306 Working with Video
maintainAspectRatio A Boolean value that, if true, resizes the video player within the
FLVPlayback component to retain the source FLV aspect ratio; the source FLV will still be
scaled and the FLVPlayback component itself will not be resized. The
autoSize
parameter takes precedence over this parameter. The default value is
true.
skin A parameter that opens the Select Skin dialog box and allows you to choose a skin
for the component. The default value is None. If you choose None, the FLVPlayback
instance does not have control elements that allow the user to play, stop, or rewind the
FLV, or take other actions that the controls make possible. If the
autoPlay parameter is
set to true, the FLV plays automatically. For more information, see “Selecting a
predesigned skin” in Chapter 22, “FLVPlayback Component (Flash Professional Only),”
in the Components Language Reference.
totalTime The total number of seconds in the source FLV. The default value is 0. If you
use progressive download, Flash uses this number if it is set to a value greater than zero.
Otherwise, Flash tries to take the time from metadata.
volume A number from 0 to 100 that represents the percentage of maximum volume at
which to set the volume.
Specifying the contentPath parameter
If you imported a local video clip into Flash for use with progressively downloaded or
streaming video content, you must update the
contentPath parameter of the FLVPlayback
component prior to uploading your content to a web server. The
contentPath parameter lets
you specify the name and location of the FLV on the server, as well as implying the playback
method (for example, progressively download using HTTP, or streaming from Flash
Communication Server using RTMP).
NOTE
If you’re using FCS or FVSS, this value is ignored; the total time of the FLV is taken
from the server.
