AS3 Video Player tutorials roundup
Basic
1.Creating a Video Portfolio (FLV Video Player) in Flash
This tutorial will teach you how to create an interactive FLV video player that lets the user select which video to load at run time. All the video data will be saved outside the SWF file and will be streamed upon selection only. We will create this scene by making use of the FLVPlayback Component
2.Inserting Video in Flash
3.Customizing FLVPlayback Components
5.Buiding a Video Player Application in Flash CS3
Start with a new Actionscipt 3 document. Create or import your art.
Open the components panel. Create a new layer an call it vid. Drag a copy of the FLVPlayback component to the stage. This is where the video will show.
6.Captions for Video with Flash CS3
If you were to believe Adobe, this is the greatest software release of all time. Meanwhile, many consumers are excited about the new features in Dreamweaver CS3, Illustrator CS3, Photoshop CS3, Flash CS3, and Fireworks CS3. Having been involved in the testing process for the apps, I can be forgiven for my indifference to the chatter. When you use it, play with it, and crash it day in and day out, you become a bit jaded. At least I was until I dug into Flash for a book I was writing and discovered a feature that no one was talking about. (Don’t believe me? As of this writing, it has yet to be mentioned by Adobe and was totally overlooked during the unveiling in March.) The feature: the captioning component in Flash Professional CS3.
7.How Do I… Create a custom Web user interface for my Flash video?
Adobe Flash’s video technology is all over the Web and is an example of how Internet video has finally arrived after overcoming many technological hurdles during the past decade. (Have you ever been to YouTube.com? You may have heard of it.) The latest version of Flash, CS3, makes it extremely easy to build a custom video player to show off your Flash Video (.FLV) files.

3.Creating subtitles for flash video using XML
Overview
This tutorial will show how to create subtitles on-the-fly from content stored in XML format. It assumes that you know how to create an FLV (Flash Video) file. A sample FLV file is provided, along with sample subtitles, but you can also use your own if you wish.
4.Flash video template: Dynamic video playlist
- XML file as the data source (playlist.xml)
- Custom-made player for playback (VideoPlaylist.swf)
- Custom-made player source file (VideoPlayer.fla)
- External ActionScript files (VideoPlayer.as, Thumb.as)
- Adobe Flash Media Server if you plan to present your content via streaming delivery
5.ActionScript 3.0 Flash video gallery
Build a video gallery presentation containing multiple videos with related information for each. Use up to 36 thumbnail videos in an interactive screen to easily navigate to full-length videos with descriptions and related links.
6.Flash video template: Video presentation with navigation
This Flash template is great for basic video presentations—situations when you want the user to see the main topics of a video and be able to navigate quickly to them. It does not contain some of the more sophisticated features, such as synchronizing content on the screen with the video playback, as described in my other tutorial, Spokesperson presentation with synchronized graphics. However, you should have little trouble modifying this template to work well for your own purposes.
7.Flash AS3 ( actionscript 3): XML video player, plays FLV files from XML
This is a Flash AS3 (ActionScript 3 ) example that combines a couple things that I’ve posted in the past, including the for loop and xml loading. So we use those methods in this FLV Video playlist sample. Since the xml file is in RSS 2.0 type format, you could also use this for your video feed.

Video Player Source
1.Video Player a la Hulu!
This is my stab at a Hulu-inspired video player. My version does not have all the bells and whistles that Hulu has and uses progressive download instead of the Flash Media Server. You need the latest version of Flash Player to view the H.264 encoded video. (an mp4)
