GetPlugin Captions bring me nothing Created Sep 1, 2010

Hi,

It was not working using flowplayer.captions-3.2.2.swf and it works ok using flowplayer.captions-3.2.1.swf so there seem to be a little problem with this version.

Best.

I can confirm that I see a regression bug with flowplayer.captions-3.2.2 in the loadCaptions method, with an srt file passed in. It works fine in 3.2.1.

Hi there,

I am not completely sure it works fine in 3.2.1. I used this version for a little time until I realized that the captions don´t appear correctly. There are intervals of time where they don´t appear where it is supposed the should do it so I decided not to use it until it is fixed. Do you know if there has been any advance?

For some insane reason in the latest version of the captions plugin the method is named loadCaptionsFromFile. So with the latest 3.2.2 version it will work if you do:

$f().getPlugin("captions").loadCaptionsFromFile(0, '/player/captions/file.srt');

I've now renamed the file back to loadCaptions() and that is what it will be called in the next version. The development version already has the method renamed back to it's original name:http://flowplayer-releases.s3.amazonaws.com/info/dist.html

Thank you for your response.

No wonder it goes better but it still fails. The captions don´t appear perfectly. Using the lastest version (3.2.6) there are several captions lose:

lastest version (3.2.6)

01:19 -- when there is complete freedom from fear, (missing)

1:22 -- and when there is the sense of love (missing)..

and lot of them are missing.

previous version (3.1.x)

http://www.jkrishnamurti.org/krishnamurti-teachings/view-video/the-challenge-of-change-full-version.php

It goes perfectly.

I have included the lastest SWF you sent us.

I hope you can fix it to implement the new functionalities as soon as posible.

All the best.
Miguel.

Hello Anssi,

do you know if flowplayer team are working in caption´s bug posted above? do you know if I will be able to use the latest version in my site?

The caption plugin is quite important in all of my projects!!

Thank you for any response.
Miguel.

Hey mdavila.
I badly need the flowplayer to work with multi-lingual captions being selected from a select control, just like your site does. But I don't even get the switch.
When I try to change the language, I look in Firebug and it gives an error: Error calling method on NPObject!

I am considering buying Flowplayer for my projects, but I still can't make it work to match my needs...

And it looks they aren't supporting you much...

There is a problem with the latest version of the pseudostreaming plugin that causes the captions to be skipped. This has been fixed in our version control now.

You can test with the current development version. Please take the player and the pseudostreaming plugin from here:http://flowplayer-releases.s3.amazonaws.com/info/dist.html

Hello Anssi,

it seems it is working perfectly now!!

Thank you very much for this job you are doing constantly.

Best.
