A xml-content was filtered so there is content of xml-file without brackets:

tags
metatag event=”onCuePoint”
name 33 seconds /name
timestamp 33 /timestamp
type navigation /type
/metatag
/tags

I’m trying to add cue points with FLVTools2 1.0.6 and xml-file:

33 seconds
33
navigation

After executing command:
flvtool2 -AUPt abc.xml input_file.flv output_file.flv

I got errors:
ERROR: undefined method `to_i’ for {:cdata=>”33″}:Hash
ERROR: flvtool2/base.rb:72:in `add’

Is something wrong in my xml-file?

Hi, Brooks. I posted a question earlier about a recorded flv file. I’ve tried the chain command “-UPs” only to get the following results. What can be done? Would you send me a detailed solution? Thanks a lot.

Hi,Brooks
I’ve got some recorded flv clips with wrong timestamp (e.g. starting 358:28:41, ending 10000:00:00). Is it possible to set the starting timestamp to zero (BTW, I don’t know the total duration of the clips)? I’d appreciate it if you could just send me a step-by-step illustration of how to achieve that goal.
Thank you very much!
Leo

Hi, I have a 2.6G flv file and I like to extract the first two minutes chunk. My linux box hung when I issued the following command:
flvtool2 -Co 120000 infile.flv outfile.flv

Is the file size too big for flvtool2? or is it the command incomplete? Thanks.

I tried opening it in RichFLV, and the cuepoint names are indeed empty.

For adding cuepoints to flv, I’m using Flash Video MX Pro. It is very easy to handle. Maybe you can have a try. Here is the link.

How do I change the width and height?

Hi, I tried injecting cuepoints into a FLV, followed every steps of this tutorial, but when my video plays, I get the error:

Error #2044: Unhandled AsyncErrorEvent:. text=Error #2095: flash.net.NetStream was unable to invoke callback onCuePoint. error=TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter definitionName must be non-null.

The problem is with the FLV, because I tested with other FLVs and the cuepoints do trigger without any error… I only get this error when I play this one.

I tried opening it in RichFLV, and the cuepoint names are indeed empty. They should be named “onCuePoint”. When I open other FLVs, they are all named onCuePoint…
