Video playing on HTML page without player?
I have seen a few examples (none of which I have a link for)
of flash
video that plays on a HTML page that is not confined to a
flash player.
So the video of a person is shot against a green screen and
the
background is later keyed out and the the video plays on the
page.
Does anyone know how this is done?
Thanks.
Either you have a look at the book I wrote:

or this article

How to embed a swf video into an html page?
I am haing trouble embedding my swf video into my html page. Here is my code:
<embed height="340" width="549" src="flashvideos/test.swf" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=C:/Users/RogerPa1/Documents/Visual Studio 2008/WebSites/WebSite1/Products/Create/flashvideos&streamName=C:\Users\RogerPa1\Docum ents\Visual Studio 2008\WebSites\WebSite1\Products\Create\flashvideos\Robotics&autoPlay=true&autoRew ind=false"></embed>
When I run the page the place where the flash player should be is blank. But if I right click I can select settings so the flash player is there. I'm using absolute urls for the flashvars because I read in a forum that that's what you're supposed to do. Anyway I am a little frustrated that the video won't play. I tried creating a video with no skin and the same problem occurs.
Thank You

Flash Video Play in a page like Youtube
Hello,
I post a lot of videos on my blog and always have to have
people click on a link that opens a new window to play my flash
videos. i do this because if i were to place multiple flash videos
onto a page, they would all immediately start downloading. This web
site does what I am looking for, (
http://blog.elysiumproductions.com/)
it has a jpeg as a placeholder on an html page, and then when you
click it, the flash video begins downloading. Do you know some
workflow to make this, or is there a service. The site i mentioned
says it uses click2start.net, but that site doesn't have anything
on it. This would be really helpful.
ThanksHi,
I did not use the streaming video before, but I guess there
must be an option Flash or in AS that start downloading when the
user click the playback button or some thing. Did you try to seach
on google for answer? -
Fullscreen Video in an HTML Page
Hello,
I am placing my flash catalyst .swf file into dreamweaver to complete a site. However, the swf contains a video that I would like people to view fullscreen (if they so please). The problem occurs when you toggle the fullscreen on from the video player in the final html based site. The video is cut off from the edges of the div tag that I placed the flash catalyst swf in. The full screen works great when testing the site in the with the html flash catalyst publishes for you in the deploy to web folder, but when put into dreamweaver it the fullscreen is cut off by the edges of the swf file dimensions.
Does anybody know how to have the video player from flash catalyst take over the entire screen when it is embedded in a html document?
Thanks so much,
RussellYes, I believe I did. Take the html page that Flash Catalyst publish for you (the one titled "Main.html") and copy that source code over to Dreamweaver. So all the content my site, is from flash catalyst, so this was a solution for me. But you may want to have your .swf from catalyst as a component of your website. In that case, I don't know if this would be a solution.
Hope this helps,

Can't get FLV to play in HTML page...
Hi,
I dragged the FLVPlayback to the stage and set the source to my FLV file name and set the skin to one of the options.
My HTML page calls upon the published SWF file. Do I need to name the additional SWF file to the same name as my skin?
How do you publish the skin file also?
I'm thinking this issue lies with the dimensions of the movie. The FLV says it is 640 x 480. So I went in and modified the Flash document to the same.
Do I need to use the Transform tool and make the actual player to these proportions so it fills the stage? - here is where the confusion lies...or is it 'smart' enough to conform. My settings are the default of 'maintain aspect ratio'.
Please help!
Thank you.As mentioned earlier, most likely a pathing problem... but just a slight correction. If you just cannot figure out the pathing issue, put all your files in the same folder as the WEB PAGE, not the .fla, since you don't need to upload that file anyway.
But, to dispell the myth that all the files need to be in the same directory... just not true. You can put your Flash related stuff in whatever folders you want as long as you realize that once you place your Flash .swf on a Web page, you are in effect, removing that .swf from it's physical location and moving it to the same folder as the Web page. So all files called by that .swf (skins, videos, xml) must be called relative to the Web page location, NOT the physical location of the .swf.
From an old post:
Pathing issues
Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do not have to be in the root. But if sticking them in there worked, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
Just remember that paths become relative to the Web page on which those Flash files are used. So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, etc), the path used inside the .swf to the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final locations and you can put the files wherever you want.

