private function handlerMetadataReceived (event:Event):void {

this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,handlerMetadataReceived);
}
}


And when I load a new source of video:


video.source = this.getVideoUrl(value.video,0,this._sessionID, this._userBP);
video.load();
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, handlerMetadataReceived);


Video is a VideoDisplay object. Works good for me, Is anyone could try to show 2 videos sequentially and load metadata?

I have a question about metadatareceived event: I load 2 videos sequentially, and before that I add an event listener at my video control: video.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.METADATA_RECEIVED, handlerMetadataReceived);, then I load the first video, ok handler is called, but when I load the second, handler is never called!!!

Maybe handler needs to be added twice??

Best,

Yeah, I’m not sure how many fixes get back-ported to the Flex 201 framework. I don’t suspect too many (we’re more focused on Flex 3 at the moment, naturally).
As for VideoDisplay.smoothing, I know it has been mentioned/requested before. You may want to search the public Flex bug base at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/ and file a bug report/feature request if there isn’t one already.

In fact, now is a great time to file any bugs/enhancement requests you may have. With Flex 3 development slowing down, Flex 4 planning is starting.

myVideo.addEventListener(“metadataReceived”, metadataReceivedHandler);

I’m also not clear on why you use an Array to store the metadata data. I’d use an Object instead and also not exclude nested Array and Object data. For instance, when using Burak’s metadata injector, data is added with keyframe timestamps that can be used to stream video through PHP or Coldfusion:
http://www.buraks.com/flvmdi/
http://www.realitystorm.com/experiments/flash/streamingFLV/
http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2005/11/2/Streaming-flv-video-via-PHP-take-two

In your example that data is discarded.
Here’s what I’m currently using instead:

    var obj:Object = {};
    var item:String;
    // videoDisplay.metadata;
    var meta:Object = evt.info;
    var value:*;
        for (item in meta) {
            if (meta[item] is Array) {
                value = ArrayUtil.toArray(meta[item]);
            }else{
                value = meta[item]
            }
            obj[item] = value;
        }
    trace(ObjectUtil.toString(obj));

I built a simple test case and it seems to be working for me in build 182505. Do you know which exact version of the SDK you’re using? If not, you can find out by typing “mxmlc -version” in your target /bin/ directory.
