I am able to publish flash as long as I launch from local computer. Can't get flash to play when I publish on external server hosted by ISP. Is there another method to publish that does NOT require the Ac_RunActiveContent.js?
View 1 RepliesOne server - is streaming server with Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5that host the application with asc files in FMS application directory.Second server - is the IIS web server that host thehtml,aspx,swf etc.. files.So basically i heve swf file on one server that have to connect to live streaming via rtmp on different server with different ip address.I did not find any clear explanation on this crossdomain rmtp issue.ys only HTTP can use crossdomain.xml policy filebut not rmtp.So what policy security procedure need to be done in order to enableswf file hosted on one server to connect and show rmtp live cam broadcasting from another server?

I've noticed an issue while creating one way (A publish B play) stream through RTMFP. When I try to create connection between computers behind the same NAT (same IP) stream playing is not fired at all, but on the other hand the same code works on remote computers (different IPs).This issue arose after releasing final release of Flash Player, in a beta release everything works fine.We checked NAT settings and there are no differences for this cases.
View 3 RepliesI work in the art department of a documentary series and I have a Dell Iinspiron 3200 running Windows 98 (with Flashplayer 9) that I need to use to run animations that I made on a seperate machine running CS5. How should I publish them so that they can be played on the laptop? When I bring the files over, they are recognized as flash applications (the icon is right) but trying to play them results in two errors: "(directory) file expects a newer version of windows. Upgrade your Windows version" and "(directory) a device attached to the system is not functioning" I have tried publishing as version 9, but the fies still won't run, and examining the properties of them reveals a file version of 10.1.
View 1 Repliesi need a webpage (host on my website) that can play the following mp4 file either via silverlight 4 or flash[URL]..i tried various solution like flowplayer and silverlight but none of them work with the URL above. I can play the file fine using Windows media player or VLC.
For silverlight, i always get AG_E_NETWORK_ERROR exception within MediaFailed event. For flash, via flowplayer, IE page is just blank
Can someone tell me what am i missing? i am very frustrated as I have finished encoding, upload, cataloging my videos and now I am stuck at the last step.
I created a swf embedded on a web document and hosted on our local server. I have no problem previewing and playing it on flash player 10 but whenever I attempted to play the same swf in flash player 9 I'm getting a popup security warning. I went ahead and registered it on the Adobe website but still with no success.
View 4 RepliesHave a website with 2 small pieces of flash - they play when I click PLAY in dreamweaver but won't play when I use preview or when I uploaded the actual site.There should be a spider going up and down a web beside the signpost and an image in the picture frame.
The code is:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
[code]......
I have inserted services.flv into [URL]. I am using Dreamweaver CS4, and all dependent files, including the flash video are present:
Untitled-2.html
services.flv
FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
[Code].....
I am able to successfully use the "Live View" function within CS4. I am also able to successfully preview within IE and Firefox. I've put all files in the appropriate location on the remote server. All files are in my /wwwroot/, except the two files that are in the Script folder, which is in my root. My domain host claims flv files are supported, and Adobe technical support eperiences the same behavior as I, they can play locally, but not remotely. Adobe technical support claims the cause of the problem is the remote server.
I published a Flash movie in CS4, which includes the following ActionScript 3.0 code to allow people to click the movie to open a new web page; but it will not play from the web server...however, it plays just fine from my local hard drive in Firefox and IE 7.It is an html file with an embedded .swf and I made sure to copy over the swfObject.js, AC_ActvieX.js, AC_RunActiveContent.js, expressInstall.swf, and swfobject_modified.js files to the correct directories. The address is: [URL] and as you will see, there are no errors...just a blank page. I even tried changing the script from:
<script type="text/javascript"><!--swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");//--></script>
to this script: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script>, but using this script generates a lot of CSS and other errors.
Nothing works. The ActionScript code I used is:
//Link to websiteSite_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,visitSite);
function visitSite(e:MouseEvent):void{ var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://giseldemarco.com/Home/Index.html"); navigateToURL(req,"_parent");}
Here is the external swf loader that is commonly used and which I used
ActionScript Code:
var xpos:Number = 4;
var ypos:Number = 4;
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var presvid:URLRequest = new URLRequest("presentation/presentation.swf");
loader.load(presvid);
loader.x = xpos;
loader.y = ypos;
addChild(loader);
The presentation.swf file plays well when I test the movie, but when I upload it to the internet to say swfcabin.com or deviantart, etc or any site which supports swf, the presentation.swf file doesnt play.