Flash plays before html page is completely loaded
A flash intro for a website's homepage starts to play before
the html page
elements are completely loaded and visible. The html page is
not
complicated so it would seem the flash is even slowing down
the loading of
the html and it looks bad, but not terrible. Is there a way
to, like,
prioritize the loading of the page elements?Sorry, I didn't design the HTML page but I'm sure it was
tested in a few
different browsers. I'm not sure if it happened on all or
some. The sites
already live so the designer did not think it was a problem.
Just thought
there may be a stacking order or something that would load
the background
before the Flash starts playing. Thanks for your help. -
Flash not playing on html page after template is altered
Hi,
Can anyone help. If i alter anything on a template none of the .swf files on pages based on that template will work when previewed in the browser.
I am using DW CS3.
Anyone any ideasGood day,
This issue can be considered as a limitation at some point because Dreamweaver lacked the ability to "auto-update", although it was not really the best practice to include Flash contents in a DW template.
There is a workaround though. You may need to edit the template (.dwt) itself and work in Code View.
While in Code View, use the Find and Replace (Edit > Find and Replace) feature so it will be easier for you to find what you are looking for.
In the Find and Replace window, choose Current Document as value for Find in, and Source Code as Search.
In the Find input field, type --> 'src' (including the single quotes) and click on Find Next.
Once you found 'src', pay attention to the text next to it enclosed in single quotes. The value in the single quotes is the path of where the Flash file is saved. try to remove ../ if you happen to see it. (do this if the Flash file is located in the same folder where the HTML page which uses it is saved)
Using Find and Replace again, this time, try to search for 'movie' (including single quotes). You'll see again the text next to it which is the same value as what you have searched before. Do the same thing, try removing ../. (do this if the Flash file is located in the same folder where the HTML page which uses it is saved)
Save the DW template file and try to preview the pages again in the browser.
I hope this helps.

Christine R.

Why won't videos play on some pages?
On some pages I get the flash player and can hear but get no video content.
I have a similar problem. More info for my case. ...
iOS 5.1.1, orig iPad.
Play button changes when touched, but does not start playing.
MLB.com, YouTube, and other magazine-style sites are affected.
This is NOT the Flash video problem. Those still load with the play button x-Ed out.
Some videos, e. g. Facebook ones, play, sometimes.
The problem started for me about two weeks ago.
I tried to fix by a full power down and restart. That didn't help.
I saw on another thread to try "reset". I'll try that next. -
Hi there,
I have a contact page created in Dreamweaver and have created an email link to launch Outlook when clicked on. However, all the links in my design have been set a certain way, i.e. white text knocked out of darker background. My email link however, is on white background so you can't see it against the white. I want to go in and simply change the color property of the email link without changing the other link colours on the page. I've tried but without luck. Is this possible to do?
Thanks in advance for any help!Hello and thank you for your answer. I'm still a little confuse though.
My existing HTML looks like this:
<p><a href="[email protected]">[email protected]</a><br />
My link preferences are for the who page and are at the top and look like this:
a:link {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
color: #FFFFFF;
a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
color: #CCCCCC;
a:active {
text-decoration: none;
color: #CCCCCC;
.style2 {font-size: 14.5px}
.style3 {color: #FFFFFF}
Where exactly should I insert the new link ID that you suggested <a id="special_colors" href="url...">link text</a>
Also, where exactly should I place the following in relation to the CSS document
a#special_colors:link {color: red;}
> a#special_colors:hover {color: green;}
Sorry but this is all quite new to me. Thank you for your patience and help. -

Javascript to open a new html page without the various tools bar
Where can I find a javascript that I could that would to the
following.
I will put a button (text button) "QUIT".
I want to see a dialog box asking the following.
Are you sure you want to quit this training module? You can
restart the module at anytime by clicking on the restart button.
Yes (I go to the URL of the web page hosting the captivate)
or No (button) I go back to the beginning of the captivate
file (Slide 1).
Can we also have a javascript in one captivate file
for example main.swf (who has 10 slide) and have a button
that open another captivate swf (5 slides) and have it go to a
specific slide (for xample the slide 3).
i know that with Flash it is possible when you load an
external file. But with Captivate I am a little bit confused on how
to achieve the same results with Javascript.
The only javascript that I know of is
javascript:window.close().Here is some documentation on the "window.open()" method:
http://www.javascript-coder.com/window-popup/javascript-window-open.phtml
You'll find options for removing toolbars and setting
size/position. -

Hello, I'm trying to embed a quicktime video on page, but when I open it with Safari on iPad doesn't play.
Do I need to add some video beyond the tags?
Thanks.You can use html5 <video> tag. It allows web developers to add videos into a web page without any special plugins.
The sample code for HTML5 video looks like this:
1
2
3
4
5
<video width="320" height="240" controls autoplay poster="video.jpg">
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
You can also use desktop software. I have used kvisoft flip book maker pro software to embed video in html. It is very easy to use. Anyone can use it without programming skills! -
