FLVPlayback, can't disable buttons

[mrand01]

You can access the various buttons in the FLVPlayback component like this:


myVidPlayer.playPauseButton


They are exposed as movie clips...when I try this:


myVidPlayer.playPauseButton.enabled = false;


it never works, the button is still enabled and able to be hit. Any idea how to disable these?

Assuming myVidPlayer is the instance name of your FLVPlayback component, try the following:


myVidPlayer._uiMgr._controlsEnabled = false;


You dont get any granular control, but all controls are disabled except, notably, the seekbar (I'm still looking for a way to disable it).

Hope this works for you..

did you ever get this to work? I am having the same problem!

[mrand01]

no idea how this got bumped up...I don't remember if I fixed it or not lol, and have no idea where to check

The actual path to the controls in the FLV playback component looks like this...

player.skin_mc.layout_mc

inside layout_mc you have the individual controls such as playpause_mc and volumeBar_mc
