Lee Brimelow's XML video playlist tutorial

[weisswolfen]

I'm trying to get Lee's code to work to no avail, does anyone see where I'm making a mistake? I belive is the XML part because the player works with
ns.play("http://mysite.com/sample.flv");(gets deleted by Lee to get items XML loaded)
This is the code:
*****************

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);

var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

theVideo.attachVideo(ns);

ns.setBufferTime(10);

ns.onStatus = function(info) {
trace(info.code);
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full") {
bufferClip._visible = false;
}
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty") {
bufferClip._visible = true;
}
if(info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
ns.seek(0);
}
}



playButton.onRelease = function() {
ns.pause();
}

rewindButton.onRelease = function() {
ns.seek(0);
}

var videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus,100);
var amountLoaded:Number;
var duration:Number;

ns["onMetaData"] = function(obj) {
duration = obj.duration;
}

function videoStatus() {
amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded / ns.bytesTotal;
loader.loadbar._width = amountLoaded * 208.9;
loader.scrub._x = ns.time / duration * 208.9;
}

var scrubInterval;

loader.scrub.onPress = function() {
clearInterval(videoInterval);
scrubInterval = setInterval(scrubit,10);
this.startDrag(false,0,this._y,208,this._y);
}

loader.scrub.onRelease = loader.scrub.onReleaseOutside = function() {
clearInterval(scrubInterval);
videoInterval = setInterval(videoStatus,100);
this.stopDrag();
}

function scrubit() {
ns.seek(Math.floor((loader.scrub._x/208)*duration));
}

var theMenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
theMenu.hideBuiltInItems();
_root.menu = theMenu;

var item1:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("::::: Video Controls :::::",trace);
theMenu.customItems[0] = item1;

var item2:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Play / Pause Video",pauseIt,true);
theMenu.customItems[1] = item2;

var item3:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Replay the Video",restartIt);
theMenu.customItems[2] = item3;

var item4:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("© 2005 Lee Brimelow",trace,true);
theMenu.customItems[3] = item4;

function pauseIt() {
ns.pause();
}

function stopIt() {
ns.seek(0);
ns.pause();
}

function restartIt() {
ns.seek(0);
}

var vlist:XML = new XML();
vlist.ignoreWhite=true;

vlist.onLoad = function() {
var videos:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(i=0;i<videos.lenght;i++){
videoList.addItem(videos[i].attributes.desc,videos[i].attributes.url);
}

ns.play(videoList.getItemAt(0).data);
videoList.selectedIndex = 0;
}

var vidList:Object = new Object();

vidList.change = function() {
ns.play(videoList.getItemAt(videoList.selectedInde x).data);
}

videoList.adddEventListener("change",vidList);

vlist.load("videos.xml");
************
XML is as per Lee, List has Instance -videoList_and all are in the same directory.Thanks

Attach your .fla & .xml file.

These are the changes:

// xml playlist
// create an XMl object
var vidList:XML = new XML();
// ignore white spaces
vidList.ignoreWhite = true;
vidList.onLoad = function() {
// put the nodes of xml into array
var videoArray:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
// iterate through video array
// and add videos to the listbox
for (var i = 0; i<videoArray.length; i++) {
videoList.addItem(videoArray[i].attributes.desc, videoArray[i].attributes.url);
}
// when xml is loaded play first item
ns.play(videoList.getItemAt(0).data);
// highlight first video in listbox
videoList.selectedIndex = 0;
};
// create a listener that responds
// to changes in the listbox
var vidListener:Object = new Object();
vidListener.change = function() {
// play the item selected in listbox
ns.play(videoList.getItemAt(videoList.selectedInde x).data);
};
// register the event listener to listbox
videoList.addEventListener("change", vidListener);
// load xml file
vidList.load("videos.xml");
