Flash player h.264 detection script

Does what it says on the label, Adobe has introduced h.264 codec inside Flash Player 9 Update 3 (v 9.0.115.0) this script detects if you have below that version installed/or flsh player 10 in that case wont matter (i hope, haha).

below is a sample code, in flash:

//Flash player h.264 detection script// //Flash Player 9 Update 3 (v 9.0.115.0)//res.text += ‘///// h.264 detection script ///// \n\n’;

//dissection
fpv = System.capabilities.version.split(” “);
fpvArray = fpv[1].split(“,”);
fpvCurrent = Number(fpvArray[0]+”.”+fpvArray[1]);
fpvBuild = Number(fpvArray[2]);

//results
trace(‘flash player settings\n — \nfpv full version = ‘+fpv+’\nfpv current = ‘+fpvCurrent+’\nfpv build = ‘+fpvBuild+’ \n\n’);
res.text += ‘flash player settings\n — \nfpv full version = ‘+fpv+’\nfpv current = ‘+fpvCurrent+’\nfpv build = ‘+fpvBuild+’ \n\n’;

function fpvXcheck(){
res.text += ‘run detection\n — \n’;
trace(‘run detection\n—’);
//fpvX version check?
fpvX = 10;
//
if (fpvCurrent>=fpvX) {
trace(‘flash player(‘+fpvX+’) detected h.264 supported.’);
res.text += ‘flash player(‘+fpvX+’) detected h.264 supported.’;
} else {
trace(‘flash playerX not installed, run flash9 check?’);
res.text += ‘flash playerX not installed, run flash9 check?’;
checkCurrent();
}
}
fpvXcheck();

function checkCurrent() {
//checkCurrent
if (fpvCurrent == “9″) {
trace(‘\nfpv current(‘+fpvCurrent+’) = installed’);
res.text += ‘\nfpv current(‘+fpvCurrent+’) = installed’;
checkBuild();
} else {
trace(‘\nfpv current(‘+fpvCurrent+’) = incorrect, please update flash player v(9.0.115.0) or higher. \n’);
res.text += ‘\nfpv current(‘+fpvCurrent+’) = incorrect, please update flash player v(9.0.115.0) or higher. \n’;
}
}

function checkBuild() {
//checkBuild
if (fpvBuild>=115) {
trace(‘\nfpv build(‘+fpvBuild+’) = correct \n\n*successful! flash player supports h.264′);
res.text += ‘\nfpv build(‘+fpvBuild+’) = correct \n\n*successful! flash player supports h.264′;
} else {
trace(‘\nfpv build(‘+fpvBuild+’) = incorrect version, please update flash player v(9.0.115.0) or higher. \n\n*sorry! flash player doesnt support h.264′);
res.text += ‘\nfpv build(‘+fpvBuild+’) = incorrect version, please update flash player v(9.0.115.0) or higher. \n\n*sorry! flash player doesnt support h.264′;
}
}
