Hi,

I’m interested in using your YouTube wrapper but sadly it doesn’t appear to work in an AIR app.

SecurityError: Error #3207: Application-sandbox content cannot access this feature.
at flash.system::Security$/allowDomain()
at pinosh.ytLCAS3Wrapper::YtLCAS3Wrapper()

Any plans for an AIR-compatible release or a code release?

Cheers,

Rob

Hey,

I am creating a videolibrary using your api , when I load more then one youtube player it doesn,t appear on the stage… is there a solution that you know? do you also had this problem?

the code I use to add all the youtube players is:
//get all youtube videos
for (var j:int=0;j < arrYoutubePlayers.length;j++){
trace(”cretating a youtube player”)
trace(”youtube url: “+ arrYoutubePlayers[j].url)

var yplayer:YoutubePlayer = new YoutubePlayer(getYouTubeVideoUrl(arrYoutubePlayers[j].url));

arrAllPlayers.push(objYt);
}

and then later I all add them to my stage ,thx in advance

Is this a bug which is going to be fixed in the near future? or not?

Hi Ovidiu,

I’m building a wrapper for myself and calls to setVolume seems not to work at all. Did you face this issue and knows how to fix it?

Many thanks!

I’m using LocalConnection to communicate with the player (not your wrapper) and I’m wondering if you could share how you solve the volume problem?

Thanks

Thanks Ovidiu!

Hi, my name is rony.
Is the 2 instances problem is about to fixed in the near future (margin of weeks?)

tnx

Any specific reason this would be working on one site and not another. I had gotten this working on a test site, and when I transferred it over to the live site it won’t load the you tube video.

Hi,
I encountered the same problem as Jeff. The 2 files ytPlayer.swf and ytODLCWrapper.swf are in the same directory. I set a crossdomain.xml file with totally open policy, .
But my application works only from localhost locally and not from the testing location.
It keeps working only if I access directly via the IP address of the server (http://10.0.0.1:8080/myApp/index.html). If I access through the alias name (http://devmachine:8080/myApp/index.html), when it has to load the player, I see through the Firefox “Net” view that it loads the ytPlayer.swf and ytODLCWrapper.swf, but then there are not further calls, and it stops and the player is never loaded. In the working version (i.e. through the IP access) it makes the next call to http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer to get the player and the player appears.
Do you know what the problem can be? Thanks in advance

it doesn’t seem to work when you want to load more than one video into the same player. On stop or clearVideo or stopAndClearVideo I am unable to load another video or even get the youtube player

Ok i got you. I got it to work after a bit of fiddling around and some ingenious debugging…

My problem now comes to when i “move away” from my “video area” and go to somewhere else. It is noted that I would need to (in your case) clear or stop the video to avoid any “residue” of the video being loaded. What could be the best way of “unloading” the video when I move away or exit as I have numerous exit points so i’m trying for something that is “global”

Nope this isn’t working. I used a stopAndClearVideo along with a destroyAndReload and on leaving and coming back to the video area. I cannot re-instantiate the player. Is there anything else that I may have missed here? the class is attached to a movieclip on the time line. so the playhead is going to “jump off” and then “jump back in” in navigating tru the flash…This was the same problem I was encountering for all Youtube wrappers I had seen and tried to use.

Nope this isn’t working either.

i tried using a destroyAndReload but it isnt working…heres a snippet from a class I made with the
————->
modalScreen = this.screen;
modalScreen.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playerStopPlaying);
modalScreen.buttonMode = true;
}
public function playerStopPlaying(e) {
//this.player.stopAndClearVideo();
videoID = ”;
this.player.destroyAndReload();
this.visible = false;
}

public function loadYouTubeVideo(ID) {
var t:TextField = youtubeText as TextField;
if (videoID != ”) {
t.text = ‘Player is on ‘+ this.player.getPlayerState();

this.player.stopVideo();
}
this.videoID = ID;
this.player.loadVideo(videoID);
t.text = ‘Player was on ‘+ this.player.getPlayerState();

// this.player.stopVideo();
// trace(videoID);

//t.text = ‘Player is now ‘+ this.player.getPlayerState();

}

I’m using destroyAndReload because I atleast need to know that when I move away from the video player I can get it back. All i really need it to do is stop playing the video…and then be ready in the event it has to load another one.

this isnt working though this isnt working

doesnt destroying and reloading destroys the object then reloads it…well i wud have expected that the reloading wud re trigger a Player_READY wouldnt it?

ok i tried this
———
public function unloadPlayer(){
//loader.unload();

this.player.addEventListener(YoutubeEvent.PLAYER_READY, this.onYTPlayerReady);
this.player.destroyAndReload();
}
————-

but i’m not receiving ANY PLAYER_READY event.

i’m triggering this action in the middle of a video being played, when the player itself has loaded and ready to play and still nothing….are you sure about this? this could be a new bug

ok this isnt working either…. on triggering an destroy and reload i DON’T get any PLAYER_READY event being fired off. its as if the player was unloaded and a connection cannot be made again. What exactly happens when you destroy?

is there any way that you can expose the local connection object? I’m not getting anything events dispatched after destroying or reloading. now i had been researching and they said that there is some issue about calling destroy from the youtube player from the outside…i dunno what they mean by that but I guess its what is causing the bug in your wrapper as well as everyone elses. nice try though…;-)

Any changes on this?

I´m trying to use the example, but the “player” doesn´t dispachs any event… Could someone help me?

Can’t the ytPlayer.swf and ytODLCWrapper.swf files be included (like the other .as files) in the library swc so that we don’t have to add them to our SRC folder?

Hi – can you do multiple videos in same swf with flash?

What are the license terms for using your code and SWFs? Thanks!

Ok, thanks! Do you provide the AS2 code? I don’t see it anywhere in the downloads.

@admin
Ok thanks! Is the AS2 code available? I don’t see it in the downloads.

hello
im having a bit of a problem, i have the video player on my library.. i add it to stage on user comand, then the user can remove it from stage again.

when i add another time from the library this will not work, why?

thanks in advance

I have a popup in which i am playing playing the you tube movie. It plays fine when i first open the popup but if I close the popup and then re-open it..the stage is blank and the you tube control does not get added. Any idea where I am going wrong ?

@admin

Using vresion v0.8.0m. Below is the code for the close button of the popup. Anything wrong here?

private function closeWin():void
{
this.ytPlayer.stopAndClearVideo();
this.ytPlayer.destroyAndReload();
stopTimers();

dispatchEvent(new Event(”closeWin”,true,false));
}

using the latest version 0.8m. Below is the code for the close button of the popup. Anything wrong here?

private function closeWin():void
{
this.ytPlayer.stopAndClearVideo();
this.ytPlayer.destroyAndReload();
stopTimers();
dispatchEvent(new Event(”closeWin”,true,false));
}

AM using the latest version 0.8m. Below is the code for the close button of the popup. Anything wrong here?

Any luck on this one?

@admin
Is there any Flex example of playing multiple videos in the same swf? I couldnt find one.
