Web Development :: Embedding Video Content Via CMS - Format?
Apr 12, 2010
if I set up the facility for people to embed video content on their site via their CMS (using TinyMCE editor), is there any reliable cross platform video format that should be used? From what I can find online, the only reliable way to embed and stream video is using FLV. Other formats seem to have caveats, e.g codecs required or quicktime updates required. Ideally I'd like to avoid this type of situation. If it is the case that FLV is the preferred option, then that involves asking people to encode their video content to FLV before uploading, so there is an extra step required here (unless I can set up the encoding in the back end, but this might take a while to process depending on the size of the video).

I want to have a web site which switches the web camera of users, makes a video recording and send results to my web server.Is it possible to do that? I think it should be. For example such sites as chatroulette.com starts web camera. Should it be done with the Adobe Flash technologies? Is it hard to do that?

I have a big problem with my firefox plugin: I have a button, which opens a new window for me, where I want to include that .swf file.
Here is the XUL code for the embedding:
<html:embed src="Reader.swf"
width="250"
height="250"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
-> html namespace was set above:
xmlns:html="[URL]"
Reader.swf is in the same directory as the xul file
Without the html:embed, the window opens without problems, but as soon as I change that, firefox crashes without warning or something, it just disappears from the process bar. The .swf file works properly when I open it from my operating system (its windows 7 64 bit) and is coded in as3.

Perhaps this is a really basic question,

Is there any library in Action Script that be able to convert any video format to .FLV?
I've been looking for it with no success. I thought that as3 had functions for that purposes but not found.
I want to give the possibility that in my site, users can upload any video, so I need to convert it to a standard and compress it to a fixed resolution.

I am having trouble embedding a font as bold using FB4. I am using TextLayout fields and TextLayoutFormat to do this and my code is as follows:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.AntiAliasType;
import flash.text.Font;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code] .....
The font just displays as normal and the 'fontWeight' property is ignored.

I just finished creating/testing and uploading a flash file to my media server. However because I wanted it to stay a constant size and centred on peoples screens I embedded the flash file into an html page using dreamweaver. Everything still worked fine except for one function. My contact movie clip (mail_mc) had a getURL function ("mailto:etcetc");

I'm working on implementing a fallback mechanism for the HTML5 video player. I've got a way to replace it with the swfobject Flash player, but how should I detect if any issues have developed?
In other words, if we use the following list of error events that can be thrown, which one should trigger the Flash player replacement? Or should we simply do a replacement if any error is thrown?
Also, where should the onError handler be called? I'm thinking on the video tag, but want to make sure.

Does anybody use bare .SWF files as webpages? I know it's possible; it seems to work fine for me. Why would I embed a SWF inside an HTML page if it's just going to be full screen (I mean the size of the browser's normal viewable page area, not COMPLETELY fullscreen)?
Is there a lack of browser support? Or is this functionality determined by the browser's Flash plugin?

If I load a web page full of other files, e.g. images, my browser doesn't load them all at once.I seem to remember reading that IE will only have at most 3 requests open at a time for a page. The rest will be queued.If I have a flash movie on the page which is continually making image requests, how does this affect the maximum number of downloading files in the browser?
Is this browser limit accurate, and is it generally the same across browsers? Does flash share the requests of the browser? If not, does flash have a limit and what is that limit?
For some background, I do have a flash movie that is continually loading files so there is a queue of Loaders waiting to make requests.My idea was that if there was a different request that I needed to be executed straight away I could make it jump the queue by making a javascript call and allowing the browser to make the request instead.

Hey there. I'm very new to Flash CS3. I understand the basic concept of the timeline. I'm not a programmer and I just want to create a FLASH movie that has video with audio and some text animation that I can add to my website. I have successfully created some very simple flash movies without video. My problem is that when I embed an AVI file the audio quality degrades so much that it's unusable. The full length of the viedo is about 9 minutes. It was professionally shot in studio and when I play the AVI file it is fine. I tried chunking up the video into 3 minute segments but that still didn't fix the audio quality. I then separated the audio from the video in Pinnacle Studio and then embedded the video into the timeline and added the audio, and now I can't sync up the audio with the video.

I am trying to insert a flash video into an html page using dreamweaver 8. The problem is that my .flv file is on a shared network drive (We will call this Drive V). The other files (.html and 2 .swf files created by dreamweaver) are on our intranet server (which in on a different network drive, which we will call Drive I). We don't want to put the .flv file on our intranet server (Drive I) because it would create bandwith problems. When I do it this way I can't see the video. Is there another way of doing this other than using dreamweaver?

On button clicks , I have used movie clip with top registration as base container [ gpageContainer_mc] and i have added and deleted pages to it using similar code for all buttons .
These pages are also movie clips with top left registration[gpage4].
press_review -> is the sub menu button
var gp1:gpage1=new gpage1;
menu_cont.media_menu.press_review.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,me diaclik3);function mediaclik3(event:MouseEvent ):void { menu_cont.gpageContainer_mc.removeChildAt(1); menu_cont.gpageContainer_mc.addChild(gp1);}
This works perfectly fine for all page navigations .But, the audio persists when I navigate from a page which has video embedded in it .I am able to see the new page but still I hear the audio in the background .I have used file -> import video option to embed video on my page . I didnot add any action scripting for playing the video as these had come when I imported video file and choosing skin for it .

I have created a SWF file using Flash that loads an FLV file on my local development machine.When publishing the SWF file and generating the appropriate HTML, I can successfully load the video by opening the generated HTML page that Flash creates.However, when placing the generated HTML code in my View,the Flash is loading, but the video is not playing.I think it's a reference error to the location of the FLV file, but I've tried every combination I can think of.I placed the SWF and FLV in the corresponding View folder where I want the video to load, but to no avail.

I have the problem that a video I imported in Flash is visible on my pc but not on any other. I converted the video into the flv format and dragged it onto the scene. So far so good. I created a folder which includes the main swf as well as the video in the flv format. Since this is a University project, I sent this folder to a professor and he could not see the video. I've tried it on any other pc - wouldn't work either.

I am doing a little project for a lady's website free of charge. She owns a non-profit business. She wants to organize some of her videos. I am not even sure what format the videos are in right now. I have been doing a little research and it looks like I want the .flv format. How can we get them into this format? I want to use thumbnails with a little description of the video, people would click on the jpeg (or whatever) thumbnail to see the video.

I have been trying to embed a video from youtube into an SWF file. I have been looking at the various posts here and I found this actionscript code:
System.security.allowDomain("YOUTUBE DOMAIN would go here");
System.security.loadPolicyFile("YOUTUBEDOMAIN would go here/crossdomain.xml");
this.createEmptyMovieClip("video_mc", 10000);
this.video_mc.loadMovie
("I had to remove this link so I could post it normally would have the youtube link to the video file");
I created a movie instance on my stage and called it video_mc and pasted the code into a frame.
When I press ctrl and enter to test the flash document I get my page as expected and the youtube video appears,however I get the following message:
'*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
Connection to null halted - not permitted 'I had to remove this link so I could post this on this forum -my post count is less than 50- normally would have the youtube link to the video file
-- Remote SWFs may not access local files.'
