Change source with javascript?

Change source with javascript?

Hi.
Is there anyway I can have the web player playing a file defined by a javascript function?


Bump

Anyone know how to do this?

Webmasters SDK

Did you check out any of the examples in the Webmaster SDK?

http://download.divx.com/player/DivXWebPlayer_WebmasterSDK.zip

I've scoured through the SDK

I've scoured through the SDK now and all I've gained is a sore head, I've tried everything I can think of.
The reason I want this is so I can have a structure like
me.com/watch#file.avi

I can get the file .avi using the js function:
document.getElementById('comments').value = String(location.hash).substring(1);

But I can't use that as a source file because DivX doesn't run on javascript

DivxPlayer + Javascript

Hi,

If you want to play with the divx player and javascript, create
the object / embed with all parameters you need through javascript and insert into the Dom.

Something like :

HTML : Create a target div :

<div id='target'></div>

JAVASCRIPT : Create the player / DOM insertion

var video_filename='myvideo.avi';
var string=[];
string.push('<object id=\'divxobj_ie\' classid=.....');
string.push('<param name=\'src\' value=\' '+video_filename+' \' />');
string.push('<param ....');
string.push('<embed id=\'divxobj_np\' ...');
string.push('</embed></object>');
document.getElementById('target').innerHTML = string.join('');

Integrate all params / callbacks you want ( check the SDK for more informations ).

Hope this help,

Regards,

Jeff
