Im using the video player to play both locally hosted FLV files as well as some YouTube videos, the player works 100% fine for the local FLV's but when streaming YouTube videos, the volume control does not appear to work?
This is all working fine for me. Could you check two items?
1) Rightclick the player, choose “settings” and then set the “local storage” to 0. Youtube used to save a cookie that overrode the volume in their API.
2) Test the volume in the latest version of the player; the ‘Youtube featured videos’ section here:
When trying the test page yes it does in fact work. One of the things that I think is the problem is how we were trying to recompile the player with a different look instead of using a skin. I tested with a skin and everything works fine.
I experience this problem with a standard local FLV (relative URL, though). After setting local storage to 0, the volume works, but a popup shows each time you change it to ask if you want to store the value... Pretty uncomfortable.
I tried everything, from muting to setting a hardcoded value, omit it... Nothing worked.
Right now my volume isnt working my speakers are working my volumes the right volume and event the video volumes right but why a I not getting any sound from any of the You Tube Videos????
I have the very same problem. Audio files are working perfectly fine. Output from speakers is perfect. But youtube, and other flv/mp4 sites have no volume. No sound comes out of any of these players. Can omeone please help?

I have had a similar problem.. the volume is turned up, the speakers are working and everything is plugged in.. but the things is. the sound doesnt work on my internet.. it works for everything else from testing the speakers to my iTunes.. and I dont know how to fix it :( It was working earlier this morning and just stopped..
hey had the same problem for 2 weeks! here's the solution from Youtube and it WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ENJOY THE MUSIC AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) http://help.youtube.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=58132
the volume control has a small red X next to the speaker icon that is also red. it usually does that when there is copyrighted material in the videos, but it does that to all the video i try to go one. I have already restarted my laptop, but that didn't work. Help?
Using Player-viral Internet Explorer Version 6 Snel v1.0 skin
Found that the volume bar would not work playing a Youtube clip. It would remain on the initial volume it was when the page was opened.
I did a test where I would mute the sound then refresh the page, and the sound would still be muted, but not un-mute. Basically it would stay on the sound level it opened with.
Non youtube clips work fine and Firefox works fine. Hav not tested higher version of IE (if anyone can test please).
So I have issolated it to IEv6 and YouTube clips only....
Is it just a matter of putting in a backward compatibility script or line in the commands... ?????
The home page of longvideo works fine, love those girls, and I just noticed there is a new version of 4.5, so I am going to test the new version and try no skin or different skins and see if I can isoloate the problem.
I have uploaded v4.5 latest, I have changed the skins and the volume still does not adjust when using IE (any version)
I even went back to the wizard that longtail provide and chose the "flv with a youtube video" option and that doesn't work either. So if the example don't work on the longtail site then I have not answers.
Note that this is only a problem with IE and Youtube videos....
Should this be looked at by the programmers, as your own example doesn't work....
Here is my code that I use:
<!-- Template file for Flash Movies --> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mysite.com/swfobject.js"></script>
<div align=center id="player1"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"><font size=5>DOWNLOAD PLAYER HERE</font></a> <br><font color="red" size=3>If you can read this then you need to download the FLASH player <br>to watch the movie</font>.<br> TRY REFRESHING YOUR PAGE FIRST</div> <script type="text/javascript"> var s1 = new SWFObject("http://mysite.com/player-viral.swf","single","425","355","7"); s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true"); s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always'); s1.addParam('wmode','opaque'); s1.addParam('flashvars','file={media_src}&skin=http://mysite.com/snel.swf&image=http://mysite.com/jwplayer_press_play.png&link=http://somesite.com&displayclick=link&screencolor=1C1C1C&stretching=exactfit&icons=true&plugins=viral-1&viral.callout=mouse&viral.onpause=false&viral.functions=all&author=mysite.com&description=Whatever&title={image_name}'); s1.write("player1"); </script>
I have searched the entire site looking for an answer and considering this is quite a major flaw in the player, considering 90% of content out there is from youtube, I see no option but to uninstall.
Ugh I can't use youtube. & the answers given on this site are not working for me. I don't know what the problem is. But i love youtube & can't use it now ]: Help pleasee!
After saving the file, go to START > RUN > and type 'regedit' and then click OK In the registry, select FILE > IMPORT and select the "missing.reg" file from your desktop You should get a confirmation that it was imported successfully.
This is an instant fix ... your speakers should now work for web sounds, then you may need to restart you computer.
