@aaron:
All the plugins now share some common code base. So controlbar plugin also needs those classes to be present, while compiling. You will have to checkout those source files from the flowplayer-plugins project.

Hope it helps. If you need further assistence drop me a line at chetan [at] riageeks.com

Thx

I am facing few issues with Custom Plugin, I guess, this is the best place to post them.
1. How do I set the plugin configuration/PluginModel at runtime. I want to change the width/height, left/right property in my plugin. I can change the PluginModel object, but changes don't reflect in the UI? How do I invalidate the plugin, is there any particular method, I should be invoking ?

2. While referring to the flowplayer source and the documentation fromhttp://releases.flowplayer.org/apidoc-latest/index.html, I noticed that LayoutEvent and Layout classes, don't have any documentation. Are these classes of use or do I need to make use of these classes, to change width/height at runtime

3. PluginModel, exposes a couple of dispatch methods, but I don't understand, how I can use them.

Could anybody reply to these questions, to clarify my doubts.

Thank you

Yes, you can remove the "Play Again" button, at the end of video or anytime.

clip: 
{ 
	//When video play is finished
	onFinish: function()
	{ 
		//hide the controlbar
		$f().getPlugin("play").hide();
	}
}

Hope it helps.

The image you are referring to, is called a Preloader. Yes, you can change that. For that you will have to change Preloader in Resources.fla, generate swc of it. And then compile and build player from source.

Hope it helps

I have few questions, to understand your problem:
1. Are you referring to the Flash ContentPlugin ?
2. Can you host a sample page, or provide a script/javascript, which can show, the issue you are facing ?

You can try Content plugin to do this. Or you may need a custom plugin for your flowplayer. Let me know if you need a custom plugin, which can do it.

Thanks

@sledge:
Just to clarify, I am not an actual flowplayer developer. I do custom plugin development, flex application development, and everything which comes into ActionScript 3. :)

Well, you can add listener for onClick, if you want to. And you will have to build the player again.

You need to edit the fla files library items[you will need to use Flash Authoring tool(Flash CS3 and above)]. and compile it again.

Hope it helps.

Reviewed your build.properties file again. and noticed this:
mxmlc_bin=/mxmlc.exe

it should be
mxmlc_bin=${flex3bindir}/mxmlc.exe

My best solution is checkout the source files again. I think you have made major changes in build.properties file. So, few properties are not working. Below is few part of my build.properties file.

# you need to adjust following to point to your Flex SDK
flex3dir=D:/tools/flex3.5

# change following to point to .exe files when running on Windows
mxmlc_bin= ${flex3bindir}/mxmlc.exe
compc_bin= ${flex3bindir}/compc.exe
asdoc_bin= ${flex3bindir}/asdoc.exe

Also, you get error=2, only when it isn't able to find out the executable. So, problem is with your path to binary files only.

Hope that explanation helps.

Okay, got your problem. You have given path to "Flex Builder 3" in flex3dir property. While it should be path to the sdk folder, so it should be something like:
flex3dir=D:/Programs/Adobe/Flex Builder 3/sdks/3.2.0
Note: use your version, and specify the same folder, it may vary to 3.2.0 or 3.5.0 or something like that. Check in "Flex Builder 3" folder.

Hope it should resolve it :)

Strange, I can see all other "/", but not in flex3dir property. I noticed you are using ANT 1.8. Try degrading to v 1.7 and build again. Let me know how it goes.
