Flash SWF file within Swing JFrame

I was wondering whether its possible to open a Flash swf file within a JFrame
I am looking for a solution similar to the usage of Flash Activex control in .NET
thanks in advance
Vikas

I have read the forum link and other such entries in this forum. I have found the following:
1.) JFlash - a java based flash player. https://jflash.dev.java.net/
Could'nt find the app or the official site
2.) a few projects on sourceforge.org :
java flash bridge where you embed the flash inside an Integrated Browser Component
3.) SWT Flash integration.
I do not find any of these solutions satisfactory.except the SWT/Flash integration which I havent tried.
My question is that isnt there an easier and simpler way to :
Embed Flash into Swing app where actionscript and java can communicate.
I am aware of Remoting and web services. But It is a desktop app I am talking about.
Can anyone suggest anything?
thanks in advance..
from a very frustrated programmer....

  • Bringing Flash .swf files into Captivate

    Greetings,
    I use Captivate 2.0. I have been trying to bring a Flash .swf
    file into Captivate with very little success. The flash file is
    clickable (so that users can review case study information as they
    complete Try It simulations). When I bring the Flash .swf file into
    Captivate, it works. However, correction (or failure messages)
    display every time the user clicks the Flash .swf file. Is there
    anything that I can do within Captivate to stop this issue?
    Ideally, I would like the Flash .swf to run on top of the Captivate
    file so that users can view the case study details without having
    to see the failure messages.
    Please let me know if you have any questions about this. I
    hope it makes sense to you.

    Hi Zabcde (or PMW or P?)
    Can I just understand (sorry for being thick) your situation.
    You're trying to get a flash movie into a captivate session that
    the user can work on, see, interact with whilst they're also going
    through a Captivate simulation (try it)? Does that mean that slides
    are advancing for the simulation whilst you're watching the flash
    movie? Or are they watching the Flash movie as a kind of help to
    then go and do the Try It session?
    If it's the first, then I would suggest calling the Flash swf
    and the Captivate swf as seperate instances in flash (using
    loadmovienum or something). If it's the second, you should be able
    to remove the failure captions from that slide so they don't bug
    you.
    Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick though
    Cheers

  • Launching SWF file within the project - Video Avatar and Calculator

    Hi There, I am somewhat new to Captivate so please bear with me. I am using Captivate 6.0 and have basic coding knowledge. I have a question about how to launch SWF files within my project. There are 2 things I am trying to accomplish.
    1. I have a video avatar that I want to use within my project. When a user clicks an icon or button on certain screens I want the appropriate video to launch within the same window. My video is an swf file but it can be another file type if that is better. Is this something that I can accomplish with Captivate 6.0?
    2. I have built a basic flash calculator - also an swf file - that I want the user to be able to launch on certain screens. When the user clicks a calculator button, the calculator would launch for the user to use, then the user would be able to close the calculator and return to the screen they were on.
    Could someone direct me to some resources on how to accomplish this? If there are any widgets that would make this easier that would be great - but if I need to write some code I can try and do this if someone can direct down the right road. I have spent hours looking for information on this topic but can't find any (at least any that I understand)
    Please, and thank you!!!

    Rory,
    Your Video is 720 x 480 @ 1.212 PAR, according to your screen-cap. In Photoshop (PS), go to Image New (Ctrl+N) and choose the NTSC 720 x 480 Widescreen 16:9 PAR 1.2. Once done, choose Image>PAR and Custiom, change 1.2 to 1.212 (this was a change in PrPro, and might not have yet made it into PS yet). Now, Open your full rez image. Ctrl+A (Select All), Ctrl+C (Copy), and then bring focus to your New Image. Hold Shift and Ctrl+V (Paste). This will put your image on a New Layer, Layer 1, in an Image with the correct dimensions and PAR. You can the Ctrl+T (Free Transform) and adjust the size of your Layer 1 image to suit. Holding down Shift while dragging the Handles of the Bounding Box will constrain the Aspect Ratio. Note, you might be cropping some of that image to fit the Aspect Ratio of your New Image. Anything outside of the Image boundries will effectly be cropped off. Note: you are NOT using the Crop Tool here, but letting the New Image Aspect Ratio effectively do the cropping (note no capitalization) for you. When satisfied with the result, you Delete the Background Layer (not necessary, but I do this to clean things up a bit), and Save_As .PSD to the proper folder.
    With Scale to Fit turned OFF, Import_As Footage, this image and drag to the Timeline, making sure that Scale to Fit is OFF. It should be perfect then. Hope that this works for you and gets rid of the problem.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Is there any app to support Flash swf files on iPad?