I have an external preloader that loads the game that's hosted on And let's also say that game is amazingly ridiculously popular that it exceeded the monthly bandwidth limit of my free hosting plan on that server and my account gets suspended. Then what will happen when the Loader object calls load (new URLRequesI'm planning to upload a game to a distribution website and they strongly encourage that the games be contained in one single swf. But trying to do a internal preloader is shortening my lifespan.So I plan to maybe have the game swf hosted on multiple servers and if the primary server fails due to heavy traffic or the account got suspended then the player can choose to load from a different server. I'm pretty sure that's possible..
View 2 RepliesI created a website in Flash, published it, and uploaded the swf and html file to the server. When bringing up the website Flash doesn't play automatically. I first must right click and select play. When I was testing my flash site on another server, it worked great and played automatically. Is there something within flash that I need to modify or is this an issue with the server?
View 3 RepliesPreviously, using Flash CS3 Professional, I would import a .M4V file (shared via iMovie) and go through the import wizard/assistant to give it a playback skin and ultimately publish an HTML, SWF, FLV, and the JS/SWF files for playback. Uploading these five files to our servers (or any server) would allow anyone to view these videos by accessing the HTML page.
Now, using Flash CS4, the import process is a bit different and the FLV conversion doesn't occur. Upon publish there is also no .JS file and instead of the .FLV file, there is the original movie file (.M4V). In the library pane, there is a FLVPlayback item. When accessing the HTML file as it resides on my desktop (or anyone's desktop inside the folder with all the other items), the SWF finds and plays the video file without any issues. Comes right up. However, the instant all files are moved (again, in the same folder) onto a server for access via the web, the SWF file can not find the video file.
I have even created a duplicate of the project with encoding the M4V file into an FLV and importing that file into the FLA document; publishing that and uploading to the same exact results.
What step has been added/removed that I am missing to make these files import simply, convert appropriately and publish wholely so they may be viewed as they once were on the web?
Is there a way to load graphics externally when in development but package the graphics into the project's swf when it is published?
View 1 RepliesDoes flash provide an api to deal with remote stream like IP camera does?
View 2 RepliesI want to make sure that only authenticated users are publishing streams to my Adobe Flash Media Server.
Ideally I would like to limit the IPs which are allowed to publish streams to the server.
I read about the Adobe Authentication Plugin, but apparently it is broken since it works only for Adobe Flash Media Live Enconder. It doesn't secure the server for other encoders that publish streams.
i'm trying to load some external images of the web.when i publish preview my swf the image loads.but when i open the swf or html the image doesnt apear.i have tested every thing and found out Code:e.target.contentdoesn't exist in the published version.PS: i have set the local playback security to 'network' my code:
Code:

My clients use Flash Media Live Encoder to publish the audio+video to my server. In some case, I want to allow my clients to publish only Audio and no video but I cannot control it via the FMLE, they can even select the video to publish.
I wanted to know if there is any way in which on the server side, I can allow my client to publish only Audio and no Video?
I have recently taken over a project started by another person who has been let go due to lack of performance and other issues.He has created a FLA file and an .exe file. But I am have been asked to place the movie on to the internet.The FLA file that I have will not let me publish an SWF file to be uploaded to the internet, in fact it will not let me publish anything.I have changed the publish setting but when I go to publish it the SWF file is not created.I just want this file in SWF format and for it to autoplay when the website is loaded.
Extra Information: I have used a exe to swf converter to convert the EXE file that was already made into a SWF file for the internet. This does make an swf file but the file is not editable and will not autoplay once it is uploaded.
Any movie whatsover (i.e. any file in any location on my drive) cannot be published (including test movie via Command-Enter) because I get this error:
"Error creating SWF movie file. Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long."
