Flash :: Professional - 10.1 Choppy Video With Intel HD Graphics
Aug 15, 2010
I just got a new laptop that is running Windows 7 (64 bit) and has Intel HD Graphics (driver version 8.15.10.2182) built in to the CPU (Intel p6000). The laptop came with Flash version 10.0.45.2. When I play HD video with this version of Flash on Youtube and on HULU, everything is fine, I can play 480p and 1080p videos at 30fps with no noticible problems (although there are occasional frame drops according to the right click menu option "Show Video Info" on Youtube, but nothing major.) Then the other day, flash told me there was a new version available, so I upgraded to 10.1.82.76.
Running this version, all HD videos on Youtube and HULU are choppy and unwatchable, according to "Show Video Info" on Youtube, I am getting only 8 fps, and the frame drops increment constantly. I unchecked "Enable hardware acceleration" in the Flash settings, but it has no effect. The only other people I can find who are having a similar problem are Mac users who are also using CPUs with Intel HD Graphics and Flash 10.1, I couldn't find anyone else complaining about this issue on Windows 7. Is anyone aware of any issues with Flash 10.1 and Intel HD Graphics on Windows 7? Will there be a future release of 10.1 that fixes this issue? Is there any workaround for this problem other then downgrading to 10.0 (which is what I am running now)?

I have waited FOREVER for a Universal Binary version of Flash to be finally released. Now that I've finally got it, its performance is less than stellar. I'm running it on a 2.16Ghz Intel Core Duo and 2GB RAM, and there is considerable lag when renaming layers, or when dragging the timeline across a simple shape-tween. Not only that, but when I export movies (Apple+Enter), the pop-up window that plays it is EXTREMELY slow, and it's slow regardless of what's going on, even if I'm only animating a circle moving from point A to point B.
What's going on here? I've tried disabling all but the system fonts, closing the help window, and made sure I have no extensions running. Nothing helps. The horizontal scrollbar in the timeline moves from side to side with great fluidity and ease, but dragging the timeline bar is awfully slow. Did Adobe miss something here? I didn't spend $1800 on this Design Suite to be stuck with a piece of software which runs FASTER on my 2.16Ghz AMD-powered PC (which I built over four ears ago). Macs used to be the top-of-the-line in terms of Photoshop + Flash performance when they were on the PowerPC platform. But this whole Intel switch has really taken a hit on Flash.

I'm new to the streaming video world but I do have FMS 3.5 up and running and have encoded some wmv and mp4 videos to flv using adobe encoder CS4. I followed the tutorials and have created the swf files in flash CS4 and the videos are streaming as expected.
The primary issue I am having is the videos tend to be choppy at times. They pause, run slowly, audio pops and just overall; glitchy. Typically at the beginning but some times throughout. The test files at the FMS admin page stream fine without issue from the same server. We have tested the site/streams from multiple providers all at cable modem speed or above.
We are running FMS 3.5 developer version and wish to purchase the full version but I really need to fix this issue to prove it's value.As a bit of background we are running/testing FMS 3.5 from a server with the following specs:Redhat EL 4.6-32 SuperMicro X7DBU Intel Xeon QuadCore DualProc Sata [2Proc] Intel Xeon-Harpertown 5420-Quadcore [2.5GHz] OEM 4GB ECC FB-DIMM DDR2 Mainboard Onboard SATAII Controller (2) Western Digital WD Caviar RE 16 WD2500YS Uplink speed 10 (Mbps) Bandwidth allotment 2000 GB(Virtual Private Rack)

What is best practice for buffering video playback? To prevent choppy playback? Using NetStream etc...

we just set up FMS and basically what's happening is im using the standard run-of-the mill FLVplayback component and I try to run a video (an MP4) file which is streamed through FMS. The video plays, but intermittently chops.
Next test:
Akamai SMIL file with sthe same player plays totally smoothe, no problems.
Next test:
Put new video on FMS server (video chops intermittently) - we then go right next to the server, with literally a 300K second download speed. Still chops.
Next test:
Try different media, same thing.
So essentially the FMS server CANNOT stream any videos properly. Its not a bandwidth issue, and it makes no sense.
I try different video players, tried changing the bufferTime properties, same thing. The FMS server is running at 0% cpu and is a fast machien.
FMS settings I can do to get optimal performance?

