hope this lines will help some of you.. cheers!

Hugo (16 Jan 2009 18:45)

This component seems is very good but needs to have a page with examples. How can an image be loaded before the movie?

Does the flvDisplay component support full screen mode? can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks,

Daniel (10 Mar 2009 15:18)

Component not showing up in Flash solution:

There is a bug in Adobe's handling of different language versions for apps and os. A simple operation of moving the compenent files will fix it: < http://www.flasheff.com/forum/read.php?23 >,1313

Made it work for me, swedish osx, english cs4.

Daniel (11 Mar 2009 13:59)

Thanks for the component!

I have one major struggle though, similar to other posters:

How do I get the movie to scale together with its html container when zooming in Firefox or when using percentage-based layouts?

When I get that to work I will never look at another player again.
Great work!

Extruendo (11 Mar 2009 16:03)

I install the component and have long worked well, but today did not want to read the videos from youtube, it is strange that not only me but to my place where the example of the player, what happened?

my website: < http://www.turistika.com.mx >

Elvis Mehmedovic (27 Mar 2009 8:07)

It seems that YouTube videos are now being played from Google Video servers. There is going to be a new version of player coming out within a day to mirror this change and make YouTube videos work again.

jgeorg@ath.forthnet.gr (27 Mar 2009 8:47)

Dear Elvis, thank you for this excellect components set.
Please try to upload the new version soon because now I'm in a very but situation (my boss is going to shoot me)
Thank you again!!!

Murat (27 Mar 2009 17:07)

Thank you and i hope this can be fixed, because toobplayer is one of the best players i've ever used. Are the changings only in the proxy php file ? Or are there edits in the swf file ?

alex (27 Mar 2009 17:48)

Gracias por tu excelente componente, sin embargo no esta funcionando ultimamente, podrias darnos algunas pistas sobre lo que esta ocurriendo, gracias...

ishwar@c2w.com (28 Mar 2009 11:07)

Hi,
ToobPlayer is simply the best flv players I have ever come across... Lately, all the youtube content has stopped playing... since you already know about the YouTube problem, I hope its getting sorted asap... as I am already using it on my website... and the YouTube player is an integral part of the website...
Thanks so much in advance...
-iShwaR

floyd@antilabs.net (28 Mar 2009 17:16)

this is an awesome piece of work that you've put together here. good luck w/the youtube problem you're having.

i have a question/issue with my attempts at playing content hosted on my own website. i have tested it using .m4v and .mov content, and both will play the audio from the file, but no video appears.

thanks for making this available for us. and thanks in advance for your time and support regarding my issue.

Uriel Albarrán Oropeza (29 Mar 2009 22:06)

the proble is here:
the PHP returns the string:
http%3A//i3.yti.....

and not:

< http://i3.yti...... >

Elvis Mehmedovic (29 Mar 2009 23:28)

I am still working on the YouTube fix, but since couple of days YouTube's get_video_info does not even generate valid tokens to play FLV files, so things are looking glum at the moment. I will keep working, but I cannot promise to resolve this problem.

ishwar@c2w.com (30 Mar 2009 6:52)

Hi Elvis,

I understand that you must be trying you level best to sort out the youtube issue ASAP... but at the same time I would like to know even if theres a temp fix for this thing... u know maybe hardcoding something in the flash/php so that the video starts playing... would be great if you can share something...
Regards, -iShwaR

Paolo (30 Mar 2009 8:42)

Hi Elvis,
I'm from italy and have the same problem with the youtube flash. Do you think the problem is in the PHP or in the flash?
many thanks

Paolo

Mike (30 Mar 2009 9:57)

Hey Elvis,

I've got it working with this quickfix.

< http://nobone.nl/quickfix.txt >

The tokens generated by get_video are screwed but the one generated inside the page is not. Check out the swfArgs in the source.

So far so good.

< mike.zonnevijlle@gmail.com >

Elvis Mehmedovic (30 Mar 2009 11:13)

Hello. I've updated the proxy script on my emehmedovic.com with Mike's patch (thanks a lot!), and now it works.