The file name isn't too long, and I am logged in as an administrator on the machine. All folders I have tried to publish to are unlocked and I have read/write priveliges to them. This is a new install of CS4 and has been updated to the very latest version (and it didn't work before the update, not does it work after). This is NOT to do with my specific permissions. This is a clean install of Flash CS4 Professional on a very new Macbook Pro running OS 10.5.7.
For the record, I just want to say that I think it is totally absurd that Adobe shipped Flash CS5 with the ability to ONLY publish AIR 2.0 apps...which hasn't been publicly released yet. I've been working on an AIR app for several weeks and needed to upgrade from Flash CS3 to CS5 to take advantage of the new Text Layout Framework. Now, my app can't be installed by my customers because I can't publish for a version of AIR they can access!! How this decision got made baffles me. Adobe needs to be on top of their game these days and this blunder makes it that much more difficult to defend the Flash/AIR platform that I love so much. Flame over.
Now, for the workaround I've discovered. To get Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file, I first published an AIR 2.0 app. Then I went into the app descriptor xml file and changed the version from 2.0 to 1.5 <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5"> Then I deleted the xml nodes in that same file that are specific to AIR 2.0 (<visible>, <fullScreen>, <autoOrients>, <aspectRatio>, <renderMode>). I locked the app descriptor file so it couldn't be changed by the next publish. Then I deleted the previously created .air file and the .swf file. I then republished the app from CS5 and it was able to install under the publically available version of AIR (1.5.3.9130).
i recently purchased a flash template online, to edit for my own site and I can edit it no problem. The problem is, after I publish it. If i want to reopen the program after i closed it to modify it again, all my buttons and text on the template turn into grey boxes around the buttons and the text disappears..
View 1 RepliesHow can I publish a Flash Player 11 swf using Flash Professional CS 5.5? Is this currently supported? If not, when will it be supported?
View 1 RepliesI have used Flash CS4 for a while and I recently purchased CS5.5 so I could develop IPhone Apps. I signed up as a developer and got my certificate and provisioning profile and I am trying to follow tutorials to publish a simple iphone app and get it on my phone but Flash CS5.5 crashes every time during the publish phase. It says publishing 1:20 remaining and usually with about 25 seconds left it freezes up and crashes.
View 2 RepliesI've been using Flash for 10 years and I've never seen this problem with images after publishing. I've also worked with graphics for many years, but I can't seem to figure out what could be causing this problem with Flash compling this image.
The image is RGB, the image displays properly when opened in other applications on my computer, it also displays properly in the Flash library and on the stage. I've imported it as PNG and JPG, but neither of them work. The other graphics in my fla file look fine. When I publish/compile the Flash file, all the colors are messed up - you can barely make out the graphic, it looks all digitzed and pixelated, with major color distortions. I've tried adjusting the publish jpg quality, but that doesn't help. I'm convinced this is a bug in Flash, since I have the same problem when I publish on the laptop and on my desktop, but I'm not sure.
Yes correct I'm talking about Flash Player 11, thats what it says in Flash CS5 software. Whatever I do in Publish Setting, Flash software always returns option to be Flash Player 11, I don't get this. I choose Flash Player 8 and AS 2.0 and re-open Publish Settings it is again back on Flash Player 11 and AS 3.0.

this is the first time i encounter this problem.. I had the problem where a file would not open correctly which was also addressed at this forum. But this one is different. this file was created (from what i remember) in Flash 8, then opened/saved in all possible flash versions for updates in time. While it will open just fine, it will not publish. The publish window with the percentage will open up for a split second, then it will close with no messages whatsoever, no actionscript errors, nothing. F12, the same thing again. No possible settings could solve this.
I am willing to send the file for testing of course, have tried to publish using Flash cs4 and Flash cs5. I thought of going back to Flash 8 by opening the file and saving to a previous version but as soon as i open the file in Flash cs3 (while the file has been saved as cs3) it will not open the file with an error message that i cannot remember right now.

I have Flash MX and Quicktime 7. All I want to do is publish my movie as quicktime. But when I do I get the error message, "The installed version of QuickTime does not have a handler for this type of Macromedia Flash movie". So... after a little digging I found out its a issue with flash 6, and changed the flash version to 5! But It still wont work! What on earth am i doing wrong?
