Adding streaming video to flash 8

I have two videos, one is a Windows Media Video and the other
is a QuickTime video. They are both hosted on a streaming video
server. I am trying to stream them through Flash. I do not want to
create a FLV. I created a button to the two links but that doesn't
work. I tried to embed an video object but don't see anything for
wmv and qt. So my question is, how do you add streaming WMV and QT
to Flash?

Check the FLASH help files. I think you can only stream
FLV.

How can I stream video with Flash?

Hi guys!
I have a placeHolder MC in my main movie.
Within the placeHolder is an external swf containing an mpg
video.
How can I code the preloader of the external swf to stream
the mpg?
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
All the best,
Mark

if you mean stream as in streaming video, you need the
communication server.
if you mean preload the file, you can do so with various
components in flash.
loadMovie
Loader
MovieClipLoader
and more that escape my mind atm.

Multiple Live Streaming Video in flash?

Hello Everyone,
I have this project in mind which I want to create a video
montage of different live streaming videos from a few different
users with their webcam in different locations. There will be the
website which the participants will be able to view the live video
montage in real time. However, I am unsure of where to start with
(live video & server). Therefore I will be really thrilled if
someone knows an example similar to this or someone who can offer
me a lead in this topic!!
I have knowledge in flash and abit of actionscripting.
Much THANKS!!
jen

The 2-way video chat module example in the sample chapter
from "Learning Flash Media Server 3" should give you some ideas.
Obviously, you only want the 1-way (user to server) part of
that, as you'll be displaying the video montage I guess in a web
page as a set of regular flash streams.

It looks to be an O'Reilly book, so you may be able to get
the whole thing online, or get it delivered from O'Reilly or Amazon

Freezing on streaming video Adobe flash player 10

I am a newbie and have been experiencing major freezing when watching streaming video on Zap Live/Wildearth TV which uses Adobe Flash Player 10. I have upgraded the player and still getting freezing. Help please!

Odd. Revision3 works fine for me. In fact the opening shot of the video I tested is someone sitting at a desk with an Apple Macbook!
As you get the same error in all browsers, try uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Player:
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Streaming video to flash player with cfcontent

I am trying to stream (Progressive DL) h264 video in a quicktime container or (an flv for that matter) to a flash video player (Slidesho pro). Whilst I can get video as a downloaded file which plays correctly.
If I call the qt movie directly there is no problem, the player handles it.
<cfheader name="content-disposition" value="inline">
<cfheader name="content-type" value="video/quicktime">
<cfcontent type="video/quicktime" file="blah.mov">
What else do I need to put in this response to make it work ?
Does it need to be an octet stream ?
Finally I have NOT put in a content length as I understand that cfcontent usesand internal buffer so doesn't load the whole source file into memory first. (Thanks Ben Nadel's Blog)
REASON: Securing video.... Any answers out there please !!!!
Gus

Your headers might work only on Apple, because the Quicktime movie is native to Apple. In general, you would need an Apple plugin.
You should leave out the cfheader and cfcontent tag. Embed the movie using HTML's object and embed tags, much in the same way you would our own Adobe Flash movies.

Streaming Video in Flash Builder 4.5 AIR for Android

How do you do it? When you try to use the VideoDisplay that is built-in for AIR, the documentation pops up and says:
Adobe discourages using VideoDisplay when targeting profiles: mobileDevice.
What are you supposed to use?

can anyone confirm if this example is the best video method for mobile. needs some extra size and position script but does work without warnings!

Flash Streaming Video with Close Captioning

Hello,
I am trying to create streaming video using flash. I've
already created the video and encoded as a FLV file.
Two questions:
1. I am currently hosting my streaming video on
Playstream.com. How do I incorporate this video such that when a
user views the content he/she will see a buffer bar loading as the
video plays? A good example is on YouTube.com.
2. I've aready created my close caption file and have it in
xml format. How do I sync my close captioned file with the flash
video?
Thanks in advance.
mdawg

I don't know too much about how to capture both video and
aplication monitoring moves at the same time.
I do however want to warn you about a possible pitfall of
making the presenter's video by recording with a digital cammera in
front of a PC or TV monitor screen.
The video from a monitor screen, taken with a digital camera
comes out full of glitches and flashes. This is present the video
in the monitor, and those used by the recording digital camera to
capture the scenes. It's a synchronization problem and makes the
video very unconfortable to watch.
A wrokaround for this requires expensive and hard to come by
equipment. To work around this, I would suggest to record a video
of the presenter first. Have him or her read the script while
standing or sitting in front of a fixed colored background. This
helps to avoid distractions to the viewer.
Review, edit and decide how you like the presentation video
first. Create the video file, and then you can play it in a 2x2
window on your PC monitor.
Here is where my expertise stops.
I don't know how or if you can then record the screen while
manipulating and recording your application's CAPTIVATE file. Maybe
it's possible to capture both windows at the same time side by
side, but my point is that you need to avoid recording with a
digital camera from a video monitor, it just doesn't look good.
Hope this helps a little.