If you need the updated fl_youTubeProxy.php for your own server, get it here:

< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/fl_youTubeProxy.php.txt >

Btw, I will be updating the component with requests and fixes voiced in this thread.

ishwar@c2w.com (30 Mar 2009 11:30)

Thanks a ton Elvis... and Thanks to you too Mike for the awesome quickfix...

Btw, the link < http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/ >#/gray_skin/
still does not load You-tube videos... Look into it when u get time... Rest all is good... Thankx once again... -iShwaR

Elvis Mehmedovic (30 Mar 2009 11:35)

I guess I broke the demo while testing, will fix it soon. Thanks, I probably wouldn't have noticed for a while.

Youtube videos stopped working again. Please fix it.

Jackson (5 Apr 2009 11:46)

Hello, youtube vids seem not to work. Plz helppp !!

Jackson (5 Apr 2009 12:57)

If i add the videoid and the token hash manually in the php script it is working. There is something wrong with the parsed hash.

Jackson (5 Apr 2009 17:54)

Bump - No one there ?

Elvis Mehmedovic (6 Apr 2009 0:25)

A new patch is available:

< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/ToobPlayerPatch_20090406.zip >

1. Install MXP
2. Recompile your FLAs
3. If you are using you fl_youTubeProxy.php on your own server, update it with the patched version.

ishwar@c2w.com (6 Apr 2009 5:21)

Thanks Elvis... :)

ishwar@c2w.com (6 Apr 2009 5:48)

Hi Elvis,
Had a query... if I download and install the latest version of the ToobPlayer... do I still have to install the patch after that...?
Thanks,
-iShwaR

Elvis Mehmedovic (6 Apr 2009 7:11)

At the moment, you have to install the regular components, and install the patch afterwards. (The patch is not included in the regular download yet.)

ishwar@c2w.com (6 Apr 2009 8:56)

cool... thanks so much.. :)
and you know what... I like this site... cause its active... not like some other component sites where you have to wait for like days to get a reply... another feature I would recommend is RSS Feeds, or atleast a reply back to the poster... I hope u understand...
Thanks,
-iShwaR

David (6 Apr 2009 16:53)

Hello friend, no problem anymore with youtube videos, thanks a lot, from Brazil!

Jackson (6 Apr 2009 19:35)

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH !!!!!!

Jackson (6 Apr 2009 19:55)

Elvis, does this version play hd videos ?

Elvis Mehmedovic (6 Apr 2009 20:10)

Actually, it does play HD. It will pick the best video quality available.

Fine, but i think it would be better if first the normal quality appears because of the long preload time of hd vids. But very nice that it is now possible to play hd vids. I am using the php file on my own server - i commented out the fmt18 and fmt22 lines for now - because the normal quality is ok for me...

Nice work and thank you for all..

Maria Jose (7 Apr 2009 21:36)

Hello, Elvis

I have a problem with the Patch in Mac. I was using the last version without problem until the last week.

Currently I have problems with two web projects, using Toob Player. I must be doing something wrong when installing the patch, because it does not get the videos (first displays "connecting", then "error").
I was install the patch with Extension Manager and the installation ends correct. Then I reset Flash, but the result is the same.
I tried the installation 3 times and even copying the files manually.

I would appreciate your help.

Thank you

Maria Jose (8 Apr 2009 0:40)

My problem is solved!
Thanks and thanks for the patch!

jom (8 Apr 2009 8:40)

Alex: alic_A123@yahoo,com (16 Apr 2009 14:29)

Pf, I still get the error : Error opening URL '< http://youtube.com/get_video.php?video_id=http >://v23.lscache2.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id=a02e0503283ae0e2&itag=18&sparams=id,expire,ip,ipbits,itag&ip=208.113.148.19&signature=6840D1EE357249AF3E936DC1C24BC20EC7854840.6303D444A6B7A05A6073F515F2F76D14835AA594&sver=3&expire=1239913485&key=yt1&ipbits=0

i patched everythong accordingly, read all the posts in here, still couldn't fix the problem. I used the toobplayer when it first came out and worked fine. Stopped working though, I recompiled the files, made other test and still getting this error. A little help would be much appreciated. 10x

Alex: alic_A123@yahoo,com (16 Apr 2009 14:30)

It only gets the preview image ...

