method to set the playhead 20 seconds into the video, and calls the
seekSeconds()
method to begin playing the FLV file at that point.
Drag an FLVPlayback component to the Stage, and give it an instance name of
my_FLVPlybk. Then add the following code to the Actions panel on Frame 1 of the
Timeline:
/**
Requires:
- FLVPlayback component on the Stage with an instance name of my_FLVPlybk
*/
import mx.video.*;
my_FLVPlybk.autoPlay = false;
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.ready = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
my_FLVPlybk.seekSeconds(4);
my_FLVPlybk.play();
};
my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("ready", listenerObject);
my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = "http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/
