Swfdec - Aug 2007 - How to implement seek function with swfdecplayer

Hi

I have already written a flash  player with swfdecplayer. I want to add new
functionnalities like seek function and pause. Can I have a pointer about this.

Best regards

Hi there, cool that there is people that use Swfdec. :)

A pause feature is easy. SwfdecGtkPlayer has the
swfdec_gtk_player_set_playing () function. And for the normal player,
you just don't call swfdec_player_advance() when paused.
However, seeking is not possible. Flash is pretty much the same as a
web page, just with nicer Graphics.And you can't seek in Firefox
either.

Unless you were talking of stopping and seeking a video that you play
back. In that case, you'll have to create a Flash file that provides
this functionality and use it within your player to play the video.
But be careful if you want to make this work in Swfdec: not every
Flash function is impleented yet. But we're working on it.

Cheers,
Benjamin
