Question

A question, on mobile video play

Hello,

Is VideoPlayer/VideoDisplay can run on mobile devices (?) I'm using with VideoPlayer and MP4 files from local storage - the UI does showing the player and the playhead tip is moving - but black screen, no sound. I also tried with FLV but no use.

I'm I missing something or the videoPlayer is not meant for device run (?)

Any suggestion/help would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

With Regards,

Santanu

Thank you! I now can able to play a video with VideoDisplay over stage, probably it was the codec. Though I'm still trying to understand how this video works in device - is it only added to the 'View' stage in a mobile project (?) I've tried to play a clip with VideoDisplay inside a list's itemRenderer - it does playing well, but it seems it stuck to its position where it was been added. That means even I scroll the list, itemrenederer's position were changed, but the video remain playing in the same X, Y - seems like it didn't even added inside the itemRenderer component. Why is this, any suggestion (?)

Thank you once again!

Edit: I forgot to mention, this issue happens while playing over device.

I'm glad I could point you in the right direction as I suspected it might have been a codec issue.

As for your itemrenderer issue, I am not sure as my experience with Flex is pretty limited. I usually develop using straight AS3.

I might suggest, though, that you create a new thread with this new question as it seems like the problem has now shifted.