This code works fine if the timeline is moving forward through the .flv file. However, the going in reverse produces choppy results. The choppyness seems uniform, as in, it's always choppy and always the same intensity. [code]...

We have installed FMS on our godaddy server to work with and used live video streaming services. We are having problems with the video quality being choppy, slow and pauses continuously during live broadcast and motion. We can't figure what is wrong; video needs to be flawless and in high quality. The godaddy server is running:
Red Hat Fedora Core 7
Intel Core 2 Duo - 2.13 GHzRAM
2 GB RAM
250 GB Total Disk Space
I am facing below mentioned problem regarding video broadcasting with adobe flash media interactive server (Developers version). I am using DVRCAST for recording video from a webcam and broadcasting the same live. Please find video settings below.
width:320
height:240
fps:15
quality:90
bandwidth:150
buffer time:0.01
Our problem is that videos are not playing smoothly in application. The motion is getting paused and interrupted in time of broadcast live. I downloaded and checked the recorded flv files from server and found the recorded file also has same problem. So this problem is appearing in time of streaming the video from client computer to fms server. This problem is not appearing when I am testing the application in my localhost.
My code for live streaming mentioned below:
private function publishCamera():void {
cam = Camera.getCamera();
cam.setMode(cameraSettings.width,cameraSettings.height,cameraSettings .fps);
cam.setQuality(cameraSettings.bandwidth,0);
cam.setQuality(cameraSettings.bandwidth,cameraSettings.quality);

Server conf:
2 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5410 @ 2.33GHz
16Gb RAM
2 Gbit ethernet channel
OS - Linux CentOS 5.5 x86_64
FMS4 Interactive
Live stream parameters:
320Ń…240 qua_=87 bw_=200000 kf_=5 fps_=18
So, after approximately 600 connections to one stream video becomes choppy (periodically freeze, slow motions). CPU-usage at this time is 100-120% (maximum is 800%, 100% per each core), network usage is 500 Mbit/sec.But second live stream(with few connections) at this server looks fine simultaneously with 600 connections at first stream.Experiments with recommendation in "Configuring performance features" documentation chapter(enabling/disabling aggregate messages and configure the size of stream chunks) do not help.

I have an *.flv file on a FMS. When I play it on the client side the video plays just fine, but when I call Stream.play(filename, 0, -1, false) on the server side the video turns out really choppy. I both cases I use NetConnection to connect to an rtmp and NetStream to play the stream, but in one case I connect to a stream and request the server to play my file on that stream.

I have made a application that plays videos that are stored in a assets folder of the air application but when ever I run it on an hp slate the videos are really choppy. Is there a way to preload the video or does it have to do with the processing power? the videos are 1.72mb or smaller. They are flv format and they auto play when that application is started. I am using flash builder.

I'm creating a flash website in AS3 where the user can click a fullscreenbutton which works fine. Im not using the hardware mode because of the black borders it creates and I dont want that. The site is liquid in a sense it conforms to the browsers' size using Event.RESIZE.
The code is for fullscreen simple:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
I'm using TweenLite to make transitions between pages and it works fine
UNTIL
I release fullscreen mode (escape) and go back to the browser. From then on all my transitions are extremely choppy (like 1 - 2 fps) and I can't figure out why. I had video on the pages but even when I completely removed the video from the pages the transitions are still choppy. When I go back to fullscreen the transitions are smooth again.

I noticed this thing that Flash self generated graphic symbols and names it Tween1, Tween2, etc. I am not sure why it happens. Usually it happens when I tween something and then this accompanying graphic symbol appears in the library. Do I really need them, is it a flash mulfunction and I can safely delete them? why they are happening, am I making all the wrong steps in tweening and thus they appear?

Let's say I create an empty movieclip called "Test_mc", then I create an as3 class "Test_mc" like below and then I set the movieclip class to "Test_mc".
public class Test_mc extends MovieClip {
public function Test_mc() {
graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);[code]..
Now I can drag out instances of the Test_mc into the scene and get red circles when I test the movie. The problem however, is that I can't see the circles on the canvas inside the Flash IDE. Is there a way to get these actionscript generated grapics to show up?

