[Flashcoders] Seek cue points from texthtml list.

2009-08-04 Thread Paul Jinks
Hi I have a video player which takes event cue points in the flv and outputs them as a rolling list of bullet points (kind of a summary of what's being said). I do this by listening for the cue point name and putting it within html list tags which are then displayed in a text field. texthtml = ("

[Flashcoders] Creating a list from actionscript cue points in Flash video

2008-06-05 Thread Paul Jinks
I'm something of a noob, so bear with me here. I think this is pretty straightforward, but I'm stuck. I have a 'talking head' flv with actionscript cue points whose names I want to appear in a textfield named mainText to act as a summary of what's being said, a bit like powerpoint. Thus: mainText
