Changing File Extension From F4V To FLV - Any Negative Effects?
Sep 2, 2010
I am uploading videos to my new site (aspirin creative) and the player will not recognize any .f4v videos. I changed the extension on one to .flv and it now appears to recognize and play the video. Also, I didnt build the site myself and the developer not Define terms of video playback (which has been less than great so far) the player seems to be a rather strange resolution (600x340) which is not native 16:9 and wont recognize 4:3 encodes without stretching and warping. I have tried to encode close to this in media encoder but as soon as I select .flv over .f4v in the options my ratios seem to go mad, not keeping the preset and not letting me set to anything that is actually 16:9?!

Is there any way to determine a file type from a url when the file extension is not a reliable indicator? Since there are different APIs for playing video, audio, or displaying images, you need to know the filetype beforehand.

We used Flex to build the web app below. It lets the user build an interactive activity and click "Publish as Flash" to save a SWF file on their local computer.[url]...
Problem:When saving the file, the "Save As Filetype" drop down is empty and end users can accidentally delete the swf file extension in the filename.How can we lock down the extension so it will always have SWF in the extension?
Technique 1? Set "Save As Filetype" to SWF by default.
Technique 2? Click "Publish as Flash". User specifies the filename. File is saved on the server. User presented with prompt to download file. File is downloaded from the server using the traditional browser windows explorer dialog box (the same dialog box if I downloaded a program from cnet's downloads.com)

Is there way to set the extension of a file using Adobe Air's flash.filesystem? Using the browseForOpen function you can set the FileFilter, limiting the files types available. However when using browseForSave you can not set a fileFilter or fileExtension. The file extension has to be entered manually in the SaveFileDialog. The File.extension property associated with the selected file is read-only. Does anyone know of a work around or anything that I could do to not enter the file Extension manually.

when i load an xml file with a .lic extension with .pl in it, eg blahblah.pl.lic it errors on me, as if the file is not there.
However, if i rename the same file to blahblah.com all works fine.
i call the file with
<s:HTTPService id="hsLicAddressCheck" fault="hsLicAddressCheck_FaultHandler(event)" result="hsLicAddressCheck_ResultHandler(event)" />

In flex when I allow user to download a file using :
dwFile = new FileReference();
dwFile.download(downloadURL, dwFileName);
Is there a way to ensure that the downloaded file always ends up with the extension .tar or any other extension for that matter? By default I give it a name like xyz.tar, but as of now the user can tamper with filename, including its extension. Can I prevent him from doing so?

[I posted a similar question on serverfault.com, but had very little feedback so trying here]
I can do this just fine under Apache with htaccess
But at work its all M$ all the time...
I need to lock off access to any .fla files that might come up on a virtual host. We keep them next to the few .swf we use on some of our sites, I just want to be sure they are not being downloaded by people or spiders that may scrape the site.
There isn't really anything sensitive in the fla's but I'd rather keep them in the same folder and have them forbidden to downloaders.
I've tried the MIME type route (check if MIME type is defined under HTTP Headers > MIME Types, remove if it was, etc;), but there is no FLA defined, but I can still download the file by default. I recall this was the opposite if you WANTED to serve .flv files, but not .fla's[code]...

I'm trying to get my flash movie to allow the user to download a file of a specific extension, at the moment i use:
[Code]....
Two problems:
a) If the user changes the file name in the browser before clicking save (and doesn't re-add the .xml extension) then the file is saved without an extension
b) Randomly, tested on two windows xp systems both in IE one included the extension in the filename on the browser download window and one didn't (which doesn't make it clear to the user they have to include the extension as part of the name) but both saved to the correct xml extension file
a) If there is a work around so I can specify the exact file type, in the adobe reference manual it states you can parse in extra parameters to server with the file location to download. How would i do this?
b) If can't do a, how can I get it to always display the extension in the browser download window (unlike in problem b )

I'm wondering what the process would be for importing the filenames of songs minus the .mp3 extension into Flash would be? I want to import the filenames, and then create a for loop that goes through and adds some html tags to each name, and eventually I'll spit out a text file of it all for me to copy and import into a search function on a webpage. I think I can work through the latter, but I was wondering how to originally import the filenames into a swf?

I'm using FlowPlayer to replace an existing FLV player on my site that plays videos from Amazon E3. I have many pages and each should show a different video. For each page, I have a value stored in my CMS that is the "streamName". The stream name corresponds to a flashvars paramenter in the object/embed tags that show the video player:&streamName=my-great-video
On my new player, I'm able to get the video using a URL similar to [URL] How Does Flash (or Amazon???) know to add in the .swf extension? There are several video formats used on the site, and the current player works with them all... But, as I mentioned above, on each page the value store for the video (ex="my-great-video") includes no extension.

I have a mp3 that is retrieved from the server via "somepage.php?id=100". When I load this into spark VideoPlayer it doesn't work. But when I copy that URL and put it into the browser URL I get a dialog that asks if I want to download "sound.mp3".
UPDATE!!!
// in the creation complete handler
var audioElement:AudioElement = new AudioElement();
audioElement.resource = new URLResource(path);
[Code]....
It seems the audio is cued up in order when added to the creation complete meaning that if one audio file is loading another will not start until after the first has completed.

I am converting a .MOV file from After Effects in Flash Video Converter. I have jacked the quality to 2500. Although the audio is still dodgy and the video quality is still low. One of the biggest problems is that the images scale up in AE and when they are converted and played they jitter. Very dodgy and this project needs to be crystal clear.

We are working on a pretty robust "shirt design" application that allows users to create custom t-shirt designs, create vector output automatically and send the files to a printer.
Inside of the application, you can select high resolution artwork in PNG format and add that to your shirt design. We would like to add the functionality to :
1) Change the Hue and Saturation of the PNG in question (probably using the ColorMatrixFilter class, or something along those lines). 2) Be able to change the hue of different parts of the PNG... (I know , this is probably tricky).
For example, if you have a PNG of a Red Convertible with black tires, how would we even go about changing the color of the convertible and the tires seperately?

I have a simple button function that changes the selectedIndex on a view stack without using the menu bar component. I call the function from the click property on the button and pass an int as the index I want to jump to. When I had the code on the application MXML file everything worked fine. After moving my actionscript to a separate file, I get access of undefined property errors:
protected function changeView(index:int):void
{
myViewStack.selectedIndex = index;

I have made an animation that has an external AS file. I want to be able to just edit the AS file and the animation to update. Right now the way I have it set up is in the action script of the fla i have the following:
include "regionMap.as" I am pretty new to Flash so i'm not sure if this is the best way to do this. The way it is now if i edit the AS file and save it..nothing happens unless i go into the fla and publish it again. Is there another way of doing this so that all the user has to do is edit the AS file? I'm sure there is, but I just am not sure how.

How do I get the .as file to recognize the myViewStack component? Do I need to reference Main.MXML somewhere in the .as file? Thanks.
Here is the rest of my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

And finally the .as files with the function in question:
import mx.containers.ViewStack;
protected function changeView(index:int, myViewStack:ViewStack):void
{
myViewStack.selectedIndex = index;
