Re: video not working in full screen mode in windows 8/ IE 10 metro browser
Hi, All i know is that direct mode will force the stageVideo mod. i don't know more about wmode window. if its not related to 4.11 and stageVideo, i m sorry to say that i won't be much more helpfull. you'd better try to find help on http://stackoverflow.com which is more suitable for such help then this mailing list i would say. Good luck :) Regards, Seb Le 07/11/2013 11:12, krishna4960 a écrit : Hi Seb, I have set 'wmode' to 'window' in html wrapper. do i need to change that?

Re: video not working in full screen mode in windows 8/ IE 10 metro browser
hi, ok, my workaround was about a bug which appeared with 4.11 i never encontered issue with 4.6 before. but it may be related to same issue. do you force wmode to direct in your html wrapper ?

Re: video not working in full screen mode in windows 8/ IE 10 metro browser
Hi i also got this. Short solution is: call OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = false; at root of your app. Or if you want use stage video, you need to be sure that nothing will be drawn in the display list because stage video is shown under display list. and thus you need backgroundAlpha=0 for your App container. i have put some explanations in the list, you can search for Flex 4.11 + OSMF 2.0 = bug title.

Flex 4.11 + OSMF 2.0 = bug
Hi, it seems i have a bug with the new release, whith use of OSMF 2.0 i installed flex SDK in Flash builder with the latests installer, created a project which only contains a VideoPlayer and set a source value to a mp4 file threw http protocol (its the same with RTMP protocol and a VideoElement value for source). The video play well, but the fullscreen does not show the image, only audio is working fine. Does anyone else has this issue? Thanks Seb
Re: Flex 4.11 + OSMF 2.0 = bug
thats why i asked here first :) after some more tests here is what i have: even without using Videolayer, meaning only using Sprite containing the OSMF component i still have the bug. but it is working fine with flex 4.10 and it is working fine with 4.11 if i disable stageVideo in OSMF with OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = false; so the conclusion could be that it comes from OSMF and not flex, but when i test strobeMediaPlayer with same video here: http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/setup.html and i enable stageVideo, it is working fine also. or this player is also based on OSMF 2.0 it seems that flex application itself prevent fullscreen to be done. i think it has to do with wmode.

Re: Flex 4.11 + OSMF 2.0 = bug
point 2 is workaround to make it sure it display everytimes, but it disables the performance gains from stageVideo. I finally got everything clear now i think: as it is said in the link, justin provided, the stageVideo is displaid under the Display list, so everything that is drawn above can obscure or hide the video in this mode. in flex, by default stageVideo is not used for video not in fullscreen state (because it assumes that theres too much risks to get something above it) and by default in fullscreen it will activate the stageVideo, because it assumes that everything else is hidden. in flex app, by default backgroundAlpha being not null, it will obscure the video when it uses stageVideo, so it hides the video in fullscreen even if we use directly OSMF components. That is the bug i had in 4.11 if you add wmode=direct in app html wrapper, it will force videos to use stageVideo everytime, that means also in non fullscreen mode. thats why if you set this mode in 4.11, it hides the video everytime! So without VideoPlayer component: we just need to set backgroundAlpha=0 and it will fix fullscreen, and non fullscreen with wmode=true. But for the VideoPlayer SDK's component, it is not enough! We still have 4.11 bug with: no video displaid at fullscreen + no video even in non fullscreen with wmode=true That is because of the videoPlayer's skin which contains a black background Rect under VideoDisplay, which will be displaid above video in stageVideo mode. Trying to have stageVideo usage as default behavior would require changes that would be issue for backward compatibility of visual designs. (like backgroundAlpha to 0 as default) So the safest solution is to set OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = false; in SDK and tell that Flex SDK don't use stageVideo by default (like it was the case with previous versions). but if someone wants to use stageVideo, he must: 1- call OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = true; at App creationComple for example (depends where you put the false set in SDK) 2- add backgroundAlpha=0 to App 3- use a custom skin for VideoPlayer component, in which he deletes the black background Rect 4- add wmode=true to get stageVideo in non fullscreen state also in any cases, we can't let 4.11 default behavior with this bug.