Tom (20 Apr 2009 15:17)

The component doesn´t work anymore with youtube videos. The patch doesn´t solve the problem.

Andre (21 Apr 2009 17:05)

but why it still work on his server ??

< http://emehmedovic.com/xmca/toobplayer/ >#/gray_skin/

nate (24 Apr 2009 19:24)

Hi, thanks for your Toobplayer. It worked great for the last 8 or 9 months!But, Youtube has changed something and now YouTube videos no longer play.Do you have any idea what they did or how to fix it?

nate (24 Apr 2009 19:58)

Andre, it doesn't still work on the server; that video is not being loaded from YouTube.

Andre (26 Apr 2009 3:46)

on the page « ...xmca/toobplayer/#/gray_skin »

you can load a youtube ID

Simon (26 Apr 2009 10:46)

The error everyone is talking about seems to happen when the SWF is embedded into another one

I tried running a embedded SWF on its own and it worked fine, soon as i Loaded it into another SWF i got the "ERROR" message when loading up the video (Even thought the preview image showed it up fine)

If anyone could shed some light on this matter i would be heaps greteful

Killer600 (27 Apr 2009 11:08)

Component ImageContainer not load image correctly. ImageContainer - part of ToobPlayer and he not work correctly. Please fix bugs. This examples tested on site - not local!

I tested examples on Flash CS4 / ActionScript 2.0 / FlahPlayer 9 ).

nate (27 Apr 2009 20:21)

i'm using CS3 actionscript 2.0 and it doesn't work with Youtube... it may work with non-Youtube local files, I don't know.

This was an elegant player that worked just fine for the last 8 months... can't you revert back to before it got broken????

Simon (28 Apr 2009 1:59)

Pretty sure it wasnt the compnant that changed, YouTube has changed the way people can get the FLV's, i've seen some other componants update because of it

Just have to sit tightly and hope the Marvelous Elvis updates his componant ;)

nate (28 Apr 2009 14:23)

Simon, can you recommend any other components that did update? I have a client eager to get his videos working again and I really have no idea how to fix this. Obviously, I am not an expert at Flash.

Rulac (30 Apr 2009 12:24)

Hi,

another way to play YouTube videos:
1. Download ToobPlayer.rar from < http://www.fxcomponents.com/toobplayer/ >
2. UnRAR ToobPlayer.rar and get toobplayer_gray.swf from "ToobPlayer for HTML (adapted by FXComponents.com)" folder
3. Download < http://dennisjaamann.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=3 >
4. UnZIP youtubeFLVPlayback.zip and get from php folder file getYoutubeFLV.php
5. Put toobplayer_gray.swf and getYoutubeFLV.php to swf folder on your site (< http://yoursite.com/swf/ >)
6. Use HTML code to show YouTube video:

<object width="700" height="420" data="/swf/toobplayer_gray.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
<param name="movie" value="/swf/toobplayer_gray.swf" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="url=/swf/getYoutubeFLV.php?id=t33ZHkS1NO4&autoPlay=true&volume=70&showFullScreenButton=true" />
</object>

7. Of course you need change t33ZHkS1NO4 :)

Works well!

Josephe (1 May 2009 11:27)

Anyone have any clue how to play multimple videos on this? :D

For example any possibilities to fetch php playlist or similar ?
thx

Spencer (3 May 2009 22:15)

I put the following on the first frame of the .fla and gave the component "myToobPlayer" instance name. The video works but the image won't preload?

Anyone have an idea of how to get a non-YouTube video to pre-load an image?