What is the best flash app for an S3 for streaming video?

What is the best flash app for an S3 for streaming video?

Flash Player 11, but you have to sideload if you lost it.
http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2012/06/flash-player-and-android-update.html
Adobe stopped support a while ago for it. They are replacing Flash Player with Air. WatchESPN for example uses Air.

FYI, Resources for learning to use video in Flash Pro

For those wanting to get started adding video to their Flash Pro work, I wanted to highlight a couple of quality video tutorials that folks may not know about.
Todd Perkins does a nice job of covering the basic steps for adding a video to Flash. This is a good place to go first:
Getting Started: Working with Video
Lisa Larson-Kelly covers a lot of ground in her Flash 411 show. This video is all about codecs, encoding, progressive vs. streaming, and choices for playing back video in Flash Player
Flash Video Crash Course
Of course there’s also the Video Learning Guide on DevNet and the Help too.

> I see mention above of Lynda.com, but either missed Total Training, or perhaps they have merged?
I didn't mention Lynda.com.
And, no, Total Training and Lynda.com certainly haven't merged.
Total Training has some good Premiere Pro stuff, but it's not the first place that I'd point someone for Premiere Pro.

Streaming video in FlashLite BREW wanted!

Does anybody can provide a sample code for streaming video in
Flash lite Brew phones, thanks!

You can't "stream" (stream in a literal sense—i.e. FLV
streaming through a streaming server) video using Flash Lite. If
you are interested in playing a video (like a .3GP) via Flash Lite,
refer to the Flash Lite 2.0 SDK from Adobe. The resturant sample
has code to play a video. It should work the same on BREW.

Video Pixelation occurs while recording the video using flash player

Hello,
I am recording the video using flash player 9 ( using the
flash media server 2.0 on the back end). Everything used to work
fine in the past. The quality of the flv video was good. Now
suddently, I have started seeing the pixelation in the recorded
video (very poor video quality). Nothing has been changed in the
code. However on the server side, I am not very sure if there is
any windows update has taken place and have caused the problem with
the codec on server.
However my understanding is that when we record the video
then flash player use its own codec not the flash media server.
Can any one help me on how I can get rid of pixelation
issues?
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards
Pradeep

Hello Melissa,
I might not be understanding the question right, but if you
are using Flash
Player 6, and the Flash Player 6 video player component, you
can resize the
video by resizing the component on the stage (just drag and
make it larger).
Let me know if that works for you.

List of devices that support streaming video?

Does anyone know of a list that details which devices support
streaming video under Flash Lite 2, and ideally what codecs they
support?
I was excited to see Flash Lite 2.1 support for Windows
Mobile, but my T-Mobile SDA doesn't support streaming video through
FL2.

I have a related issue with my T3030 system. The loudspeakers still work fine but the remote volume control cable has a problem, probably a broken lead or faulty contact as in the beginning the sound went away on and off and by twiggling the cable it came back. Now it's completely dead but the green LED still comes on. I went to several CL shops and nobody could help me except to offer me buy a new system but I don't want to do that! So does anyone if I can order the volume control cable separately? Maybe the newer system such as the T300 have the same cable?
Thank you
Johan

Airport express and choppy streaming video

I am running AX with a DHCP router from my service provider. Up until recently I watched streaming video (Adobe Flash Player) with no problems. Now the video seems to stutter and have to rebuffer often and it seems to happen when Airport is "Looking for new Networks". This means the video stutters every 30 seconds or so. Is there any way to avoid this? My connection does not actually drop, it's just the streaming video that gets broken up.
So far I have tried to
manually stick to one channel
reset the airport express to factory settings (which actually helped a bit; stutters from every 10 seconds to every 30 seconds)
fiddled with interference robustness
Any suggestions?
AC

I'm not sure of the exact length restriction, but I have used a 100' cable with my AirPort Express Base Station (AX) to connect to the stereo and it worked just fine.

My fan is extremely loud when i stream videos...

my fan is extremely loud when i stream videos...is this normal? My laptop is only a month old

It isn't uncommon that your fan should run when streaming videos, especially flash.
Is you laptop properly ventilated ? ----> If it's resting on the bed, cushion, carpet or some other soft surface that could be blocking the vents, or which doesn't allow heat to dissipate, your laptop will heat up more than usual, and hence the fan will have to run faster.
Is your laptop on a cool surface that is ventilated? (like a wooden table)?
Are you running Lion? Ever since I upgraded to Lion my fan is almost always running, video or not.
