Hi FlashCoders,
I've got an issue when swapping (progressive) video content over in a
single Flash 8 FLVPlayer component.
I'm setting contentPath to load a movie and start playing it. When
the user changes the movie I'm simply resetting contentPath to the
new files path which changes the stream and starts playing the new FLV.
This works fine for all FLV's that contain both Video and Audio
layers. The problem occurs when I swap from a FLV with visual
content to one with just Audio. After loading the Audio the last
visual frame of the previous video is left visible on-screen.
Is there anyway I can either:
- Clear that visual 'buffer'
- Find out whether the FLV is only audio to then either load a
default visual and/or set the video._visible to false
I've tried the video.stop() and video.closeVideoPlayer() prior to
opening the new stream, but these do not seem to clear it.
(Tangent: calling video.stop() without a loaded Video in place seems
to make Flash & Flash player pretty unstable and causes both
applications to crash)
Thinking about loading a blank movie between change overs, but any
other suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Dan Efergan
