Closevideo(); what does that mean ?

Hi !
In the documentation, I can read :

Quote

closevideo();
stops and closes the video stream

Does that mean that the video is stopped and closed when finished ?

My "problem" :
I've got a screen and various videos to play on it (zorder=4). Each video starts when pushing on a button. The same video can be played several times.
At the beginning, there's a logo on my screen (zorder=3). I just want the video to disappear after its end, making the logo visible (again).

I was thinking "closevideo" was the good command, but it doesn't seems to work/ I don't know how make it work ...

My code :

Code

<hotspot name="POI06" url="%SWFPATH%/images/logoWS.png" zorder="4" visible="true"  handcursor="true" scale="1" zoom="true" 
         alpha="1." 
         effect="dropshadow(3,45,0x000000,2,0.6);"
         ath="-151.2592" atv="53.4951" 
         onhover="showtext(Fort à la Reine);" 
         onclick="action(showvideo,videoteaser06);"
         />


<plugin name="videoteaser06"
         url="%SWFPATH%/plugins/videoplayer.swf"
         videourl="%SWFPATH%/video/StMC03P06e.MP4"
         zorder="4"
         visible="false"
         keep="false"
         x="0"
         y="18"
         origin="bottomcenter" 
         edge="bottomcenter"
         scale="0.67"
         pausedonstart="true"
         loop="false"
         directionalsound="false"
         range="360"
         volume="1.0"
         />

I tried this way...

Code

<hotspot name="POI06" url="%SWFPATH%/images/logoWS.png" zorder="4" visible="true"  handcursor="true" scale="1" zoom="true" 
         alpha="1." 
         effect="dropshadow(3,45,0x000000,2,0.6);"
         ath="-151.2592" atv="53.4951" 
         onhover="showtext(Fort à la Reine);" 
         onclick="action(showvideo,videoteaser06);"
         onvideocomplete="closevideo();"
/>

or this one :

Code

<plugin name="videoteaser06"
         url="%SWFPATH%/plugins/videoplayer.swf"
         videourl="%SWFPATH%/video/StMC03P06e.MP4"
         zorder="4"
         visible="false"
         keep="false"
         x="0"
         y="18"
         origin="bottomcenter" 
         edge="bottomcenter"
         scale="0.67"
         pausedonstart="true"
         loop="false"
         directionalsound="false"
         range="360"
         volume="1.0"
         onvideocomplete="closevideo();"
/>

But it doesn't work...

Surely a syntax (or command) problem...

Hi Sagedavid,

About closevideo();... In my understanding, it means:

stop the video (the video stays at the point it was stopped)...
closes the video stream... That's means the request to download the video stops, so the download itself stops Using stop(); for example does not stops the downloading...
the video that was closed is not playable any more... To play an other video you have to use the action playvideo(url);

one note: removing the videoplayer plugin/hotspot seems to close the video stream also...

Hope this help...

SAlut.
