Author Old Mediaplayback bug: do you have a workaround?

I got to use Mediaplayback in this project - don't ask.

This is my problem:

Anyone know of a workaround? I don't want it to say 'paused' when it's
actually playing...

Hi Stefan,

If you're referring to the MX2004 version component, I've solved the
same issue in my apps by using both the MediaController and
MediaDisplay components in tandem (instead of MediaPlayback). You can
then control the 'paused' text with a boolean. For example:

var myMedia:MediaDisplay;
myController.playing = true;

Haven't tried it with the MediaPlayback component. Maybe it works there
too?

HTH,

Jim

Ooops. Of course that should say:

var myController:MediaController;
myController.playing = true;

Sent the version below without proof-reading first. Shame on me!

Thanks Jim,
I'll try that. I am actually using it in tandem as you said but so far had
no success.
Also I am using the old component but via Flash8 - I would have thought that
this bug was fixed by now...

No problem, Stefan. The code I sent should work (it's documented in the
mx help as far as I recall) and I just tested it in the Flash 8 IDE.
The 'playing' property of the MediaController is a boolean. When set to
'true' the controller text will say "Streaming" and when set to
'false', the text says 'Paused'.

Best,

Jim
