Buffer does not fill up when the player is paused

Posted: Jun 9, 2011

http://www.coachyoutosuccess.com/?dropdowntest

As you can see, if you pause the video, the grey buffer does not fill up but then if you resume, it jumps forward to where it has been.

Using the latest version of FP and all plugins etc.

Any advice? It doesn't seem to affect all videos but I can't locate what's missing from some.

Thanks!

Alright, thanks very much for explaining everything. We'll pick one of those approaches once we've purchased.

Thanks again!

I imagine we would keep the license-generating code on our remote server to prevent people just spouting off as many licenses as they wanted.

Please allow me to explain how our software works just to be 100% clear!

It's completely hosted on our clients server - they have their own copy of FlowPlayer and upload it themselves. We have a PHP-based installer which, as I said, will contact our remote server providing their domain name and generate them a license key, and save that into their database.

Then when Flowplayer is called (It's generated with PHP), their license key will be embedded in there.

So I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean by saying the SWF is loaded 'from the domain you specify when you purchase', because as I said, I won't ever be reporting back to you guys what domains are in use and nothing would be loaded from our own domain (Except, of course, our own copy!).

Is that approach workable or do we need to change something in it?

Thanks very much from your time - really appreciate you getting back to us!

Questions re. unlimited license

Posted: Sep 9, 2010

Hi,

I postedhttp://flowplayer.org/forum/7/44333 but no reply since June, so I'm re-posting here looking for help.

As I said there, I'm looking to purchase the Unlimited license but I have some questions before I spend that kind of money.

It will be used to redistribute inside my application - my concern is how the license keys are generated. I'm assuming this is server-side code - what language is it in? Will I receive instructions on what to do after purchasing?

The easiest way for us would be to have the customer enter their domains during install and a script contacts us to generate their license keys, and saves them at their end. Is that something we can achieve?

Please let me know as soon as possible because we are looking to purchase quickly, but obviously we can't until we know how it'll be implemented.

Thanks,

I've got a copy of EVP which uses the latest version from that page. Are you able to test in IE7? I don't have a copy available to me right now.

What is that callout doing there? I haven't added that at all..

IE7 "black screen instead of video" error

Posted: Feb 23, 2010

Please see this website:http://www.cheapeasywebsite.com/dvdbon7.html

In IE7 (7.0.5730.13), it randomly will not load. The EasyVideoPlayer software you might see in the source code does nothing particular with regards to the FlowPlayer code and is *not* causing the problem; all it does is inject a basic FP configuration.

The customer reports the following:

"It would appear that if you only play part of it close it down and
reload the page quickly again the video part does not load on the page."

Is there anything that can be done? There was a bug similar to this in Firefox which was fixed with version 3.1.5.

» Firefox Initialise error when "under the fold"

Posted: Oct 22, 2009

I think it's possible that this bug is related tohttp://flowplayer.org/forum/8/27052

because I am setting the wmode to 'opaque'. Any ideas, guys?

Firefox Initialise error when "under the fold"

Posted: Oct 22, 2009

There appears to be a bug where Firefox will not load the player if the player isn't physically visible to the user.

For example, if you have to scroll down to reach the videos, the player isn't initialised. As far as I can see, this only happens in Firefox.

Any ideas for a solution, other than using splash images? I assume it's to keep the player from starting instantly, to speed up page rendering, but it doesn't work.

Instream Playlist Position -1?

Posted: Jul 16, 2009

Hi guys,

I'm trying to get a pre-roll ad, the main video, and then a post-roll ad on each play. Here's my code:


	$f('pes-tv-player', 'flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.1.swf', {
		 'canvas': {
			 'backgroundColor': '#000000'
		 },
		 'plugins': {
			 'controls': {
					'progressColor': '#000000',
					'sliderGradient': 'none',
					'bufferColor': '#616161',
					'borderRadius': '10',
					'durationColor': '#ffffff',
					'tooltipTextColor': '#ffffff',
					'buttonOverColor': '#728B94',
					'volumeSliderGradient': 'none',
					'progressGradient': 'medium',
					'bufferGradient': 'none',
					'timeBgColor': '#555555',
					'backgroundColor': '#000000',
					'volumeSliderColor': '#000000',
					'buttonColor': '#454c59',
					'timeColor': '#abb8cf',
					'tooltipColor': '#5F747C',
					'sliderColor': '#000000',
					'backgroundGradient': 'low',
					'height': 24,
					'opacity': 1.0
			 }
		 },
		 'clip': {
			 'autoPlay': false,
			 'onStart': function(clip) {
				 if(clip.isInStream) return;
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a').removeClass('playing').removeClass('paused');
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a[href="'+clip.url+'"]').addClass('playing');
			 },
			 'onPause': function(clip) {
				 if(clip.isInStream) return;
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a').removeClass('playing').removeClass('paused');
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a[href="'+clip.url+'"]').addClass('paused');
			 },
			 'onResume': function(clip) {
				 if(clip.isInStream) return;
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a').removeClass('playing').removeClass('paused');
				 $$('div.pes-tv .element a[href="'+clip.url+'"]').addClass('playing');
			 },
			 'playlist': [{
					'url': 'preroll.jpg',
					'duration': 5,
					'position': 0,
					'linkUrl': 'http://www.google.com',
					'linkWindow': '_blank'
				}, {
					'url': 'postroll.jpg',
					'duration': 5,
					'position': -1,
					'linkUrl': 'http://dfr.me',
					'linkWindow': '_blank'
				}
			]
		}
	});
	$$('a.video').addEvent('click', function(event) {
		if(event) event.stop();
		var href = this.get('href');
		$f('pes-tv-player').play(href);
	});

As you can see, there's some MooTools code controlling the 'playlist'-style functionality, but the core problem is that.. the postroll ad plays, then stops. Then if I click to play again, the preroll ad shows, then the main one, then that's it.

Is there some problem I'm unaware of with using playlists like this?

Any help is infinitely appreciated - thanks.
