I am trying to make a video player that after it is done playing it will pop up 3 choices for the user to choose from and play the next video. It all works when i test it on my machine, but when i put it up on a test site nothing loads into the empty movie clips that i have in the player. Any help would be great… i have tried everything i can think of and i am going crazy…
Hmmm… your description leaves a bit to be desired. A couple things that will make your question easier to answer:
-Are you loading the videos from an external source?
-If you are, have you checked to make sure your Flash file has the correct path/URL of your videos?
Answering those should give enough information to enable us to help.
you should following thing in you flas
1 ) check the content path which ru giving
-
how u load the flv if this have too much size then it will take time
-
if playing this video from fms sever then ur check ur testing server suported the flv’s or rtmp protocol
sorry i knew i left some things out.
anyway i am not loading the flv as the choice i am actually loading a thumbnail that i made for each movie into an empty movie clip and after 5 seconds i have all 3 get reloaded with new images.
I have checked to make sure the path is correct. i am loading the thumbnails from a folder called “thumbs” and it is within the same directory as the swf file so i have the link as “thumbs/thumbnail_name.jpg” i tried a whole day and can not figure it out.
Yeah, the only trouble I can think of would be the path to the thumbnail… try using the full URL of the thumb. If that doesn’t get it working, I don’t know what is wrong with your test site