FAQ page error? + flex on flash player 10.1
Hi, I may be wrong but, it seems that in the FAQ page http://flex.apache.org/dev-faq.html in Will my code work on Platform X? section, it is said that current Flex is working on Windows 2000. But the minimal flash player version supported is flash player 10.2. And i see in the Adobe release note http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/release-note/release-notes-flash-player-10-2.html that The Adobe Flash Player 10.2 no longer supports Microsoft Windows 2000 and Macintosh PowerPC-based computers. Did someone test current flex on windows 2000 ? Could we also explain in the FAQ that mac PowerPc are not supported by flex? i take that opportunity to bring back the subject of making flex run on 10.1 Because theres still some mac PowerPC around (i dont know about windows 2000), and they have no possibility to install the required flash player for latests flex based apps, thats very annoying. i found this discussion in mails archive on the subject: http://www.mail-archive.com/users@flex.apache.org/msg00361.html Thanks Seb
[OT] - open flash library announcement.
Hi all, Sorry for the off topic, even if for me its not off topic at all, but a possible path for future of flex. Here is a presentation from Joshua Granick announcing openFL the open flash library project. http://www.silexlabs.org/142542/the-blog/blog-silex-labs/wwx2013-speech-joshua-granick-openfl-announcement/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AtmdGbQkTQ Its an interesting thinking about the flash history, and the future for cross platform strategy. OpenFL (ex NME) is a project to mimic the flash API on every target natively without the need of a plugin (or even an embeded VM) its based on haxe programming language, made entirely to be efficiently cross platform compiling. with a lot of modern language features. At the end of his presentation, theres a question about porting flex to openFL. Joshua said almost everything i think myself about flash/HTML5/cross platform which is: - the plugin/VM way of targeting cross platform was great in the 90s but is not good solution anymore in the new mobile platform world. Cross compilation and using native runtime directly is the way now. - the GPU is the best way to do cross platform efficient display for the near future (once webGL is supported everywhere). Its the future standard (and its more consistent standard than others in my opinion) - haxe language is the evolution of as3 language that Adobe should have created. - flash is a zombi technology as a runtime solution. But the api is still good enough, and the whole ecosystem that was based on those runtimes like every libraries made in as3 is still relevant but has no relevant runtime anymore to run on it for the long term. Theres an orphan community since Adobe has taken the HTML5 path for everything that is not gaming. (BTW flash game dev can and do switch to haxe for performances and native cross platform targetting easiness) The last piece that we need is a as3 - haxe auto convertion tool to give second life of actual flash content, and propose a smooth transition path for the future out of Adobe runtimes. In one word i would say that what they try to do with haxe/openFL is what i would have liked Adobe do to give a live of their flash ecosystem in an HTML5 world (a no plugin / VM word). This was my humble opinion. Feel free to disagree, but i wanted to share the joshua's presentation with flex community. Seb ps: to complete, this is the presentation from nicolas Cannasse about haxe itself: http://www.silexlabs.org/140469/the-blog/wwx2013-speech-nicolas-cannasse-what-is-haxe/ he defines haxe as a cross platform toolkit as a core technology for cross platform strategy on which openFL is built, on which a future flex could be built (IMO).
Re: Flash Platform Whitepaper
Good thing, we did not start to rewrite flex in AS4 :) At least it proves that Adobe can change its strategic moves very quickly and 180° is always possible, even if you can't count on it of course. Does this white paper mean that theres no plan to put Air on windows 8, even in captive runtime like iOs? it would be a very bad news for Flex on short term (as a multi target SDK) if windows 8 has success and flex don't run on it. Le 30/01/2013 00:42, Alex Harui a écrit : Hi Folks, Adobe published an update to the Flash Platform Whitepaper today. Most of it doesn¹t directly affect us, but one item does: Adobe has decided to focus its future runtime development on top of the existing architecture, as opposed to a completely new architecture (Flash ³Next²) and language (ActionScript ³Next²). So Apache Flex doesn¹t have to worry about porting to a new VM/language. That should save us lots of time and distraction. Go Apache Flex!
