youtube as3 api closed captioning error - actionscript-3

I am importing youtube video into my flash project but when I click the CC button I get an error image like this one
I have not seen anything in the AS3 youtube api for any special parameters needed to use closed captioning. Also if I copy and paste the url it calls it works fine in a web browser.
any idea what I might be missing ?

This might help you: http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/player_parameters.html#cc_load_policy
cc_load_policy
Values: 1. Default is based on user preference. Setting to 1 will cause closed captions to be shown by default, even if the user has turned captions off.

I was building for flash 9 instead of flash 10

Cast an entire webpage to tv?

I need to cast an entire webpage (which includes images, videos, iframes and carousels) to a chromecast enabled TV.
Once loaded, the webpage is auto scroll enabled and hence keeps showing few images, videos and iframes (think of it like a looped slideshow).
I know there's an option in the chrome browser itself to cast a tab/entire desktop, but it would require my laptop/computer screen to be open all the time.
I also came across chromecast for web app docs: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/chrome_sender/integrate , but as far as I can figure out, it will help only to cast videos but not iframes/carousels embedded in my website.
Any suggestions how to achieve this? The requirement is to show an advertisement kind of data to the TV in every 3 hours. All this cannot be automated fully I guess?
Yes, you can do this. You just need to create a custom receiver app, which is basically just an HTML page that implements the cast receiver framework javascript. https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/caf_receiver/basic

Cast a website to TV from Android app - Chromecast; is it possible?

This is what I want to do.
Have a screen on my Android app with a few buttons on it. One of them would be the Chromecast icon, the other buttons would just be a few numbers most like (a "1" button, a "2" button, a "3" button etc).
When the cast button is hit, a default website is loaded (eg. www.example.com) on the TV. In the Android app, I still just see my buttons.
When a number his hit (ie. "1") the website changes, and www.example.com/parameter/1 is loaded for example.
I have been reading Google's documentation. If I understand correctly, I can create Android sender app code to do part 1 and 2. And a receiver application for part 3.
What I am confused about though is how I just get it to load a preexisting website. Surely I wouldn't need any custom HTML5 code for that? All I want to do is load a URL.
Could someone please advise me if what I want to do is possible, and if so point me in the right direction? Thanks
The default receiver only loads media URLs. Video, images, etc. If you want it to do anything else, like show a website, you need to create a custom receiver.
Luckily, that's rather easy, and they have some good samples on the Github account.

Does the latest Instagram iOS app support caption in URL scheme?

Formerly it was possible in iOS to use the hook instagram://camera?caption=YourCaptionHere (from Mobile Safari, or elsewhere) to have the Instagram app open in camera mode with a pre-filled caption. However, that no longer seems to be the case as my previously working URL (hook) no longer populates a caption (though it does still open Instagram in camera mode).
I'm having trouble finding any current information on this, though the caption query string variable seems to have never been documented in the first place.
Does anyone know if this feature is still available under a different query string variable?
To be more clear, I have a link on a web page that attempts to open Instagram in camera mode with a caption. I have a JavaScript click event that checks after 500ms to see if the page is still open, then alerts the user to download the app if the link didn't work:
Open Instagram
Instagram provides documentation on iOS hooks. That documentation does not make any mention of a caption parameter, except sharing a photo via Obj-C (in which they call it annotation). Given the different naming, you could try instagram://camera?annotation=YourCaptionHere and it might even work, but this doesn't seem to be an officially-supported use case.
Further, to support your second paragraph, searching through the history of the docs on the wayback machine doesn't turn up any mention that caption was ever a supported argument... like you said. Interestingly, one of their co-founders claimed this was available 2 years ago... I guess they never made it official, then removed it?

Windows Phone music player app plays songs from phone library

Im learning windows phone 8 development recently. And started developing music player that plays from phone library. I used MediaLibrary API to get all songs,albums and its working fine now.
What is the problme now is i've assigned MediaPlayer_MediaStateChanged,and MediaPlayer_ActiveSongChanged to mediaplayer object. It triggers when i change the songs that are displayed in longListSelector. That events are not firing when i press next or prev button that i get when I press volume button.
Hope You understood what is the problem.
I tried using backgroundPlayerAgent and got to know that doesn support MediaLibrary.
And I saw this question also. But i saw few apps that are able to listen to those prev/next button events. If you know what am i missing please help?? Is there any other third party libraries available?? I've searched lot in web but i dint get any usefull information. SO posting this question thinking that i might get some information
Go to Settings > Music
Search for Filter audio files
set audio files By Size....
You will get all songs then

I dont want to start the recording until the use clicks the Allow Button is the Security Pop-up question represented here http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help05.html
In Audio I dont get this until I attach the stream to it. In Video can get thsi question when I attach the camera to Video.
I want to avoid making a connection until the user clicks Accept and this doesn't happen until I make the connection request in Audio.
I am able to display the http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help09.html pop-up using SecurityManager
Is there a way I can call the pop-up from my code. http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help05.html
The very last point in the last link you posted answers your question.
How can I display this question again?
You can't. Flash Player displays this
question automatically when necessary.
Sorry bout that!
