FLVplayer - quicktime-like feature

Inside the zip you find:

- flvplayer_qtlike.fla
- flvplayer.swf

This is an improved version of the widespread flvplayer that many video bloggers use.

>>>>>>>> DOWNLOAD - flvplayer.zip (20KB) < <<<<<<<<<

As its most important feature the player calculates the user current average bandwidth, so that the playback of the movie starts exactly when the right amount of data has been downloaded.

No stop and re-buffer again. Your movie will play smoothly till the end. This gives your users a better user experience, even at lower bandwidth.

A second feature is the automatic still-frame display. Just place a jpg with the same name of your flv movie (mymovie.flv and mymovie.jpg) and the player displays the jpg until you click and start “loading…”.

Instructions:
to UPGRADE from plain flvplayer version just overwrite your flvplayer.swf file with the one you find in flvplayer.zip.
to a NEW INSTALL just follow the instructions here, and then overwrite flvplayer.swf with the one you find the flvplayer.zip. Unzip the content of flvplayer.zip

A little but useful widget is within the .fla. It’s a debug window, basically it provides the trace() feature within the browser environment (toggle the window pressing CTRL+SHIFT+D).
