few questions about the JC Player 2:

I noticed YouTube videos only work with the flash version, is HTML5 in the works or planned any time soon?

Also how skinnable are both the Flash and HTML versions? Can you actually change the button bitmaps for play/pause/volume etc? Or is it just colors of templates?

Thanks!

We proudly announce that we have just launched our new video player component.
JC Player 2.0 provides a collection of video players and playlists based on templates, each player template being available both in Flash and HTML5. JC Player 2.0 supports most of the video formats that Adobe Flash Player and HTML5 browsers can display, so you can create video players with general video content, YouTube playlists or music playlists for your website.

The Flash version of the JC Player 2.0 is compatible with the following Flash IDE versions: Adobe Flash CS3, Adobe Flash CS4 and Adobe Flash CS5. The component was developed in ActionScript 3.0 and can be used with Flash Player 9+.

The HTML5 version of the JC Player 2.0 was developed to work on any JavaScript enabled browser with HTML5 and CSS3 support, including the latest Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer 9+ browsers. It also works on mobile devices such as iOS and Android-enabled smartphones and tablets.

Problem with youtube videos playing. (1 reply)

user1198111 — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 03:21:56 -0500

When I use Embed_SWF template, it works great. But when I use Embed_JavaScript it doesn't play the same source.xml videos. Yes I changed to youtube but still have just black video screen (play buttons etc... are displayed).

It means that youtube video source must be in some specific format too or how? But my videos are playing in HTML5 not flash mode on youtube player without problem.

close window when video stops problem (1 reply)

RobbieC — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 07:58:20 -0600

Hi there, I thought I had this under control, but have just discovered a problem...

I'm opening JC Player in a .swf file via a Lightview popup window. When the video finishes playing the following code successfully closes the popup window:

import JCPlayerEvent;
player.addEventListener(JCPlayerEvent.STOP, stopHandler);
function stopHandler(event:JCPlayerEvent):void {
var js:URLRequest=new URLRequest();
js.url="javascript:parent.Lightview.hide()";
navigateToURL(js,'_self');
}

This works fine in all browsers apart from INTERNET EXPLORER!!! It throws up a dialogue box error stating "Internet Explorer cannot download. Unspecified error". This is a real pain as I can't think how to re-write the script to get around this problem...

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I thank you in advance for any enlightenment

Cheers

Rob

Volume property (2 replies)

tbohn — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 03:15:09 -0600

I want to remember the volume level a user sets in JCPlayer between page loads (by passing the value out to javascript into a cookie).
If I use the property jcplayer.volume, the value only comes back with the initial start value (in my case 70).
If the volume is set using the slider and then I output the .volume property it never changes from its initial value.
This makes it impossible for me to detect the volume set by the user.
Is this a known bug?

StartPhotoSource (4 replies)

apointfilm — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 11:14:24 -0600

Hello
I use the jcplayer with flash CS5.5.

Now, we have to publish an filmclip and I like to place an startup picture (StartPhotoSource) on it. When I open the final swf file on my pc (local), the StartPhoto is displayed.
On our webserver (typo3) the picture is not displayed.
The picture (JPG) is uploaded in the same directory as the swf & the videofile is placed.

Is there something I need to do now?
Thanks for your support

Is there any way to adjust JCplayer controller alignment?
I tried margins, but controller section adjusted based on center position.

JC Playlist not working on master SWF (1 reply)

kanuzaoooo — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:50:35 -0500

Hello everyone,

We are using the JCPlaylist on out flash project and something strange is happening. We have 4 sub-swfs for each interface domain and 3 of those have a JCPlaylist. Two of those share the same item definition ( size and color settings) and the last one has a complete different setup. The 4 sub-swfs are aggregate on a master swf. This swf those not used on its library any instance of the Playlist!! Without a JcPlaylist and the JcPlaylist Assets folder the playlist on the master swf don't work. This is kinda strange since the sub swfs have a compiled playlist already in place. Can some please tell us how do we used the JCPlaylist component in separate swfs with separate design without one affecting the other?

Regards

Return FROM Full Screen button not firing a Flash event (2 replies)

marcotech — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 11:11:53 -0500

I have a JC Player video playing in Full Screen mode (via the fullscreen button from the player controls). I also have AS3 that detects when the player enters and leaves Full Screen mode by listening to the Event.RESIZE event.

The problem is that when I leave the full screen mode by clicking the button in the player control (looks like two overlapping squares), the event is not fired.

However, the event fires correctly when I leave full screen mode by pressing the ESCAPE key on my keyboard.

Is there an event that gets fired when I use the player control's button? I read in another thread that there was supposed to be an event for this, but it didn't get programmed.

Here's my code for my event (which again, works with the ESCAPE key):

this.stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, this.handleStageResize);

function handleStageResize(e:Event):void
{          
  if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN) {
      // do something when I enter full screen
  }
  else 
  {
     //do something else when I am NOT entering full screen 
  }
}

Full Screen for FLVPlayBack component and JCPlaylist (1 reply)

user582626 — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 01:53:51 -0600

Hi, I am having issue with making my movie go full screen whenever i plug the jcPlayList to the stage.
Without the jcPlayList, the flvPlayback and its skin go to full screen using the full screen button on the skin.
But as soon as I plug in jcPlayList, I get a black screen. When i close the full screen, the movie moves to the top right hand corner of the page.
Any help please

Help with embedding in existing flash site (2 replies)

user582626 — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 08:00:23 -0600

Hi All,
Can anyone advise how I can embedd the jcpPlayer in my existing flash site?
My flash site has dynamic areas that are prepopulated with data during run-time from a php file.
I now need to prepopulate the video section of my site with the player, but I havent been successful with this.
The php file needs to update mysite with details of the flv file to play.
Please any form of help would do.
p.s: I am a .Net expert but a flash newbie. I should be able to handle suggestions as I am ok with javascript, and can manage actionScripts.

Regards
NewBoy

Text displays oddly. (1 reply)

BillCTS — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 01:42:00 -0600

Greetings!

Issue:

The text next to my thumbs displays only some characters. "Page01" may display as "pe1". All subsequent items only disply the letter "p". Also, in the extreme right of the of the Playlist, the number "1" appears for some reason.

Text will only display correctly in the first item if I remove all other text fields from the XML file.

Does this type of issue ring a bell with anyone?

Here is the format of my XML list:

pictures/01.png
p01

thumbnail/01.png

Thanks to all who take a look at this.

ON_CUE_POINT (1 reply)

user482913 — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 07:58:35 -0600

Hello,
I'm new to JC Player. I'm trying to use an if statement to detect my navigation cuepoints that are embedded in the FLV, and then move a little chapter marker arrow when the appropriate cuepoint is detected. I have done something similar in FLV Playback component, and after reading your user guide, thought I could figure this out, but I must be missing something. My instance of JC Player is called "presentation."
I tried using event.info, event.info.name, no luck. When playing, the player passes the cuepoint with nothing happening. I need to be able to distinguish the cuepoints from each other, and I can't think of a way to do that without an if statement. Does JC Player not recognize the "name" property? Am I missing something obvious? Thank you!!!

import JCPlayerEvent; 
presentation.addEventListener(JCPlayerEvent.ON_CUE_POINT,cuePointHandler); 
function cuePointHandler(event:JCPlayerEvent):void { 
if(event.info.name=="01_Start"){
yellowarrow.y = 131;
}
if(event.info.name=="02_PRP"){
yellowarrow.y = 176;
}
if(event.info.name=="03_Diff"){
yellowarrow.y = 224;
}
}

The board keeps putting "winking smiley" instead of a right parentheses.
