Professional :: F4V Not Rendering Video?

Jul 20, 2011

I'm trying to create a video background for a game using the FLVPlayback component. I need to smoothly trasisition between multiple videos so I make a FLVPlayer for each one so that I can just tween the alpha when I need to show it. When I start the game I load everything and store the Playback components in a Vector, I think add them to the stage like this
 
for(var i:int = m_Videos.length-1; i > 0; --i)
{
addChildAt(m_Videos[i], 0);
}

Once the game is loaded though the first video dosnt render at all, so I have a see thoough background. But once I transition to a video that is on top of it, the top video renders.

Video - SWF Reading/rendering (outside Of Flash Player)?

Dec 9, 2009

I would like to use SWF files as source video data within a tool chain I am developing. The problem is, I can't seem to find a consistent way to convert them, and I'm concerned about the loss of quality that the conversion will introduce.

I actually even have Flash CS3, but the export process to anything other than swf is flaky at best. It does different things depending on what video format you export to, and doesn't seem to be consistent across Flash (fla) files.

The options I have come up with are:

1) integrate someone else's source code to parse/play back the swf files, and capture the output directly that way.

2) create some kind of frankenstein work flow using Air or Flex to play the swf and export each frame to an image format, and then read those into the application where I want the data.

Integrating someone else's code seems pretty gross to me. The code available that I can find is at least 2 Flash versions old, so I'd have to do a fair amount of work for this. And when Adobe releases the next version of Flash, I'll have to add support for the new features in myself anyways. Were I to write a player myself from scratch, using the SWF specifications Adobe has published (assuming everything is actually documented enough), I run into the same issue: continued maintenance on a regular basis. And for most likely undocumented (or slowly documented) features.

Creating a frankenstein work flow using Air/Flex seems like a smarter approach, but will be really cumbersome and most likely slow.

Has Adobe released source code for their player somewhere, or better yet, a (C++) library that I could use?

Actionscript 3 :: Flex - Rendering HTML <object> In Embeds A Video Of Any Format

Jul 27, 2011

Here is where I am at this juncture... I have a requirement wherein I need to render an HTML text containing an '' tag which embeds a video, for example:-

[Code]....

Now I need to render this video into my Flex Web Application. One way to do it, as I see, is somehow extract the 'data' attribute and put it as a 'source' for spark VideoPlayer. Is there any better way to do this? Also note that, I require to render all video formats (avi, mov, wmv etc.) and not just flv or f4v.

Professional :: Swf In A Webapp Not Rendering?

Jan 6, 2010

I used FalshDevelop to compile PanoSalado opensource ".as" files to produce corresponding ".swf" files.it works great and my movie shows.However, when I run it via a webapp under Tomcat, it just sits there. The url is:Note that I'm running the same file (.swf) from the same place in the filesystem.And I even tried to embed the swf in an html page (actually a jsp page) to see if it would work.. but no dice... same issue.FWIW the html that is used to invoke the swf is :

<div id="flashbanner">this will be replaced by the SWF.</div>
<script type="text/javascript"> alert('0'); var so = new SWFObject('maps/ModuleLoader.swf','mpl','555','416','9', '#336699');  alert('1');

Professional :: Poor Text Rendering In IE9?

Jun 30, 2011

I recently upgraded my IE from 8 to 9 and immediatly saw problems with text. No problems in loading, or giving errors, etc. Just quality of some text. 
With IE9, in many of my flash (cs4) applications, text that had been quite sharp is now blurry and hard to read. Some text is fine, other poor, and I cannot seem to see what is common to the places where text is poor. If I shift to IE8 compatability, all is fine there. Back to IE9, the problem. 

If in IE9 I check in Internet Options/advanced to "use software rendering not GPU rendering", my IE9 flash stuff looks fine. That solves in my end, but obviously no help for publishing on the web. (This was a recomendation somewhere.) have apps that looked fine, only to have parts of them almost unreadable when viewed in IE9. All fine in Opera, firefox, safari, IE 8/7. Has always been somewhat a problem in chrome, but have seen where that is a documented problem.

Professional :: Text Rendering In Flash Authoring Tool And In Flash Player?

Apr 15, 2010

i have found that:

2. There also has a subtle difference between when it is being rendered in flash player and in flash authoring tool.(Note that the key factor here is setting the text field to use device font.)

Flash :: Professional - Video Rotation - Image Becomes Very Pixelated And The Edges Of The Video Become Jagged

Dec 10, 2010

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.

Professional :: Video Plays In .SWF But Flash Template Video Controls Don't Show Up

Sep 9, 2010

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:

Flash :: Professional - Maximum Video Size To Keep The Video Running Correct?

Mar 28, 2011

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..?

Professional :: Position Flash Video Player At Bottom Of Video ?

Mar 6, 2010

With the Flash Player that comes with CS3 and on my PC XP Pro laptop.I want the player controls to appear at the _bottom_ of the video not on top of the video and not under (behind) the video.

- my video is 640 x 480
- so I modified the "properties" tab at the bottom of the screen to 640x480... (it was 550x400)
- but that just makes everything larger when I click File > Publish
- and then look at the video in Internet Explorer... the Player Controls are still _On Top_ of the video.

I guess I need to learn how to

- Make the stage bigger
- Position the Player controls below the actual video

Sheared Text Rendering?

Dec 9, 2011

I have to animate a bunch of text flags on a timeline, which my artist layed out in Illustrator. I import them from AI and if I am zoomed in they look fine, the verticals of the text are straight up and down. But if I zoom out, the verticals rotate to the slant.

Same goes for when I publish the swf. I have the flags all scaled small on the screen, and the text is all messed up. Then I scale up each flag to focus on it, and somewhere in the scale Flash decides my text is now big enough to look the way I want it. It is erksome. Is there a way I can force it to render straight up and down, without having to break everything and un-editablize my text?
