Project Detail

Description

We are looking to have essentially three players. One for videos, one for audio and one for images. They are basically will be very similar in features, etc, just will handle different files.

Flash Video Player:
- http://www.anothertakestudios.com/portfolio/motion.php?cat=b&menu=sub4
- Fixes To Current
- no NaN:NaN when loading. Just have 00:00
- Fix line under loading/playing bar.
- Better Mute button
- Data in XML or Database
- Order, Client, Title, Filename, Category, # of Plays
- Play external FLV files
- Drop down of Videos (Show 4 and then have scroll bar if more)
- Play next video after previous video finished
- Ability to set to random, one after the other, or by category
- Ability to find out what song is being played at current time in PHP (Call from flash on song change to PHP page?)
- Dynamic Skin - Read in external images to change look, rather than having to change it every time in flash
- Keep track of # of times song has been played in database.
- Need player to read what size (320x240 for example) the video is and resize accordingly
- Need player to have a full screen button like youtube.com

Flash Music Player:
- http://www.anothertakestudios.com/portfolio/motion.php?cat=b&menu=sub4 - Similar To Bottom Of Video Player

We will supply the PSD of the overall look. A sample is attached. This is to be what to base it around, but remember that we are asking for it to be dynamic, so we can change anything with the overall look.

Other features/clarification:
- Current playing text to be scrolling (due to fact that descriptions may be longer than space required
- Would like the ability to add a logo in as a watermark.
- Need to be able to send in variables to flash. For example, call a certain image, video or song OR call all songs under certain category, etc
- The overall look is based on an external xml file or database, where we can change the color, images, fonts, font sizes, etc.
- There are activate/deactivate drop down menu, play/pause, mute/unmute, full screen/exit full screen buttons

Also:

- Make sure song, video, image that is loaded, should automatically start playing
- Would like to be able to add a song/loop to the image player to play while it is open
- If the player is muted and goes to the next song, make sure the player is still muted

You DO NOT need to do any of the PHP, MySQL, etc code. We will do that all. The only thing we require is the Flash/XML stuff to be done by you. We don't want to have to touch flash at all.
