670 FLVPlayback Component (Flash Professional Only)

Parameters

w A number that specifies the width of the video player.

h A number that specifies the height of the video player.

Returns

Nothing.

Description

Method; sets the width and height simultaneously. Because setting either one, individually,

can cause automatic resizing, setting them simultaneously can be more efficient than setting

the

width and height properties individually.

autoSize is true, this method has no effect because the player sets its own dimensions. If

the

maintainAspectRatio is true and the autoSize property is false, changing the width

or height causes automatic resizing.

Example

The following example calls the setSize() method to set the size of the FLVPlayback

instance to a width of 150 pixels and a height of 150 pixels. The

resize event handler shows

the actual width and height because the

maintainAspectRatio property is true by default,

so an automatic resizing maintains the aspect ratio.

Drag the 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_FLVPlybkh

import mx.video.*;

// maintainAspectRatio is true by default so dimensions will reflect that

my_FLVPlybk.setSize(150, 150);

var listenerObject:Object = new Object();

listenerObject.resize = function(eventObject:Object):Void {

trace("Player's width is: " + my_FLVPlybk.width)

trace("Player's height is: " + my_FLVPlybk.height)

};

my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("resize", listenerObject);

my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = "http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/