We're making a simple input text comparisons vs. some constant floating point numbers (e.g. 4.35). Using Actionscript 2 to Flash 9 export.
Code:
trace(typeof(Number(435/100)))
trace(typeof(Number(435/100)==4.35))
trace((Number(435/100)==4.35))
[code]...
In the order listed above, I get the following trace when I export via Flash CS3 (9.0) on my PPC mac:
number
boolean
true
true
[code]....
The same exact FLA file, unmodified, gives the following trace output on 2 different intel macs (one mac pro, one imac) using Flash CS3 (9.0).
number
boolean
false
false
[code]....
have a clue why this is giving falses for statements such as "(Number(435/100)==4.35))", "(435/100==4.35)" or "(Number(input_txt.text)==4.35000)" but ISN'T giving a false for (Number(input_txt.text)==(435/100)) (NOTE: input_txt.text is an input field which contains the string 4.35) I'm expecting the latter since they're generally intel chipsets too??
Note: once i compile the code on my PPC mac, intel macs that run the SWF (but don't recompile the FLA) do return the correct booleans that match the PPC output.

I have a six minute video loading into my flash project. It is too large to import directly into the timeline. I want to display graphics and text underneath at key points and have considered using a timer to tell the graphics when to become in/visible. I'm sure there is a bettere way of doing it than the code I have below, as the timer will start on frame enter won't it and if the video takes a while to load the timer will be out of sync. I'm guessing I should be preloading the video anyway but not quite sure how to do it.
Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(15000, 1);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, blah);
timer.start();
var timer2:Timer = new Timer(20000, 1);
timer2.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, blah2);

What options are available for recording a graphics intensive SWF as a video format such as MOV, MPEG, or others. I have created an interactive SWF and would like to capture video of it so that I can share it in different formats. I have used some free screen capture software before, but am not sure it is the best choice since maintaining the frame rate is important. Worst case scenario, I could just eliminate user interaction and automate the input...

I'm trying to create a flash video that will incorporate powerpoint-like slides along with video footage. So for instance I will have slide 1 (graphic) - slide 2 (video clip) - slide 3 (text). I have used CS4 before for one of my classes but that was a little while ago, and I feel like I'm starting over again. When I import the first graphic (.png), is there an option to have it resize to fit the stage?

I am currently working on a flash website that has several flv videos on it. Since the website layout has a slight tilt, I have had to transform the videos to slightly tilt as well. The problem that I am having is that when I do this the image becomes very pixelated and the edges of the video become jagged. I have somewhat fixed the edges issue by making a mask around it but i really dont know how to make the resolution better, or what causes it to loose resolution when slightly transformed. The size of the videos is the same as encoded. All I do is tilt them upwards on the right side a bit.

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'm currently working on a website design. The idea is a big chromakeyed interactive video in Flash. The size of the video is 1080 (width) x 1500 (height) pixels.I've exported the video in After Effects with the standard settings for flash (File>Export>Adobe Flash Player(SWF)). Now when I import the video in Flash and preview the file, the video plays in a slower speed and it's not playing smooth at all...Is the video too big? Is there a maximum video-size to keep the video running correct in Flash? Is it something else that causes this problem..?

I'm developing a Flash web site with AS2 that uses a "pan" interface to transition between sections. When the user clicks on any of the sections, the entire web site pans to the location of that section. I've accomplished this by placing all of the content inside of a container movieclip, then tweening the movieclip's _x and _y properties using TweenMax. Everything works great, but the transitions are a little choppy and I'm trying to find any way I can to smooth them out. You can view the site in development here:URL...I know this type of question is hard to answer without looking at the code to ensure I'm minimizing CPU usage wherever possible, but I am using TweenMax as my tweening engine, and from the research I've done it is the least CPU intensive tweening engine available. Additionally, I know this site is pretty graphic intensive, so there is a lot of graphic rendering that is going on as the transition takes place.So, my actual question - is this as smooth as I can expect the animated transitions to be with the amount of graphics I'm using, or is there anything that anyone can think of that I could try to increase the frame rate?
