My problem is this. I want to embed an swf on my site which plays an FLV video. I do not wish to use a skin but want to create a simple roll over or mouse over which would start the video from the beginning. Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea how I would do this.
View 4 RepliesSo I am relatively new to Flash and After Affects but I managed to make a nice video with Adobe After Effects that my friend wanted to put on his site. After I was done rendering it I used Adobe Media Encoder to make the .avi file into a .f4v file for flash. After opening that flash file with Flash i exported it out into a .swf file. When I opened the .swf it played perfectly, just the way it should. I edited my index.html with Dreamweaver and the coding and everything seemed fine. After previewing the index.html with my browser and Dreamweaver's Live View I was quite satisfied with my results. When I uploaded the files onto my site the flash did not play. It plays locally on my PC but not on the site. I later asked a few more experienced buddies what was wrong and they confirmed that they weren't able to play the file locally nor from the site. At first I thought I may have mixed up the links but they were fine. Here is the code I used for my index.html page.

I'm a bit frustrated as I've created a Flash movie with an embedded video.The SWF file works fine when I play it as a stand alone file but when I use the file inside my website, the video portion does not play.I have placed the video file and the Flash file in the correct folder on my site.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash 8 site that plays a music clip throughout the site. I have a flv video on one of my site's pages and would like to know if there is a way to stop the site's music when the user clicks on the "Play" button of the video and to have the site music start again when the video either ends or the user clicks on stop.
View 1 RepliesIm making an animation to describe how a potential iphone app would work. Its going to be a 3 min clip not interactive at all, just plays right through showing how it would work. This is not for web. Just for presentation purposes.
By problem is this: Within the timeline, i need to embed a 20 sec clip (with audio) the plays automatically and when it ends the rest of the animation continues. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this without the audio and video being all messed or the video not exiting the screen once its finished. I hear all this talk of action script but have no clue where to start.
I have an xml driven swf enbeded in xhtml page that plays fine when tested on local machine through dreamweaver CS4 but once uploaded to site, swf won't load. The music plays however so I know it's not about the linking.

I'm porting in an .flv to Flash for the first time. I created the .flv from an .MP4 using Media Encoder CS5, and then opened a new Actionscript 3 .fla in Flash Professional CS5, clicked File > Import > Import Video. Then selected 'Load external video with playback component'. Everything seems to have imported fine, but when I publish the SWF and import it via Dreamweaver CS5 and preview the page, the video is there, but the controls are not. There's just a white box where the controls should be. Also, the video is out of sync with the audio, which I believe is a problem with Media Encoder, not Flash.
Here are some links:

I have a website [URL] when I go there if I click the video archives button then play a video then click on the home or photos button or one of the alternate background buttons on the left the video goes away as it should but not always the audio (especially when I click while the video is still buffering). Is there a command I can use to kill the sound from the flvPlayback component and nothing else(I have a mp3 player there also I so I don't want to use the SoundMatrix class. btw the videos are all played on an instance of the flvPlayback component.
View 7 RepliesIn my CS4 flash document I have created a media gallery. It's a very simple interface that has mouse overs on thumbnail pictures, and then the larger picture will fadeUP in the center of the document. (With use of framelabels in the timeline).
In the same document, I want the user to be able to click on a video thumbnail, and that video plays back in the center of the document. Several questions: If the user clicks on the thumbnail "onrelease," the time line goes to the player, is it possible to stream this video from a youtube clip into my media player on the screen? If not and I have the document in a fl4 format, is there a simple process to have this video open? (I currently do not have the document in fl4 format).
I am currently using to in a sound player in an on the homepage of an html/asp website. At the moment it plays some welcome audio when the visitor arrives on the site (index.asp), however it does get an little annoying when it plays everytime you go onto the homepage.
Is their any way of setting a session variable in actionscript that only plays the audio once when using the site?
My dilemma is that is that I have an image that when you roll over it with the mouse the words 'click to play' appear. Now when I click I want the image to disappear and the movie behind it to start playing.
I've managed to put together some action script through looking at various tutorials and posts. but when I preview my site and click the image nothing seems to happen.
The code I'm using is as follows:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
function doPlayVid(e:MouseEvent):void {
tanmov.play();
this.alpha = 0;
[Code].....
I call a .flv into my movie like this:
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
[code].....
What I'm trying to do is have a still image act as a button on top of a video, so that when it is pressed the image disappears and the video begins. I've placed the image and video on two seperate layers and typed the action script into the images layer.
I get no errors, however when I preview my site the moment I press the image everything on the site disappears yet I can hear the audio of the video playing.
The code I've used is as follows:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
function doPlayVid(e:MouseEvent):void {
tanmov.play();

I'm trying to embed a .flv file in my site. I encoded it from a PAL .avi using FLME CS4 at the preset values for 'FLV - web small', although I've tried a ton of different sizes, framerates, bitrates, and keyframe distances.However I do it, the video plays nice and smooth in any offline player (WMP, Adobe Media Player, VLC, RealPlayer). Then I embed it into the site with Dreamweaver and preview it in IE8, Firefox and Chrome.
Firefox and Chrome play it beautifully, and IE8 is jittery, jerky and stuttery. It's not horrendous, but it looks like it's running at 12-18 fps instead of 25, and it's noticeable, and it doesn't look natural. Once it's embedded in the HTML it plays the same whether I'm previewing it through Dreamweaver with the .flv on my PC, or I'm getting it off the internet (look for yourself at my 'test' video at [URL] make it play as smoothly in IE8 as it does in the other browsers?

View 1 RepliesI encoded an AVI w/ Media Encoder and dropped the FLV into a Flash playback component.In my compiled SWF, the video plays in hyperspeed (like it has a really fast framerate), but the audio plays normally.It seems like an encoding issue, but could it be something in Flash?I'm guessing there's some setting mismatch -- different bitrate, framerate, dimensions?[code]...

this one is really doing my head in and any advice (even vague thoughts) would be really great.I have an FLVPlayback component on the stage and I am loading 8 FLVs in to 8 separate video players within it. I then play the first one and when it ends I randomly select which to play next.Everything seems to work fine except that each time I run it one or two of the clips play back with only audio only and no video. It is not the same clip each time but whichever one it is will consistently fail to playback untill I re publish when it chooses a differrent clip to fail on.I am publishing for FP8 from CS4 on a Mac and it fails when I test movie as well as in FF and Safari.
If anyone has any ideas on this at all please shout them out or I am heading for the forrest never to return