    Is there any app to support Flash swf files on iPad?
    Thank You

    Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are out of luck if you want to play on-line, but again some of them have app versions in the store.

  • URL, email links in Flash swf files shows up in search engine

    Hi, can you please help? I post this problem a while ago.
    My problem is: I developed a website in Flash 8 on the Mac.
    The Flash swf file is displayed via Dreamweaver doc. When I do a
    search and, when the site is found in Google, all the links used in
    the Flash swf file appears in the snippets below the main title. I
    would like to know where I'm going wrong, and how can I prevent
    Google from displaying the URL and email details.
    Do I need to use a preloaded, or do I need to put the Flash
    swf movie file in a table in Dreamwever.
    Many thanks,
    Blue_Mac

    >I don't know how this is happening then. Search engine
    spiders don't
    >read through compiled files like Flash.
    Thanks, this is reassuring. Although it seems to have done
    just that.
    The following action script is where the details are coming
    from. I've used the name 'whatever" as an example. I don't mind the
    URLs on view as much as I mind my email address because of security
    issues.
    on (release) {
    //Goto Webpage Behavior
    getURL("mailto:[email protected]","_blank");
    //End Behavior
    I'll check my files again to see if I've miss anything out -
    I have done this so many times already.

  • Accessing movie clip from flash swf file

    I have the situation where in flash i created a simple
    animated movie clip with few stop() commands on timeline. Movie
    clip consists of simple animatio played on roll over and on roll
    out which is controlled using actionscript. I loaded movie clip
    into flash using [embed] tag but actionscript code is stripped,
    there is no stop() action so movie clip loops continously. I guess
    that's normal behaviour for embedded flash swf files but i would
    like to know is there a way to still achieve that? Can i load swf
    some other way with its actionscript and then control movie clip
    from flex?

    You need the FLA's to open in Flash.
    You could download the free trial of a flash decompiler
    (www.sothink.com). The free trial won't give you actionscript, but
    it will give you all of the art in the swf.

    Alas I don't see that option — having said that I looked at mime types and legacy encoders and nada, but oddly when I went to check the QT version (7.6 by the way) in the "About Quicktime" (accessed via the *System Preferences*) it cycles thru various codecs and "Macromedia Flash Player" is one of them... guess it doesn't access anymore. :o(

  • Problems loading Adobe Flash SWF file

    Our users are experienceing problems loading Adobe Flash SWF
    files.
    One example of a problem file is:
    http://www.adobe.com/enterprise/accessibility/popup_acr8_accessibility.html
    User traffic is flowing through a Cisco ASA firewall - these
    problems do not seem to occur from home networks or a Netscreen
    firewall. The Cisco ASA does NOT have http deep packet inspection
    turned on, and any traffic initiated by clients inside the firewall
    should be allowed. The symptom is that Internet Explorer will begin
    to download the video, but will hang at some point along the way
    (for this particular URL it hangs at about 7%). No error messages
    are displayed, but the video never displays on the screen either. I
    would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have run into this
    before, or if someone can explain what is different about this type
    of file from regular Adobe Flash, that might help figure out what
    the ASA is objecting to. The ASA does not appear to generate any
    log messages about denying this type of traffic either.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

    Thanks, but I use publish/export settings with GPU hardware acceleration and flash version 11.2 (and 11.8) but nothing happening.

  • Flash Lite - Automatic playback of SWF-files within MMS

    Dear flash communty,
    I've the problem that SWF-files doesn't play automatically when  I open the MMS I received. I tried to solve the problem with SMIL files, but it  seams that the Flash Lite player doesn't support these scripts. Does anyone of  you know anything else to solve the problem? Is there another way to implement  this feature?
    Greetings,
    Noctem

    We have been working with one of our customers on delivering
    an on line sales tool using the Adobe Connect environment. They for
    the usual legal reasons wished to use a sales aid they had already
    created. This was a flash based CD-rom with various flash movies
    initiated by rollovers and buttons.
    But there was two problems:
    1. The index would not work i.e. the menu page appeared but
    the subsequent movies and animations could not be found
    2. The click throughs and rollovers would not synchronizes,
    i.e. if the presenter moved forward through the presentation the
    participants did not.
    Both of these obviously make it useless.
    After over three weeks of R&D we (David Kwaw , Steve
    Grovenor and J ) have developed a bespoke piece of programing,
    based on Sync SWF
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobatconnect/articles/basic_syncswf_pt1.html
    That solves this issue, we have since refined the coding so
    that ONLY the presenter has control of the flash presentation,
    making it more like Adobe Presenter just ALOT more flexible and
    better looking.

