When loading Youtube videos through the StageWebView Air component I need the video to be scaled down to the viewport size, displaying black bars is ok, however what I end up seeing is a cropped version of the original size of the video instead.
I'm not seeing any extra parameters that I could use, the API seems to be very limited.
Any ideas how to play the video so even if the source is larger I can resize it to the viewport size?.
On
I use this code for Android give it a try :(it resize the page size )
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.media.StageWebView;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.system.Capabilities;
this.visible = false ;
var webView: StageWebView = new StageWebView();
webView.stage = stage;
function videoing(VID): void {/// VID is the video id
stage.setAspectRatio(StageAspectRatio.LANDSCAPE);
var vidLink:String = "https://www.youtube.com/embed/"+ VID +"?autoplay=1" ;
trace(vidLink);
webView = new StageWebView();
webView.stage = this.stage;
webView.viewPort = new Rectangle(-(stage.stageHeight/2)+100,0, stage.stageHeight*2+40 , stage.stageWidth*2 - 160);
webView.loadURL(vidLink);
this.stage.focus = stage;
}
//////////////// dispose the video ///////////////////////
exit_btn.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fl_OptionsMenuHandler);
function fl_OptionsMenuHandler(event: KeyboardEvent = null ): void {
if ((event.keyCode == Keyboard.BACK) && (webView)) {
event.preventDefault();
webView.stage = null;
webView.dispose();
webView = null ;
stage.setAspectRatio(StageAspectRatio.PORTRAIT);
}
}
On Android it needs to add
<application android:hardwareAccelerated="true"/>
Normally I display Youtube as shown in this other Answer (but that loads a Flash Player version, which you may not want). PS: Remember it's use
.com/v/VID_IDfor Flash Player or use.com/embed/VID_IDfor HTML5 Player.You say you have similar code as the Android example posted as Answer? Why not try to open an
iframeinstead since that would allow a resize option?An example of a custom size Youtube iframe...
To open within iframe you'd have to make a dynamic webpage by code. Code below is untested but is based on this idea from Adobe forums. Just a starting point you could adjust / fix...