----------------------------------------------------------------------

import xm.components.ToobPlayerComponent;

myToobPlayer.display.clear();
myToobPlayer.image.clear();

myToobPlayer.autoPlay = false;
myToobPlayer.image.url = "< http://spencerr.com/Lilliput/Portfolio/Boomerangs/Boomerangs.jpg >";
myToobPlayer.url = "< http://spencerr.com/Lilliput/Portfolio/Boomerangs/tune_boomerangs.flv >";
myToobPlayer.loadYouTubePreviewImage();

nate (5 May 2009 21:55)

Thanks, Rulac! I'll give it a shot...

sessna (6 May 2009 4:19)

rulac your code works well, however it doesnt autoplay and the toobplayer swf file doent have a play button icon load onto the window of the player, so unless the user clicks on the small play button in the controls there is nothing to suggest the video is loaded. eg. no preview pic either. i wish they would provide the fla for this!

Rulac (6 May 2009 15:12)

sessna you can use &autoPlay=true (see in my HTML code)
I know that is not perfect, the image is not loaded, but I do not know Flash.
Elvis, please help us :)

Claudia Gonzales (6 May 2009 23:01)

brasofilo (10 May 2009 8:00)

in this thread you'll find a working youtube proxy, posted by Joey at April 11
< http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/forum/General-Chat/16851/Youtube-blocked-http-youtube-com-get-video >

just change the last line, instead of:
echo get_link($vidurl);
use:
header("Location: ".$url);

and the address to pass to Toob must look like this:
player.url = "MY_PROXY.php?id=MY_YOUTUBE_ID";

brasofilo (10 May 2009 8:05)

sorry, it's Joey's April 16 post
and the last line that got to be changed is this one:
echo '<a href="'.$url.'">Download video</a>';

nate (11 May 2009 20:13)

brasofilo,

I'm looking at Joey's post but I can't figure out how to use this information with Toobplayer. In Toobplayer, I just drop the component on the screen, type in the URL in the parameters and away we go. Joey's post is some big long code that apparently I have to modify. Could you post a working modified code that I could copy and experiment with?

Thanks for your help!

Jackson (17 May 2009 18:35)

Some videos of youtube do not work. They are embedable but i get error showing up. If i check the video id at youtube.com the video is existing, but the proxy php script can't get the url of it. Strange, but some videos are working.

Meow (20 May 2009 5:24)

Hey anyone knows how to play several videos one by one and where to enter urls???

First of all, you have a great awesome player, i manage to intergrated to my cms system, but there is one request I hardly to find in ur API, which is AUTOLOAD, i would prefer end user will autoload the FLV but without playing it... is this possible?

lars (16 Jun 2009 9:17)

I would so much like this Toob player to work, but I cannot. I just copied the HTML sample dir to a webserver we use (ASP) and then opening sample.html.
It just says "opening connection" then "Error"
What error? do we need any special components on the webserver?

Cheers,
Lars

Elvis Mehmedovic (23 Jun 2009 7:58)

Hello. The new update is now online. 1.1.0: YouTube videos work again; YouTube videos play in highest quality by default (preferHigherQuality); support for higher quality YouTube preview images (preferHigherQuality); full-screen mode now supports all Stage.align modes; fonts required for some skins now need to be installed manually (due to component installation problems on some systems); added previewImageUrl property; added videoResizeMode and previewImageResizeMode properties; added examples for HTML embedding.

MW (23 Jun 2009 20:15)

Love the autohide, Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am at work and we only have Flash 8. Does the new version only work with Flash 9?

Strangely the slider works fine to forward/reverse the movie and the volume slider works fine but the other buttons do nothing. What did I do wrong? Please help! Thanks.

I drag a new Toobplayer (glossy) component to the stage 3. I fill the url value with i.e. clip.flv 4. I test it and works great 5. I upload the files to a web site and after "buffering" display "error" ????

Thanks for this simple clean flv player, I have noticed you kept uncommented the predefined variables in toob_embedable.swf but once I have those commented out everything works perfectly! I also added a sharedobject to save the state of the volume so this will be my default player for jCore! Thanks again for your great work, in my opinion the best/prettiest :) player ever!
