I created a 5 second animation ion Adobe After Effects CS5 - exported to a swf file which is 50mb.I have this inserted on a dreamvweaver cs5 html page. Running locally it is fine, but slow over the internet.Should a 5 sec swf file be this big? - Anything i can do to speed this up on a webpage? - I have asked this on dreamwaever also, as I am using Dreamveaver CS5.
The Flash file that I've attached plays very slow on my other, older computers. It plays fine on mine, but these older computers play other flash files (i.e adobe.com) fine. I want to know if I'm missing something here as to how making this play efficiently. I understand that I am using photographs - rasterized images - but, is it really supposed to take that much power to play it?
View 1 RepliesI created a quiz that has several small video in AS2. It works fine when I preview it, but when I post in on the internet it plays the first video and goes to a black screen. I created the page and clicked to publish it. I then exported the swf by hitting file/export/export movie then saved this and posted it to the internet. This is how I have done it in the past, but now I get a blank screen.

View 6 RepliesI have made a scene with a flv in it. The problem is that when I first run my scene the flv plays slow, then when I have played thru it and starts at the beginning again it plays in the speed I want it to. I would really like it to play in normal speed first time as well.
View 3 RepliesI have a very rudimentary Flash movie that I have created. Link here to a copy of the SWF file on my company's website:The movie appears to work all right in IE, but not in Firefox or Google Chrome.Here are the details:It's a leaderboard ad, and like I said, it's pretty basic. I have a simple motion tween, and then an incredibly looooooong series of nested movie clips that create the effect of a counter (like a rapidly rising jackpot).I'm not really hip with the intricacies of ActionScript, so I couldn't code something more elegant. The "counter" is supposed to represent an increasing amount of money that not using our services might cost a company.
Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and ten thousands use a simple repeating movie clip. hundred thousands use one that is 10x as long, and so on. I had to stop at 1 millions, as the # of frames in between numbers was prohibitively long.i.e. there are 10 frames in between numbers for the hundred thousands place in the movie, 100 frames for millions, and 1,000 frames for millions.but, like I said, I'm a beginner at ActionScript.Thinking the problem might be due to the incredibly long movie clips, I removed the animations from some of the higher numbers from my movie, and this did not appear to affect whether it plays in Firefox or Chrome.
I want my flash file plays one and stops in the end and only plays again if play again button is pressed.How do i do it?
View 1 Replieslets say i want an external FLV flie to play using a component.

Or does the flv have to be imported to stage???
View 1 RepliesI want to distribute an SWF file to be run on computers, not the internet.However, I want to be able to access the internet through a link controlled by a button.This used to work, now I get a security warning telling me I need to change the settings on my computer.For obvious reasons I don't want to make every person who runs the swf file to have to do that!Under Windows I can create an EXE file that does not create the security warning, but on the Mac that won't help.

I have a "loader.swf" after which my "main.swf" loades. I have used a loaderPro v3 (AS2) component. Doing that was easy but then when it starts loading, even before the loading completes the main.swf starts playing in the background. And i have no coding in my actions panel.

View 4 RepliesI have used flash for several sites. I am using CS5. I'am use to publishing Flash files to the server, naming the HTML file as index, I also name my SWF file as index. But When I go to the web and look at my site, the tab syas index. I tried changing the SWF file to the name of the site, but this does not work. I also tried and renamed both files and indexnameofsite.HTML, but this also does not work. I tried looking at the script file (open it in notepad) but its mumbo jumbo to me.

View 7 RepliesWhat I want to do is create a page that many other pages link to. This will be my index page. When it loads, the Flash movies play.But, when they return to this page after leaving it to go somewhere else on my site, I don't want the movies to play again.I thought of just having an HTML page that looks exactly like it and then linking the other pages to it, but, since there are a whole lotta pages that need to link to it, search engines might rank that dummy page more highly making it the landing page and then no one would ever visit the real index page with the animations. What to do? Here's a prototype of the page I'm talking about.
View 2 RepliesI'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 would like to pause the background music as an FLV with audio plays and have the bg music restart (if possible) after the FLV stops.
The website is: iamnvjones.com and the flv movies are on "about me" and contact" page.
The way the site is setup now....when a visitor clicks "music off", it turns off the sound for the background music and FLV movie.
I'm trying to create a simple swf file containing an m4v file along with default player controls. I want to add this to a Web page. I've successfully generated such a file, and using the HTML generated by the publish option, I've gotten it to play on IE, FF, Chrome, and Opera under Windows 7. When I try to open the same Web page from the same location on my Mac, however, I see the player controls with an green animation that indicates loading. The movie itself never loads. I've tried this under Safari, Chrome, and Firefox on Mac, all with the same result. I've also had friends try this on other Macs, with the same result. Is there some difference in how Windows and OS X deal with SWF files that I need to account for?

View 1 RepliesI have a SWF (1.8mb) which I placed onto my HTML page using Dreamweaver, and set to autoplay. When I save the file and open it in Firefox/Safari, the movie plays as expected. But when I uploaded the files to my hosting server, the movie doen't appear (not even a box where it should be - just nothing but blank space where it should be). I've made sure that I uploaded the SWF, the HTML file, the expressInstall.swf, and the swfobject_ modified. js file. I also changed the permissions to allow executable scripts. I don't have a Flash blocker installed.[code]
