Youtube actionscript 3 api

Have anybody used this recently?

There is some weird bug I havent noticed before. If you destroy the player during the video play, all is well. However, if ENDED _STATE fires and then you destroy the player, the sound from the video plays again.

I have isolated the case, so its not part of some big app in case something else is causing the problem.

The only way I am currently able to prevent this is to mute player on end, before destroying it.

I clean the player, and remove it from the stage afterwards, however the audio plays again

if(_player){

    _player.mute();
    _player.stopVideo();

                _player.removeEventListener("onReady", onPlayerReady); 
                _player.removeEventListener("onError", onPlayerError);
                _player.removeEventListener("onStateChange", onPlayerStateChange); 
                _player.removeEventListener("onPlaybackQualityChange", onVideoPlaybackQualityChange);

                _player.destroy();
                _player = null;

            }

You could try SoundMixer.stopAll();

This issue shows that the youtube destroy function just isn’t built correctly.

hmm this is a new problem, wasn’t happening before, but it also now happens with my files although I haven’t touched the code Looks like they made some changes and messed it up…but mute also fixes the issue here.

Exactly, I figured out they changes something because I havent touch my code either.

my guess is, the fucser is still playing in the background so mute won’t solve the problem

Obvioulsy it does play in the background, what have they done, who knows… this reminds me of Vimeo

my guess when they done with 3D Content api on the final update early this month, then things start to get screw as they mess with the sound class or add the stereo mode with the webm …but hey its only my guess

the bug is nothing new, destroy doesn’t always work, player ignores it and keep doing his things.

if (killPlayerLoop == null) {
    killPlayerLoop = Run.every(0.1,killTheDamnPlayers)                
}

....

protected static function killTheDamnPlayers(e:Event = null) {
    if (players) {
        for (var i:uint = 0; i<players.length;i++) {
            if (players[i].getPlayerState() != -1) {
                players[i].stopVideo()
            }
        }
    }
}

No, something else is going on, read my explanation again.

When video comes to an end (STATE_ENDED) and you destroy the player, the sound from the video starts playing again from the beginning.

So you have started the video again, repeated, looped or whatever. Its like the video loops, but you dont see the video, you just hear audio.

I am pretty sure I havent seen this before.

i suspect the bug is in the stopVideo/destroy combo, now it restarts playback once video is ended, while before it wasn’t stopping.

the latter could be avoided by keep calling stopVideo() until status = -1 and only then destroy the player, my guess is the same workaround could work in the above situation.