  • Flash SWF file not playing as HTML snippet!?

    Any Flash gurus out there? I'm trying to get a SWF flash file to play as a HTML snippet but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm using Artotems Flash code within the snippet. The SWF file was encoded using Flash v9.0 and it plays on it's own when I open it the file directly from a web browser. However, when it's referenced from my website through iWeb nothing shows up!? Any ideas? Here's a screenshot of the code I'm using. Maybe you gurus can tell me if my syntax is incorrect?

    You're not using the full URL to the file.
    You have "/Media/knowledgereignssupreme.flv" in both instances where it should be...
    "http://www.websitename.com/Media/knowledgereignssupreme.flv"
    You can also open it with a simple iFrame code like at the bottom of this page......

  • Open 2 Web Browser and play a .swf File within each

    Hello,
    we are trying to implement a Screen Recording Functionality
    under Linux.
    The Recording will be done by vnc2swf. Then we have a .swf
    File with the Video.
    Now I want to play Back the recording within a Web Browser.
    That's shoudnt be the problem till now. But the difficult
    thing is that we have 2 Monitors connected to the Linux PC with
    their own display connection, therefore we get 2 .swf File each for
    each Screen.
    No I want to play back these two .swf Files each in one Web
    Browser on each Screen.
    Is this possible by programming this with Action Script 2/3 ?

  • Can Captivate 7's playback controls control Flash swf files?

    Hi folks,
    I have created a swf file using Adobe Flash and I have imported it as an animation slide in Captivate 7. I have turned on the playback controls to just have the play button and the progress bar. When I export the presentation, the playback controls do not work. The scrubber moves as the presentation is playing, but I can't pause the presentation. When I stop the scrubber or even move it left or right, it does not affect the presentation and it just keeps playing. Am I doing something wrong? I don't want to have to create a custom nav bar in Flash as it would just be easier to use Captivate's playback bar.

    I don't think it can be expained quickly as it can be very complicated. But...
    Select New Project/Widget in Flash and choose static widget. You need to be very adept in AS3 to actually get them to work.

  • Flash .swf file not appearing in browser when publishing from iWeb 3.02

    I have been working on a site for the last couple of months that i created in iWeb 2.0 and had successfully had small flash movies that I embedded via html snippets from code provided by numerous sources and youtube videos demonstrating how to get flash movies into one's site.
    The url is
    www.almafoods.com
    Today i upgraded to 3.02 and had to make a change to the home page. The domain opened up fine with all the HTML code and .swf on the page exactly as I had it in version 2.0
    When I now publish to a folder, first of all it doesn't copy over the .swf file unless I create a link to the file, but even when I upload all the directories to my ISP's remote server, the movie isn't not showing up in the browser. The html code file and .swf file are in their correct directories on my ISP's remote server
    I'm baffled as to what is going on here as its the exact same domain that worked perfectly in 2.0 and this has peed me off no end
    Does anyone have any suggestions or encountered the same problem in 3.02?
    Any advice would be very much appreciated

    Your .swf files are in the same folder as the widget-markup files.
    Keep your custom files OUTSIDE the folder with the sitename iWeb creates.
    iWeb will overwrite everything when it needs to do that, wiping out your custom files.
    Put the files in a separate folder and determine the link to these files.
    Read this : Using the iWeb HTML Snippet
    Besides that, to display these tiny pictures I wouldn't use Flash.

  • Can I create more than one URL link in a single Flash (SWF) file?

    I created a simple SWF slideshow in Flash with 5 slides. I was able to link one URL to the whole file by adding an alpha button.
    What I can't figure out is how to add a URL link to each slide. The SWF file i sused on a website and I would like to be able to click on a particular slide as it is playing to go the a site or page that applies to that slide.
    Is there a way or code I can use to do this??
    This is the code I am currently using for the button now.
    ja_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,mouseClick);
    function mouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void
                   var request = new URLRequest("http://www.jakeandamos.com/");
                    navigateToURL (request,"_blank");
    I am just learning this stuff so I can use your help, Thanks!

    You cannot duplicate instance names or function names, so you'll need to create unique names for each one that behaves differently.  So you can only have one function named "mouseClick"... if you want to have another function to link somewhere else you need to create a new name for that function ("mouseClick2" would work)
    There are alternate approaches, but for now this will be the easiest for you to deal with.
