Coverflow HD Video Player

May 8, 2008

So everyone loves the coverflow and people love HD and I love video. Put them all together and you got a HD Video Player with a Coverflow that reads from an XML. I know its soo pretty.

View Demo

You just want to find a use for it somewhere. You will need MC Tween for this piece of code to work.
You can make it autoplay the videos from the playlist by simply setting the variable “autoPlayVideo” to true.

If you have any questions just leave a comment in this post and someone will probably help you.

    Hi, great work!

    you have these variables in the main.as:

    could you please explain what they are and how they change?
    private var planeAngle:Number=50; //70
    private var planeSeparation:Number=380; //200
    private var planeOffset:Number=120; //60
    private var planeZOffset:Number=120; //60
    private var selectPlaneZ:Number=-360; //-180
    private var planeZSeparation:Number=60; //10

    I tried to figure it out, by changing them but I do not get it.
    Do you know?
    Thanks.

    I can't seem to play any of my movies. I am using the right format but maybe I am declairing wrong.

    Right now I've declaired my videoclips in "videoPathinfo.xml and the videofiles are directed in the same folder.. Is this right?

    Thank You! / Marcus

    Hello!

    What format does the videos have to be in? It's not working for me with a .flv -file. Is it supposed to be in .mov?

    / Marcus
  • .FLV or .MP4 are standards.

    Look at the Flash player interface used at dailyfilm.tv: Play any video, and notice what happens if you "scrub" the video ahead or back. It is somewhat like the Coverflow HD Video Player effect, except that it's displayed over the video. It's a very convenient and intuitive way to navigate through a video that you may want to review parts of, and saves space by not using a separate area for the coverflow image display.

    Twice, I have emailed dailyfilm to ask how this is done, but I never get a response.

    Is there a way to get this effect and behavior from Coverflow HD Video Player?
