kreativeKING - Interactive Developer

I finally released the kreativeKING Videoplayer API. I’m sure you all remember the old VideoViewer and ProgressionBar classes. Well this new set of API does away with those and replaces with a plethora of new classes to make your video player creating processes much easier. Spend more time on design than on programming. Some of the 10+ classes released are VideoWindow ( Replacement of the VideoViewer Class ), VideoPanel ( ProgressionBar replacement) and the VideoControl Classes. These are the main 3 classes that you will be using to the video players logic. I will post later on a short tutorial on creating a video player using the API.



The new API allows you to load movies via flashVars or XML. Playlist support through the XML method. Keep the amount of code to a minimum of about 10 lines and your code is done. I have posted documentation online of the API for reference here. This version of the documentation will have some small changes coming in the next day or two as the API has been updated since I uploaded the documentation. But the gist of it is correct.

To get your hands on the API, you have to purchase one of my video player products from FlashDen. I know alot of people probably are ready to go to a different page after reading that, but I think its fair for the amount of time I put into creating it. Also it’s cheap, only $15. But since I’m a nice guy, I will be releasing a LITE version for free for other to play around with in the next coming weeks, even days actually. SO be on the lookout for that. I will be posting it up here once it’s completed.

Here is a small sample of what the code looks like for a completed video player

var vControl:VideoControl = new VideoControl();
var panel:VideoPanel = new VideoPanel(movie, cBar.progress);
var assets:Array = [movie, panel, cBar.playB, cBar.muteB];

movie.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, setupMovie);

vControl.setupAssets(assets);
vControl.useXML();

function setupMovie(e:Event):void
{
	vControl.setup();
}
