[UPDATE: old code, proceed at your own risk]
For a recent project I needed a skinnable AS3 Video Player. Everything I found was either over-developed or just didn’t work.
So… I created a super-simple skinnable AS3 FLV player. It’s still got a few kinks, but might be a good starting point for anyone to add-on. Feel free to use as you see fit (pls don’t be a dick and try to go sell it somewhere).
Here is what it has:
- Play / Pause functionality
- Video Scrubbing
- Buffer display
- Jump To section
Here is what it does not have, but what could be extended w/ a little more effort:
- fullscreen
- time display
- sound controls

I like it. I am going to play with it and try add-ons. The best thing about it is that it is almost pure OOP. In fact, the tiny library elements are so minimal they could easily be replaced by a little code. Thanks.
Not sure what all the other packages and classes are doing in there…

@Margot
I just updated the example page here
It’s a lot more encapsulated and I included an example on how to extend in the download.
Good luck.

Why thank you so much! That was quick. It took me a few minutes to realize that I had to reset the class-path in Publish Settings in order to get it to work.
I have been wondering what happened to the cartoon lady with the numb leg in the first version’s video.

Ha! the old video was a proof of concept of the one that is included now. It was an animated piece I did for this website; http://www.mslivingwell.org/ to hopefully help people deal with MS diagnosis.
I always forget about changing the Publish settings too when I use SVN.
