I have been using LiveCode for a couple of weeks now and have a question.
I would like to create a custom video controller with play, stop, rewind etc with LiveCode that shows and hides at the bottom of the screen if you touch the video currently playing in the video player on a mobile device.
I have created the menu page with a selection of 4 videos to choose from and selecting any video goes to the next card and plays the video. On completing the video it goes to the previous card allowing the next selection. The video controls on the Quicktime player with LiveCode are rather crude and I would like to create a better looking interface. Is this possible with LiveCode?
Yes it is possible.
Look at the following commands and functions in the dictionary:
start command
stop command
playStopped message
currentTime property
currentTimeChanged property
playLoudness property
In addition, make sure to look at what's in each entries "see also" list.

I am trying to implement JPlayer on my web site in order to play a "before and after" rendition of the same audio. I would like to use this to allow people to easily compare the effects of an audio processor (e.g. this is "with the EQ", this is "without the EQ").
To do it, I'd like to have:
1 player (1 "Play" button, as simple as that)
2 buttons with "before" and "after" or "without" and "with"
Example:
User clicks on Play, the "before.mp3" version plays...
...if they click on "after" the audio keeps going (it does not rewind) and switches to the "after.mp3" audio file.
...player eventually stops at the end of the clip.
Thanks in advance,
I still have not implemented it and I am brainstorming if this can be done with JPlayer.
I'm trying to make a web page formatted similar to that of Netflix. Where a list of videos are displayed in a div with two arrows in either direction on each side. When the number of videos are more than the width of the window clicking the arrows moves the displayed videos in the corresponding direction by one video.
And(key part), when a video is clicked, the clicked video gets displayed on another div(main part of the screen) with a text of introduction and an excerpt of the video playing in the background of that section, plus a "play" button to start the video.
I would probably be able to sort it out with vanilla code. But this page is managed by WordPress so I would have to plug in my code with wordpress.
My assumption is that hacking the existing elementor code for the video widget would be the quickest way to do it. But I don't know how to find the code corresponding to the functionality I need to modify to customize it to do what I want. I can locate the video-widget file, but still, it's a huge file with lots of code. How do I find the functionality I need specifically to import into my own code?
Thank you and sorry for the verbose phrasing.
I am using the embed playlist widget mentioned here:
https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/widgets/spotify-play-button/
I am able to use the play, pause, next, previous buttons. But I am unable to slide to a different position in the song. I need to go to the Web Player to do that.
Seeking isn't supported by the Spotify Play Button, and I've updated the Spotify Play Button documentation to include that.
I am using the nivo lightbox in my theme I have added a youtube video link , when user clicks on button video starts to play. But it is not playing on full screen. How can I make the video play full screen on nevo lightbox? thanks
I noticed that nobody gives an answer to this question anywhere and I needed it too. Vimeo goes fine but Youtube specically needs the iframe's allowfullscreen="true", so I looked into the code of jquery.nivo.js (and/or jquery.nivo.min.js if you use it). search for "$('<iframe>', and add the option allowfullscreen: true,
Do this search twice and repeat this addition a second time further down. allowfullscreen: 'true', gives the same result, no problem. Whether a boolean (true) or a string ('true') doesn't matter. jquery picks up the additional option flauwlessly and youtube videos will show their fullscreen button nicely. It was probably forgotten by the makers of the nivo lightbox. To add it in the min.js I simply broke the single line in two parts, search for the var and added the option without spaces, after which I concatenated the two parts back again. Works flawlessly. I've used the boolean method but have no special reasons. It may be a fraction faster than the string.
Problem summary:
A sound (stream) placed inside a movie clip that is within another movie clip will start playing continuously when I use the play control to jump around on the main timeline.
Details:
I am using Flash CS3 but the same issue occurs with CS6. I've spent quite a bit time to search/research for the issue but didn't find a solution. To demonstrate the problem, I've reduced the flash movie to a very simple structure.
One the main timeline:
The first frame has a movie clip (Game MC) and a stop action.
Following the first frame, there are several frames, mostly empty except some text.
The last frame has a stop action.
On the Game MC timeline:
There is only one frame. On that frame, there is a movie clip (Card MC), and the stop action.
On the Card MC timeline:
It starts with 3 blank frames and a stop action.
Starting at frame 4, a sound (.wav format) is placed and is set to be "stream."
At the end of this timeline, there is a stop action.
From Flash CS3, I press Ctrl+Enter to test the movie. The movie stops on frame 1 of the main timeline with the card showing, no sound, as expected. Now I use "." to move the play head forward one frame at a time. No problem. I see the frames after the first frame. Still no sound, as expected. So far so good.
The problem starts when I use "," to move the play head backward, the sound in the Card MC starts to play, regardless where the play head is, even when the Game MC (thence the Card MC) is not on the stage. Worse, each press of "," will trigger another start of the same sound overlapping with the previous one. And the sound would continue in loops until I close the swf.
However, the problem will not occur if I place the Card MC directly on the main timeline. It only occurs when it is inside another movie clip (Game MC).
I need to solve this problem because the full version of the flash card game is to be placed in an HTML page with a javascript based play control, which allows the viewer to jump around in the swf timeline.

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

This turns out to be a bug in Flash indeed and was told that it would not be in the next version of Flash. The workaround is to use the Sound class to load and play the sound.
